As a women, I want to look pulled together and nice when I go out. But I am 38, and I am having more shopping trouble than ever. I don't want to look like I am dressing too young, but I want to look like I am in this decade. One of my favorite shows is "What Not To Wear." Love that show! It really is not about just the clothes. It's much more - how you feel about yourself. It's about rebuilding women's self confidence. I think I need to nominate myself for the show. I know I would LOVE it.
Anyway, I have bought several things lately, but have not worn them. I bought these adorable shorts from Old Navy. They are cute and were not expensive at all. But I don't know if they are too short. I would wear a 3/4 sleeve shirt with them to try and balance them out. But I live in a small town, and I don't want people talking about my short - shorts! Ha! I am short - only 5'2 - so maybe I could get away with them. I tried them on and did the "finger -tip" test. That's what we do at school. They did pass. The shorts fell to my fingertips. Ha! I think before I take them back I will try them on for Eric and see if he makes a comment. No comment = good. What do you think?
I also read several fashion blogs that shop at Anthropologie. I love their clothes, but the prices are too much for me. That being said, I decided to order one top and just see. Of course, it was packaged nicely. But I don't know if it's worth the price. It also fit weird on me. So I guess I will send it back. Oh well, I wanted to try.
The top is beautiful and would go with a lot. I just think maybe it's too expensive to keep. So now since I am kid free today, I am off to see what I can find for fall. Since I am a teacher, I usually slack off on dressing in the summer. Wish me luck!

I love to watch What Not to Wear too. I would love to have a shopping spree and someone to help me put together outfits.
I think the shorts are cute and don't look too short. Old Navy is one of my favorite stores. We also have a great Gap outlet! Have fun shopping!
Those shorts are cute! I saw those at Old Navy the other day. I am loving the "longer" shorts that are in style now. This is the first summer in about 7 or 8 years that I've worn shorts. I used to be capris only but I like these new styles.
I love those green and white polka dot shorts! So cute! I just ordered a couple of shirts and a cardigan from Old Navy. Love them!
I love What Not to Wear too!
