How I Style It: Shorts

August 3, 2016

Happy Wednesday and welcome to this month’s installment of How I Style It!  I cannot believe that August is already here, although I do have to share that I’m super excited about all the fresh and colorful school and office supplies that are showing up everywhere. #TypeAProblems

This is also the first post featuring pictures from my new camera {ahhh hopefully I’ll remember to share more about this development once I get settled into using it & life isn’t as crazy} so bear with me as I get acclimated.

What Nicole Wore: Elephant Shorts

I hadn’t gotten a chance to wear this pave ring set from Charming Charlie until this past weekend and it is safe to say that I’m in love. At only $10, it’s a complete steal too; I love that you can wear the rings separately or altogether depending on what level of accessorizing you’re going for.

What Nicole Wore: Elephant Shorts

As soon as we decided to go with shorts for this month’s blog hop, I knew I wanted to style these elephant ones.  I’ve worn them quite a few times since I ordered them, but hadn’t had a chance to style them on the blog yet.  They have a 4″ inseam which I love; I’m at the stage of my life where I don’t want to wear booty shorts but also have no desire to wear bermuda shorts so this is a good compromise for me.  I paired these whimsical shorts with this lightweight off the shoulder top.  The bell sleeves and pom poms are super on trend for summer and like I said, it’s lightweight so wearing it doesn’t make me want to lie my entire body over an air conditioning unit.

      I got the Canon PowerShot G5X; I was really leaning towards a DSLR prior to going to the store but this one sold me because it has the macro capability without all of the learning of a DSLR!
