You may not believe me after seeing this post, but I wouldn’t be caught wearing shorts of any kind as recently as a few years ago.  I was always so self-conscious of my legs and thought they were too big so I would talk myself out of wearing them every time I would get my nerve up.  As I’ve gotten older I realized how silly I was being and that all of me is beautiful, so shorts I’m here for you!

So since I had a perfectly good pair of shorts already available in my closet I thought these were a great choice for the summer.  I picked these up awhile ago at H&M because I loved the color and the fact they were brown faux suede gave them a more expensive look and the quality of the material was good.  Now if you know me you know that I love pockets, which sold me on these shorts and they also have a drawstring in the front.  I decided to pair them with a light weight black top and black tie up booties.

I personally was going for a more street style look because I think shorts are a great option if you want to switch your look up a bit.  They’re good for a date night to the movies or an outdoor party or get together with friends.  Of course if heels aren’t your thing try a fancy pair of slide on mules with some pretty embroidery or a some jeweled sandals to keep the look chic.  I guess you could say I have a new love for shorts!
