paperbag



tank: kohls, shorts: f21, boots: seychelles, necklace: shop in korea

i've been on the hunt for perfect paperbag waist shorts for awhile now.. lucky for me as i was perusing through my local f21, and here were these shorts just hanging on a rack all by their lonesome and just my size with all my requirements: khaki.. my fave neutral, light linen.. great for the heat.. and a good length.. and work appropriate for me. i like so much.

breaking my shopping ban was totally worth it. i want to wear them everyday.

  14. Cute ensemble! That tank reminds me of a more affordable version of Alexander Wang, and it's just another reason I love Kohls. I always shop them through Ebates.com because I get cash back on my purchases.
