Outfits Not Just Clothes

Got out and about in the city here recently. We met up with some fully vaxxed friends at the Allegheny Overlook and got these shots on the walkway down to the river walk. There was a bit of brisk in the air this evening so I draped a white denim jacket over my shoulders, grabbed my fanny pack, and headed out for some very much needed socializing.  jacket /blouse-J.Crew(similar blouse here ), shorts / bag -Everlane, sunnies- Diff Eyewear , necklace- Ana Luisa , shoes- Marc Fisher There's a bit of a high-and-low mix going on with this OOTD. There's this silk blouse paired with denim, a high-waisted suiting short with a fanny pack, and in the background is beautiful greenery and road signs! I really love this look for a summer evening. It's comfortable, laidback, but still chic and fresh.

I originally got this shirt for my husband so we could have a family flamingo moment, but I couldn't resist "borrowing from the boys" and tying this black and pink shirt up for a masculine, yet retro feeling outfit. If you look at the detail pics of the necklace and collar, you'll see pink cocktails with the flamingos, making this the prefect shirt for some outdoor day drinking!

For this #funshortsfriday post I styled them with a muscle tee for an eclectic mix of sporty meets cocktail chic. And speaking of cocktails,  what better way to start the weekend than with champagne like the t-shirt says. 

Mr. Keller was very excited about these shorts. We had at least five more shots of just shorts. A rare smile. Mr. Keller ALWAYS tries to make me laugh by saying silly things. This simle came from him just shouting out "POOP!" He's so odd... blouse-Mikkat Market(similar here ), shorts-Anthropologie(similar here ), heels-Zara(kind of similar here ), necklace-Bauble Bar(similar here ), bag-vintage/gifted It is all about the shorts here. Believe it or not, I don't have a ton of occasions to bust out a frilly cocktail short, but when I do I go all out and try to make the most out of it with accessories. One could argue such a short short and such a high heel may be a bit "ho-ish" however, since the blouse covers a lot and had a slightly masculine feel it allows for a nice balance.  Also, the statement necklace and posh clutch steer me clear from "ho-ville." "Steer Me Clear from Ho-ville" I may have found ...
