Electric Shorts

10 June 2009












I stumbled upon these bad boys while at goodwill the other day! I hardly hardly ever wear shorts so when I come across a pair that I like, it is quite a treat. Expect many more vintage pieces on my blog soon. I have been having the best luck on numerous thrifting trips in the past week or so. Namely a studded dress and four (yes four) purses.

PS: Like my orange nails? I found a place that paints them for only five bucks. The nail color called "Tasmanian Devil Made Me Do It" by OPI.


And if you have not yet, enter to win an Elizabeth and James tee here !

wearing: thrifted shorts, random white tee, target boulder hat.
