I'm wearing shorts!

Shirt: Subdued Firenze Denim shorts: Rock & Republic Tights: Capezio Knee socks, scarf: Nordstrom Silver and black cuff: unknown (aka my mom's closet) Silver bracelets: New Look (London) Boots: Chinese Laundry

I took a big leap in terms of my outfit today - I wore a pair of shorts in February. I'll often see the shorts + tights combo in magazines, online, other blogs, etc. but don't see the combo much on campus. I decided to give it a shot! I "winter-fied" the outfit with the tights, knee socks, boots, and a scarf. I also wore gloves and a hip-length, black pea coat (not pictured). It actually ended up being too warm! Go figure.

But really, shorts can't be that summery because of the length - people wear miniskirts with tights/leggings/boots all the time! If you're weary about shorts in the winter, I urge you to go for it! Dark denim or thick fabrics (leather, tweed, khaki) are great choices this time of year!

Oh and last night Gonzaga beat rival team St. Mary's! So proud to be a Zag.
