Sophisticated Scallops

Who doesn't love some simple yet superb shorts! One of the most beloved types of shorts among many this summer have been the scalloped designs. While many celebrities have been seen sporting these spunky shorts, lots of average women have fallen in love with the same kinds. Buy a pair before summer is gone and wear them into fall with tights. 

Olivia Palermo knows how to work it in these fun shorts. She opts for the bright floral printed pair while mixing together a floral top, leopard flats and a wicker handbag. Olivia tops it off with cat sunnies and a classic ponytail.

Anne Hathaway flaunts these cute blue scallops with white polka dots while taking her dog for a walk in the city. She works together a gray tee and black flats while completing her ensemble with a simple necklace and black stylish sunnies.

All smiles and gorgeous as ever, Kate Bosworth looks radiant in her super chic nude colored shorts. Kate rocks a shimmer blush colored top and tan sandals to complement the nude shorts. She goes for beach waves and a small, matching shoulder bag which supplies a calm and relaxed look. 

Beach Bound

As I pack for my destination this evening, I seriously consider what to pack into my suitcase. I'll be gone for only a few days, yet it still seems like a nightmare and potentially a bigger one than usual. Possibly because I am using a slightly smaller (who are we kidding, MUCH smaller) suitcase and I feel the need to have more options just in case I am in dire need of some back up assistance. Like I mentioned in a previous post "'Cause Baby You're A Firework", my fashion is like an ever lasting mood right, constantly changing. A girl needs options, hello! While I finish what seems like an impossible and unsolved mystery on how to fit everything I practically own into a tiny piece of luggage, I leave you with these outstanding summer vacation must haves.
