Dressy shorts are a wonderful thing. They take what would be a super casual look and give it a little something special that elevates the outfit to another level. I love the high waist fit, thick silky fabric and floral print on this pair, and a ruffle periwinkle shirt I've had for 7-8 years was the perfect match! (I love it when my pack rat tendencies pay off.) I would wear this look sightseeing on vacation, for errands or any casual occasion here in Florida. Do you wear dressy shorts?
