Bermuda

Bermuda shorts or some call them walking/city shorts are simply shorts that are a longer length hitting right above the knee. I like them for their modesty and comfort. I also find them to be sliming!

Of course for they're great for weekends with a tank or tee but in a dressier fabric/design, they can certainly be styled for casual Friday in the office. Depending on your office environment of course. Think of them as a pencil skirt but cut down the middle to make legs. Add a fun blouse, blazer and pumps to jazz it up. When wearing a casual piece it's important your pairings and accessories are sophisticated.

This printed top with beaded & neon accents at the neckline keep it modern and fun.

Ditch the jacket for happy hour and replace the pumps for wedges for a chic weekend look.

Snakin Day to Night

I'm bringing a lot of snake print into my closet this season. I love animal prints, and snake is sophisticated and edgy.

I've shared my love of local boutiques before but may I remind you that shopping local businesses supports your community and also makes for interesting 'one of a kind' finds!

One of my favorite boutiques is Sovella's. The owner Mallory is a gem with her sweet personality and eye for all things pretty. I saw this tank in her store and instantly knew I had to have it and mentally was going through all the way's I'd style it. The soft colors: green, grey, ivory, and taupe go with everything! You could pair it with any neutral.

Follow on Instagram for first looks @sovellasboutique ... She Ships!

I'm showing you two looks, one for day/work and another for evening/weekend. It's as simple as ditching the jacket and opting for jeans.

I kept both these palettes dark but make no mistake this tank is going right on a pair of white skinny jeans after Easter!
