Cheers to Friday!!!

I wanted to share a new outfit with a fun pair of shorts for summer.
Stripes + Florals are two of my favorite trends for Spring and Summer, so I decided to combine them into one look!  These shorts can easily be dressed up, and they definitely make more of a statement than just your regular pair of shorts.  I also love that you can tie the bow off to the side of in the center and give it an entirely different look.
The pearl studs are my new go-to earring for every day.  They feel fancier than my tiny gold studs and I get compliments on them every day!   Also, my brown leather clutch (that comes with a chain to make it a cross-body bag) is on sale for 50% off!

necklace is super old and from a random website about 9 years ago – I always get asked so I’m trying to find the name! Moon & Lola has great similar options (and a million places now really!) 

I am going to City Winery tonight with friends to see Heather McDonald!
I have never been to City Winery so I am excited about that, and I have also listened to Heather’s podcast for a long time so I’m looking forward to her stand up!

Speaking of Heather McDonald, Kate Casey posted this image in the Heather McDonald “Juicy Scoop”  Facebook group and I laughed so hard.
