Since I rarely go out on the town nowadays, the "hipster date night" section in my closet is slim pickings. Normally I would just go with a flouncy dress and be done with it, but I wanted to look a tad sexy this night as to remind my husband what a sweet deal he got. That said, trying to locate that perfect not to girlie, not to sexy outfit resulted in a wardrobe tornado that left the contents of my closest strewn all across the floor, my bed, the dresser, and poor puppy Oliver. It wasn't until I reached into the depths of the third world that I came across these lacy shorts from Oasap that time (or rather my limited brain space) forgot. Upon first glance, I immediately held up the holy grail of shorts and exclaimed "Watson, I've find it." These shorts saved me from another hour or so of rummaging through my clothes and for that I must thank them. Thank you shorts for being short enough to show off my legs but not so short that my butt cheeks make a surprise public appearance, thank you shorts for being trendy without looking like you are trying too hard, and lastly thank you shorts for having an elastic waistband that gently cuddled my food baby without the slightest judgment. You're the best pair of shorts a gal could ask for.

Sorry I'm late, Amber Girly Bird. I actually stopped by an hour ago but needed to run off and take three cold showers before I could think of something to write. I join you in thanking your lacy shorts. I thank them wholeheartedly. I thank them profusely. I thank them a thousand times. I'm sure your lucky husband thanked them, too. For you to "look a tad sexy" is quite impossible because you are light years beyond. I hope you and Kevin and Oliver are having a safe and happy holiday weekend, dear friend! See you soon!
ReplyDeleteThose shorts look awesome...and you look pretty foxy in them!

i love shorts, or any bottoms for that matter, that cradle a food baby like it's their own. i don't know why i didn't get a pair of lace shorts when i first started coveting them back in april. hopefully they'll still be cool next summer so i can finally buy a pair!
ReplyDeleteHello, hottie–note to self, must remind John of his own sweet deal! And if I could just borrow that from your closet...
ReplyDeleteLove Oasap! And those shorts are super cute!
ReplyDeleteAs nice as these shorts are, they are overshadowed by your legs that are "as long as a late breakfast" as my mother would say. I'm sure Kevin appreciates the effort you make, you look so pretty, lacy shorts or not!

Look at you looking all British and shit! I love this outfit! It's all frilly and edgy at the same time. With maybe even a little grunge thrown in for good measure! I salute you and your fabulous shorts!
ReplyDeleteSuper lovely - adore the lace scallop shorts and denim jacket. xA
ReplyDeleteDamn girl, you look gooooooood! I seriously have been scouring the web for shorts exactly like that! Are they a OS though at oasap? I get nervous about OS clothing. Sometimes it fits; other times it looks like I'm a walking poster child for weight watchers. Like, "look at all these pounds I've shed!" Horrible.
ReplyDeleteP.s. I am sooo jonesin for a jean jacket as well. I keep seeing them everywhere and have fashion envy.
Love that second pose, and the outfit of course. Lookin good girl! I love clothes that support the "food baby"!
ReplyDeleteGoodness those are beyond adorable. Love the dainty details!
ReplyDeletegreat date night pick! and totally adoring those shorts. awesome you have them just randomly somewhere in your closet to find ;-) love when that happens!
ReplyDelete~ * ♥ * ~
ReplyDeleteI love the layered look of the lace, and how awesome is it to find a great item of clothing that you've forgotten about? I don't often do that with clothes, but I am always rediscovering super shoes that I forget to wear... > <

Dear Amber,
ReplyDeletePlease stop tempting me with adorable online shops full of clothing I want to buy when it is completely impractical for me to buy non-maternity clothing at this particular juncture.
Love,

P.S. Belly pictures are up (finally!) ;-)
You look adorable and the shorts are the icing
ReplyDeletei love your posts...you are so funny! and i love these shorts, they definitely look great and they sound even better!
ReplyDeleteOH EM GEE AMBER HOT MAMA. You look scorching! It's funny you mention looking hot, because I've recently been thinking that I should tone down my granny aesthetic a bit down and remind my husband I'm younger than he is. LOVE the shorts. especially the elastic waist ;) Cuddling food? yes.
