apricot’s closet: pleated shorts.
In the middle of my shorts crisis, I found the perfect pair of linen pleated shorts at Target (which I’ve shamefully been to 5 times in the last week). These shorts are adorable; they’re very light & flimsy, but unfortunately, they wrinkle way too easy. (I loathe ironing, so this should be interesting…)
I first paired the shorts with my black American Apparel deep-v shirt (see below) but thought it too casual for my initial mood. I decided to change, & break out my sheer lace top, which I hadn’t worn in a while. I was more pleased with that ensemble than the other, & will most likely wear this again soon.
pleated shorts, sheer lace top & black undershirt, from Target; shoes (the closet to heels I’ll ever get), from Ross; necklace, from my mother’s jewelry box.

@ sandy: you can! :] Only if you let me raid yours…
@ kate: thanks. :] they’re not too shabby, although I’d rather have denim cutoffs. Beggars can’t be choosey, I suppose.
@ sharon rose: thank you. :]

@ Traci Anne: thank you, love! :]
@ Meg: Yes, I would have to agree… but, at the same time, 5 trips to Target is a little much. & a little pathetic. ;/
@ katelin: Aw, you would? I definitely think it would look hot on you! ;]
@ ashely: thanks!
