Anyone else feel like the end of summer is beginning to close in on us? You can’t make me buy sweaters and boots just yet, I simply refuse. In light of us somehow already being midway through August, I have been taking FULL advantage of restaurants with patios, outdoor adventures, and air-conditioned movie theaters this past week. I am savoring every last minute of summer I can get and I am loving it. I’m even hosting a pizza and sangria party in my backyard this weekend because we’ve had such wonderful warm nights.

HOT CHILD IN THE CITY

What’s been interesting for me lately, in terms of dressing for summer, has been finding a new love and appreciation for denim shorts. Full disclosure, I actually really don’t love denim shorts. I’ve always thought they weren’t flattering on me, they made me feel weird and blobby when I’d sit down, and they frankly weren’t all THAT comfortable. But for some reason I have discovered a new found tolerance, we’ll call it, for certain denim shorts. Despite being 100% cotton and thus possessing zero stretch, I absolutely love these black, vintage-y, button up denim shorts from Anine Bing. I’ve noticed that button up (down?) denim has been a big trend this summer and for whatever reason I took it upon myself to give it a fair go.

The hunt and struggle for the perfect pair of denim shorts is real people, I am still looking for *THE ONE(S)* but in the meantime at least I’ve dipped my toes in the water. What are your favorite denim shorts you’ve been wearing this Summer? Tell me where you got ’em!
