What I Wore (to a recital)


Last night I had a recital to attend.

The cutest little ballerina ever ~ my niece ~ was taking the stage.

Usually, when I head to events like this I dress for winter.  Auditoriums are always so cold.

But Missouri is finally feeling like summer.  So since it was a 90 degree day, I decided to brave the potentially Arctic air and wear shorts.........


flats //  shirt  //  scarf  (Express ~ sold out)  //  shorts (similar) 

I threw on the scarf at the last minute in an attempt to pattern mix (and be warm).

Black gingham with a black tribal scarf:  yes or no?

I guess it's too late now.

At least the auditorium was dark. 








Linking up with The Pleated Poppy,

  15. Cute!! I think they work great together. I love the shorts.

    And I totally know what you mean about dressing for winter even though it's summer. A/C is always cranked SO high indoors at places here, because it's so dang hot outside. I pretty much carry a cardigan everywhere.
