{how to wear it} Zara Floral Shorts

First of all, I want to say Happy 21st Birthday to my brother!! (not that he reads my blog) He makes me feel so old, we're only 3 years apart but thinking about the fact that I have 21 and (almost) 16 year old brothers is depressing!

Anywayyyy, ever since I bought these amazing Zara Floral print shorts I've been dreaming up ways to wear them. The problem is I don't have any of the pieces to do it! I've been out shopping a few times but never seem to find the exact pieces I want.  So today I decided to make my dream outfit, this is one of the ways I'd love to wear them. I went all out with a Mary Katrantzou top, so gorgeous! But I am most likely going to wear it more simply and ease into print mixing. I also tried to use the accessories to pull out some of the colors in the prints, like the Miu Miu heels that I've been obsessed with for months, such a pretty color!

  4. I'm not wild about the shirt with the shorts, as it's a bit too much print for me, but I LOVE everything else you've paired with the shorts :-)

  13. I wouldn't recommend wearing the floral shorts with the floral blazer. that's going to be too much!
    I would wear either one and wear with a solid color.
    Love love love the shorts

  19. You should go simple, with a loose silky blouse tucked in and some heels - I think that would look pretty stunner! :)
