I chickened out this weekend, but I purchased a big taffeta mermaid skirt to wear to a wedding. I wanted to wear a white tank with it and a huge Sorrelli necklace. I ended up with a black silk tank for fear I'd be getting stares and whispers all evening, but it would have been sweet. Anyway, enough of my juxtaposition rant; see for yourself:

Thoughts on the denim shorts and tights trend? I wonder if it will still be around again this fall:
I think this outfit is so chic! These are classic pieces that almost everyone has one or all of them in their wardrobe.

So cute!
