You know I’m a dress girl through and through. But when this season of the year rolls through, with beautiful weather and sunny days spent with lots of outdoor time with my kids, shorts become my savior! It’s much easier to run after my three little ones without worrying if my dress is floating up and giving the whole neighborhood a little show. LOL. Not to mention the fact that a toddler with the occasional tantrum is not handled as expertly by a Mom wearing a dress. At least in my experience! I’d liken it to wrestling a bear. So, shorts it is! I’ve shared shorts roundups before in varying categories, but today I wanted to share some of my favorites that run the gamut from white linen shorts (for dressing up or down) all the way to my favorite denim cutoffs.
I hope you find something you like as well! I’ve found myself investing more in “nicer” shorts to dress up for evenings as I get older. There’s something about great separates that are always an instant classic. Let me know which of the pairs below is your fave!
Ivy Linen Shorts

These linen shorts are my new favorite. Pictured in these photos! I love that I can dress them up or down, and the fact that they tailor beautifully at the waist.

Ah.. I had my 2 daughters in Sunnyvale, CA.. A city hr south of SF, and summers were warm warm warm. No A/C in our 1st apt. or any pool. I lived in shorts and sandals and tank tops, all summer long (who doesn’t?) My son was born in SF but at 6 wks we moved to the ‘burbs. South Bay seemed to be warmer than N. Bay where I live now. I like empire sleeveless rayon dresses when it is SUPER hot nowadays. I love your baby blog as it brings back memories of baby days in the 70’s.
You are so very beautiful, Eva.. the first baby is SO exciting! Little Marlow is so resemblant of you and your beautiful mom. ever yours, Dorie Mckay xo
You look great, lean Amazon woman! Zero body fat.
