Rouche, why must your shorts be so cute?

I am coveting so many pairs of shorts from Ruche lately, that it's border-line ridiculous...

I'm going to buy one of these three here:

 Or These?>>>>>










Boy oh boy is my window shopping eye DANGEROUS!  What do you fine people think?  I'm sort of leaning toward the floral print... I think.... maybe...

FLORAL SHORT-LACE SHORTS-GREEN STRIPE

Dressing for the World Cup and Other Sporting Events

I saw THIS POST on College Fashion.net and I thought it was such a great idea!

It's all about dressing for a sporting event while still preserving your style!

This is an idea I can get behind, and a reason that I love  the PINK Loves Major League Baseball collection that Victoria's Secret has come out with!

I Purchased this shirt off the PINK website literally weeks ago, but it is unfortunately on back order until July 4th!  I probably just should have gone to the store to get it but it was one of those impulse, "I have to have this right now!" purchases.  Currently they have 11 MLB Teams, mostly from the big cities like New York, Boston, Chicago, and Los Angeles; The New York Yankees, The New York Mets, The Boston Red Sox, The Chicago White Sox, The Chicago Cubs, The Los Angeles Angels, The Los Angeles Dodgers,   The Minnesota Twins, The Philedelphia Phillies, The San Diego Padres, and the St. Louis Cardinals.  If I were a wealthy woman I would have bought all of the Yankees gear which includes another t-shirt, a long sleeve t-shirt, crop sweat pants, yoga pants, a baseball cap, and a sweatshirt.

They also have a great Collegiate Collection that features over 50 schools from across the United States!  I'm not really a college sports fan but I think it's a great thing to offer because I find that most of the clothes the schools sell are geared at men.

And with that I leave you with this last word, GO USA!

My very first Etsy purchase!

Well I'm still on a bit of a birthday-shopping high (shameful, I know!) So I decided to give Etsy a try.  It's really amazing how much you can find on Etsy, it's like the biggest thrift store ever!

I put in an order with 41stvintage for these two blazers:

I am on a weird over-sized blazer obsession lately.  I also ordered this blazer from ModCloth the other day:

I am not ashamed to admit that part of the reason I bought this blazer is because it's called "Blazer Saddles", and I love the Mel Brooks movie Blazing Saddles!  But the main reason was because it's a Linen blazer and I love Linen, particularly for the summer.

The only blazers I own currently are more form-fitting (though ill-fitting on me) and I just don't like any of them too much.  I have a great brown corduroy one that I bought in Old Navy years ago that I love, but it's a little snug.  I can't wait to get these in the mail, and will post pictures once I get them :)

Got to love birthdays!

Who are some of your favorite sellers on Etsy?  Got any recommendations? Do you love or hate over-sized blazers?
