Pumping Up the Shorts

 

I recently came to the realization that people don't amp up their shorts as much as then could. Usually they are just an item that goes with something other piece.  However, I think there is a lot of room for experimentation with different statement shorts. Whether they are high waisted, scalloped, or made with an entirely unique fabric. 

P.S. There are those fabu Givenchy Cut Out Booties again.

Celebutante Style

I love Nicole Richie's outfit in this photo. Let me count the ways, first of all I love the Givenchy booties with the cutouts. Some people call them gladiator heels but I don't see it in this style. Second I love the cutoff shorts and loose top. Another thing that stands out to me is the bangles that are both high on her arm and hanging at her wrist; it's slightly more unusual than just one or the other. Finally, who can forget her signature headband that she often has around her forehead. Such a simple but well put together outfit.
