Lazy Daze

Beatrix wanted to walk part of the way to the park today by herself.
The necklace I'm wearing was a gift from my mom on Mother's Day. It was handmade in Kenya. I happened to be wearing these shorts when I got it too and I think they go together quite nicely. I really am into highwaisted everything. It is funny because I remember not being a fan when I was younger. I found a new photo locale as the camera propped up quite nicely on the play gym.
shorts and top: Crimson and Cover Vintage
sandals: Cheap Thrills Secondhand
she picked it herself
dress: vintage
sandals, leggings and hat: secondhand

We had a lovely afternoon at the park. The weather was so warm today and it was really nice to be outside. Has anyone heard the new National album, High Violet? I just heard it and was quite taken with it. Boxer is one of my all time favorites.

  2. love the purple shorts. you're right, high-waisted is so good right now, but i remember thinking they were lame back in the day. but am so sick of lo-rise. i think you should consider being a Crimson and Clover spokesmodel, or the very least, they should sponsor you!

  4. Beautiful as always, great shorts! man I love high waisted these days too, and skinny jeans, and back in middle/high school tight pants (butt-huggers) and high waisted (urkle pants) were so not cool... haha funny how times change. :) and I love this first photo of your daughter, she looks so angelic, and those flowers look like stars... sort of reminiscent of your blog background! gorgeous.

  5. How adorable is that first picture! Beatrix is so cute and she has such a great sense of style, this must be genetic :). i love high waisted too, it's kinda weird how our taste changes, right.

  6. Oh your daughter is so lovely!! And yes to the shorts with the necklace. I wore a VERY similar outfit on my blogshop (which I really should get going). I LOVE highwaisted everything too! And I was also SO against it (and tucking) in high school. But that was just the trend then and this is now.

    Though I think the highwaisted tuck in suits me much better than the low waisted no tuck. It certainly suits you. You look very cool here. And the sunnies are perfect.

  16. As a child of the 80's, I can say that I loved me some high-waisted shorts and pants. Although now, it has taken some time for me to get back onto the groove. You look amazing in your shorts, they fit you perfectly. Bea is such an amazing little fashionista!!! She's very inspirational!
