Rose + Ruffled.

Chiffon is a brilliant thing.

When done right, it’s floaty and breathable, doesn’t easily wrinkle, and makes an all-black outfit like this cool enough for late August. Praise!

Love these super cute rose floral shorts by Swell; the roses and ruffles make ’em sweet, but the black background toughens ’em up just a bit. I paired them with a roomy blouse from ASOS, patent pumps, and a touch of silver via one of my Madewell go-to’s.

  1. I love the classic pointed-toe pump with those fun summer shorts. Swell has some awesome stuff- I didn’t realize how wearable their things were off-the-beach, you know? You’ve really shown how to dress their pieces up and stretch them for more occasions. Awesome!

  2. Oh my goodness, your shorts are way too cute and we can think of a million ways to wear them. So loving how you styled them though, perfect for basically any time.

  4. You are looking beautiful as always. Your hair is so pretty like this! I love the beachy waves, don’t get me wrong, but it looks gorgeous all blown out, too!

  5. This might be one of my favorite outfits. Nobody wears shorts like you, Ash! Amazing look. 🙂

    PS- Thanks for the ShopBop reminder- I need to check this out! Could use some back to school gear. 🙂

  6. I can’t believe how cute these shorts are! You could definitely dress them up or down. Love the styling here. 😀
