Shark Bite Shorts.

I’m a Kansas City girl through and through, but I was actually born in California. And while laid-back surfer girl doesn’t exactly describe my personality, I can hint at it when my hair is left to its own beachy devices and I put on a pair of destroyed denim cutoffs.

Cutoffs are casual, but they don’t have to be sloppy. I wore these Free People Shark Bite shorts (aptly named from the uneven hem + tattered nature of the shorts) with a loose muscle tank and bright gladiator sandals. Coral + turquoise is a classic summer color combo (and one of my favorites), and the jewelry compliments without competing with the relaxed outfit.

  1. Loving those great sandals! And really affordable too- you wear a lot of 9 West, it seems. Must be a great brand!

  2. You wear the beach girl look so well! 🙂 Love the pretty colors and how they compliment on another. Super cute shorts, too.

  3. Looking so beautiful, Ashley! I love this outfit and I love how it’s a little more casual than we’re used to seeing you. Love that you’re originally from California- that’s so cool!

  4. Oh love the pop of orange, just gorj! And great cut-offs too. Oh boy I made some cut-offs last week but did not check myself before I walked out the door, lets just say I could have been more generous with the scissors I was definitely sporing the conservative look. You can see for self next week. Will have to break out the scissors again.

  5. Love this laid back look!! So adorable. And those sandals. I want them. Now.
    Side note- I’m obsessed with your bright blue door. I really want to paint our front door something bright and fun!

  6. Ahh I was born in California as well (living and working on the east coast now though). I think I can totally see the west coast laid-back vibe from this outfit. The colors are gorgeous and your hair is stunning! I think cutoffs can be tricky to style but, as usual, you created a very chic and polished ensemble! Gorgeous!

  7. I have never heard of shorts named that but I can totally see it. Do you go back to Cali often? Very nice colors here. Have a good coming weekend! Rachel xo

  8. Ohmygosh I just got a pair of cut offs and I’ve basically been living in them since. Definitely a great thing to have as they go with a lot of things. Your whole outfit is perfect…those shoes are to die for:)

  9. Love this look! If I could wear a tank top with cut-off denim everyday I totally would!! This outfit is getting me ready for the weekend. Out of the office and into my cut-offs!!!

  10. You pull off the beachy vibe beautifully! I wish I could make it on Saturday, but take lots of pictures of the fire dancers:)
