Daisy Dukes at the B.B.Q

Hello Friends,

So unfortunately I can count the summer weekends left on my hand. That sucks. So I have made a point to really get out there and enjoy what's left of this warm weather, and what better way to to celebrate the middle of August then going to a family B.B.Q:

Top: Boa
Shorts: Fidelity Snapdragon
Shoes: Mephisto Black Patent Herna Sandals

When I look at these pics, i think, wow, something's missing, and then I realize that I'm not wearing black! Hallelujah! I really love the pattern on this top as it's colorful, cheery and the detailing of the sleeves gives it that special 'oomph'.

And those shorts starting off as full length Fidelity jeans, but because I was constantly on my knees (insert sex joke here) they ripped. I decided to salvage them as best I could by cutting them and now they work wonderfully as shorts. My husband calls them my daisy dukes, which I protest because I don't think that they are that short, do you?

And the shoes, let's talk about the shoes for a second:

These are my one of my favorite pairs of shoes, great for running around in with the kids and enough bling to spice up an otherwise boring 'mom' outfit. And they are the most comfortable shoes that I will ever own. Mephisto sandals (made in France) are known to be the sexy 'orthotic' shoe. I bet that you never thought that would ever hear the word 'sexy and 'orthotic in the same sentence, huh? So if you have flat feet/bad knees/ bad back like I do (yes I'm old) these will feel like you are walking on a cloud. And if rhinestones are not your thing they have so many different styles that you can find here.

So I hope that you have the most fabulous weekend:

Yay, I didn't burn anything this time!!!!

And thanks so much for reading :)
