I wore this outfit here sometime in the summer and it is as extreme as an outfit can be even for summer. So, I ordered a bunch of shorts from Loft during their summer sale a couple of months ago and this particular one captivated my attention because of the prints and I read the description of the shorts like I always do but somehow skipped the reviews. I am very sure that if I had been patient enough to read the reviews, I would have found out that the shorts are shorter than was advertised on the site. I was shocked when I opened the package and realized that the shorts are indeed super short. No wonder some people hate online shopping so much. I have always had good experience shopping online though because I always shop from stores that I am familiar with in regards to the sizing and quality of their products. As for this shorts, I contemplated whether to return them or not then found out that it was a final clearance sale and returns were not allowed so I decided to keep them for date night with the hubs. Also I can use them as beach shorts with a wrap around my waist and can also strut around my house in them; so, it is a keeper after all.

Have you ever had a bad experience shopping online? I am an avid online shopper because I usually do not have much time to spend in stores; as a mother of four, I usually have to use my time wisely although I do have some "me" time at the mall sometimes where I just walk and do window shopping mostly. It can be relaxing to spend time at the mall especially when you love shopping and people watching but it's also advisable to leave the wallets at home when you want to go window shopping. Have you had any ugly experience shopping online? Do share...
Thanks so much for stopping by

What caught my eyes first was your beautiful neon straps heels! I love that colour against your skin tone! And good thing you kept the shorts because you rocked them :) looking forward to autumn like you said :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Kiwi; I love the heels too.
DeleteBeauty, to be honest, I don't think the shorts are too short at all! They look great! But I understand if it's not the length you want. Nowadays, I rarely shop online for clothes. Maybe shoes, but clothes are always a hit or miss. I remember buying an ASOS dress awhile back. I still wear that dress, but it was a lot tighter than I thought it would be...sigh...
ReplyDeleteYou look so gorgeous in those shorts and sandals. xo

I prefer the convenience of online shopping too. I have been lucky so far because I don't have any really bad online shopping stories. I really like how you paired the blazer with the shorts and that extra pop of color with the shoes. I think they were a good buy for you. I'm sure the hubs liked the outfit :)
ReplyDeleteAh Those heels!! I love this look and those shots look just fine. Cute overall look.
