As much as I love summer sundresses, I cannot wait to pack as many shorts-centered outfits as I can into my daily wardrobe before the season ends. I happen to especially adore the pairing of shorts with long-sleeved shirts (often oxfords, seen here and here). The culottes style of this pair feels like it needs a form-fitting tee on top, and then would be just perfect for a casual dinner out along the water.

Do you ladies turn to shorts when the weather is warm, or more often dresses and skirts?

Oh my gosh, those anchor shorts are too cute! I wear a lot of dresses during the work week, but I love shorts for the weekends. ๐

I’m more of a dress and skirt person, but I do like to break out the shorts, especially when I need to be active, and especially when they fit well! ๐

At first, I wasn’t that into the shorts but now that I’ve looked them over a bit more I have to say that I really love them. Good job, RL!

Love those shorts! Adorable! I wear shorts and skirts a lot as most of my dresses are a bit more dressy.

I love your short story! The nautical shorts are fab! I am more of a sundress person, I find it easier to put on one piece rather than two!! But I prefer the look of shorts!

I almost always prefer to pair shorts with a long sleeve tee or sweater if it’s cool out!
