I have these white shorts. I bought them 2 years ago in anticipation of a cruise to the Caribbean. The ship sailed and docked and two summers later, the tag is still on The Shorts! I make every excuse not to wear them: 1) Fear of a ketchup and mustard incident at a cookout. 2) The Shorts will end up dirty due to a subway ride. 3) I’ll rub my eyes and get a streak of black eyeliner on the white shorts. 4) A random kid with painted hands will hug me.
The shorts are cute. They fit well and some days, the outfit planning process would be simpler if I just threw on these white shorts. Whenever I see someone wearing white pants/shorts or “all white everything” – I think about The Shorts. I actually decided to wear them last week but – of course – the idea was nixed for fear of looking like I coordinated outfits with a friend.
The end of summer is fast approaching. Let’s see if I can rock my white shorts before the seasons change. Then again, there’s always next year.
