You always think you know everything about yourself, until you don’t. In this case, I had yet to own anything in an olive color for fear of looking like I belonged in the army (it’s pretty obvious I’m not in the army, but someone might get confused with these big biceps of mine!). Well, these paper bag style shorts were too cute to pass up on! I’ve seen them in so many different colors, but it seems to me that the pleats and bow details of these shorts were more visible in a lighter color like this olive versus black for example. With this shade of green appearing a little more masculine, I opted for a neutral tank with a beaded neckline of alternating pearls and rhinestones for a softer look. The tank is a little low and I could’ve added a necklace, but the details on the neckline are pretty enough as is! This look was shot in the hot Texas summer, but as a transition into fall, I can totally see myself rocking these shorts in this neutral sweater and these booties. What are your favorite olive colored pieces in your wardrobe?
