We’re in our second heat wave of the Summer and it’s only mid-July. It seems here in the American Midwest that every Summer is one long heat wave nowadays! On hot summer days, I gravitate towards flowing caftans (see my Kaftan Style Guide Here) or loose dresses. But another cool thing to wear is shorts. There are lots of different styles, but the basic is a pair of denim shorts. It’s time to put those on rotation, so I have collected over 25 outfit ideas to make jean shorts fun to wear. Age doesn’t matter. It just depends on what looks best on you and you are the best judge of that. When you wear what you love, you’ll enjoy your day. And that always looks good!

Polka dots are trending this Spring and Summer, as they seem to do every year. Am I right?! That makes it a classic and as I always like to mention, that means age doesn’t matter. So I came up with eight outfit ideas for polka-dot skirts. That’s the only thing I have in that print, which led me to decide that I may as well keep this blog post simple. But it actually branched out a bit as I thought of more things. So I added a couple of other stylings including outfits for transitional weather, a little information on print mixing and a style tip at the end.
I hope you get inspired to come up with some new ways to wear your polka-dots clothes. You might even find something you’d like to buy, but that’s probably not necessary. Feel free to play with the pieces you have and enjoy!

I had no idea that when I went to the Michigan International Women’s Show for the first time, I would end up in a wonderland of romantic fashion.

Therefore, you can be sure they will be lasting basics in your wardrobe. Age doesn’t matter when you wear something this classy.
This is an update of my original post reorganized with more outfit ideas.
