I think The Shins' Oh, Inverted World is really great driving-around-in-nice-weather-music.
Shrug - Forever 21; Top - Urban Outfitters (Silence and Noise); Belt - Gap; Shorts - thrifted; Shoes - Old Navy
I like this top a lot. But I've struggled when it comes to pairing it with other things because it's so darn skimpy. It's short, and I'm not really up for showing off my tummy - so I have to wear something underneath it or wear it with something high waisted. I'm really glad I found these shorts because I think the paper-bag-ish fit balances out the super-fitted skimpy-ness of the top. The shorts are actually denim, but you can't really tell in these photos...
I wore this shrug for most of the day because I'd feel a little silly wearing shorts and a strapless top when it's barely April. But I took some photos without it because I think I like the outfit better that way. What do you think? Shrug or no shrug?
P.S. I don't know why these shorts look so wrinkly, I swear I steamed them before I left the house.

ah I love this, I was torn with that top I almost bought it like 3 times, but I felt the same way, now I wish I did! This look is great, those shorts really do balance that top out so nicely.

I have the same problem with that top! I wore with a shirt underneath in one of my last posts but I don't always want to wear something underneath. I love those shorts with it!

I say no shrug, but that might be because it's so so very hot here. Either way, it's adorable!
you pulled off the corset top perfectly, I'm jealous!! The blue shorts look similar to the Garden Collection ones they sell at H&M but you got them for a lot cheaper, so again, I'm jealous!!! anyways, I really love this look. TOO PERFECT FOR SPRING :D
