Pinterest Pick

I am so deeply in love with fall, the only time I’m not looking forward to the cooler weather and the leaves changing is when we’re in the middle of it.

So when I sign onto Pinterest looking for summer outfit inspiration, and all I come across are fall outfits with boots and scarves, it gets me even more excited…and then frustrated because it’s not fall and I still need summer outfit ideas.

That’s when I type “Summer Outfit Inspiration” aaand that’s when I get a whole slew of girls in outfits that no one in the real world could, or would want to — and even if they did it wouldn’t be appropriate — wear about.

Outfits like this one…

Let’s break it down.

I like that she’s paired a statement necklace with a white button down. I think this is a great way to have easy style in the summer. You can pair this with a skirt, denim shorts, jeans, or even wear it over a maxi dress. It’s a classic style that’s made modern with a fresh statement necklace.

What I don’t like, is that it’s another one of those Pinterest pictures that are not for the average woman. Who wears a skirt that short? Why would one want to? How does she sit down? Those are all the questions that pop into my head when I see that much of her legs.

Something else that’s pretty unbelievable about this outfit, she’s making a fanny pack look sexy. Yeah, nice try Pinterest model, but we all know that in real life you look like such a dork (we hope), and that when you reach for your cash out of that thing that people are snickering behind you (please let that be the case). Because no one, NO ONE can make a fanny pack look that good.

But the white shirt and statement necklace, that does look good. So thanks for that.
