Before I start talking about clothes, I am so excited that The Girl From Connecticut is finally on snapchat (username: thegirlfromct)! It has been a long time coming and I am glad that I finally took the plunge. On snapchat you’ll definitely see more everyday outfits and products that I like, along with trips and other day to day stuff! Let me know what you want to see more off and I will be happy to oblige 🙂Â
Now onto the outfit! As much as I love to wear pants, some days are just not appropriate to wear them. It may be too hot, and showing a little (or in my case) a lot of leg doesn’t hurt. Oh, and let’s not forget about showing off our summer tan 🙂 I like to stray away from denim shorts or shorts that are not the proper length for an everyday look, but rather go for a classic and more professional looking  pair. The stores that I find has really cute shorts are Ann Taylor, J. Crew, and Banana Republic.Â
To give this outfit a more preppy and put together vibe, I wore my favorite and also classic Polo Ralph Lauren button down. I recently bought it in this color too! Lace up flats are my favorite and they certainly add a more interesting factor to a ordinary outfit. The ones I am wearing I bought last summer from Zara, so they are not available but there are similar and affordable options linked below.
Ps: Don’t forget to add me on snapchat for more styling fun and there is a shop snapchat page for any outfits or beauty that is snapped!
