Not so hot. These structured cuffed shorts look sophisticated when paired with a floral print, high collar blouse with ruffles. The look’s sophistication is taken to new heights when a metallic fringed high heel sandal is thrown into the mix. A gold clutch and studded belt add finishing touches.

The outfit is long on sophisticaion and still cool. But, those shoes. OMG, honest and truly, I dream of those shoes. I know I have said it before, but, those shoes are GORGEOUS!!!
La Belette Rouge: Thanks. You know what, the Budget Babe featured these shoes a few days ago. She found that them on sale at QVC. You should check it out.
Thank you and thank you Budget Babe!!! They have them in bronze and silver in my size. The reviews on QVC all say that this is a very uncomfortable shoe. Do you think so?
La Belette Rouge: Great! I haven’t experienced the problems of those reviewers on QVC. They are surprisingly comfortable (I usually don’t like strappy sandals at all). But, I also have not had to stand or walk in these for a long time yet. So, I don’t know if I would have a different story after doing that. I hope not!
cute cute cute!! Again you are inspiration…..wearing shorts.
Okay I know it may be too early but I finally hit the gym…..two days running(well elliptical. When all goes well with it perhaps I will be sporting shorts in Jamaica this August.
Sara: Way to go! You are the real inspiration, for I am yet to reestablish my relationship with a gym. And, JA!! That’s wonderful and will be so much fun!
I am ordering them!!!! Thank you!!! You made my day.:-)
La Belette Rouge: Yippee! You’ve got to let me know how they work out when you get them.

Budget Babe: Ha. I wear a lucky 8. Thanks for your post on fringed shoes. La Belette Rouge was able to find a pair in her size on QVC.

Fresh & Fab: Me neither! I never wore shorts. But, I must say that with looks like this one, I can do shorts comfortably.
A little too short for me, but YOU ROCK!
Cheryl Lynn: You sure? I only recently became comfortable in shorts myself.
Just awesome.
