Description
Seriously, I don’t wear shorts. Except for bumming around the house on weekends. But I bared my legs on the beach, and may have gotten over my fear. Well, at the beach only.

I’m not a huge fan of shorts either (on ME – I won’t even wear them at home) but these DO look super cute on you at the beach! Lovely work Darl! I wish it was warm enough here to even entertain “thoughts of shorts”! (LOL! No I haven’t been drinking I’m just really tired xxx)
PS that checkered top is super, super cute!

Summer is right around the corner for you! That’s my swimsuit, got it from modcloth.com! First new suit in years, which is pretty sad.

Well it doesn’t surprise me it’s from Modcloth – no wonder it looks so nice…. ahhhh Modcloth if only I didn’t have to pay a king’s ransom to have it shipped….. I haven’t bought a suit in years either and will need a new one soon… maybe I SHOULD check out Modcloth…..!! ;)
