I am still convinced that people in Kansas think that if you wear anything with a bit of height with shorts it means you are a hooker or from the movie Pretty Woman. I do not understand this thought process, clearly. I could wear flats but they bore me, don’t photograph well, don’t look that good on me and so on. Additionally, my feet really don’t do well with something that doesn’t have a heel, although I MIGHHTTT be taking a more extreme approach because it probably doesn’t want four inch heels. Just one or two. My feet are probably going to hate me later for this but whatever, I can wear ugly shoes when I’m old. I’m sure that Nurture or whatever 70 year old women are buying now will be around when I need them. Besides, I cannot feel dressed up when I am wearing flats and clearly one shoulder tops need to make me feel dressed up.
Top: Zara (sold out)
Shorts: Target (similar)
Clutch: Jessica Simpson (similar)
Necklace: C/O Hello Cheeseburger
Note: am I still rocking that scar from my accident? Yep. Did I consider photoshopping out that band-aid? Yep. I didn’t though because it’s kind of a hilarious reminder that I need to be more careful, stop caring what other people think and embracing that I will always have imperfections even when trying to look nice.

I just read somewhere that while pumps with shorts are not recommended, wedges with shorts are right on trend! Rock it!

I can do heels and shorts in the evening here and feel normal, but during the day would make me look like a crazy person here too. Whomp, whomp. You look adorable and I love this necklace.

Haha! I miss living in NYC because I could wear whatever I wanted and no one would bat an eye. Your neon rhinestone necklace is gorgeous!

Wedges + shorts is one of my all time favorite combos. I feel like it looks so much better than shorts with flats!

ACK RIGHT? Flats just don't add the same pizzaz that heels do in a photoshoot. Maybe it's something about being taller = makes you look skinnier or something IDK! but I feel those feels. Also you'd make a beautiful hooker so a big wiggling middle finger to the Kansas haters. 8))))))))))
that was supposed to be a compliment but I'm not sure

I love this! Shorts and heels are awesome! You should see the looks I get when I wear some of my outfits. Mississippi doesn't know what hit them! Can you come do my hair like that? That would be awesome, thanks. And while you are doing my hair, I will wear your fancy necklace. It will be great!

I'm not one much for heels, but its the best way to dress up shorts. My aunt is one of those that still gives people "the looks."

You look amazing and I didn't even notice the bandaid, probably because I was staring at your necklace! You always rock the goods sweetie <3

Your one-sleeve top and statement necklace are gorgeous and I love the neon yellow on them both. Cute sandals too. Nine West Shoes are my favorite. And for a dressy Summer Outfit, I love dressing up shorts with heels. =)
Happy July Pretty Alissa!!
Andi
giiiirl, you look so fancy! As a Kansas girl, I approve shorts and heels! And no shame in keeping it real. I had to give blood the other day, and had blue tape all wrapped around my arm, which I luckily remembered to remove before taking pics. So classy.

I think shorts and heels look so cute together! And you totally rock them in this outfit!

People think that? Really? People are nutty. I love wearing heels with shorts and heels with everything because heels really do make everything look better. This birkenstock trend is dumb. Birkenstocks make everything look bad. There, I said it.
Hopefully by the time we are old ladies some will FINALLY crack the code and figure out how to make orthopedic shoes look cute. Fingers Crossed.

I love shorts and heels! It always makes me feel a bit "fancier" ;]

Ugh I WISH my feet preferred heels. They prefer very much the opposite. Wah wahhhhh. You look super cute! And only slightly hooker-y 😉

I only found the bandaid after looking for it =P I cannot wear heels because they hurt my feet so much, but I think they look amazing!

This is so funny – I just wrote about wearing shorts and heels the other day! I had never tried the combo before but I felt emboldened after seeing other bloggers give it a shot. I absolutely LOVE this look! And you definitely do not look like a prostitute 🙂
