Hi! I’m Lydia from Chic on the Cheap, guest posting while Alex is off enjoying her vacation. I’m rubbish at writing intros, so I’m just going to skip ahead the shorts.
The short shorts, or as I think I will call them, the Standing Room Only Shorts, since should I attempt to sit in them, they pretty much just disappear.
They have scallops, are adorable, and I’m determined to wear them, so it’s settled, I will just be that girl in the inappropriately short shorts.
This is my dog Chloe, who I like to drag along on my outfit photo shoots. She is a bichon, and she does not really like to look at the camera.
This is the turquoise bag that prompted me to start blogging in the first place. I’ve had it for almost three years now; I’m glad I decided to buy it. The story is pretty enthralling, so I’ll share it with you:
Girl sees bag, falls in love, but talks herself out of buying it because she doesn’t like the $80 price tag.
The next day, she decides she wants it anyway and goes back, but it’s gone.
Two months later, the bag reappears, only now it’s $60.
Girl buys bag, feels victorious, and starts a blog so she can brag about it.

I hope you’ve all enjoyed my guest post and decide that you might want to come visit me sometime! And if lots of leg and a cute dog aren’t enough to convince you that my blog might be worth a moment of your time, I also (occasionally) hunt around the web to find great deals on clothes and then share them with you. That is, if it wasn’t the last one in stock and I already bought it for myself, anyway.

Thanks so much for guest posting, Lydia! I don’t think those shorts are too short at all, but I definitely know what you mean about disappearing shorts.

Cuteness- you, Chloe and the shorts! I have a lot of cellulite on my upper legs- a lot. And even though I am comfortable with that reality and my body in general, I choose not to wear short, shorts because I won’t feel comfortable.
But if I had your legs, hell, I’d be wearing them all the time. Enjoy them, I say!
