Last minute pre-vacay shopping

My vacation to LA is just 3 days away so I had to make a mad dash for summer clothes even though Seattle is still in full June Gloom mode here. I picked up a few items from American Eagle Outfitters during my lunch break (yay for working downtown).

This lovely lace back tank top is buy one get one 50% off. So I picked up one in orange and one in turquoise. I had to strip the last size S in turquoise off the mannequin (I think you dear can afford to wear an XS).

When it came to shorts, it was slightly trickier. I ended up getting these "shortie" shorts in denim and white. I contemplated getting the "midi" length but those were only available in cut-offs. So the sensibility in me went for the non-cut off short shorts as a comprise. The shorts were buy one get one $10. So I walked out of the store in less than 30 minutes with 3 tops (an additional white racer back top for layering) and 2 pair of shorts for $80. Not too shabby.

I Love My Bermuda Shorts

So far, my favourite summer outfits always include my Banada Republic bermuda shorts. The look is flattering and professional; the fit is comfortable. I have a pair in black and a pair in white.
