Not So Simple in Sherlock Shorts
With season 3 of Sherlock ending just as quickly as it started, I definitely had Sherlock on the mind when I bought these shorts. Trouser style shorts can get pretty boring after a while so I love that these are not only patterned, but also textured in a nice velvety fabric. And as different as Sherlock and Watson can be, I decided to experiment with a little mixing and matching of patterns over blacks and whites. Not exactly “elementary” if you ask me, but still fun to wear!

That is a fantastic outfit, all around. Cool boots. Great blouse. And the shorts are very cool, as well.

Living in Quebec, I still cannot wrap my head around people wearing shorts in the winter. Even with tights. I miss the west coast! You look fierce.

Well, you have to remember it still gets up to 70 here in the winter! Very weird, I know. Sometimes I really wish for snow in the Bay Area!

With global warming in full swing, be careful what you wish for ;)
