Today I’m wearing (Surprise!) shorts! 😀
But great colour, yes? In a fresh and cool shade of acidic citrus yellow, like a shot glass of limoncello, that wickedly delicious stuff that is to my mind another synonym for “summer evening”.
So, OK. Playing one-week-one-pattern is fun, but I am feeling like there are no surprises here. Nothing new, only a small pool of Burda 7723’s from which to choose. So I apologise for the repetition and lack of suspense happening here, and can only offer a (hopefully) quite nice outfit in a photograph of a (hopefully) pleasing perspective, colour and composition. I have no idea whether or not that I am successful in this.
But I can only try.
Would you like to know the definition of a reeeeally funfun day? Doing two hours worth of mind-numbingly dull accounting, only to suddenly wake up and realise you have been entering the year 2011 into Every. Single. One.
Hola! (time to check out the actual limoncello situation, I reckon…)
In the meantime; the funny below gave me a big chuckle, so please enjoy…
Later peops!

I really like the colour of those shorts. I have been seeing a lot of yellow around lately. It really isn't my colour but I still may have to invest in some yellow somewhere I think.
I prefer the term lemoncello to yellow. It reminds me it's cocktail o'clock.
Great shorts. The top is fantastic!!!
I love these shorts .. beautiful. Time is going just too quickly for us all!
You look lovely, as usual!
I really enjoyed the cartoon.
Love your shorts! great cartoon 🙂
Ah shorts, soon I will be wearing shorts and sunscreen, complaining about the heat and eating fresh cherries, apricots, peaches etc. Summer hurry up. But I ramble, my condolences on the accounting fumble. Good cartoon.
Cute yellow shorts, great cartoon, and I want your pink hibiscus 😉
Beautiful sandals!!
Cute shorts and LOL cartoon!
This is definitely a summer outfit and I love it! Mmmm… I want those sandals 😀
the cartoon is a hoot. Next time you make an accounting error, please come for a visit…we have a great limoncello made locally.
That cartoon is hilarious. I'm all about some yellow at the moment and I love limoncello!
Limoncello is fabulous and so are your shorts! Also that is a lovely color polish you have on your toes!
Thanks for sharing the cartoon, I giggled!
That cartoon is hilarious!!! ugh, I've made mistakes like that too. Usually in my case followed by a lot of carrying on and crying, and perhaps some swearing. I like your solution better. 🙂
And I'm loving all these versions of shorts. I might need to get 'round to figuring out a perfect shorts pattern (I have a worn out pair that fit great that I'm thinking of picking apart and using as a base) and then I think I too would make quite a few copies! Not boring at all.
