Old Navy blouse (silk version), Croft & Barrow shorts (luxury version), Jason Wu for Target handbag, and Zara heels (similar)
A desire for comfort paired with a deep admiration for Stella McCartney's paisley pajama looks inspired me to seek out a wallet-friendly version of the look. So during a recent visit to Kohl's, I ventured into unchartered territory - the Men's underwear department, where I found some unexpectedly perfect satin boxers. I hope that the slight sheen, generous fit, light fabric, and large paisley print read more like Zara's casual shorts than Men's underwear, and when worn with an oversized blouse, the high comfort factor ensures that I'll be wearing them on many a casual summer day.

Omg, girl, I'm shocked! Men's boxers??? That's awesome and I'm so going to Kohl's and finding myself a pair!! You seriously come up with incredible fashion ideas. Things that I would never think of, and then I feel like a copycat. LOL. But seriously, this look is so fun, and I love the sexy heels with the comfy outfit. <3

Love your shorts from Croft & Barrow but when I visited the link ... OMG... can't afford to buy such expensive short! Their prices are really expensive that's why I get back to where I used to buy cheap clothes before. Actually, since I got 2 kids, I never go shopping to mall anymore, I usually check online instead of searching through racks and racks of items at the mall. It's been so easy and comfortable since I don't have to carry my kids at all when buying clothes or any stuff I need.
This is such an awesome idea! I love when peopel totally take fashion into their own hands - and you seriously did an amazing job.
I can't believe these are men's boxers - you are so fricken creative! Did you meet any handsome strangers while browsing thorugh the underwear selection?? Need to try.
I love your hair too! The way that your straight-cut bangs look with your slightly wavy hair is so gorgeous.

Those shorts! Ahh! Knowing me I'd probably re-use them as a head scarf, not caring how silly I'd look.
