Chelsea and Ginny Take On: A Picnic


This week Chelsea and I are taking on what to wear and eat at a picnic. It's been pretty stinking hot here, and as much as I like to be wearing my fall clothes I'm still wearing shorts whenever possible. We also have a splash park right down the street and it's works out perfectly to let Grant run around and play like a crazy man then eat lunch there. I really like this shirt because it's really light-weight and breathable, but still protects my shoulders from the sun. I decided to pair it with these Lauren Conrad shorts which I have declared the perfect denim shorts;the length is great and they don't stretch out when I'm wearing them. I added a nude wedge because I love the elongated look I get with theses as apposed to flip flops. 

Also, I still have a few sponsor spots available.  I've reduced my spot prices and have decided to us PayPal to send invoices (therefore cutting out the middle man).  Check out my option here.







Blouse: Target $7 cute option
Shorts: Lauren Conrad similar
Necklace: Stella and Dot same
Bracelets: Chimera, Triple WrapRenegade
Shoes: Kohl's  $26 c/o Chippmunk  similar

Now stop by Whatcha Makin' Now where my sister has the perfect side dish for your picnic: a delicious Brown Sugar and Pecan Grape Salad! Yum. I kid you not, the first time I had this I finished like half the pan.  Seriously.

  2. I really love this top, the color is bright and fun. And your denim shorts really do seem perfect. Did you get your hair cut? I like the short length!

  8. I love this blouse, perfect for the warm weather. The shorts are great as well.
    So nice to have a splash park so close. They are building one across the street from me and I cannot wait to take my son there next summer.

  18. I LOVE those shorts! I need to get a new pair of denim shorts (although I'll probably wait until the spring), and this is exactly what I want to pick up - the length is perfect, I love the wash, and the cuffs are adorable!
