an ode to denim shorts



(shirt: vintage, shorts: hacked-up jeans)



There are certain things that, to me, are just so evocative of summer. Muggy humid days and warm sun on grass and brief starry nights. And, of course, sunglasses and straw hats and denim cut offs.
Such a simple piece of clothing says so much about a season. My shorts, a hacked-up old pair of my mum's jeans from before I was born, have seen at least fifteen summers. You can see the hems unfolding  and there are ink splatters too.
And this summer is going to be an ode to denim shorts, and to the lifestyle that comes with them. To long nights and lazy days and endless laughter. To travel and festivals and picnics. To batik classes and photography workshops and flower-crown making. To summertime.
