sartorial sunday: sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy

We have been fortunate enough to have 3 days of warmth and sunshine IN A ROW this week. It feels a bit too good to be true, but I'm trying my hardest to believe it and not take it for granted. The forecast for the coming week says 0% chance of rain, slight breeze, light clouds here and there, and warm warm warm. For me, this means FAT-ing it up with my legs out for the world to see. When the temp goes over 70, there's no way in hell I'm putting on pants.

So behold, SHORTSPOCALYPSE 2012.

My nails are bare this week, as I clipped them quite short recently and am in the process of re-growing them. I hope they're long enough to bother painting by next weekend. I hate painting them when they're too short, because I end up with more polish on my fingertips than on my actual nails.

Silas doesn't own any shorts other than swim trunks, but the warmer weather has translated into rolled up flannel sleeves for him. I may cut one of his ill-fitting pairs of jeans into below-the-knee shorts for the summer (a look he has rocked quite well in the past). I just bought him 3 new pairs of jeans, as his most recent growth-spurt sent him upwards in the legs by at least an inch and suddenly everything was too short.
