What in the jorts!?

Let's just go ahead and run through my new obsession for the day. (Or maybe the next few days) MICRO shorts! Whoot! Or "hot pants" if you will! Seriously, we all thought this trend was only reserved for Lady Gaga, Beyonce, The Minaj wonder, and other hippie-like figures. This style showed up this year on Jason Wu's Spring/ Summer show and also creeped up on Jill Stuart's catwalk. I styled a girl today that wanted an insane original look and we ended up picking these shorts! Yes they slightly resemble panties, but if rocked right...they work! We ended up with an awesome two-toned chiffon button up top, a huge statement necklace under the collar, the shorts (of course), and some kick butt rocker studded platforms! Honey, I took her look from two cent street walker, to edgy fashion goddess. She had the confidence, I just simply had the eye. Other ways to rock hot pants are with an over sized boyfriend blazer(if you are shy like me), with blackout tights and platforms for a cool look, or if you are daring throw on a 1/2 bustier and a sheer top! Send me your pics of how you rock your hot pants. As for jean shorts, they are everywhere and in every form possible right now. I have never really been a "shorts" girl, but since I've lost weight, I see the obsession with having a million different colors, lengths, cuts, and styles! I mean, at a certain point you start to say to yourself, "do I really need pair #78?" DIY jean short projects are easy and can make your pair really stand out. A few friends asked me how to jazz up old shorts the other day. I say, bleach 'em, paint splatter 'em, dye 'em, stud 'em, distress 'em, cut 'em, lace 'em up, and re-sew those bad boys! The ideas are endless! Take a day out with some friends and just have a craft day! I have a craft date planned with my bestie so I will post as soon as we start creating. In true Fashunmash tradition I have not disappointed my readers. I have a great Oh No "HE" Didn't today! I have witnessed male jorts too many times. Men, it is not okay to wear cutoffs!!!! I know the breeze of daisy dukes seems alluring, but please refrain! Until next time readers.

                                                 OH NO "HE" DIDN'T!!!

                                        The fact that these are cut offs and he has a hairy back
                                        makes this pic all the better!
