The Power of Bow


Yes, it is enormous, the power of a bow. Look how it transforms a pair of normal plaid shorts into extremely quirky ones. Lollipop in hand required when walking down the street in a pair of these.

High waist vintage

Seeing a lot of vintage high waisted shorts around, but not quite sure how to work it? Take your cue from fashion student Hannah S! Check out her look-- a simple racerback tank top, belt at the waist, a long cardi to balance out the high waisted shorts, and of course, oxfords to give an edge to the whole look. Notice how half her items are thrifted from thrift stores Value Village and Salvation Army? :-)

And here are a couple of wickedly vintage high waisted shorts that will help you kick off your own look!





High-waisted shorts, RM32 each
Both items above available at Butterscotch

Hip hugger


Though this pair of denim shorts may not be a tree hugger, she's certainly a hip hugger! Made to sit low on your sexy hips, she's also got a pricetag that's hard to resist... :-P

p/s: Thrifting for denim items is a good idea, because not only do you get them at muchhhh lower prices, they're also probably worn in nicely for you so you don't have to endure that stiffness that comes with thick denim.

Let's face it. It's the right of every piece of ass to look cute, and by ass we don't mean the donkey type. We mean your little tushy, your bum, yes, THAT fine piece of ass! ;-) Give credit to where credit is due, and cuteness to where cuteness is due.

Perfect for weekends in your lazy tee and flip flops!
