Beetle Juice

Shirt: Kohls/ Shorts: Lucky Brand via T.J. Maxx/ Sandals: Rue21/ Earrings: OldNavy/ Belt: Target/ Bracelet: Charlotte Russe/ Sunglasses: Gianni Bini 

This past weekend I attended the African American Culture Festival in downtown Raleigh and this is what I wore. When I met my friends downtown, one of them looked at me and the first thing she said was, "You look like Beetle Juice." If you know who/what Beetle Juice is, you would understand why I gave her a salty glare in response.

Despite being told that I looked like a zombie, I think this look was a hit, and perfect for the transitioning weather.Plus these shorts were on clearance for only $3! The inspiration for this outfit came as I was scrolling through my Pinterest boards and came across a neon green monochromatic outfit pinned beside a pair of black and white stripped pants. I instantly thought of these shorts and shirt and paired the two together!

This is a simple look that I would wear again with flats or heels. Pairing shorts with a button down is also an easy way to make daisy dukes a little less risque.
