preppy + nautical + granola = prauticola

here is a perfect example of pairing already owned (ao) shorts with a newer piece.  i think it's ok to pair big wide stripes with plaid like this as long as you stay in the same color family!  boy2 picked out the shorts and it was a chillier spring day.  as I was flipping through his long sleeve tees -- BAM!  this tee jumped off the hanger at me.  I love when an outfit JUMPS out at me and it works!
