High Five for Friday


shirt: target  shorts: ?  shoes: tjmaxx

1. I've had these shorts for a really long time, but they used to be at least 10 inches longer.
really long shorts and really short legs = really unflattering
I almost got rid of them but decided to just cut them off instead.
I'm pretty happy about my new pair of shorts!


2. Ever since I made my neon shirt I've wanted more neon. 
I got this shirt for $8 at Target last week and love it. 
So much I wore it again this week.


3. I'm super happy about my new nail polish color.  I want jeans this color, but a $2 bottle of nail polish is much cheaper so it will have to do for now. 



I only wish these were my nails.  Mine more resemble the doing of a seven year,
which is why I rarely do them.  

4.  I made this orzo pasta salad a week or so ago and loved it. 
Somehow cooking with orzo makes me feel fancy. 



5.  Chris and I just finished watching the first season of 24 and are ready for season 2.  
I love having a good show to watch episode after episode together.  

Hope you have a great weekend!

    I love that nail color too. I believe Target has pants that color. I saw it there not too long ago.

    Love your neon top and your sandals!

    Have a great night!

  6. I love that mint nail polish. It's a more subtle mint than the color I found. I actually found a pair of mint jeans after searching for months...and then I ruined them in the wash.

  7. I wasn't feeling the neon thing when it started up in February (because all bathing suits must be put in the stores in February, right?), but now I'm loving it. I was thinking that I need some neon nail polish today.

  10. Ok, I love all of your 5 things today! I've been craving some neon lately, but am concerned that maybe I'm too old. Is there an age limit? And, I feel fancy when I cook with orzo too. Or quinoa. Love you sister!

  11. I love the brightly colored and pastel colored jeans that are so "in" this season. I knew I had to get at least one colorful pair while they were "in style" so I can wear them for many seasons to come...but jeans are expensive. I did manage to find a turquoise pair at Aeropostale on clearance for $10! Hurray!

  15. I love that neon yellow too! you know you made a good purchase decision when you want to wear it every week!

    also, that orzo looks incredible. I wish I was at home this weekend to make it - I'm going up to VA to see the fam. Not complaining though! I will still be eating good food I just won't have to cook it.

    Have a great weekend Katie! oh wait, every day is a weekend for you now ;)

  19. I have that same mint polish and I LOVE it! (so much that I probably need a new bottle soon). I love how you paired the neon top with the grey skirt so the neon is still subtle :) Have a great weekend, Katie!

  28. Igreat idea for the shorts...I tend to have the same problem. And I agree...there is nothing better than having an entire season of a show to watch when you want. Love it.
