In my Denim Daisy Dukes

Ok, so I exaggerated. These shorts are so far from daisy dukes (little, tight-fitting denim shorts for women, typically made from a pair of cutoff jeans). But I love alliterations and it sounded cool so that's what we're going with, okay?

I pulled from my 7 Fads/ Summer Challenge List posted back in May and gave denim shorts a go. Let me tell you, i've avoided this particular garment for years! I last remember wearing jean shorts in grade school and recall ditching them because showcasing my little fat knees was an issue for me in the 90's. In 2015, my fat knees are a part of who I am. An internet troll once told me that my knees look like they have a face in 'em. As long as the face is smiling, that's fine by me.

I always tell people, what you consider a "flaw" will still be JUST THAT whether you're concealing it with layers, or letting it hang out. The first day of Summer was over the past weekend and it's alread 94 degrees. I'm wearing these shorts, damn'it.
