Happy Fashion Friday!
My little town of Asheville has been growing so much lately! In fact we just got our very own outlet mall! I never would have dreamed of that when I moved here almost 12 years ago. When I moved here the town has just gotten it's first Target and that was a big deal!
I stopped in the other day and completely fell in love with these shorts.
They are a light linen and could not be more comfortable for hot summer days!
But I think they look more polished than just throwing on denim shorts.
The tank is one of my favorites for summer that goes with everything!
I've got to admit I'm a fan of being able to find some great deals at home! I've got a feeling I'll be finding more great stuff there in the future.
Shop the Look!

I'm looking forward to spending some time exploring downtown Asheville this weekend AND going to that wedding! I think my pinched nerve will be ready to dance. Just in time for a serious Michael Jackson medley! I hope you guys have great weekend plans too.
Thanks for stopping by today! Have a fabulous weekend. I’ll see you back Monday for another edition of Things I’m Loving Lately. I found a yogurt you must try!
Thanks to Nicole for the Fit and Fashionable linkup! I’m also linking up with Joylynne Shane for Fashion Friday and Turning Heads Tuesday.
Your turn!
Do you love hydrangeas?
What’s your favorite way to wear shorts?

You look great! Your hair is lovely and I really love the pink shorts on you. I have a hard time keeping my linen dress ironed, but your shorts look perfect!!
Thanks for linking up with Turning Heads Tuesday

Can I just tell you how much I love your Fashion Friday posts? You are too adorable. I'm almost ashamed to say it, but I still haven't been to the outlet malls. I have got to get out there before we head to the beach in a couple of week! Hope to see you soon. 🙂
JulieWunder says
Thank you!!!!! Lots of fun stuff!

I went to Downtown after 5 tonight, and it was fabulous. We also checked out Brusin' Ales. It's super nice to get to know downtown.
JulieWunder says

Kate @KateMovingForward says
LOVE this look! That white tank is an absolute staple. There have been so many good sales going on it is hard for me to say no to! Also, I love Asheville! Such a cute town I used to drive through there on my way to Greenville, SC when I went to college there and loved the Biltmore House and shopping downtown! So cute!
JulieWunder says
Thanks Kate! I love Asheville too. It is such a fun quirky place!

Beverley Cheng says
love them! i am always a fan and on the look out for pink shorts - my favorite color. great for summer
JulieWunder says
I agree! Thanks Beverly!
Jamie says
Ummm so cute! I love to wear bright, colorful patterned shorts in the summer with a plain white or black tank and a colorful necklace. I feel like it's the perfect combination of "put together" and "beachy relaxed"! And hydrangeas are my absolute favorite flower - they remind me of Nantucket where the surround our back deck : )
JulieWunder says
That sounds like a perfect summer look.
Those are my Annebelle hydrangeas. The flowers are huge. I love them too. You are totally making me want to see Nantucket! 🙂
Danyelle Musselman says
Cute shorts! I'm obsessed with J Crew Factory, they have the best jewelry and the kids' clothes are to die for!
JulieWunder says
I agree! Great stuff at good quality!
Stacie @ SimplySouthernStacie says
Asheville has outlets now!? When can I come visit? haha
Those shorts are too cute and you seriously look like a model in that last picture.
JulieWunder says
I know! Crazy huh!? They aren't the biggest or fanciest, but they have a couple good stores! I still can't really believe it.
A model??? You know how to make a girl feel good :-)))
Beth @ Running with the Sunrise says
That outfit is adorable, Julie! You're making me miss living close to Asheville! (I was in Clemson for 5.5 years when I was working on my PhD.) Hope you have fun exploring downtown--it's such a fun area!! Have a great weekend!
JulieWunder says
Thank you! Asheville is awesome. I love it here. I didn't know you went to Clemson! So cool!
Farrah says
Oh, Asheville...I hear so many wonderful things about it!! There's a FM program that I want to apply to over there, but I'm not sure my scores are awesome enough to get me in! :[
But yay for outlets and finding great deals! I love summer weather and getting to live in shorts + tank tops! 😀 I hope you have an awesome weekend!
JulieWunder says
It is a really cool place! Very competitive in anything because so many people want to live here now. I know you will find the perfect program for you!
Deborah @ Confessions of a Mother Runner says
Always love your fashion style! Those shorts look super comfy. I've been wearing a lot of dresses this summer
JulieWunder says
Thanks Deborah! The shorts are awesome. I'm normally a dress girl, but I made an exception for these shorts.
Heather @Fit n Cookies says
That's so fun! I love having an outlet mall close for when I want deals. It's about 25 minutes away, but I don't go too often. I love those shorts. They look so comfortable!
JulieWunder says
And you have a good one!! I've been! I can only go every once in a while- haha! The shorts are crazy comfortable!
Blane Sherer says
That's a great summer look ( nice shorts with a nice tank top ).
I do hope you enjoy the wedding and the dancing this weekend.
JulieWunder says
Thank you Blane!
