Jackorts and Shorkets

Hey guys! So, sorry I haven't posted in a while but I've been pretty obnoxiously sick these past 3 or 4 weeks. I was in the hospital for one of those weeks. Yea. nasty stuff. Anyway, I'll be catching up on my postings this week and next and hopefully be up to date soon.

So for this week's worth of outfits the theme is jackorts/shorkets which is just a hip and fresh way to say wearing shorts with jackets. Enjoy:

Okay so technically this outfit isn't a true shorket because it's actually a dress underneath but close enough. I realize I just started this post off with a lie. Rough.

the cowboy boots really finish this one off

Look at that magnificent piece of fabric. They call it a jacket. Again, I cheated on this one because technically it's a tunic I'm wearing, not shorts. It's the general idea that counts.   

Elbow patches and bow tie? Bam. Power Outfit.

The shoulders on this jacket could bludgeon a small mammal. 

No words for this one. It's admittedly weird. I got it from a random guy at a Christmas party. Really he was kind of an idiot because "ugly Christmas sweaters" implies that it has something to do with Christmas, not just any old sweater. This sweater is really more Mardi Gras. Felt no shame in relieving him of this jewel though because it barely fit him and he was just embarassing himself. 

This one too is quite the dream boat. Like John Cusack in the 80s. It's pure magic. My brother got me this jacket from groodwill or ARC or something for Christmas a few years ago and I've cherished it since. Also, note the use of denim jumper underneath. Actually this jumper wasn't always shorts on the bottom. It opened into a skirt but I sewed up the crotch to make it a true jumper.
