Tap Pants

 

I've had these Perry Ellis seafoam green and cream stripe linen shorts for over 25 years! They are so much fun to wear and are reminiscent of the tap pants of the roaring 20's. Well, maybe I am stretching this a little, but there is a frivolity about these knickers that makes me think about flappers practicing their dance routines.

I took the shorts to the beach (the only place I would wear them) and paired them with a fitted oatmeal colored cropped knit sweater from H&M, a neutral floppy straw hat that I have had for way too many years and big yellow sunglasses from the Gap. Tap dancing into the sunset...
