I don't generally wear non-clamdigger shorts to lab (I get mistaken often enough for a grad student or technician as is) but it's supposed to reach 100 degrees today so I'm breaking my rule. I figured my baggy trouser-cut plaid shorts were a good compromise and not too short for work.

Pattern mixing again today. Today's combo is a springy watercolor floral and an autumnal dark plaid. I like the unexpected contrast, but I wonder if some people might find it seasonally confused. The shorts are a seasonless, thin suiting-type fabric and the top is a thin, drapey viscose jersey. What do you think?

Hope everyone is staying cool today!
