Happy weekend. I hope you had a great week. My boyfriend has been here since Sunday and we’ve mostly just been both working during the day but we’ve tried to do one fun activity each day. We went to the Van Gogh immersive here in Charleston (so cool, I’m so happy that it came here!), had a few different family dinners, went Bourbon tasting, got massages, made these salmon burgers together, and had a fun dinner with my parents last night. Oh and we watched this movie! I had been dying to see it. This weekend we are going out on our friends’ boat, maybe lounging by the pool, and going to my dad’s blues jam (he plays the harmonica!). Whatever you’re up to, I hope it’s great!

Thanks for posting about the Agolde Parker shorts in the long version- I had no idea they existed! I was literally thinking this week after wearing my short Agolde Parker shorts that I wish these came in a longer version, because even though I’m only 5′ these feel like booty shorts on me because I’m so curvy. Not the look I’m going for at 39 when I’m picking my kid up at camp!
Oh you are so welcome. I feel your pain. They are perfect shorts are either too short or too long and these are just right!
