Me
In the summer
When the sun shines (so not last summer, nor the summer before, keeping fingers crossed for this year)
We have evil nettles round here, so sandals are out. And I have a thing about shorts, so skirts (or TBH) mostly dresses it is once it gets too hot for trousers.

Takver · 22/03/2009 13:40

I should point out, in fairness, though, that I am not a good fashion role model for anyone (currently wearing fluffy slippers, dilapidated long sleeve t-shirt and overalls).

hassledmom · 22/03/2009 13:42
