Clothes for Hot Days

The summer temperatures have arrived and I’ve done some slight rearranging of my closet. Most of the jeans and slacks are put away until fall as are all the long sleeved tops. The favorite items in my closet right now are skirts/tops and dresses. I am enjoying the T-shirt dresses I made last summer.

The skirts work even better for me because I can wear them for several days with different tops. And I’ve been very successful finding skirts I like at thrift stores! I like print skirts in filmy fabrics that are just below the knee or almost ankle length. It’s a plus for them to be washable too.

Sure - I still have shorts and capris. But I’m not wearing them as much as I used to since rediscovering that dresses are cooler. I do have a pair of skinny capris that end just below the knee that I wear in celebration of the weight I finally lost last year (they used to be tight….and now they are not…maybe they are even a little loose!).
