“But there are just those days when our body’s sensory judgment and sartorial stubbornness defy the environment’s temperature.”
I am not a huge fan of seasonal dressing. Well, I occasionally submit myself to it as evidenced by some of my previous posts here but there are just those days when our body’s sensory judgment and sartorial stubbornness defy the environment’s temperature. Case in point: wearing a tight black long sleeve turtleneck over a satin dress, certainly didn’t pass your holy list of summer essentials. Neither did it capture those ice cream vendors’ sweet approvals. Or so I thought.
Whilst looking for a place, I was offered such frozen delights, by three different sorbeteros! Thrice, my dear. ‘Cause who damn does layering in Summer? They probably wondered then.
Politely, I just shook my head in refusal and flashed each of them a big grin. And they smiled in return, besides their obvious acknowledgment of my rejection, I’d like to think that they also sensed how incredibly comfortable I was with this ensemble despite that sweltering afternoon of April and a cold dairy wouldn’t make much of a difference. So their smiles provided a stamp of approval in a whole new degree of style affirmation.
Because I did feel at ease! And you should always bear in mind that comfortability must always prevail against vanity. Always.
