I think I bought about half a dozen tee shirts during April and May--after telling myself I didn't need more summer tops...</p> <p>And, as a tall woman, I love being able to buy and wear short-sleeve and sleeveless tops. Summer is my season when all my sleeves are long enough!</p> <p>Maybe we should move to a climate with longer summers and shorter winters. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-summer-numbers#post-1512044 Sat, 27 Jun 2015 23:37:51 +0000 Helena 1512044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lol!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-summer-numbers#post-1512034 Sat, 27 Jun 2015 23:14:19 +0000 Suz 1512034@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Too funny!&nbsp;</p> <p>You and I have to get together IRL one of these days. It's not for want of trying that we haven't, yet. But that day will come .... hopefully somewhere warm!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-summer-numbers#post-1511943 Sat, 27 Jun 2015 19:01:29 +0000 Elizabeth P 1511943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm probably well on my way Suz... especially given I've now just shortened my winter needs by two months </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-summer-numbers#post-1511908 Sat, 27 Jun 2015 17:25:12 +0000 Suz 1511908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's obvious, Elizabeth -- we simply have to bump up our winter wardrobes so we can also go through that season without doing laundry. &nbsp;;) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-summer-numbers#post-1511906 Sat, 27 Jun 2015 17:19:50 +0000 Elizabeth P 1511906@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the way you think Suz. A warm conference in the winter... that is good for about 30 wears... so about 60 days long, just so I can actually get all my tops dirty in a year :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-summer-numbers#post-1511900 Sat, 27 Jun 2015 17:04:51 +0000 Suz 1511900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Too funny! Closet maximalists unite!&nbsp;</p> <p>I am telling myself that summer is longer here. In truth it did start in May this year. Yippee! (Let's hope that doesn't mean it ends in August.)</p> <p>The thing is, how does this compare to winter numbers? Because our winters certainly make up for it in length.&nbsp;</p> <p>Jeweled is totally on the right track. So you need to travel to warm places for WORK as well as fun in winter! Time to think up a conference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-summer-numbers#post-1511889 Sat, 27 Jun 2015 16:18:51 +0000 Jeweled 1511889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-summer-numbers#post-1511883 Sat, 27 Jun 2015 15:42:13 +0000 Elizabeth P 1511883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh no Jeweled... this is just my WORK tops.&nbsp; Ones I'm likely to wear on weekends, evenings, and beach vacations is a whole different category.&nbsp; One with probably a worse outcome....&nbsp; Not sure I want to go there.&nbsp; :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-summer-numbers#post-1511849 Sat, 27 Jun 2015 14:21:13 +0000 Jeweled 1511849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Elizabeth, you just need to take a beach vacation in mid-winter.&nbsp; That will be a great opportunity to give your lovely summer clothes some extra wearings!&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-summer-numbers#post-1511831 Sat, 27 Jun 2015 13:41:18 +0000 frannieb 1511831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow enlightening post and a way to look at a summer wardrobe through the numbers.

Your numbers put mine to shame But in my defense our summer lasts from March to October so I still have plenty of time to wear everything. </p> <p>And yet...I have a list to shop sales. I sincerely hope my eyes do not home on to anything SO-cute or just-too-pretty-to-resist while I pick the things on my list.
