Kari and Mac, Khris's blue dress is beautiful and does look so cool and refreshing!</p> <p> Kari, your dress is beautiful and is perfect for this hot summer weather. I love how you paired it with the yellow shoes and turquoise necklace. I really like your top in the second picture. Where did you get it?</p> <p>Yes, I did feel cool and comfortable the whole day in D.C. and I did see a ton of tourists wearing shorts and capris with tees and sneakers. My fav sandals were great for walking and I think we must have walked about 5 or 6 miles total before the day was done. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-you-wearing-to-beat-the-heat#post-83157 Fri, 31 Jul 2009 00:53:03 +0000 Mac 83157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You both look lovely. I especially love the colour of Deborah's green dress - fresh and pretty like a new leaf - and Chewy's blue dress - like a cool drink of water. Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-you-wearing-to-beat-the-heat#post-83121 Thu, 30 Jul 2009 22:41:48 +0000 Kari 83121@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Debora, I think your DC picture should be used as example of how tourists can stay cool and comfortable for sightseeing but still be 100% stylish. You look great!</p> <p>Khris, you have such an awesome collection of warm-weather appropriate dresses. I love the neckline on the pretty blue one. I'd gladly send a little of our heat over to you if you are craving wearing them.</p> <p>I have been wearing dresses that I'd normally pair with leggings (like <a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iFHBqlIPD1E/SnIFiPCNKvI/AAAAAAAABQM/fefENhZwbpo/s1600-h/IMG_+432b.jpg">this one</a>) or clamdiggers with lightweight tops (like <a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_iFHBqlIPD1E/SnCjzRwSOCI/AAAAAAAABP8/sH06P6wydds/s1600-h/IMG_+417b.jpg">this</a>) and rotating between pairs of sandals. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-you-wearing-to-beat-the-heat#post-83115 Thu, 30 Jul 2009 21:42:21 +0000 Anonymous 83115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You both look great and very cool and polished. Well done! Thanks for the inspiration.<br /> I am so happy that YLF has reintroduced me to wearing dresses for more than just fancy occasions.</p> <p>P.S. And yes I am wearing a dress because it is too darn hot to wear anything else. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-you-wearing-to-beat-the-heat#post-83111 Thu, 30 Jul 2009 21:30:14 +0000 Debora 83111@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Maya! What you can't see in that Brooklyn Bridge picture is the huge thunderstorm that was getting ready to roll over our heads! We kept looking over our shoulders and seeing lightening bolts over Manhattan. Luckily we beat the storm and ducked into Grimaldi's under the bridge for pizza while we waited it out!</p> <p>Khris, you look so polished and put together and prepared for the heat. I love all your outfits. Thanks for sharing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-you-wearing-to-beat-the-heat#post-83056 Thu, 30 Jul 2009 16:44:27 +0000 chewyspaghetti 83056@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's not really hot here right now, but here are the outfits that I turn to when it is (loose cotton dresses and flat sandals):</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/chewyspaghetti/3709288221/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/c.....709288221/</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/chewyspaghetti/3684610424/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/c.....684610424/</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/chewyspaghetti/3710099156/" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/photos/c.....710099156/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-you-wearing-to-beat-the-heat#post-83054 Thu, 30 Jul 2009 16:39:42 +0000 Maya 83054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not wearing anything special at the moment, but you sure did make me miss my bi-weekly walks across the Manhattan bridge.

Feels fab). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-are-you-wearing-to-beat-the-heat#post-83038 Thu, 30 Jul 2009 16:07:33 +0000 Debora 83038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think someone mentioned yesterday starting a thread where we could post what we are wearing to stay cool so I thought I would start us off!</p> <p>The summers are pretty hot where I live so I am all about skirts and sleeveless dresses with sandals. When the temp is 90 degrees plus, I can't tolerate layers or anything around my neck. Usually I'm just wearing my gold hoops for jewelery and forgoing necklaces.</p> <p>So, here's what I'm wearing:</p> <p>For sightseeing in D.C. last week:<br /> Linen skirt from Talbots, Tracy Firth for Target sleeveless top, Van Eli sandals and BCBG sunglasses</p> <p><a href="http://i658.photobucket.com/albums/uu303/debora517/WashingtonDCAug2009012-1-1.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i658.photobucket.com/al.....12-1-1.jpg</a></p> <p>Walking across the Brooklyn Bridge in NYC:<br /> Dress from Macys, Abaete for Payless bag<br /> <a href="http://i658.photobucket.com/albums/uu303/debora517/NYCMGMT009-1.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i658.photobucket.com/al.....T009-1.jpg</a></p> <p>Running errands around town (today):<br /> brown sleeveless cotton dress from Steinmart, Van Eli sandals, Abaete for Payless bag</p> <p><a href="http://i658.photobucket.com/albums/uu303/debora517/brownsheath003.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i658.photobucket.com/al.....ath003.jpg</a></p> <p>I'm staying cool, how about you?
