A Summer Uniform

Now that the weekend is over, I'm back to feeling fully rested (after spending this weekend recovering from Memorial Day weekend) and back to feeling energized about well, everything. I'm finally settling into my apartment (thanks to my recent acquisition of a dresser that makes me feel like I'm living in a real place), I love my job and I'm getting to know my neighborhood. One thing I'm not quite enthused about is the impending hot weather that summer will bring. We went through a mini heat wave a couple weeks ago and I was just about dying in my mid-spring out-of-a-suitcase wardrobe. Though the temperatures have dropped since (and are currently, frankly, a bit chilly) that hasn't stopped me from developing a sense of impending doom about what surely will be scorching days of summer. So I've developed an ideal summer wardrobe for sweltering summer weekdays and weekends - equally fitting for the office, my commute (by foot or by subway) and for running around the city - featuring the sandals I've already started running into the ground.
