Keeping cool on a hot day....Washington, DC

It reached over 100 degrees Fahrenheit in DC on the day I took this picture yet this young woman looks cool and effortless. Notice the sleeves of her dress. They are corded.

Both in DC, and here in Beantown, I’ve been seeing some foolishness out there during the heat wave. Time to lay down the law…Tini’s Law.

Tini Law #3658
In summer, especially during a heat wave. Leave the boots (cowboy boots, Uggs, etcetera), the leggings, the trousers (jeans included) at home. Wear clothes made of breathable fabrics such as cotton, linen, and seersucker.

Tini Law #3659
In summer, especially during a heat wave, opt for sandals, but please do yourself a favor, either give yourself a pedicure or pay for one (men and women included). If your toes are looking ragged and crusty, they shouldn’t be displayed in public.
