Summer prints

I just checked and my last outfit post was on the 25th of Feb, exactly a month before! What was I doing all this while?  I’ve basically been cooped up indoors, working, painting away to glory, reading and writing a bit, drowning one fresh fruit juice after another, and not wanting to step out thanks to the soaring temperatures. Although the heat is still on the bearable side, I shudder to think what the coming months are going to bring. Summer always makes people dream about beaches, sipping drinks by the pool and lazing around. And I’ve never understood why. The beaches that I know of in India, specially in the summer months, are hot as hell, crowded, humid and did I mention hot? My mind always wanders off to cooler places, maybe a lovely cottage at a hill station, some place where I can breathe and not feel like the clothes am wearing are trying to melt my skin away!The right kind of clothing in summer is a must for me. Only then can I be comfortable and function like a normal human being. Else, I start biting people’s heads off. Skirts and dresses are great for hot weather, but not for every place and occasion. So every summer I am on the lookout for light, cotton trousers as an alternative to jeans and leggings. Luckily this time I managed to grab a couple of them before they disappeared off the racks, and I am so ready to over-use and wear them to death this entire summer – starting right below! 🙂
