No matter how warm it gets outside

No matter how warm it gets outside, I always have to layer on the sweaters and leggings (and in this case, legwarmers) for work, thanks to the obnoxious use of excessive air-conditioning in my building and on public transit during the warm months. With global warming and all, shouldn't there be a law against that?

The outer layers get stripped off for the walk from my building to the bus stop, put back on for the bus ride (and I have a small fleece blanket in my shoulder bag in case even the layers aren't enough for the bus), and then taken back off for the walk from the bus stop to my apartment. This is SO ANNOYING.

  2. Oh, I hear you on this! Even on the hottest of days, I am not to be found without my cardigan. I'm almost looking forward to the age where hot flashes attack - would make a nice change.

  5. Nadine: Your courageous use of bright color combinations actually inspired some of my outfits such as this one! :-)

    Stuggler: I have wished for a hot flash on occasion, too. But I think we'll change our minds when that time comes!

    The Seeker and Jane: Thanks very much! I'm glad you like the colors together. I'd definitely never worn those exact hues together before this outift.
