I could be mistaken of course, but I could have sworn that summer was long behind us. Feels like it anyway. But it’s been pretty cold lately I’m sure. Or maybe I’m just some freak. Though given that I live in Britain I can be pretty certain that it’s hardly what most people would consider warm out there. Anyhow, I bring up the subject of the cold weather because yesterday in town I saw some woman in a little denim mini skirt. She wore no tights or leggings or anything like that. She was totally rocking the frost bitten legs look. Seriously. You could see every last goose bump. They were bright red. Now, I’m not condemning mini skirts in winter, but wear them with something please. Mottled legs are not a particularly good look. And her legs didn’t even have any remnant of tan, fake or otherwise. The bits that weren’t red were white. And I know all about pasty legs, as mine could possibly be the pastiest pair in Britain. That’s why I hate baring them, though I did manage to tan a little this summer. My legs are too pasty to do the fake tan thing. No matter how even I think I’ve spread it, I always end up with streaks. Grrr.
Anyway, the message I want to convey is that it’s cold out there now. Cover up. It’s allowed. And stuff anyone who says otherwise. I fully intend to live in giant chunky knit jumpers for the next few months.
