plain white tee.

Tee: Forever 21.  Shorts: Ross.  Shoes/Belt: Target.
When I asked Mr. Husband to snap a few pictures of me yesterday evening, he responded with, “Are you really going to blog that outfit?”  Huh.  I looked down at myself. Yeah, I guess it’s pretty vanilla.  But this is what I really wore.  I’m not fabulous everyday. I know, big surprise.  
But I get a lot of questions about how I dress in the hades-like heat we have in Arizona.
And sometimes, this is all I can come up with.
I’ve been seeing facebook posts all day about how summer has finally arrived.
We’ve been blasting summer for months here.
It was 108 yesterday.  
I don’t even want to talk about July.
Yesterday miss Hannah told me that summer is boring.
I kind of have to agree with her.
In Arizona, summer is boring.  
You are either swimming, like totally submersed in water, or you are doing something inside.
Anything else is just too hot.
I send my kids out back to play and they come in with red faces and heat exhaustion in five minutes.
And heat like that turns me into a minimalist.
Or, basically, a boring dresser.
Nothing but a plain white tee and shorts.

    I’m kind of obsessed with plain white t’s…I think I have 6 of the same scoop neck white t’s from the Rack that I wear all the time and they are especially great with layering…

    I have to TOTALLY agree with you: Summer’s boring. Here in Eastern WA we are having so much darn pollen that my poor hubs can’t go outside. So no picnics for us; no playing outside, no going anywhere… it’s boring.

    Thank you!!!! Summer in Texas is just as unbearable and humid!!! I’m NOT a summer fanatic, and I feel so left out of all of the happy summer blogs I keep reading lately. I’m a total minimalist in the summer, too. Short shorts and tank tops is about it.
