  15. That outfit looks really nice:) Too bad it IS summer all year round here (trust me, “proper summers” aren’t fun twenty-four seven, threesixfive days a year!) so to wear tights like you do would be impractical…boo:(

    bane of my existence, although it pays me, so i have to be thankful that someone would employ me at least…
