Re: Anyone changing clothing choices now that Labor Day is here?

It will be over 105 F. all week here in the Lower Sonoran Desert of Arizona so the answer is no. Weather doesn't usually break until Halloween. White is OK year round out here.

Sitting here reading this in my favorite green Birkenstock sandals that I got from QVC probably 15 years ago.  With new black compression stockings and shorts. 

 

If you haven't tried Birkenstocks with compression stockings, you've got to give it a try.

Re: Anyone changing clothing choices now that Labor Day is here?

I never understood why some people think Summer is over after Labor Day.  it is not over until September 23 this year.

 

The weather dictates what I wear, not the calendar.  Most of my clothing can be worn year around...I am a fan of cotton.  I am wearing white capri's today with a navy 3/4 sleeve t-shirt.

 

My closet storage is huge and I do not have to switch out seasonal clothing, so no special planning is required.  I just grab and go.

@sidsmom, hmmm....socks with sandals? Are you sure? I guess I might have some rules after all. :-)

Athletes have no rules.

Hang with a lot of cyclists & soccer players...

Re: Anyone changing clothing choices now that Labor Day is here?

In Vegas, it is almost always summer.  I wear slides and sandals pretty much all year; as for clothes, everyone wears whatever is comfortable.It has been wicked hot all summer and that will continue until almost Thanksgiving.  The fashion police would fall over dead at some of the get-ups seen in public here.  So, no, those fashion rules just don't apply in the middle of the Mojave Desaert.

Woman LOL!

@GrailSeeker -

So funny! I just got compression stockings for me and my mom.

When I'm on the plane in the summer I have been known to wear both those stockings with sandals cause you know, I want to wear the sandals alone when I get there! And I defy anyone to tell me I am not a fashion plate lol!

Weather stays warm in central Midwest for quite a while. Takes a brisk turn before end of October. Third week in October is when I change seasons in my closet and inspect what I need to keep for next season. Give the items I haven't worn away.

Not me!  I live in the Southwest and it's still about 110 all this week.
