The Perfect Look for a Hot Summer's Day


July is coming to a close and the dog days of August are almost upon us.  Summer is speeding by.  Instead of complaining about the heat, I am determined to enjoy it while it's here.  The best way to do that is to dress appropriately for the weather.  Back in 1954, here is how one woman achieved cool perfection.  Her simple sheath dress by B.H. Wragge is made of linen.  She tops it off with a little straw hat that has a brim to shade her face.  She keeps jewelry to a minimum, but adds accessory flash with a well made handbag, this one by Josef.  As I said, perfection.
