Hot Child in the City

Shirt and Skirt: Target, Shoes: Sperry

What does one wear on a sweltering hot day in New York City? I was forced to answer that question myself this week when the temperature approached 100 degrees (though I think it might have peaked at 99). Clearly at some point in my decision making process I decided that one dresses like a ballerina on an acid trip - my brain was making some Black Swan allusions in my head, but really only because of the color and the tulle. Normally I wouldn't wear black on such a hot day, but with the top being sleeveless and the breezy material of the skirt, I felt fine about the dark shade.
