Brown monochrome in white heat

Everything appears washed out at the height of noon. Makes me long for clear, white sand and the sea breeze.

In the meantime I have to settle with the breezy sheer shirt I recently bought in Pasig (matched with the equally recent maroon brogues) just to be able to pick up the slightest dips in temperature.

Summer is, after all, the season to bare skin.

Yes, the shirt was itchy as feared, but by the middle of the day that didn't bother me anymore. What I noticed more was the fabric air-conditioning and my shirt's perfect fit. As suggested when I bought it, it goes very well with these Martin Margiela wool-cotton trousers — with wool more for the texture combination than for insulation!
