The Heat Dilemma
(Original Title: 熱的問題)
In this blazing heat, it feels as if the very fabric we wear mocks us with its weight and oppressiveness. Yet, choices in light and airy textiles can transform this burden into a refreshing embrace. Opt for materials that let your skin breathe and colors that reflect rather than absorb the sun’s relentless rays. Consider airy whites and pastels, with accents of black for a touch of elegance. This way, we blend comfort with style, ensuring that our wardrobe is both a refuge and a statement in these sweltering times.
