Recently I've been thinking about summer, and about hot weather, and how my wardrobe is in a sad, sad state and needs serious work

.

And especially about how when I roll up dress sleeves because of the heat or to work, it just doesn't look like the pictures, because my smock sleeves show when I roll up my dress sleeves and the period pictures don't.

And so I groused, until it hit me.
