Dressing for the heat

Only two of us were in today and we'd both decided to dress for hot weather. My colleague had opted, for the first time every, for short sleeves having decided that risks of roasting to death outweighed any potential concerns he might have about showing off his extensive tattoos.

I, on the other hand, had settled on a shorts and t-shirt combo that I thought, when I was getting dressed, made me look suitably preppy. Sadly, when I got into the office, I caught sight of myself in the mirror and realised that I looked exactly like I was dressed for the beach, albeit a beach of the smart and preppy variety.
