Shorts over Tights : It's a Do!

It's not at all practical to wear tights with shorts in the tropics, but for the sake of "a look", I've been faithfully enduring sunshine, 95% humidity and judging glances whilst buzzing around town in my favourite H&M shorts over Topshop opague tights and trusty Venetia from Rupert.

This pic from Garance Dore definitely vindicates all my potential discomfort! I'm not usually into the whole camo look but this seems a perfect way to do that without inducing G.I. Jane flashbacks.

Boyfriend, where are your army trousers?! I sense a weekend D.I.Y coming on :)
