Sleeping on the balcony?

Sleeping on the balcony is not everyone’s cup of the tea. But read about this Swedish lady who cures her sleeping problems by doing just that. All year around apart from when snowstorms, massive downpours and temperatures below -10 C prevents her from doing so.

What to say – it’s a free world and people do what they want. Extremes aside, however, it’s getting colder at night. And getting into a cold bed in one’s birthday suit is not the most tempting thought.

Which is where nightwear comes into the picture. Boudoir glamour and outfits that set your partner’s pulses racing may have their moments. A comfortable night’s sleep is not one of them. At least not in my books.

Being a practical girl I like cotton nightwears. They are wonderfully soft, warmish and durable. And then there are silk nightwares. Just to put some contradiction into the equation. Expensive, not so durable but oh so nice on the skin. Not to mention the luxurious associations, including looks. Looks always matter – even when you’re sleeping . On the balcony or not.

A tights’ dilemma.

Golly gosh how trivial can things get?  Woke up today contemplating if it would be too adventurous to wear my Iridescent Back Seam Calvin Klein tights that I bought on sale last spring. On a Monday and all.

Wasn’t really up to anything special but try to make an effort regardless. After some deliberation I came to the conclusion that as they are 60 denier tights they wouldn’t be causing too much of a stir when out and about.

Where does the sex appeal of back seam tights come from anyway? Who knows and who cares? The only thing that crossed my mind during the day is that it pays to make sure the back seam is straight. Otherwise your legs look, well, a tad wonky.
