Oh, and keep in mind that I'm not yet even wearing my cheesecloth over my hat. That's when I really get serious.
In the first and third photos I am modeling this year's HOT garden fashions. An old, frayed Ralph Lauren blue jean shirt that once belonged to my son, a pair of 10 year old drawstring khakis from Sams Club and my hot, Hot, HOT designer garden boots. They are so hot that they make my poor tootsies stink to High Heaven. The straw hat was once designer but having seen better days, is now forced to slave away in the garden, instead of attending Garden Parties or Sunday Brunch.... In the heat.
In the second photo I am modeling much the same attire, with only a change of top. This is another retired shirt that came down with some sort of measles from our washer, which was never explainable. The other one became unbearable & disgusting, alright?
So, while I slave away in the heat of the garden, Mr. Snooty is merrily taking pictures of me because he thinks I look funny. In my opinion, I look practical. Hey, there's lots of bugs out there with MY NAME on their lists. Enough Said.

Awww. I think you look cute. And smart. No bugs and no skin cancer. Yup, smart.
You look exactly like a gardener should! Very nice! I think i hate being hot more than bugs so I don't think I could do it.
Hey you need to cover up! All you need is mosquito bites and sunburn...that's horrible right.
I vote for the outfit!
I love your garden clothes, it keeps you out of the sun, which will keep your complexion beautiful and youthful. So while Mr. Snooty laughs at you, tell him you will always looks young while he looks like an old man raisin.
I see nothing wrong with that outfit to fight against the bugs. LOL. LOL. Really like the mismatched gloves.
No bug fear here. But I still wear either clothes or sunscreen myself. I could never look as lovely as you though.
I think you need to draft Mr. Snooty as your garden helper. He's getting off too easy!
UGH I hate bugs too .. and refuse to visit friends who live in the burbs because I know I will get bitten or crawled on .. gross ... I think the ensemble is tres chic and will keep you bug free AND out of the sun .. so your skin will look young longer ..
It is good he no longer laughs/farts or he might propel himself flat on his butt and then who'd be laughing/taking pix?

Thanks everybody. I apologize that today I've not been able to visit other blogs. I'm trying to research some gorgeous cocktail glasses from the early 1900's that I found at an estate sale. Also, some antique sterling silver silver pieces I found. This could take days.
Too hot! Too hot! I'm known to garden in jeans, but I always regret it.
Have fun with your antiques!

Love it! Can I call you Maxine now?
