    Friends! Hello from the Logan Airport Delta Lounge! Shout out to the woman who told me my outfit was really cool. There’s nothing like an 8:30 a.m. compliment on your travel look to really get your day off to a great start. Long-time readers can probably predict what I’m wearing: a black linen shirt by Polo, Nili Lotan jeans, and Bally loafers. Love a consistent travel uniform, am I right?

    This week, I want to share three outfit formulas that have seen me through 100 degree heat wave days, intermittent rain showers, and all around tricky summer weather. Let’s get into it!

    FOR WHEN IT’S TOO HOT TO WEAR CLOTHES—BUT YOU HAVE TO ANYWAY

    Alas, you can’t go totally naked, but you can lean into airy or sporty separates you would be okay with sweating through when it's sweltering out.
