Dutch “Summer” Outfit Drawing

"Lucky dress" Mangomini

How To Dress For The Dutch Summer (a.k.a. Cold And Rainy Weather).

I’m trying to fight off a cold by drinking lots of fresh mint and ginger tea with honey. Also, I’m eating a lot of chocolate, because that always helps as well 😉 I’m wearing my first ever Primark item (I’m not proud). I had to layer it with warm tights and a big cardigan, to stay warm enough for the Dutch summer weather. The best news is that I managed to get tickets to see Ben Howard in November, YAY!!
