How to turn shorts into a skirt. Green found outfit. Dress of the day 331.

 

Dress of the day 331. Photo by Trevor Sharot.

I slit the shorts from the crotch to both knee hems. The turn-up was large, so I let it down to make a longer skirt.

The Green Top By Ralph Lauren

The man's top was long. I did not like the casual sporty neck with a skirt. So I added a dicky or false shirt front with a collar in  plain white which matched the plain white pattern. Navy blue, or white, would also have been good combination colours.

The label is Polo by Ralph Lauren. Size medium. Feel very hot in Singapore, especially when worn under a belted skirt or shorts, instead of hanging loose on top.

The Polo Player Logo

The logo is tiny, a polo player on horseback, astride a galloping horse. The rider has his stick raised above his head prior to striking the invisible ball. The logo is dark orange. If I had realized that, I would have worn my orange Crocs. Size Medium.

White Cotton Half Slip

White Cape Blazer

Blue and Green Flip-flops

For once the casual footwear of flip-flops, as we say in the UK, seems appropriate.
