The
rainy season is back again and in this part of the world, we know that this
means a heavy downpour at least every day. The best part of the season is
staying home watching movies, wrapped in warm blankets and sipping hot beverage.
But the reality is that our lives goes on just the same; only difference is, we
have the rains to deal with.

Sweaters
Sweaters
Unless
you don’t carrying a blanket everywhere you go and you have a job that allows you
to bring a blanket to work, then you are advised to get a sweater to protect
yourself from cold. It doubles as a blanket and a cuddle buddy with no strings
attached. *winks*

reveal the colour and outline of our underwear. How cool would it be if the
entire street knew that you were wearing your favourite red panties? Try
wearing neutral coloured underwear to avoid this.
