French Women Find Creative Ways to Keep Cool During the Summer

French Secret #8
Bonjour August!  Bonjour Heat Wave!
No matter how far the temperature rises, French Women find creative ways to keep cool.
They'll leave their city and head out for the seashore--often for the entire month of August.
And, they'll also be sure to bring their pretty silk hand fans, cool cotton white dresses and
beaucoup de joie de vivre!
C'est trés jolie, non?
What do you do to keep cool during August?
I'd love to hear!

  1. I'm wearing my summer white dress too! It's high summer in New England and I'm pulling out all the stops. I won't even discuss fall which will have it's arms wrapped around us soon enough.

    1. Dear Donna--Thank you so much for writing! I can just imagine you in summer white! I love how you say "fall which will have its arms wrapped around us." So poetic! I also adored your recent posts about fall clothes, teachers who dress like grown-ups and the fashion inspiration of Love Story. We are on the same page! Oh, and I did call Green Ink, but never received a return call. C'est la vie! Wishing you a lovely August! xo Jamie
