December 19. Brrr, cold. I get dressed.
Warm and comfortable underpants. (Read: that is capable of curbing any sexual initiative)
Triple padded bra, able to emerge from countless layers of clothing.
Long-sleeved doggie-style wool sweater.
Turtleneck sweater worked in giant ribs with knitting needles from size 12.
Thickest tights.
Peruvian hat lined with ecological rabbit.
