[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I also stress about sunburns but it’s really hard to balance that concern against being cool in July/August. I have a few linen dresses with high necks and sleeves and I love them and they are lightweight, but even those I can’t tolerate in midsummer. In addition to being pale, I’m prone to heat rashes and even a 100% natural fabric can give me one if I’m sweating enough.[/quote] I agree with this. So many of the recommendations are high neck. I wonder how much time some of these folks spend outside in DC summer. I am the type of person who is cold at temperatures below 80 degrees, and even I can’t bear to have fabric on my neck during summers here.[/quote] I've started wearing higher necks or boat necks in the last year simply because no matter what, otherwise my chest will get fried. SPF 50 - whatever - it just burns. I look better and feel better in v neck or slightly lower, but at 50 I've decided that it just isn't worth the skin risk. [/quote]
