We get it. You're hot, you're sweaty, and you're just trying to get through the day without your makeup melting off. Maybe looking stylish isn't really at the top of your mind right now—and we don't blame you. But thanks to a question on Vogue's "Go Ask Anna" video series, we know the simple essential that Anna Wintour approves of for staying chic on the sweatiest of summer days: sleeveless dresses. How could it be any easier than that?

In the video, Wintour was also asked if she ever wears sweatpants, to which she simply answered a firm no. Wintour also confessed that one thing has ruined her love of shopping: fans thrusting their phones in her face asking for selfies. "Shopping, which is something I used to love, has been slightly ruined for me by people wanting to take selfies," she says in the video. It's certainly understandable, but we're not sure we'd be able to resist the urge either.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
