DoubleTake

Feature by Dylan Reed | 06 Jan 2008

Scottish winters are crap: they're long, black, and know how to get to your chilly-bones no matter how many layers you sport. Scottish girls are crap too, 'cause they never go out without any underwear on, when clearly the weather means it doesn't make the blindest bit of difference. Now, we don't want to responsible for the biggest surge in hypothermia since records began, nor be accused of flagrant sexism, but check out these photos and tell us layers combined with glimpses of lady-flesh aren't hot as hell. Plus, we're happy to acknowledge that girls look magic all wrapped up in baggy boys' togs. Before you even know it it'll be summer, and guys'll be sitting outside pubs with no shirts on, catching tan and checking each other out. All is fair and glorious…
