With the blazing sun approaching, yes, we allow you to wear less fabric. Looser clothing. Think, silks and lightweight cotton. But girls, less is not more. The tube top and short shorts style is the barely there outfit that screams hoochie. Please, wear the strapless bra when you’re in a tank top, no matter how uncomfortable you think it is. And while flip flops are comfortable and come in every color, they are not exactly the most fashionable outfit out there. Splurge on a Jimmy Choo sandal, or a pair of Manolo flats instead of thirty pairs hideously unflattering Crocs.

You can stay cool and covered at the same time. With long flowing summer dresses, you can catch the breeze, and probably the eye of that cute guy on the beach. Save your hot summer bikini bod for the beach, not the streets.
