Ok, so as of yesterday, I am just returning from a vacation in Cancun and this post comes out of necessity -- I have been witness to a few fashion/style crimes that make this post fun to share!
- Mismatched but matching tops and bikini bottoms are a YES...at least you have something on!
- Men in speedos is very European -- and some style tips we can leave there!
- One piece bathing suits can be sexy -- you just need to show a little more skin (think cutout)
- (Ladies) If you haven't participated in the waxing or epilation process, you should NOT have a bikini on!
- They make bikini skirts for days when everything isn't quite perfect -- use them
- Notwithstanding that suntan lotion can make you feel a little "slick", applying it to your private areas should be done in private!
- Fellas- buy swim trunks that fit not ones that require you to openly "readjust" because they're too small or hold on for 'dear life' because they're too big
- Use sunscreen especially on your face -- it does NOT stop you from tanning just from turning into a prune at 45!
- If you are of Caucasian descent and you're darker than the African-American sitting next to you-- call it quits! If you are African-American and your skin is starting to look almost purple-- you've had too much sun!!
- Americans are a little too caught up about their bodies -- here we can take a hint from the Europeans and just enjoy the sun and our bodies!!
My vacation was great so I wanted to share a few friendly reminders for those who were heading out into the sun to ensure yours would be fun too! Did I get forget anything?.
