These summer items we need to ban
Summer clothing can be pulled out of the closet again and although I really enjoy all the colorful outfits on the street, I have also spotted some rather ugly items that might as well be banned from our wardrobe. Forever.
It's about those striking items that I've never really understood why they were designed in the first place, and yet I see them return every summer. A shame, if you ask me. Well, let's ban the items below for everyone's sake:
The colored tunic incorporated into a T-shirt
Let me start by saying that I can find those loose tunics very elegant, especially if they are made of soft blouse-like fabrics. But unfortunately, there was someone (a devilish person) who thought it was a good idea to incorporate the colorful pattern of such a tunic into a T-shirt. And not just any T-shirt, but a super tight T-shirt. Well, I just really don't think this is good, for anyone. And the worst part: I see this item is often worn in combination with three-quarter pants. Brrr.
Roman sandals
I had them myself too, those Roman sandals, but I was done with them after wearing them twice. Do you know how long it takes to get those things on? But that's beside the point, because here comes the thing: as soon as your feet and legs swell from the heat, you suddenly look like a walking roulade in these shoes. Believe me: nobody is happy about that.
Three-quarter pants and leggings
I just mentioned the infamous three-quarter pants. Whether you are a man or a woman: please don't do it, because it's just a really bad idea. Just like the three-quarter leggings with a lace edge: let it go, there are really alternatives. And I'm not talking about the alternative where you roll your pants up four times, creating the same effect of three-quarter horror.
The tiny swimsuit
I admit: I recently ordered the swimsuit below myself. Why? No idea actually, I was just curious about how it would look on me. Well, I can tell you it really didn't look good. Just to be sure, I even ordered a size larger, but still this swimsuit looked like one big production error. Aside from the fact that it was completely stuck in my butt crack, my breasts also popped out from underneath. I wouldn't know for whom such swimsuits are made.
The plastic flip-flop
I've talked about the plastic flip-flop before and yet you keep wearing them. And it gets worse: in addition to the plastic flip-flops, plastic clogs have also hit the market, a sort of newer variant of Crocs. Really, it hurts my eyes, the health shoe is nothing compared to it.
The cycling shorts
This trend just won't disappear. I also have a few in my closet, but I really only use them for exercising on these kinds of warm days. I just can't believe that cycling shorts are a fashion statement today. Let's put an end to that as soon as possible.
