Are You Dressing Too Sexy For Summer?

By Hello Beautiful June 30, 2009 11:00 am

As summer heats up so do, of course, our wardrobe choices.  Sweltering temperatures obviously call for fewer clothes, but where is the line between dressing less and looking a mess? Here are some signs that you or someone you know might need to tone down your summer sizzle:

1. You’re rocking a bikini top-but you’re not at the beach. No, I’m not saying laying around tanning somewhere besides the beach in a bikini is bad. Or strolling around a beach boardwalk. But walking down the street doing errands while partially in your bikini? Come on now.

Bikini or not, it’s still better to be a woman! Read why here.

2. Forget second-you get third and fourth looks. Almost every woman has her daily “elevator” look from some man (you know, his eyes go up and down your body like an elevator). But if you see jaws drop as well as eyes linger, it might be time to invest in a sweater.

Clean up your style AND get rid of fruit flies?? Read more here.

3. Your short shorts could double as underwear. Maybe it’s just me, but isn’t it annoying to have to play the pull down game every five seconds with your shorts just so that they’ll cover your, um, back end? What ever happened to the good old fashioned sundress??

What do you think, Hello Beautiful? Is there such a thing as being too sexy for summer??

    true, but decent women sow nothing above the knees. one year it’s ” i wear what i wanna wear” and now some1 wants to cover it up. it’s about time. do i look? yep but i know that all i want is a sample not the marriage of this kind of woman who can always claim”i was like that when you met me”. it’s too dangerous to wear the ‘i go to the highest bidder dress nowaday.

    I love to see girls in the summer walking around looking their best.But some girl’s women take it to the extreme.You know who you are “Big Uns” Trying to wear the “I wish i was a lil’ girl Outfit’s” That’s just wrong…sickening! If you’ve got a man leave something at home,for your man’s imagination!He’d definately appreciate that..I know i would if i had a woman! Damn i love to see a fine ass dark dark chocolate, Asian and a freckled faced Red head looking good…OMG! Sam B Ohio

    Ok, I agree with everybody. However if you put it on you already know what it is strut. Ladies we used to have girlfriends who would tell us the truth. We need to get back to that.

    OK ME AS A BLACK MALE AGREE. WOMEN DRESS SEXY ALL THE TIME BUT DONT KNOW THE DAMN LIMIT. SOON SEXY BECOMES S**TTY. LIKE THE BIKINI, IF YOUR WEARING A VISUAL BIKINI AND THERE AINT A DROP OF WATER FOR MILES THEN THATS DRESSIN S**TTY. AS WELL, WOMEN YALL NEED TO TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION YOUR BODY TYPE.LEGGINS, TO ME SEEMS LIKE AN EXCUSE TO NOT REALLY WEAR ANYTHING, THEY DONT HOLD ANYTHING IN PLACE, THEY DONT PROVIDE HEAT OR ANYTHING AND THEYRE SO FORM FITTING YOU MAY AS WELL BE WEARING A COAT OF PAINT…OOPS LET ME NOT SAY THAT TOO LOUD SOME W***E WOULD TRY IT. IF YOUR REALLY CURVY OR GOT MORE ASS THEN THE WILLIAMS SISTERS THEN YOUR BOOTY SHORTS SHOULDNT BE THE SAME SIZE AS A GIRL WITH ALOT LESS. THAT GOES THE SAME FOR THE SUN DRESS. I KNOW I KNOW THERES NOTHING REALLY SHOWING. BUT WHEN YALL WOMEN WITH BIG ASSES PUT ON A SUN DRESS WITH CLOSE TO NO TYPE OF ASS SUPPORT UNDER IT, EVERYTHING JIGGLES, DONT GET ME WRONG IT IS ATTRACTIVE, BUT YOU LOOK LOOSER THEN LIL KIM…THIS ALL GOES BACK TO THE FACT THAT EVERYONE CANT WEAR EVERYTHING.

    Yes, I dont call it sexy once you get pass the point of a mess. You have crossed over in to s**ty. What gets me is you know that dress is to short or those shorts ride your ass when you left the house dont get out in the street and continue to pull and tug at them now. You will turn heads the right way if you dress your age, and your body size.
    Please black women, please lets keep it sexy and sassy for the summer.
