Women especially, have a choice these days to be classy and cover it up or trendy and terrible.
The time is totally ripe for everyone who wears clothes to wake up and take a mental test about the way you've been dressing lately and the way you've been wearing your hair. Just because the latest fashion trend looks like you've been poured into your clothes doesn't mean it looks good or fits right on you. The only people I know that look good when their clothes look like they have been painted on them are when they walk on the beach and even then, you have to consider your age and body type, unless of course you fall under the category of not really caring what you look like anyway.
What's with wearing shirts two sizes too small and unbuttoned enough to see your underwear and your cleavage? Who started this horrible trend anyway? Just because everyone is wearing it, doesn't mean you have to go with the flow. In fact, you can take a stand and be classy by covering up. Why would you not want to leave anything to a man's imagination? Mystery is the art of romance and modesty is the protection of chastity. With this truth, wouldn't it be not only wise but clever to cover up?
I have seen women of all ages wear buttoned down shirts not buttoned and fit so tightly to their chest; you can see every ripple of fat and everything else underneath. In the back you can see outlines of their fat because of the low rise jeans they wear, with their tummy's hanging over their buckles, that is, if they wear the buckles. White blouses with red or black bras are the order of the day, but definitely far from a class act. When your girlfriend comes up to you and your husband wearing these skin tight outfits it is like a slap in your face as she shows off her wares to your husband. What kind of friend is that anyway? Who needs them!
The classy way to wear your blouse would be to wear a beige bra under the white blouse, in that way it cannot even be seen and keep it buttoned up; you will keep others guessing about you. Can you actually dare to be different in this liberal world where "everything goes?" The word respectful has gone far from our way of life and our vocabulary and has been replaced with the word of "loose." I say loose because the hairstyles reflect the clothes we are wearing. The less we can wear and get away with today in what we wear, the more we rebelliously try to show of ourselves.
