We all think we know about the best clothing to wear in the summer. There are certain basic faux pas we know to avoid, such as not wearing socks with sandals, wearing a handkerchief on your head or having a kiss me quick hat that you purchased in a moment of madness in Blackpool. However, there are still certain things we need to be aware of.
First of all, covering up is very important. The pink lobster look is not attractive, as is white strap areas around that area. As well as not being a great look, it also increases the risk of malignant melanoma and other very dangerous skin cancers, so it pays to be sensible. The general guidelines with sun bathing is to not be out in exposed sunlight for around 45 minutes to an hour and to make sure your sunblock factor matches your skin tone. If you are fair skinned, be aware that you will burn quicker than people with darker skin tones.
The pear shape is where the upper body is smaller than the lower part of the body, especially around the hips and thighs. They tend to have a longer neck and narrower shoulders as well. The best clothes are ones that highlight and maximize the shoulders and waist to balance out the lower part of the body. Clothes like halter tops and wrap dresses tend to flatter the figure best. With footwear, it is best to avoid stiletto heels with thinner heels being better for the overall look.
Many people make the mistake of assuming that value for money means getting the cheapest stuff possible. However, in this instance it is vital to get the most from your hiking clothes. Any clothes that wear out easily will cause discomfort. These clothes should be sturdy for any rough terrain.
Next you have to decide what kind of clothes you want. This will of course depend on the type of terrain you are going along and the conditions of the day. Like any holiday clothing, it pays to be sensible and prepare for anything. With your hiking clothes, synthetic materials are often a good idea as they will keep you dry. This is because unlike cotton a synthetic material will move sweat to the outside of the material, allowing it to evaporate more quickly and thus be more comfortable to wear. There are both loose and tight fitting hiking shirts depending on your preference.
For those with a fuller figure, there are numerous choices to help you get the most out of summer. Neutral and pale shades are flattering, while ethnic and natural print patterns will help you stand out, as will some well chosen accessories to go alongside them. With these kinds of clothes, it is important to get the right size, as a size smaller or bigger will not help you highlight your curves.
A lot of this guide assumes you are on vacation. If you have to wear formal clothing, say for work or even a social occasion this can be problematic. The first thing to do is check your dress code as there is no sense getting into trouble over fashion! If possible light and pastel colored suits are ideal as they will draw away heat and look very flattering.
With any advice with clothing it is important to find a look that suits you. However, following these guidelines should ensure you get the most from your clothes. Remember, if any doubt it helps to discuss this with your tailor or shop fitter.
