7. The Wrong Type/Color Underwear

And this is probably the most common summer fashion DON'T. Pink underwear with white skirts, neon bras with see-through tops, lacy outlines in skin-tight white pants, and now I'm just shaking my head at the long list of no-nos. Go feel and be sexy in a nude thong -- it can be a wonderful thing.

6. Super Short Shorts

I'd like to believe this mistake ends around age 21, but not so. I know it's hot out, but there's a fine line between underwear and shorts -- and that line is the bottom crease of your tush.

5. Mixed Season Trends (Specifically UGGS with Skirts)

OK, we have bear paws as feet on the bottom accompanied by booty-showing skirts on top. Since when was this ever the style? This goes for all winter-summer combos, like beanie hats, sweatshirts, knee-high boots and oh, the list goes on.

4. Baby String Bikinis

I know it's intended to be cute, not shocking, but it is the latter. Exposing your baby to all the sun exposure is just as bad as the skin exposure. Can we please let a kid be a kid?

3. Exposed Bra Straps

 ...Or in this case, an exposed bra. It's become almost admissible to have bra straps peeking out from tank tops -- and it's almost always the dingy-looking bra that's been washed too many times -- but can we agree that this looks flattering on no one? Ladies, the strapless bra exists.

2. High Fashion Bathing Suits

 If you're buying an $800 swimsuit that you're not even sure should get wet, we need to talk. And what's up with the tan lines you'll be toting around the next day? Not cute.

1. Socks & Sandals

I have no words. Just stop it. I mean, seriously?

Make a Fashion Statement with Longines Watches


Longines is one of those companies that is so technologically advanced that it’s responsible for launching many technological breakthroughs in the world of watch making. The company manages to do this while still having a firm hold on elegance and style.
 The company was created in 1832 in Saint-Imier, Switzerland. Longines watches are known for their unique combination of precision and elegance. The company’s tagline in its advertising is very suitable: “Elegance is an attitude.”
 Anyone wearing a Longines watch is justified in having an attitude. Not only do they get an elegant, well-crafted timepiece with a timeless contemporary style, but they also have the distinct honour of wearing a watch from a company that has made history many times over.
