Recently I've seen a fad at my school. The +Brandy Melville sundress. Being a girl who wouldn't be seen without jeans on, I was somewhat confused. It started like this. Everyone was wearing this same boring black dress that exposed some of the back. I saw at least three girls wearing that every day (IN MY GRADE ONLY). Well I guess these semi-casual, semi-sexual, black dresses went out of style, because a new kind of dress took it's place. The floral sundress. I guess stores like Brandy Melville decided to get creative. It started with form fitting dresses with some kind of generic flower print. Slowly it evolved to being of a hipster dress, as the flowers suggested. The skirt of these dresses was let out, becoming more comfortable, and the floral sundress was born. Still with these same generic flowers, I haven't seen a sundress for teenage girls since that doesn't have this pattern. So why does everyone want to where a sundress. Many arguments can be made, and it mainly just depend on your point of view. Living in SoCal, it tends to get hot this time of year. The flowy dress is a nice way to keep your body cool, instead of trying to force your holiday weight into a pair of too tight, too short, borderline bathing suit, jean shorts. For others, like many styles are, it is a way to express themselves. To show their feminine side if you will. Then there's people like me, yes even me, the girl who used to swear dresses were the devil, are wearing sundresses. By "people like me", I mean lazy people who normally don't care about appearance but still feel the need to look good every once in a while. Wearing a dress, to me, means not having to spend the extra ten minutes in the morning looking for a shirt that can barely fit over my boobs. Wearing a dress means no pants for the day!!! As many girls can a test to, pants can be a drag to wear. Sometimes it's nice to show some skin, instead of facing the uncomfortable sweat village that forms on my skin the hot days I wear skinny jeans. Mainly it just means, I can be comfortable. For those of you who don't like dresses, that's perfectly fine. Like I said, I used to hate them. The first day I wore one, I was extremely uncomfortable. But after a few times of wearing one, I grew to love them. So girls, don't be afraid to show those legs! Shaved or not, go buy yourself a sundress. +
