I’ve seen a lot of articles online of late listing what’s hot and what’s not in the world of summer fashion. Nothing too shocking, really — white, crochet and color blocking are all the rage.
Can I add my own entry to the ‘what’s not’ list?
SUNBURNS
Especially since the July 4th holiday weekend, I have seen more folks walking around my neighborhood burnt to a crisp.
And I’m sorry — there’s just no excuse for it.
In this day and age where there is a different sunscreen and sunblock lotion or cream for every skin type, time of day, and SPF imaginable, that kind of blood-red, all-over burn is unacceptable.
Sure, we’ve all gotten burnt ‘around the edges’ where we’ve missed rubbing in the lotion from time to time. But not putting on any protection…when you’re out in the sun at the beach or on the boat all day?
That’s just stupid.
And don’t give me the ol’ song-and-dance about you doing this ‘all the time,’ or that ‘it fades into a tan.’
I’ll have to smack you in the sunburn.
