Public Exposure

25ling600.1a.jpgTwo decades have passed since Madonna first revealed her bra straps and everyone else followed suit. Boxers exposed by sagging pants is been one of the longest-lived trends of teenagerdom, probably because it so successfully annoys adults. So why does it take Marc Jacobs lingerie-infused collection for underwear exposure to be seen as some kind of major cultural movement? Beats us. [via the New York Times]

Considering all trends revolve, it is not surprising to see it again.

but the weird thing is, it's not like it's been a missing trend. anytime a woman wears a tank top there's a bra strap peeking out (i am guilty of this sin myself). thankfully we moved away from the exposed-thong look of the late 90s/early 00s. that was ill.

Bra straps peeking off a cami/tank top is ok in my book but white pants with black thong is a definite NO-NO.
