It doesn’t take a genius to know that a big part of college is going out on the weekends (or weekdays if your math exam doesn’t go as planned). A big part of this nightlife scene is strictly dedicated to the outfit you choose to wear while strutting down Welch Avenue. This crucial fit includes what college campuses have come to know as the “perfect going out top” –  aka an itty bitty piece of fabric suitable for an ideal weekend bender. To more accurately construct the visual, picture a neon pink triangle of fabric, add 25 different strings to the back of it, and maybe some padding in the front if you’re lucky: boom, the “perfect” top (if you can even call it that). Now, if you read that and thought “Holy cow, she just described my whole closet,” I want you to pay close attention to this next part. Even though this skimpy, my-mom-would-be-disappointed-in-me tank top looks cute on the online model, shouldn’t we be more concerned about the great potential for a nip slip? And regardless of unintentionally freeing the nip, that totally “chic and iconic” tank will be incredibly restrictive once you’re trying to bust a move on the dance floor. Personally, I’ve found that a comfy graphic tee not only makes for worry-free dancing, but could be a conversation starter if a nearby cutie is interested in the band on your shirt. So please, for the sake of not wanting to look like a carbon copy of every other girl at AJs, let’s opt for style and comfort, normalize not wearing alcohol as a coat, and ditch the idea that baring it all is the only way to have a good time on a friday night.
