i l ove halter tops, i think they are cute, unfortunetly where i live the weather is always about subzero so never get to wear them :(

There's been some great advice about remembering your own body type when deciding how small the clothing can be, and what to wear it with so you don't look trashy. I just remember that those girls (like the one girl at the bar wearing a skimpy little halter, tight tight booty shorts, and flip flops) attract loser, trashy guys that I want nothing to do with. They may get more attention, but it is definitely not the kind of attention I want. I'd rather look classy and not be bothered by that kind of guy. I prefer a classier guy.

Maybe we should have a sequal to the "What do you look like?" thread. "What do you look like in a halter top?"

[B]On the right person, halter tops are adorable. However, they are similar to stretch pants in that they are a privilege, not a right! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif[QUOTE]

Amen, Killarney Rose!!! I love halter tops, but their are some ladies who might want to rethink their wardrobe choices!

But, if you are a bigger chested girl (like me) Gap makes a wonderful halter top with a shelf bra, and straps thick enough to hide either a strapless bra, or a convertible halter style bra underneath.

one more thing - please dont wear a halter top and have big bra straps hanging out - ugh!!!

I have several commetns on halter tops--

1. They look better on younger girls, i.e., high school and first two years of college, and less so as you get older. A woman in her upper 20s in a tight-halter looks like she wishes she were somewhere on spring break.

2. I think the syle is passe'

3. My main complaint now is that they purposefully cut the tops so short, that its difficult to find something you don't have to keep tugging down. I don't mind a halter if that what I want, but everything seems "halterish".
