Halter Tops: Love em or Hate em?
 
Hey everyone, since it's getting to be so hot outside, I'm just wondering what the general consensus is about halter tops. This question is open to guys & girls...what do you think? Are they cute or trashy? I think I'll wait & give my personal opinion until I hear what some of ya'll have to say http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

I like halter tops. I think some people shouldn't wear them. If your belly is too big- sometimes i don't wear one if my belly looks big- don't wear one. I think people should either not wear a bra with them or wear a bra that fits the style of the halter because it looks trashy when bra straps hang out.

I agree with Lana. Also, larger chested women in halter tops can be a bad thing as well. They just don't fit as well/look trashy. I think everyone needs to use their best judgement. I can'T wear them cause they make me look slutty. But some women look great in them. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!

This drives me absolutely, positively insane. Either wear a strapless or T-back or get the kind of tank that has a built-in bra. If you're wearing the spaghetti strap kind and you look really horrible without the support bra, here's a hint: you probably shouldn't be wearing the strappy top in the first place.

I have just little enough thar I can get away without a bra, but (here's another hint) I always make sure I'm covered on the bottom. Everything hanging out from both ends is ho-like.

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

Hmmm . .. how to express my appreciation . . . well, if a girl looks good in a halter top I break out in a cold sweat. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

Good general clothing rule: Show skin on top or skin on the bottom, but never at the same time.

That's a good rule to abide by. That's what I usually do (unless I am wearing a halter top and a below the knee-length skirt out to, like a party or something). It's all about leaving something to the imagination. Less IS more!

Depends on how good your less looks http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

As long as I'm all tucked in nice I don't mind them. And "Show skin on top or skin on the bottom, but never at the same time." what a fabulous rule. I've been so careful since I read this to wear pants with my tanks/halters!

I'm down in Louisiana. It gets hot here. Correction, it gets DAMN hot. So lots of people wear halter tops. However, as Tracy stated - they are a privilige, NOT a right. Some people down here feel that just because they live in the south, they need to look like Daisy Duke - WRONG. With nice khaki shorts, a cute halter looks nice. But with ass-shorts, it looks trashy.

Personally, I don't own any halter tops. I do, though, have two dresses with halter tops to them. But the dresses hit at the knee. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif I like to leave things up to the imagination

I've been looking for one for awhile that has the built-in bra, because I REALLY hate strapless bras! They always fall! I think Abercrombie made some like that at one point but I just don't know where to find them!

After all, I need one to wear with my khaki shorts and stretch pants lol.

I think Victoria's Secret has a convertible bra that can go with just about anything.

Victorias Secret and Newport both make halters with built in bras.
