I believe someone mentioned it earlier, but what's with the tank tops popping up in so many pictures? Is that a trend now?

Yes, tank tops are trending. I was tailgating a few weeks ago and the college girls were wearing the tank tops and leggings. I was afraid leggings would catch on again....sigh.

Some chapters forbid you from wearing leggings-as-pants with your letters
I think tank tops are wonderful, depending on where your school is. I would be getting a lot more wear out of a tank top than our dark-colored bid day shirts right now, that's for sure.

All those tank tops remind me of the old school "Frankie Says Relax" shirts of the 80s!

Leggings became popular again before these tank tops, at least from what I've observed. I've heard them called "lifeguard tanks" and "crop tops" (even though they're not cropped  ). Even if you have a nicely toned body, they are cut to enhance mens' shoulder and chest muscles, which makes you look manly. They are too low cut in front and on the sides for women, which is why they're [hopefully] always worn with something underneath, but I frequently see bra straps hanging out.

We call them "bro tanks" in part for that reason.

I think the tanks are cute, and they make sense in places like Pullman, WA - where WSU is - where it is usually 100+ degrees on bid day.

The girls at the campus where I advise call them "frat tanks." I think they're awesome.
