Mauiimmodesty
It is commonly assumed that the majority of us have some degree of body awareness. At least by me.
Body AWAREness would seem to imply that we are inately AWARE when we are wearing items that are way, way, wa-HAY too small, ill fitting, disturbingly distracting, or patently inappropriate for the venue.
Be it far from my expertise or even my earned ability to proclaim myself the fashion icon or guru in ANY sense of the word. After all, this is the woman who values comfort over beauty to a fault, and would joyfully wear sweatpants and Crocs to church if it wasn't so obviously disresepectful to God.
So far on this vacation, the pristine beaches of Maui beaches have evidenced rather eye-opening, full-color proof that my belief in the concept of our universal body awareness is vastly flawed.
The new equation seems to be best summed up in five words: speedo+thong+chili fries+alcohol-modesty = NOT PRETTY.

Lachen, one of my students is from Brazil. You should hear her tell of the costuming along the beaches there.
