These Awful Tan Lines Will Have You Running for Shade
Ah, summer. A time to catch some rays and show off your color. But, oh, can it go wrong.
Yeah, we're talking about the infamous tan line -- or farmer's tan, if you prefer. You know what we mean -- that section of your body that remains covered while the rest of you absorbs the sun in all its UV glory. It can happen anywhere, be it the straps of your bathing suit, your watch or your socks. No part of you is immune and it can make for a very funny photo op.
Take a look at some interesting tan lines gone wrong and remember to lather up the SPF 1000 to keep yourself monochromatic. If you're gonna feel the burn, make sure it only happens at the gym.
