What to Wear to Roll Out Redux Tuesday
Categories: Nightlife
 |
Hot Pants: The shorter the better. It's all about moving fast out there on the rink, pants are going to slow you down, but no skirts please, that just screams a Paris Hilton getting out of the car related nightmare. Be sure to choose wisely when shopping for hot pants, nobody wants to walk around with the dreaded camel toe. (ie:avoid these) Bonus points if high-waisted and made from some sort of metallic looking fabric.
Colorful Tights: Worried about butt cheeks hanging out? Layer with some colorful tights to avoid that fashion faux pas. If feeling bold, try a tie-dye print or something glittery to grab the attention of that cute boy you've been eyeing for the couples skate.
Tube Tops: Tube tops scream roller disco, making them the ideal companion for a pair of hot pants. However, the only downside is you'll have to go braless, so think about wearing a metallic bikini top underneath. Also, don't be scared to go all out with a sequin tube top, this is probably the only time to get away with it.
The Romper: A personal favorite of mine, its the kill two birds with one stone approach to fashion. No need to worry about finding a top or a bottom, it's all in one. Finding an acid wash romper is a dream come true and perfect for a night of skating.
Accessories are key to bringing any outfit together, and in this case, less is not more. Don't be shy to pack on the neon bangle bracelets, heart shaped sunglasses, and finish off with pair of knee high socks.
If you're still stumped for style ideas, think about channeling Iris (Taxi Driver), Kira (Xanadu), or (the most obvious choice of all) Roller Girl (Boogie Nights) for some more inspiration.
