Oops! Why do I keep having wardrobe malfunctions?

Maybe it's the type of clothes you keep wearing out to dance in. Have you ever went out dancing and in the middle of a good dance, something comes untied, undone, falls out, or slips off? Ladies, I know you know what I'm talking about. This has happened to me many times before. Then I tell myself, "I'm never going to wear this again! What was I thinking?" So, lets talk about what we can wear out dancing and what we should be cautious of.

I know that we want to look our sexiest out there on the dance floor and that new dress or top that you just bought shows a lot of skin, but be cautious. Of course, you can wear whatever you want out in the club. This blog is just to help you be aware of certain garments that might cause a few problems on the dance floor.

Tube tops*** Man! Those things are annoying. I know the guys like them, but you will most likely be adjusting it all night long. Your top will be more of a hassle and might possibly ruin your night and after your first dance, you'll be hoping that nothing will fall out.

Spaghetti straps*** If these are not tight on your shoulders, then they can keep falling and you will be in the routine of constantly putting them back up on your shoulders all night.

Corsets*** Corsets are hot! But they can cut off your blood circulation and make it uncomfortable to dance or do certain styling. Again, you might be hoping that nothing will fall out during the night.

Strings*** Anything that ties up is taking a chance. Strings like to untie themselves or somehow you or the person that you are dancing with might accidentally undo the string. If you wear halter tops that tie up or an outfit that has strings in it, make sure to double knot for security.

Dresses*** Dresses are very sexy, but most dresses will have one of the above. Be cautious. Also, the dresses that flare up look very nice when you turn, but realize that you might end up showing your "goodies" to everyone in the club. If you're bold, then this won't bother you. If you really want to wear that sexy flare dress, then I would suggest some boy shorts or dance panties.

Mini skirts*** More than likely your goodies will be flashed most of the night. Hope you have some descent underwear on! Most likely you will be trying to pull down your skirt for the entire night.

Long Skirts*** Warning! Trip hazard! Long skirts can get stepped on and you might wind up on the floor or worse, your skirt might be pulled down.

Jewelry*** I personally stopped wearing jewelry. My cute earrings that I just spent $10 on always keep flying off and ending up across the room. I have so many unmatched earrings now. Just try to make sure that your earrings are secure. Every once in a while, I will wear studs in my ears. Dangling earrings are a no for me. Rings were also another problem. Men would complain how my rings were scratching them and making them bleed. I never wear bracelets, so I don't know what to say about them. I know that my hair has gotten tangling up in men's bracelets a few times in the past. So men, you might want to think about that. Hair accessories come out a lot too. Try to make sure that those are secure as well.

Ultimately, it is up to you what you want to wear. Try to wear something comfortable and sexy if you can. Jeans are always a great choice. Shorts, skorts, skirts, tanks, dress blouses/tops are good as well. I know that wardrobe malfunctions messed up some of my salsa nights by making me insecure about moving freely or have stopped me on the dance floor so that I could tie something back up. I try to look sexy every time that I go out and like to wear things that compliment my body. But, as I have found out, not all sexy outfits are made to salsa dance in.

If you know of any type of garment that I left out, please share or just share an experience. If you have any questions, please ask.

Keep it sexy on the dance floor!!!!
