So you’re enjoying a night out. Your face is beat, hair is slaying, and your outfit is giving life. You’re oozing with confidence, because you know you’re looking good. Then you feel it, and it’s spreading, or maybe it just lingers in one concentrated area. At any rate it’s unbearable, it’s annoying, but most of all IT’S HOTTER THAN HELL!!! Still trying to maintain your cuteness and composure, you sip some cold water but it ain’t helping. In your quest to find relief, you begin vigorously fanning yourself but it ain’t working. You can just feel yourself morphing into a sweat popping, make-up running, hair dripping HOT mess. Real talk, hot flashes ain’t a game and this week’s post provide recommendations on what to wear when life is interrupted by a private summer. After speaking with a plethora of women dealing with this very issue, I’ve learned a great deal about dressing in preparation for a hot flash. Stick to wearing breathable fabrics like cotton and linen. Short sleeves, sleeveless dresses, and button down shirts can be a better friend to a sweaty girl than a heap of free diamonds and always have a scarf on hand to protect your collar from runny makeup. For most women of a certain age, menopause and hot flashes are inevitable but with a little preparation you can overcome it, pull it together, and continue to make the men all pause.
