As the heat index rises, our desire to wear clothing wanes. If we can somehow survive on tiny sundresses for the entire summer, wouldn’t life be perfect? With those skimpy dresses though, we end up revealing the fact that our skin hasn’t seen the sun since you drank too many margaritas last Labor Day weekend .
