WHEN the mercury rises all us Brits want to do is strip off.
Aside from wanting to get a good tan, ditching clothes feels like the best option when it's hot.
The saying goes “Suns out, buns out” and as a nation we love nothing more than basking in the glorious sunshine whenever we get the chance.
And getting our kit off at the same time.
While it may seem like the only way to keep cool and survive the sweltering heat, it's actually not.
Covering up when the sun is beating down on you will actually keep you cooler.

Plus, if you’re planning on basking in the sun all day you know the tan lines the next day will be awful.
HOT PANTS
You may buy them thinking they’re not hot pants, but they are.
Even if you are lucky enough to have the body of a supermodel they still reveal that little bit too much.
Fashion's finest celebrities such as Hailey Bieber have even put their skimpy denims away in favour of more laid-back and stylish longer styles.
BOOB TUBES
Boob tubes are back, thanks to A-listers like Kendall Jenner and Barbie’s Margot Robbie wearing dresses and tops in the strapless style.

For those of you that aren't familiar with the 'sausage boob' its the shape of your bust that is created by boob tubes or bandeaux bikinis.
PEEK-A-BOO PANTS
The whale tail or exposed thong trend crept back into the fashion fold last year, following a Y2K resurgence.
