These days, the dangers of sun exposure are greatly emphasized by the media. You have probably heard it all, from skin cancer to premature wrinkles. Unfortunately, for many of us (including myself), being tanner leads to feeling prettier. This is starting to sound like a dilemma.

Don't fret. Even if you're paranoid like me, and refuse to use anything but SPF 75 sunscreen, all hope is not lost when it comes to salvaging the palest of tans (oxymoron?). Consider the following tips:

1. Wear lightly colored clothing. White works best, in my opinion.

2. Use neon, white, or pastel yellow nail polish

3.  Dust a bit of bronzer onto your face and neck

4. Use a self-tanner

5. Show off your tan lines (ex: bikini/flip flop lines)

P.S. For those who haven't seen Taylor Swift's new 'Sparks Fly' music video, you can find it here. Her concert is just less than a month away. I AM SO EXCITED!!!!1
