Lost me at “wife beater”. What a trashy way to refer to tank tops.
Anonymous
Agreed. Those words should never be used outside of discussing the serious subject that domestic abuse is.
Jessica
I was thinking the same. Super tacky.
Debbie Isbell
Seriously guys …. you have never heard of them called wife beaters????
Natalie
They've clearly heard the term, but are objecting to its flippant use as a descriptor. 'Wife beater' should not be a casual term for a piece of clothing.
Alia
This is a cute page.. but am I the only one who thinks it looks like a mix of 1970's and 1990's 'boho' ? 🙂
