Summer brides --

Are you starting to pay attention to where you are tanning? Even though I put on some pretty heavy sunscreen, I still tan along my running bra lines or whatever shirt I'm wearing. Obviously, none of these have the same lines as my wedding dress. Is this something you remotely give a crap about?

    Yes I've been concerned about this! I still have 3.5 mths but my tan lines stay forever. And my dress is strapless! You aren't alone!

    I mean, if the worst thing someone says about me is that I'm training hard enough that they see my running bra tan lines when I'm wearing my wedding dress, I guess it doesn't matter that much.

    My wedding isn't until October but I'll still have some of my summer tan. My dress is long sleeve and has a high neckline, but it's an open back, so I'm trying to avoid back tan lines! I lay out in the sun at home, and when I lay on my stomach I unhook my top to prevent tan lines, lol. This has also been a huge concern of mine.

    I did. I was in Florida in April hell bent on getting tan for the wedding. I was undoing straps ans ties to avoid lines as my dress was backless. I run too and tan very easily, fortunately we didn't have any races planned before the wedding because that tan line would have been awful.

    I wear long sleeves at all times. No ifs, ands, or buts.

    @ALC - if it's just counting steps jawbone has a little counter that will attach to your pants (I know though a lot of them are more complicated though. I've missed the heart rate function on my fitbit)

    I give a big crap. I'm trying to stay out of the sun or wear bandeau bikini tops when I go to the beach. Also hoping I can spray tan the unevenness away

    Skin cancer runs in my family so I wear 100 SPF whenever I'm outside, fortunately I never have to worry about tan lines haha.
