The salsa club fashion police

Salsa dancing is an expression. It can be feisty, smooth and sensual. The same can be said of the way you dress. The way you dress yourself says a lot about personality.

Unless a salsa club has a strict dress code, you can dress casual or more formal. But here a few forms of self expression that have gone wrong.

1. Showing too much

Latin dance is not for prudes, but if you going to be touching someone AND be practically naked, you might as well get your own room. In general, my advice is when you go out, choose one part of your body that you want to show off whether its your boobs or your legs. But not both.

2. Too much on

When dressing for the salsa club its always important to keep your partner in mind. If you are wearing something complicated, you can get tangled. Or if you decide to tie a sweatshirt around your waist, it can hit him when he is turning you. From my experience, it's safe to put your sweatshirt down, no one is going to steal it. 


3. A little too dangerous

 When you're in the club be aware that you are moving around so wearing a dangerous top such as this can lead to a wardrobe malfunction. 

4. Overdone

Men always have it easier than women when it comes to fashion. There are just less options for them. But I am tired of seeing the fedora hat. You and everybody's brother has one, don't bring it to the club. 

5. Scarfs

Scarfs are actually pretty common in the salsa scene and I'm not really sure why. Unless you are David Nieto, who actually makes a disclaimer about his scarf, you can't pull it off.
