From a post over in twox:

It’s overalls! And not just any overalls, the overly cutesy ones that a 6 year old would be jealous of.

I like being cool in the summer. I like wearing shorts + tank tops or crop tops. Or dresses. But every year it’s like the crazies emerge and I’m constantly being followed, harassed, yelled at, or having weirdos come up to me.

The final straw for me was two years ago, I was shopping with my four year old. I was wearing shorts and a tank top. I had no makeup on. We were out in the parking lot garden center, and this man drove up with his door within inches of me and my child. He wanted my “autograph” and my number and got shitty when I said no.

I felt uncomfortable so we went inside. Where not ten minutes later, a guy old enough to be my father walked up to us and graphically described what he wanted to do to my body in front of my kid. I decided I was going to try to make sure my husband was with me when I went out.

Last year my husband told me he loved overalls on me. I’m not gonna lie; I don’t prefer them. But I love him so I bought a pair of pink overalls with strawberries on them. They’re actually really comfy, so this year I decided to wear them more.

I wore them to the store alone. And I did keep getting approached, but always by women! They’d tell me how cute they were! So I decided to try something new. I bought 3 more pairs of pink overalls with patterns. I wear them every time I go out.

Men have stopped cat calling me. Women continue to be nice. I think overalls have saved my sanity and my freedom. My daughter continues to be jealous of my cool overalls, but she doesn’t know that I bought her several pairs for her birthday.

EDIT: Here is a link to one of the pairs! They’re at Hot Topic. They’re made of a stretchy, thick fabric.
