I'm talking the see-through-in-the-sunshine kind. On my morning walk to class at CofC it's not uncommon to see more than five offenses of this fashion faux-pas.

Ready to sound off on your loves and loathes for Grit's 12 Days? Let's do it.

Here's how to submit:

1. Send an email to Grit editor Ellen McGauley at emcgauley@charlestonmag.com. Put 12 Days in the subject line.

2. List one look you love and one you hate. Each should be accompanied by a) a quote about why b) a picture or two illustrating the look.

3. List the online source of any images submitted. We need to credit them correctly.

4. Include first name, general occupation, age, and the part of town in which you live. These will be listed with each submission used.

5. Do it before March 15!

We'll run as many as we can! The more colorful the commentary, the better. So go ahead, give us your Fashion Grit.
