Day 40: Fashion Faux Pas Health Hazards

What does a cinched waist belt, wedge sandals and a pair of metal aviator sunglasses have in common? 

On the Dr. Oz show yesterday, Dr. Oz and a fashion expert talked about the health hazards of some of the latest looks and what options you could do for a healthy fashion alternative.

Metal aviator sunglasses can cause rashes over time.  Substitute a pair of oversized plastic sunglasses for the same look.

Tight cinched belts can cause indigestion and restrict the abdominal muscles.  Skinny belts are the healthier and more comfortable option. 

Ankle wedge sandals can cause ankle damage and increase potential risk of injury when wearing them.  Instead substitute wedge sandals with a pair that have a supportive ankle strap or pick gladiator sandals.

 Be a smiling fashionista. Not a suffering fashionista.  Sacrificing comfort for fashion winds up giving you health consequences down the road.  Walk the runway pain free by choosing the better accessory.
