I hope you've been blessed with beautiful swarthy skin - some of us are unfortunately genetically doomed to a life of white skin and sunburn!
Although I don't think anyone should be condemned for that - they really can't help it - should they have to cover their white freckly legs?
Other than their lack of "style", what other indications were there that the people you obsererved were Irish?I was sitting on a bench at a local shopping centre waiting for someone this morning and it really struck me how Irish people just don't 'do' Summer style. ...

Had they :
If their lack of seasonally appropriate sartorial elegance offends your highly developed fashion sensibilities, you could always move away.
- passports on display?
- tri-colours stapled to their foreheads?
- intense conversations "as Gaeilge" on the go?
Its not about fashion, believe me. I honestly don't think showing off half your bare This post will be deleted if not edited to remove bad language in the Supermarket is a great look.
To be honest, I think some clothes such as micro shorts can only really be worn by models, Californian beach babes and the like. The average Irish woman flip flopping around Tesco at 4 oc in the afternoon, well sorry girls I just don't think we quite cut it.
I am sure the Irish women in Tescos that you disapproved of had not expected to have some fashion guru lying in wait.
The idea that larger women have to cover up in hot weather is ridiculous because of their size, just mind your own business and look elsewhere.
So if only models/ beach babes are the ones to wear these items then Penneys/Dunnes/Tesco/No Name etc may stop selling them.
Same here. It bothers me a lot to see kids out in the sun with no suncream on, getting burnt, or little babies being pushed along in buggies with no shade of any description over them. In fairness, I dont think the bad dressing is confined to the Irish. You will see the same in many countries.It doesn't offend me it doesn't bother me but it does give me a laugh! The only thing that does bother me is kids walking around burnt to bits and not a hat or sunblock in sight! I shall continue to laugh at the men in socks and sandals this week and the women big and small with their bits hanging out cos at least I know summer in Ireland is here!

In the supermarket earlier I saw a woman wearing a pair of trousers and her knickers were showing over the top, those high cut ones so she actually had a gap between the bottom of her knickers and the top of her trousers. It wouldn't have looked so bad if she had been 20 years younger.
Worst fashion crime in my eye though is skimpy tops and non matching bras so you see all the back and straps of the bra, which is usually not even the same colour as the top.
As in... A kind of a brassy/trashy 'I don't care/ early Madonna/charity shop' look?
