Get waxed
Get waxed Short skirts and mini dresses call for smooth gams, so remember: Shave your legs front and back and pay special attention to those thighs, warns beauty expert Erika Katz. If you have long or dark hair on your arms, consider getting them waxed or shave them yourself. "Nothing looks worse than a gorgeous dress with hairy arms." Eek! We'd have to agree on that one.
