In The Know: Fun Fashion Facts



For today's Daily Dose of In The Know, we have some fun fashion facts for you.

-Men were the first to wear jewelry as a status symbol and as good luck amulets to aid them in battle. (Kind of like rappers now. Minus the battle part...)



-About 75% of American brides receive a diamond engagement ring. (Although, most not the size of a dinner plate like Kim Kardashian's.)



-And last but not least, "The "thong" was supposedly invented after the New York Mayor LaGuardia became enraged that the city's nude dancers were exposing too much flesh. The thong was developed to keep the New York City dancers covered enough to placate the mayor. (So what about the male thong...?)
