You either love it or hate it, but it's back again:
That wild, wet Thailand holiday known as Songkran.

Kids: Good targets. Small but slow-moving |
What started as a gentle bathing of elders' hands has turned into an all-out, country-consuming, three-day water fight.

That's what we're planning to do tomorrow night, when we head over to the infamous Silom Road, which has been closed down so people can get crazy with their squirt guns.
But everywhere I go, I see people wearing their floral-print shirts the exact same way.
- Buttoned!
- Boring!
- Same same!
So here's a few ways you can wear your Songkran uniform for the holiday. We're keeping in mind that it will be blazingly hot and incredibly humid, so we're not looking for lots of layers or accessories. We're keeping things cool and light.
And if you haven't already gotten your 100-baht shirt, don't worry. They're still selling them all over Bangkok.
Rip It Good
It's so damn hot here that it only makes sense to rip the sleeves off your cheap shirt. I mean, COME ON, it only cost 100 baht.I love this cool number from the social media flea market app Depop. Seller Phoebe Cuff says the sleeves have slight fraying, which just adds to the tough-girl, ready-to-party vibe. Would also be cute over a cami.
Here, rolled sleeves maintain the laid-back attitude, along with a drapey tuck into a pair of denim cutoffs.
And a peek of a red bikini top? Adorable.
Creative buttoning over a solid top in a coordinating color makes this flirty but sophisticated.
Punk Songkran: Black beanie, cropped leather jacket, laddered tights and black creepers. Hot in more ways than one.

Because it's Songkran.
