We all want to be attractive wherever we’re going but the last people we want to attract are snatchers and pickpockets. Here’s a guide on outfits that will catch their eyes.
8. Designer clothesObviously, snatchers and pickpockets know designer brands only because they have to know if their target has money. You can be presentable without flaunting your designer clothes.
I can advise you that one of the best ways to get mugged in Philippines is to give criminals the idea that you are rich by flaunting your wealth through what you wear.
7. Party outfitI’m sure if you’re really going to a party, you will not risk commuting because you don’t want to look sweaty and haggard once you arrive to the venue. Sure, bodycon dresses will be great for commuting, not only will you attract pickpockets but also perverts.
6. High end bags, shoes and accessoriesYes, it would look very pleasing especially in the eyes of the snatchers or pickpockets. Once they see you wearing high-end accessories, they will rejoice like a kid who is about to enter Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory for the first time. Basically, you’ll be the factory and the snatchers will be your guests.
5. Formal outfit with matching diamonds and gold accessoriesNow why in the world would you wear a formal outfit with matching diamond accessories while commuting in a third world country? Unless your diamonds are not real or you’re a lunatic who wants to show off, then go right ahead.
4. Easy access clothes and bagsEasy access clothes are clothes that can easily be worn, like loose dresses, or clothes with big open pockets or pockets without zippers, while easy access bags are bags without zippers or any closing.
If you can access your stuff easily, then it only means it gets easier for the pickpockets.
3. Full on make upLook pretty. If you look like you can buy a lot of products for your face, then you also look like you probably won’t leave your house without a lot of money in your pockets. Another reason why snatchers should steal your bag.
2. GadgetsI get it, you are very techie but can you at least wait until you get home before turning your gadgets on? On the other hand, since you want to flaunt your gadgets, why not get a string, tie your gadgets and just hang them outside your bag, that way it’s easier for pickpockets to grab what you have.
1. Daring clothes or skimpy clothesYou are commuting, honey! Skimpy clothes equals attraction. People will be looking at you and would probably want a piece of you or probably whatever you have with you.
