Well, the time has come. Hot Pink Nation is officially no more. The evidence was clear. All week, we've not seen a hint of hot pink (save for an ombre training leo) from the ladies at Team USA. On Ashton Locklear's Snapchat, the ladies of Team USA were looking lovely in blue podium training leos, complete with tons and tons of sparkles.

Back when she was on the competition floor as a gymnast, Kim Zmeskal was coached by legendary gymnastics coaches, Bela and Marta Karolyi, whom you might know as the national team coordinator for the women's team at USA Gymnastics.

Dear USA Gymnasts, Please, for the love of all that is good and right with the world, please STOP wearing the ugliest hot pink leos in the history of ugly. Seriously, neon went out with the '80's, which was long before most of you were ever born or were even a twinkle in your parent's eyes. Please stop, if not in the name of saving my eyes from being blinded by that horrid concoction, stop in the name of FASHION!
