Is tan really necessary?

The spring is all around and I came to think over the tan issue - I'll have to stay at the city for the whole summer - so no sea or sunbathing))
Looking for an artificial tan - cream or lotion I found so many different opinions that I'm in 2 minds now - whether to buy one from Dove or L'Oreal or it's better to stay pale as I am... Plus, I'm afraid to become orange or some other ugly color.
But the thought of becoming bronzy and cool just urges me to go and buy a lotion, maybe just to try.
It's so strange - some decades ago tanned people were considered to be of lower class, only outdoor workers were tanned and opposed to the aristocracy - absolutely white. Today we want to be tanned, sunkissed, glowing - whatever - to create an image of a "lazy sunbather" who spares her time on hte beach, on the yacht - lounging and caring about nothing...
Stranage, foolish - but I want to be tanned, at least artificially))
