Being sexy is as much about how you look as it is how you feel. Even if your body isn’t exactly the kind seen in Victoria’s Secret fashion shows, the right combination of clothes can make you feel sexy – and look the part to boot! Here are some of the pieces you may want to consider buying to get you started on the path to inner and outer beauty.
The LBD
A staple of the modern, fashion-conscious woman, the little black dress is an item that every girl should have, and with good reason. Whether you’re on your way out to party or on the way to a meeting, the LBD is perfect for the job. And when it comes to sheer sex appeal, the LBD is one number that’s tough to beat.
What’s not to like about little black dresses? They’re black, which has a slimming effect on any kind of body. Also, they’re typically cut close to the body, accentuating your curves. Finally, they pair well with just about any accessory from a Salvation Army purse to one-off designer shoes – good news for your wardrobe and your bank account.
If you don’t have one yet but plan to get one soon, there are a few things to keep in mind when buying your very first LBD. First, it’s a good idea to buy a quality brand, even if it’s pricey. Better quality control almost always means that the dress itself lasts longer. Second, if the dress doesn’t fit the first time, forget about it. There are others out there, and one’s bound to fit you the way it should.
One of the best things about little black dresses is that you don’t have to show a lot of skin to look and feel sexy. Even a sheath dress that displays a wee bit of leg above the knee and a hint of cleavage is enough to earn you bombshell treatment.
Cashmere Outerwear
Believe it or not, your sense of touch plays a big role in how you – and others – perceive your body. If you’re always in contact with surfaces that feel good against the skin, you’re likely to feel better about yourself in turn. Enter the wonderful world of feel-good cashmere.
It could be a little sweater to keep you warm inside the house, or a full-on luxurious coat with braiding and detailing that came straight out of Saks Fifth Avenue. Throwing a bit of cashmere into your outfit can go a long way towards making you feel better about how you look. The fabric’s smooth, comforting texture does much of that for you.
Find one that’s somewhat form-fitted – it should ideally hug you around the waist and the shoulders to show off your curves. Getting it in a length that suits the proportion of your body only enhances its flattering effect.
Killer Heels
Every girl has to have at least a pair of killer heels in her wardrobe to wear on days when you have to bring out every ounce of confidence in you. Aside from being a symbol of status, this style staple lengthens your legs and gives you more flattering proportions.
There are no hard and fast rules about what kind of heels to get. Even the height, which can vary from two and a half to four whole inches, is based largely on preference. In fact, the only qualification should be that it makes you feel good when you finally stand in front of the mirror wearing your outfit for the day. Now there’s sexy.
