I’ll tell you what – we’ve all been there, standing in front of our closets thinking, “If only I could add a dash of va-va-voom to this outfit!” I mean, something sassy so you can turn heads left, right, and center and maybe break some hearts, too. Right?
Well, good news – your fashion prayers have been answered. Whether you’re aiming for that subtle allure or aiming to drop jaws (safely, of course!), I’ve got the insider tips that’ll help you do just that.
Of course, keeping in mind that there’s a very subtle line between dressing sexy and dressing vulgar and we are just not vibing with the latter part! 😉
But first things first, Start from within yourself!
Okay, let’s get real for a sec. Being sexy isn’t about flaunting your undies or squeezing into flashy outfits for the office. True sexiness starts from feeling it deep down, you know?
So listen up, gorgeous!
I want you to own your sexy. Be bold, be comfy in your own skin. Tap into that fierce attitude just for you. Channel your inner goddess for that sexy aura. Once you embrace your imperfections and own your sexy vibes, that confidence shines through. And trust me, sweetie, that’s pure catnip for the guys 😉
Now, onto the nitty gritty – How to dress sexy
1. Start with slinky lingeries.
Lingeries have this innate ability to ignite your hidden spark instantly!
Put on your favorite lingerie, and you will notice that immediate boost in your mood. Choose the colors, fabrics and sizes carefully, and you are one step close to your goal of looking enticingly beautiful.
Experiment with those laces and silks. Lingeries, when chosen rightly, can not only make you confident and powerful from inside but will also be the base coat to your jaw-dropping ensemble.
2. Red and black to the win!
If you are ever in doubt about how to dress sexy, then go for bold colors like black and red. It’s seductive, it’s bold, and boy, does it make a statement! Whether it’s that little black dress or a daring red skirt, the moment you put on black or red attire, you yourself will start feeling sexy from within.
These colors give a boost to your confidence. Also, they grab the attention of the beholders in no time.
3. Flaunt your toned legs.
Got legs for days? Show ’em off! A cheeky high slit or tailored shorts can do wonders. It’s all about flaunting your assets and feeling fabulous.
Invest in good quality, well-fitted leggings, pants, jeans, trousers, joggers etc. Don’t forget to add a few skirts and shorts to your collection as well. Pay attention to the length of the lowers. Match them up with the right kind of footwear.
Also, I would recommend you do at least 60 squats every day to tone up your thighs, hips and legs. You will be amazed to see the difference in just 2 months 🔥
4. Reveal your wild side with animal prints.
There’s something extremely wild and uncanny about these super hot animal prints. We have not yet gotten over the leopard print outfit adorned by one and only Kim Kardashian.
Basically, animal prints add to that primal, feminine charm. They bring out the wilderness within. A leopard print skirt or a snake-patterned top can turn heads and make hearts race. It’s daring, it’s playful, and oh so mesmerizing. Sometimes, just adding an animal print scarf to your outfit can raise the temperature.
5. Pick a dress with front zip.
Ahhhh! This one is my personal favorite!
Talk about convenience and suggestion! A dress with a front zip offers you the freedom to decide just how much you want to reveal. Zip it up or down, based on the vibe of the night. It’s cheeky and definitely a conversation starter.
6. Entice with lacy details.
Lace is the epitome of sexy elegance. Those lacy details not only add a soft, feminine touch but also leave just enough to the imagination. When in doubt, put on a well-fitted lacy top or dress to flaunt your sexy body.
Whether it’s a top with lacy sleeves or a dress adorned with lace, it’s sure to etch you in their memories.
Okay try this – if you want your date night not to end, put on your favorite lacy lingerie as well as a white, black or red lacy dress, and you will experience the magic for yourself 😉
7. Put on curve-hugging outfits.
Nothing says “Hello, world!” quite like an outfit that flirts with every contour of your body. Whether it’s that killer pair of jeans or the bodycon dress that hugs you just right, it’s time to celebrate those curves! Also, remember, it’s not about the size; it’s how you wear it.
In case you are hesitant to flaunt a curve-hugging attire because of that tummy bulge in dresses, worry not. You can always grab a body shaper to hide those unwanted flab and love handles to create an illusion of a toned, shapely body.
8. Peekaboo with those sheer outfits.
Play a little game of now you see me, now you don’t with some sheer magic. It’s the perfect mix of mystery and allure, allowing you to show off while still keeping it classy.
Plus, if you’re a lil uncomfortable with plunging necklines and backless dresses, then sheer outfits are an easy yes to dressing sexy. They look classy and elegant, instead of making you look vulgar and cheap.
Pair it with your favorite bralette or cami – it’s like being a part of a stylish secret society.
9. Put on that shirt dress with (quite a few!) buttons open
Who knew buttoning down could be this fun? Grab that shirt dress and leave a few (or more!) buttons undone. It’s effortlessly chic, surprisingly sexy, and oh-so-comfortable.
Pair it with some statement boots or sneakers, and you’re ready to conquer the world – or at least your local coffee shop. Just make sure you are aware of the fine line between elegance and cheap fashion.
P.S. To heat things up in the bedroom, you can simply steal your partner’s shirt and do that little shimmy dance.
10. Pay attention to the fitting of your outfits.
It’s all about the fit! Clothes that fit just right have the power to transform your whole vibe. It’s not too tight, not too loose – it’s the Goldilocks zone of sexy. And when you find that perfect fit, it feels like the outfit was made just for you. Could there be anything sexier?
While some outfits look good when they are tight, others look cool when you wear them a bit loose.
For instance, oversized hoodies add that uber-cool vibe and make you look sexy in a “street-style” kind of way. On the other hand, you will look alluring and hot in a body-hugging, short dress. So, cracking the right fit for the right occasion is the key to looking sexy.
11. Keep it simple!
Sometimes, less really is more. A simple, sleek look has a charm that cannot be underestimated. It’s like saying, “I woke up like this” and actually meaning it.
Pair your basics in a way that leaves a little to the imagination, and watch the world fall at your feet. Like a white bodysuit with straight-leg jeans or a shirt dress.
Also, in an outfit, try not to go overboard with sexy details. You don’t need a plunging neckline, a backless design, and an extremely short hemline all in one outfit. It’ll just make you look desperate and under-confident.
12. Invest in basics like mini skirts, leather jackets, denim shorts and tank tops.
There are certain clothes you can never go wrong with. A sleek mini skirt or those killer denim shorts paired with a tank top can scream “effortlessly hot”! And a leather jacket? Bam! Instant attitude.
Having these basics in your closet will keep you sorted. I would suggest you invest in branded and high-quality garments when it comes to these basics. You can easily create your own capsule wardrobe and come up with attires that add to your charm and sensuality.
13. Choose quality over quantity while shopping.
I know how big of a shopaholic you are! In fact, we girls love to shop till we drop. But here’s the catch – to look classy, sassy and sexy, you need to focus on the items while shopping.
You cannot simply go crazy over a season-end sale. Rather, you must shop with a full-fledged strategy in mind.
Suppose you already have a few pairs of denim shorts in your closet. Now while shopping, you must consider buying a few tops that will go with those shorts, such as a white tank top, a baby pink button-down, a casual black shirt and a grey shrug. Now you have multiple pairs of sexy outfits ready!
Also, avoid thrift shopping and go for high-quality attires when it comes to dressing sexy.
14. Flaunt your cleavage subtly.
Don’t be afraid to flaunt what you have got to the world! If you are endowed with a heavy bust, leverage it, girl! Just be confident and feel comfortable. Side boob outfits and plunging necklines are perfect for flaunting your cleavage subtly.
However, do not indulge in too much skin show, as that can simply ruin your entire appearance and may even look inappropriate.
15. Play with a strapless neckline.
Want to play it bold? Try a bodycon with a strapless neckline. These strapless dresses are a great way to flaunt your shoulder and collarbones. Strapless dresses are perfect for girls’ night outs, dinner dates and parties.
