Although I try to stay on top of the trends (even though there are so many), I catch myself slipping sometimes. I’ve just recently caught onto the trend of wearing lingerie as outerwear and I can’t believe it took me so long. I love the way it looks! It adds a hint of sexiness to your outfit, even if you’re covering it up with a coat or blazer!
If you’re thinking about wearing this trend then check out these tips before you do:
- First, understand what type of lingerie you are most comfortable in – All lingerie is not created equal. A completely see-through bodysuit is not the same as a bodysuit that provides some cover. If you’re comfortable with your body then, by all means, go all out. If you’re not, then start with something a little more modest.
- Determine what you want to style your lingerie with and how you want to style it – Distressed denim. A pleated skirt. A pair of trousers. Any of those items would look great with lingerie, but it’s up to you to figure out which item is best for you. Also, determine what type of look you’re trying to achieve. Do you want to look like Madonna? Or do you want to look like Victoria Beckham?
- Start layering – Although you don’t have to, adding a layer of clothing over lingerie adds an air of sophistication and elegance to any outfit. Try layering with a blazer or see-through top!
