Shop Under $30: Sheer Lingerie

Wednesday, August 4th, 2010

Sexy lingerie! Don’t be shy ladies, this season’s trend is all about baring it all…or not really. Being sexy and pulling off these items doesn’t take an exhibitionist. It’s all about tiny details; a lacy bustier slightly peeking through a button up, a pretty bra-let underneath a slouchy tank. Balance is key here because you don’t want to end up looking trashy or unkempt. Here are some great options I found on beso.com:

A pretty lace bralette in lavender pastel from Ann Taylor, $28.00, to pair with a sheer button up top for a demure, sophisticated sort of sexy.

A sheer tank shows off the perfect amount of skin as well as a little bit of your cute lingerie underneath. This one from LnA, $20.70, has a cute front pocket detail and scoop back. Leave the rest up to the imagination!

Don’t worry if your bra straps are showing. In fact, show them off with this cute American Eagle ruffled bralette, $14.95. You could even pair this with a tube top to add some polka dot ruffled goodness to your bare shoulders.

Lastly, another great option with some extra coverage is this lace under cami bralette from Arden B., $18.00. It’s got a built in bra underneath, with lace overlay, so you get some added support but that sexy lace peep through that you want.

How to Wear: Petal Pink

Wednesday, July 7th, 2010

I’m generally not a pink or pastel kind of gal. Usually, I flock to bold colors, but this season I am really drawn to petal pink! Just yesterday, I found some really great pieces at Ann Taylor Loft. I paired a petal pink top with a black animal print skirt and it looks fantastic. I also bought a super cute petal pink silk dress with black piping at the neck. For shoes, I’m going with a pair of tall wedges.

If you want to pair the pink with a color besides black, try gray, navy or olive. I would however, stay away from a double dose of pink.

Here are my fab outfits. What do you think?
