Corsets, Not Just For The Bedroom!

Women want to look sexy. Elegant... and sexy. Sophisticated... and sexy. It doesn't matter what your style is, or what you are trying to convey through your clothing-- the bottom line is that you can always work a little something sexy into your look. The uniform for instant sexy would have to be corsets and bustiers. They were used in the 1800's because they gave women such a great shape. An uncomfortable one, but a great one. 1950's pin-ups are always shown in corsets, lacy satins and fishnets. They are the epitome of female sexiness. That's wonderful and all, but outside the bedroom and Halloween, where is it ever appropriate to don a skin-tight, laced-up, lacy, bosom-baring satin top? Nowhere, frankly. But now you can get the look and image of sexiness that corsets give, but still be comfortable and day appropriate. Where them under a cardigan and a great pair of jeans for a sexy and sweet weekend get-up, or under a blazer and with some great heels to add spark to the work place! School, work or meeting the boyfriend's parents, check out the slideshow for some great ideas that will leave you looking sexy but appropriate for anything that may come along in your busy day.

    Love the range of corsets, they are very pretty! However, I don't think any of them could be worn to an office workplace, even under a blazer! The bebe one, maybe. :)> Applause

    ~* yeah.... the work ones are definitely specific to individual job and workplace :) Smiling but if you do want to try that look, i would try something with a bit of a sleeve or a collared button down with emphasized princess lines! I love corsets ;) Winking
