Sexy Is As Sexy Does

It seems that there are a few recent concerns out there regarding fashion and how it may be taking a turn for the worse. From the lacy camisoles to the low-rise jeans, the look of the 2000's is growing more and more...well, sexy. Although in many instances, the word "sexy" could be replaced with "slutty" or just plain "raunchy" very easily.

I will be the first to admit that I have several lacy camisoles and I will never wear anything but low-rise jeans. (Great for elongating the torso!) I've seen many pretty girls who can pull off the above-mentioned pieces without looking like a hoochie-mama. On the contrary, I've seen many not-so-pretty girls who failed to look in the mirror before they stepped out onto the catwalk.

My point...it's not the fashion trends of today that are so provocative looking, but how you wear them that makes or breaks the deal. And I will say, there's a fine line one has to follow. Over-accessorizing, over-applying makeup, and not wearing styles that flatter your figure are just a few mistakes people can make. Just think moderation.

I found this article, and though a bit conservative, it contains helpful guidelines if you are one of those fashion skeptics out there. So, next time you hit the town, feel free to bust out the sexies if they are, indeed, flattering. But be sure not to cross that fine line. If it's not flattering, stop fooling yourself and wear something that does look good with your body type. You don't have to be baring all just to feel like a lady.
