A good tried and true rule for sexy sartorialism is to only highlight one body part: i.e. the legs with a more conservative top, or a low blouse with a slim pant. However, fashion isn’t always as cut and dry as the rules make it out to be and sometimes sex appeal can afford a little more skin. But that doesn’t mean letting it all hang out, so to speak. See the above example; the reason this works is that the dress is not remotely body conscious. It has a low neckline and is a short dress, but has tons of fabric and a long sleeve to give it some restraint. I’ve also forgone a strappy sandal in favour of a more casual and less sexy bootie.

    Gorgeous! Love that you often choose loose fitting clothing and turn it into something sexy! Loving the layered necklace as well!

      Thanks Rebecca! Totally, it’s much sexier leaving something to the imagination.

      Unfortunately it’s from Europe and it’s my sisters… but let me know if you find something similar!
