With Valentine’s Day just under a month away, we think it’s high time you thought about your outfit for the big day. Whatever your shape or size, you can always make the most of what you have.
Firstly, great masterpieces are built on great foundations. Choosing the correct underwear is crucial to your look. Ever seen a woman in a beautiful dress, but with a horrible, grey saggy bra underneath? It’s doubtful and there’s a reason for that. The wrong type of undies can ruin an entire outfit. Just a mere peek of a bra strap can destroy your look. Similarly, a visible panty line (VPL) is also a fashion catastrophe.
Instead, make sure you choose a supportive, uplifting bra with straps that are kept under wraps. It will also ensure that you stay that way, all night long.
With so many options available there’s really no excuse for having your straps on show! Go for a strapless bra or a strapless halter neck bra if you really can’t do without the support.
Or, if your dress has a plunging back try the adhesive stick on bra. Next, choose some (seamless) sexy knickers. Alternatively, if you feel the need, you can slip on a pair of secret slimming knickers, Bridget Jones style. Just stash a saucy pair in your handbag for later.
Why not try some sheer tights, or perhaps a pair of patterned fishnets to glam up your look. They’ll give you that super sophisticated feel.
Always remember to keep the rest of your outfit simple. Valentine’s Day is not about fashion overkill. Step into a pair of killer heels,which will give you a cute wiggle as you walk. The little black dress is a perfect choice, especially if your man is planning a romantic surprise. The LBD works for almost any occasion and can be taken just about everywhere. You could work some 40’s Audrey Hepburn magic into your outfit by slipping on some elbow length gloves and accessorising with classic pearl jewellery. An elegant black clutch bag is the finishing touch to your valentines outfit.
