Hello girls, how’s the sun? High, right? Well, in the midst of this heat wave, all you can bring yourself to wear in the comfort of your home is a pair of underwear! Of course, you can’t walk out in public wearing just a thong, but you can obviously go out in public wearing a slip as a dress and a bra as a top. All thanks to the Hadids, Kardashians and every other supermodels who have made this a sartorial norm. This makes it all the more important for you to know how to wear lingerie as clothing. It’s time to embrace the underwear as outerwear trend and use your loveliest pieces as the base for a stunning look! Read on.
Complete Transparency
Ditch your solid shirt or any less breathable fabric for a top made of crochet, net, mesh or other porous material – a material that you can see right through when you hold it up. Choose a bralette in a coordinating pattern or a colour and wear it underneath. This style is something that you can’t miss this hot summer. Feel chilled out and look carelessly sexy!
Get suited
Well, we think nothing’s sexier than a bodysuit made of lace and we stand by our opinion even when you’re planning to dress up for the daytime. Lace bodysuits are a thing now and if you are out looking for that perfect piece, know that you need to have a lot of time in hand, as there are a variety of lace bodysuits among which you need to select the one (or many). These lace bodysuits tend to free your nipple, which only the daring ones can carry (if you do, more power to you girl!). If you are not comfortable showing off your assets, you can wear another layer under your bodysuit. Pick some lightweight bra in that case. Bodysuits are the best for a night out. For a super sexy outfit, pair it with a lariat necklace and a black miniskirt. Of course, you can never go wrong with a bodysuit, as it works with pretty much anything!
Short order
Another way you can incorporate your lingerie into your everyday summer wardrobe is to make use of your silk pajamas into use. Whether they feature a loud print or are lined with delicate lace, they can be styled to look great. We would recommend you to get an oversized button-up shirt, which is a bit sheer to wear over the shorts as well as super breathable. Close the top two-three buttons and leave the rest undone, letting a triangle space of your stomach to peep through. Have a matching bralette? Wear it underneath. This look works fine with comfy sneakers, loafers or slip-ons.
Layer it up
Want to try something different? You can try reverse layering. Wear your bra on top of your clothing as an accessory. You need to select a bra that goes well with your base outfit – a classic. Solid complementary colours and clean lines would work fine. Here, the mantra is – less is more.
Contrast colours
Wearing contrast colours never fails to turn heads. You can play with contrast colours by allowing your bra to show from a deep V-neck top. If you are bold enough, you can choose to colour block your underwear with your outfit. This will make it even more of a statement.
