Upgrade Some of Your Summer Styles
This sexy blazer below is work approved, but not only can you wear it to the office, you can wear it on a night out! A blazer is a piece that can put together a full outfit and you can make it sexy, or work casual. Most women like to keep their arms covered at work just because it is more appropriate for the office. But when you go out, you can choose to keep it on or take it off and show a little skin! This garment is a perfect add on to an outfit because it gives off a sexy vibe, but by not showing too much! If you’re going out to drinks after work, meeting up with the girls, or even have a date, this piece is the most reversible clothing item out there. Add a pop out color underneath and it will add so much more to your outfit. If you are going for a more professional look, try a black, white or grey blazer and put on a burst of color underneath such as a red or pink for that summer feel. Wear a couple pieces of jewelry and either a slack or dark colored jean with a small pump or heel, and you will be the most stylish person at the office. The blazer shown also has the perfect hemming because it focuses on the woman’s smallest part or her body, her waist.

This particular piece can shrink you from a size 10, to a size 8 by just putting it on. The shoulder pads also give a great balance to the cinched waste, which makes you look even smaller! Try going for a lighter weight blazer as well because you don’t want to be weighed down in the summer. Lighter weight also doesn’t make you look bulky as a thicker one can.
How about a day at the beach? Want to hide your stomach but not make it seem like your hiding it? Try these new amazing high waisted swim bottoms, or even a cute cover-up! They can each make the difference of how you feel in a bathing suit. By wearing the high-waisted bottoms, you are going to be tucking in the tummy, but showing off that sexy small waist by showing a little peak of skin. No need to feel worried about those love handles anymore! It may feel like you are wearing a one-piece, but the back-to-the-fifties style is so in for the summer. You will be getting all the looks on the beach, and not because people are looking at your tummy, but because they wish they could pull off a suit like this one!

Still feel like you want to cover up a little more? Who said you can’t wear a cover-up! This little number above covers all those spots you want to hide, without really hiding them. This piece has the perfect length if you want to hide the tops or your legs and butt, but also covers the stomach and the shoulders as well. If you haven’t hit the gym this summer, the sleeves on this cover-up hide the tops of your arms where a lot of women can feel self-conscience showing.

Going on a date with a cute new guy? Try spicing it up a bit with this cut-out harness dress with an asymmetrical bottom. The cut out makes you feel sexy, but not overdoing it, while the hi-low bottom lets you show a little leg, but not feel like you are a teenager exposing everything above the knee! This dress is perfect for a date night either out to dinner, dancing or a walk along the pier, or how about all three? It is fun, flirty, and inexpensive; the perfect combination for an amazing night. Even if you don’t like how your date is going, at least you can say, “Dammit I look good.”
To add to this outfit, try a pair of wedge heels that extenuate the leg making you look even leaner and taller. If you are into jewelry, wear some black, gold, or silver bangles on either one or both arms to give you some extra style points. Add some matching earring and you are all set!
