Lingerie As Outerwear

When we think of lingerie and intimate apparel shopping, we think of sexy clothing meant to be worn in the comfort of your bedroom. But did you know a number of lingerie fashions can actually be worn as outerwear? In fact, many classic lingerie items such as camisoles, chemises and babydolls are in style and used as such by women everyday.

Leading the charge of stepping out of the bedroom and into the public eye is the sexy cami, or camisole. This woman's undergarment covers the top of the body, it is sleeveless, and typically tight fitting in contrast to a loose-fitting chemise. Because they can be worn over a brassiere as well as without one, they can clearly be used as outerwear. Some camis even come with built in 'underwire'. So when looking at camisoles, depending on the style, consider its dual role as a sexy lingerie piece and a comfortable outerwear top.

Babydolls are also no stranger to the public eye. Yes, some are clearly nightgowns or negligees intended as nightwear. But there is no shortage of selections that may be worn while out on the town with a nice pair of Capri pants. What about a corset or a bustier, you say? Certainly! These are also quite popular at the moment. When looking at corsets or bustiers, you will see many styles that can be worn with, say... a nice pair of jeans.

So remember, when shopping and looking around for sexy lingerie, those very items that you intend to wear as a nightie or a comfortable around-the-house outfit might just double as a look-sexy-feel-sexy night on the town fashion hit. Happy lingerie shopping!
