Wearing Lingerie as Outerwear done right to me is a fun play on sexuality and fashion. Spring season is steadily approaching and I am already think of some fun ways to revamp my "style persona". Why should lingerie only be worn for late night rendezvous for only the men to see. It is now time to show off our undergarments for everyone to see. (I know I sound like I want to walk out in a see through teddy.) Lingerie worn the right way is ubberly sexy and fun. As pictured Johanna from Lookbook.nu has a high waisted pencil skirt, blazer, and layered necklaces displayed the bra as a top rather than a something that should be worn to bed. I know some ladies are not that bold to show off their mid-section and completely expose themselves. If you are a more reserved fashionista such as myself, wearing something see thorough is little more your speed. Wearing a nice shear button up shirt would be great to still be able to show off your garments without feeling completely naked. And wearing a nice loose fitting tank top in the summer is also another great way to pull this look off.
But please be careful if you are going to wear a bra as a garment make sure the material and structure is correct. Never go for anything sheer. You can have a nipple slip without ever knowing. And please make sure you have the correct size bra, nothing needs to have the possibility of falling out and being exposed. So all you ladies that have thought about showing off bras, I say open those shirts and let those puppies breathe. LOL!!!
Below are some choices in some playful yet feminine bras that can easily be worn as garments.
And I have to ask are any of you FOR or AGAINST this TREND?
Big Shoulders are back and in full effect. I remember all of my mother shoulder pads shirts and dresses. I thought they were the most god forsaken fashion choice. Having something perched right on my shoulder to give the illusion of a women linebacker. NOT!!!
But one day I had a true awaking, I NOW LOVE SHOULDER PADS. I dont what changed for me, but the silhouette of the body with the outward tails of shoulder pads is a divine combination. I now want blazers, dresses, shirts with shoulder pads.
A great to achieve this look for less is checking your local thrift shops for some vintage finds.

Whitney Port by far is one of my favorite fashionista of all time. Her style has just the right mix of classic yet some trendworthy looks. I am a huge fan of "THE CITY". I love to watch and see the new elements of fashion that only they can give. This edition of Seen In Action is showcasing the Tyrant shoe by TopShop.
The sneaker/skipper has a great edge with the studded accents. For ONLY $40 they can be yours. I COVET THEM HARD!!! I am glad they are so affordable. They are now only avaliable in the purple and white.

I am very inspired by the neutral color palette. I am not so sure it is fall appropriate but who cares, I am not a big follower of trends anyway. I was browsing on Polyvore.com and came across some beautiful collages of the true inspiration. Below are some items that us "frugal" ladies can afford and still hold true to the essence of neutral tones.

Midriff "Party of One". Showing a little skin is definitely the rage for the fall season. Rihanna and Cassie give a great example of cropped shirt done right.
Making sure to still exude class while showing skin is key. If there is a part of the body that is being exposed please make sure that other areas are covered. Showing to much skin at once can easily take a look to be unclassy or unlady like.
