Boy Shorts are a Cut Above the Rest
The “boy” in boy short doesn’t mean that these underwear aren’t for ladies. In fact, boy shorts are much sexier than their “granny panty” cousins, far more comfortable than thongs and much less visible than the traditional bikini panty. Boy shorts start just below the waist and end just below the curve of the buttocks. These types of panties resemble tiny shorts.
Boy shorts are great to wear under tight jeans, fitted dresses and tapered skirts. These underwear won’t show unsightly lines beneath clothing and won’t ride up into places they weren’t meant to visit. Boy shorts also are great to wear underneath flowing skirts or mini skirts because when the wind blows the skirt up, boy shorts will give the appearance of shorts.
Out on the Prowl with a Catsuit
Back in the late ’90s and into the beginning of the new millennium, it seemed that Britney Spears could do no wrong. Every career step seemed assured – from her scantily clad schoolgirl look in the “Hit Me Baby One More Time” video to her more serious work singing melancholy ballads. As a 12-year-old girl at the time, I was especially struck by Britney’s choice of attire for the “Oops! I Did It Again” video.
That infamous red-stretch catsuit set the tone for the rest of Spears’ career, and it went on to influence women’s fashion circles for some time to come. Most recently, the lycra catsuit has come back into style in a big way. Its ideal for a good old-fashioned ladies night out, and it definitely makes a bold statement. Even if Britney’s career hasn’t aged so well, at least one of her trademark fashion choices panned out for the best.
The Best of the Best in Costume Jewelry
Although many people consider diamonds the gold standard for jewelry, that doesn’t mean you can’t find quality items using synthetic diamonds or rhinestones. It is impossible not to shine when you have something like this on.
Many of the very best designs were heavily influenced by the Art Deco movement. A rhinestone bracelet can be an elegant, high quality, and well-made alternative to a much more expensive diamond alternative. And rhinestone jewelry allows you to bring glamour wherever you go.
