How to Dress: Your Complete Style Guide for Every Occasion. Gok Wan

Dream

      The simplest ideas are often the best. Pale colours look soft and feminine, and a little lace detail at the top of the bra and on the edge of the knickers adds a little pretty-pretty for my girly girl. With an outfit this playful he’ll be hoping for more than just breakfast in bed.

      Simple cream and nude sets are less visible under white or sheer fabrics than bright white sets!

      Accessories

      Chilling out doesn’t have to mean slobbing out! For easy-like-Sunday-morning dressing it’s all about feeling comfy and looking chic – just add some fabulous accessories! And while bedroom dressing is really about less is more, you can style up your look with some of the sexy suggestions here.

1	A shrug or knitted capelet is a cute alternative to a dressing gown – cosy without covering you up!
2	Colourful slouchy socks are the new slippers; so soft he won’t be able to resist snuggling up!
3	Hold-ups are just as foxy as suspenders but a whole lot comfier – sex on legs!

4	Heels add height and shape to those pins; über-bare backless mules are the most flattering of all.
5	For a sexy burlesque show with an audience of one, try a totally Moulin Rouge tiny top hat or saucy long gloves. Encore!
6	High socks aren’t just cosy; they’re cheerleader-sexy too.
7	A mesh scarf adds some flirty glamour to your look, you total vamp!

      Gok’s sneaky style tip

      Peep-toed high-heeled shoes are retro-flirty and will elongate your gorgeous pins (don’t forget that pedicure!).

      Gorgeous, when it comes to underwear I am not taking any excuses! Your perfect underwear will trim, tone and smooth that fabulous body of yours, leaving nothing sagging or bagging and without a stitch of surgery.

      Whatever you’re wearing, and no matter what occasion, wearing the right underwear can dramatically alter the way the rest of your outfit looks. Don’t think that because it’s underneath your clothes it doesn’t make a difference! Good underwear is like magic dust, transforming a good outfit into one that’s great.

      For those occasions where underwear is all you’re going to wear, you can look foxy and fabulous by wearing the best underwear for your shape and by really taking care of that super-soft skin.

      So my gorgeous, whether it’s for the bedroom or the boardroom, for a weekend wedding or a weekend in bed, it’s time to chuck out those old bras and head to the lingerie department. Girlfriend, we’re going shopping!

      Apart from making you look totally drop-dead gorgeous, underwear can be the sexiest thing on the planet.

WORK WEAR

      Professional, polished and pulled-together

       how to stay cool when it’s hot in the city

       office to out-on-the-town outfits

       catwalk cool that stands out from the suits

      I’m sure you’ve seen the movie Working Girl. It’s one of my favourite movies ever; those huge big-shouldered suits are a fashion moment in time I will never get tired of watching!

      Happily for you, office elegance has loosened up somewhat since the Eighties, and these days the look is more about stylish polish than power dressing.

      Chic tailored trousers and sexy figure-flattering dresses are your new ‘suits’. Your working wardrobe might even just be a smarter version of the clothes you like to wear anyway, and dress-down Friday might mean pulling out some of your weekend-wear a day early.

      DRESSES

      You know why dresses work for work? Because, like you, they’re über-efficient; they look beautifully pulled together, and in zero time.

      Crisp, tailored shapes work best: sleeveless shifts and shirt dresses. And let’s not forget the wear-anywhere sophistication of the classic wrap dress.

      SUITS

      Suits you madam! A classic men’s three-piece trouser suit is a seriously foxy look for the office. Show them who wears the trousers with the full Annie Hall look – sexy Savile Row-style, with a sleek polo neck sweater. Better yet, get suited and booted with some leg-lengthening high-heeled ankle boots.
