STAR TANK TOP

Often, it's good to keep things simple. This low-cut tank top and hip-hugging jeans needed only super shades to create that Jessica-Biel-goes-shopping look.

RETRO-FUTURISTIC

I don't go gaga for tattoos and I don't think they make regular people sexier. When even the concierge at The Ritz has them, it's time to consider their relevance as a rebellious statement. However, some creative daring women have turned their bodies into fascinating canvases. That, I can appreciate and hope they don't live to regret it. Interestingly, these tattooed vixens identify themselves very closely with pinup models of days gone-by, whose skin was untouched by extreme ink art. Pinups, though, were the subjects of countless tattoos. Odd interpretation. Anyhow, we digress. Fantastic vintage outfit with a checkered tube top and a 50s-style skirt, connected by a wide belt. There's something quite charming about the retro vibe and the red flower in her hair next to all the 21st century technology.

KILLER TANK

Skinny jeans, open-toe heels and a fiery red and black tank top make a very sexy and uninhibited statement. The wide shoulders and elegant neckline contribute to the impact. Do not be fooled by the innocent bangs and ponytail. There is more wilderness in this woman than in a Kenyan reserve.

EVERYDAY TIGHT LEATHER

Tight leather pants can be the ultimate 80s hair band fashion calamity or a classy and very sexy choice. The devil is in a couple of details. The boots must be toe-licking good. Any range of heels, from flats to vertigo-inducing stilettos will fly, for as long as the footwear is knee-hi. In the example above, she chose a sensual light flowing top. The idea is to keep it tough below and as feminine as possible above, to showcase femme fatale duality. And with black & white, the contrast couldn't be any bolder.

FINESSING THE TANK

A sporty white tank top is a mandatory piece of clothing. Even a fire hydrant looks great in it. But turning such a plain top into something special requires a little flair below the waist. These draw string linen pants, bound to compliment any shape, are just dandy. The choice of powder blue, an extremely flattering yet under-used color, scores extra points.

SMOKING BERMUDA

I'm one of those weirdos who does not find smoking sexy. But here comes the tacky pun: she would've been smoking without the nicotine stick. The bermuda-style jeans are rarely seen and bring more flair than your average shorts. These ones have a vintage vibe to boot. Paired with a low-cut colorful tank top, laced heels and Hollywood shades, the overall thing delivers the perfect dose of daytime street-glam.

WHAT THE...?

This thing zoomed by me too fast to dissect it properly. Under torture, I wouldn't be able to say where the top ends and the bra begins. What made it fly was the beautifully shaped back (if you got it, show it) and the fact that she cut through the crowd as if she had just purchased the world and someone owed her change. This idea won't work for everyone, but she rocked it that day.
