Hello Everyone!
Summer is great for many reasons, not least of all because of the free pass we all get to break some fashion rules here and there! The beautifully clear skies, hot air and bright sunshine get everyone into a laid-back summertime vibe, pushing the boundaries of fashion. One rule of thumb that I strongly stick to during the winter is that your bra and underwear should not to be seen in any outfit. However, come summertime, I feel more care-free start to flash a little satin, a lacy bra strap, here and there! Here are some gorgeous bras that are too cute to be hidden!
Show Off Your Bra Back
Shown here is the Brigitte Sheer Lacy Underwired Full Cup Bra by Bra Doctor Lingerie, and as you can see it is one hot number! I have it, and I love it. What you can’t see in the photo, however, is the lovely back. With a one-hook clasp, the back band of this bra is thin, and made with same allover sheer lace, so you won’t even worry about hiding your bra in open backed tops and lower-backed dresses – because you won’t have to! Feminine, eye-catching, but not over-the-top or gaudy, this bra is not one to be hidden.
Flash Your Straps
Bra straps tend to move around as you do, even in the best fitting bras, and this can prove frustrating in spaghetti-straps, racerbacks or even t-shirts. Luckily for us girls, lingerie designers have placed the same focus on the straps as into the design as a whole! This means that straps don’t have to be plain or boring anymore; lace, satin, ruching, ribbon – straps can have it all. The Basics in Silver Lace Padded Underwire Bra by Naturana Lingerie is this kind of bra! Put it on under your tank tops and show off your gorgeous figure and your pretty lingerie.
Let Your Bra Peek Through
As I’m sure everyone has noticed by now, sheer fabrics are huge at the moment. One look that has crossed over from the runway, to the streets, and even made its way onto the red carpet is the lace/sheer top over a black bra. While slightly exhibitionist in nature, this trend can be pulled together with the right bra! The Seductive Comfort with Lace Customized Lift Strapless Bra by Calvin Klein is perfect for this outfit, because it provides maximum coverage and has opaque bra cups, is extremely comfortable and won’t slide down your body, meaning you won’t be showing any more than you intend to!

14 years agoHi Rachel,
As always I enjoy reading your blogs. I wanted to let you know that I like showing the straps on my Eva Rosanna. I have some thin strapped tops that once in awhile I get “in the mood”, I’ll put the bra straps out from under, to make sure they are seen. And sometimes, I confess, that I will wear a scoop neck top that lets the lace on top of the bra, you know, accidently on purpose peek out ! Then when I feel “a little naughty, I wear my Black lace serenade bra under my Italian Lace Tiffanny top. Its a sheer top and the two look pretty good together! All in fun!
Thanks for the fun article!
