Some things are just not meant to live solely in the bedroom.
There's
a reason why lingerie is made with so much thought and craftsmanship
these days, and it's not just to please your significant other on
Valentine's Day. Like any beautiful garment, some bras, bralettes and
bodysuits are meant to be mixed and matched into a sartorial look that
best expresses your style. At the very least, wearing lingerie both in
the boudoir and out in public will get the most bang for your buck.
How do you do it without inciting a HR violation? Let the celebrities serve as your inspiration: Kim Kardashian West
is a master of wearing undergarments outdoors—you'll often see her pair
delicate, sheer or satin bustiers with tough denim jackets or
tailored-to-perfection trousers for a well-balanced contrast.
Bella Hadid
is also a champion of the lingerie trend. However, the model tends to
mix dainty lingerie with edgier pieces, like baggy boyfriend jeans or
dad sneakers.
To see how other style stars flaunt their pretty little things in public, keep scrolling.

When wearing undergarments out, you don't want to ooze
150 percent sex appeal. To maintain balance, pair a piece of lingerie,
like Bella's corset she wore after the Alexandre Vauthier couture show,
with distressed, baggy jeans and dad sneakers.

Wearing lingerie out doesn't have to be a loud
statement. Sometimes, it can be just as subtle as the model's lace
bandeau bra peeking out of her well-tailored, sophisticated ensemble at
the Dior show at Paris Couture Week.

Don't feel relegated to lace undergarments. Try textures in velvet, suede, satin and even denim, too!

Lace bustiers, bras and bodysuits are inherently sexy.
To style the piece in a more fashion-forward way, it's all about
layering pieces on top so that only an accent of the lace peeks through.
EmRata used a lace bodysuit as the foundation to her ensemble, adding a
cardigan and patterned suit over it in complementary colors to create a
well-thought-out look.

A sequined bralette? Why didn't we think of this first?
It doesn't have to look costume-y either—just make sure the design is
minimal and you opt for a neutral color.

Ashley Graham
The slip dress is now universally acceptable to wear
outside (thank you, Kate Moss circa the '90s)! But to take the look to
the next level, add a corset around the waist for added texture.
Ruth Negga
The illusion look doesn't always have to be so feminine.
Follow in the actress' footsteps and take a more badass approach by
pairing a bralette and sheer dress with leather pants and combat boots.

Cara Delevingne
The trick to this look is to mix textures. Pair a sturdy suit material like corduroy or velvet with a strappy bralette.
Sara Sampaio
The Canadian tuxedo got a sexy upgrade! To pull off this
look, pair loose-fitting boyfriend jeans with a chambray shirt. Tuck
the top in but leave the buttons open to reveal a cute bralette.

Anna Kendrick
Believe it or not: Lingerie can have a menswear-inspired twist. The
Pitch Perfect 3 star paired a La Perla bustier with a high-waist Balmain suit and pink pumps.
Josephine Skriver
The Victoria's Secret model paired a lace bodysuit with a mini ruffled skirt.

Kim Kardashian
A bustier and a pair of tailored trousers are a powerful
combination. For daytime, add a jacket for a polished look. For
nighttime, ditch any outerwear and get ready to take on the town.
Would you wear this trend?
