The basic bra and panty. One can’t go wrong with a bra-and-panty-set. This look is seductive with lace; sweet with ruffles and flowers; or wild and crazy with neon colors. This is practical because it can be worn under any outfit, so you can whip off your clothes for a special surprise.

Dance like a Pussycat Doll

When flipping through music videos, it is difficult to keep your mouth from dropping at the sight of a Pussycat Dolls music video. Whether you are a boy or a girl confronted with the spectacle is irrelevant. The Dolls’ sultry demeanor and flawless stomachs causes most guys to contain themselves in their inseam and turns girls green with envy.
