Curvy Looks: How to wear that 80's Sheer Shirt Now

Today’s fashion is filled with a lot of sheer and almost nude, aka barely there clothing isn’t it curvy divas?  Did you know that trend didn’t just began with Rihanna’s barely-there dress or even Rose McGowan’s chain dress. 

Nope, sheer fashion has been a trend for as long as I can remember. But as many styles that become trends always do, one minute they are extremely popular, and the next they are not.  The sheer trend is more popular than ever today with each actress and entertainer trying to outdo each other in what they do not wear from one function to the next! 


I’ve always enjoyed having sheer clothing items in my closet because I find them really attractive as optional layering.  One such item is a shirt I have had for a while now that has been sitting in my closet with nowhere to go, until now!
To modernize my 1980's sheer shirt, I decided to wear it as a jacket over my new boyfriend jeans and a tank top.  I was hesitant to do it, but pushed aside my fears and found my fierce fashion Friday boldness!




 The pros & cons of giving a new look to my 80's sheer shirt were:
1) As I went through my day I appreciated the sheer top for the coverage (my arms & my curvy assets), and the sex appeal factor.  Which woman doesn't want to be and feel attractive uh?!  
2) I disliked that the sleeves, being really wide, so I rolled them up but they kept sliding down. Next time I’ll pin them in place.  

Is this a look you would wear?  I will definitely wear this look again.  Hey, sometimes what you wear makes sense only to you! So, Be. You.
