Whether you're looking for a new man or you've let yourself go a little after finding a boyfriend or husband, it's important to maintain your looks if you want to keep a man interested. By making yourself look sexier, somehow it makes you feel sexier, too. With just a few tips and tricks, make sexy your everyday style.

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Stylish clothes
  • Make-up
  • Heeled shoes
  • Well-chosen accessories
  1. Step 1

    Wear well-fitting clothes that fit your personal style. You can wear gothic-chic or bohemian, cowgirl or tramp, the specific style doesn't matter so much as the way you feel when you're wearing it. When you feel sexy in the clothes you choose, you'll look sexy to others because of the natural and comfortable way you move.

  2. Step 2

    Keep your hair healthy and shiny. Get your hair trimmed professionally every couple of months to keep it from looking shaggy and unkempt. Avoid perms and colors that damage hair and learn to be happy with the natural look. While many men prefer long hair, you can make any style sexy by experimenting and consulting with a stylist.

  3. Step 3

    Apply makeup to achieve a natural look, especially during the day. Add more drama to your makeup at night, but a sexy look doesn't always mean piling on the eyeshadow and using red lipstick. Learn to go for a smoky-eyed look by applying makeup correctly.

  4. Step 4

    Whiten your teeth for a sexy smile. Nothing detracts from your looks like stained, yellowed teeth. Brush at least two to three times per day to keep teeth white and your breath fresh.

  5. Step 5

    Accessorize your outfits with an eye toward the dramatic. A hat or bold earrings draws the eye to your face, while a belt makes a man's eyes linger lower. Find your best features and use accessories to emphasize your natural attributes. Consider glittery, metallic accessories if they match your look.

  6. Step 6

    Pick shoes to that make your legs look long and sexy, making sure they have a slight heel. High heels naturally make a woman's gait more sexy. Tall boots can also be a sexy option, if they match the rest of your outfit.

  7. Step 7

    Avoid baring too much skin, since a peek-a-boo look is more sexy and leaves a lot to the imagination. Especially avoid baring areas if you're slightly out of shape, instead choose to show the areas of your body that are in shape, such as your legs or neckline.

  8. Step 8

    Choose fabrics that make a man want to explore with his hands as well as his eyes. Lacy shirts with a tank underneath, a sequined top with a silky skirt, and a cashmere sweater with jeans all say "touch me" and "look at me."

Tips & Warnings
  • Avoid clothing that is too tight or too loose.
  • A visit to the cosmetic counter of your local department store allows you to have a professional teach you the correct way to apply makeup.
  • Buy complete outfits that you find sexy. Often, a displayed outfit was put together specifically to achieve the look you're going for and you won't need to do more than add shoes and jewelry.
  • Don't over-do anything. Too much of a good thing can quickly turn into a bad thing. This includes lipstick, colors, fabrics and visible skin.
