The Sunday 10: Reasons why suits are sexy (on men and women)

Time for my fashion Sunday 10! This week I have my top 10 reasons why suits are sexy - on everyone! So let's get into it!

10) There is something about a suit that exudes status, power, wealth, and authority. A well tailored and styled suit can make you top dog in the board room, and can be the difference between getting the job or losing out to someone else...likely a person in a great suit!

9) They can take you from work to a night out on the town. Ladies swap your work top for something a little more glam, or if you're feeling daring, just go with a sexy bustier under the jacket. Fellas you can take off the tie, or button down the shirt to reveal a fun tee underneath.

8) You don't have to wear it all at once. You can take the jacket and wear it with jeans, you can take the pants and wear it with just your business shirt sans tie, or a great bow neck blouse. You can even take the vest of a three piece and go for a geek chic look with a striped collar shirt and bow tie. When you buy a suit, you are buying 2-3 essential pieces that you can mix and match through your wardrobe.

7) They leave just enough for the imagination. Suits are made to flatter you, to hug curves, broaden shoulders, and make you feel like you've got a superman suit on underneath. Couple it with the status that a suit gives you, and you have instant sex appeal. People just want to know what you're packing under there!

6) No matter what your fashion tribe, there is a style of suit to suit your personality. Be it clean cut and preppy, far out with a crazy pattern, or rough and tumble and a bit rock n' roll, you can make it your own, and showing your personality off is just as sexy as showing off your ta-ta's or muscles!

5) Like the empire line, this is timeless. Humphrey Bogart did it in the 30's and it was sexy, Sean Connery did it in the 60s, and it was still sexy, Harrison Ford and Dennis Quaid did it in the 70s and 80s and yup still sexy! Then even women started doing it like Sharon Stone and Cher, and today we still see some of the sexiest stars alive sporting a simple, yet elegant suit. A good suit will last you a lifetime and help you hold onto your mojo for years to come.

4) Now this one is a little bit naughty but what would this list be without some naughtiness! Suits are fun for your partner to take off, or maybe even for you to take off for your partner! The untying of the tie, the slowly undoing (or not so slowly undoing!) of buttons, removing all those layers is ready made foreplay, no matter how you do it. 

3) The suit does the work for you. All these things above boil down to one thing: built in sexy. From the accentuating of your shape, to the allure and power, to the built in foreplay, all the work is done by the suit. All you have to do is work it!

2) There is a suit to suit everyone. No matter what your shape, height, size, or colouring, there is a suit out there for you.


1) Just look at it! Look at this...                                  






















...and this...
Need I really say more? There's a reason why it's James Bond's true weapon of choice.


I apologise for the delay this week too, I was having some technical difficulties! Next weeks Sunday 10: The top 10 trends I hope never make a come back (but probably will or already have!)
