What better way to stay cool this summer than by skipping heavy fabrics and going for something light and sheer? The sheer fashion trend was a big hit on the spring runways, and you have to admit the trend definitely looks summery.
As with any trend that involves showing skin, this look takes courage (and confidence coach factory store!) to pull off. So, if you’ve got what it takes to bare it all, check out this week’s Fashion Challenge:
Tips and Tricks for Rocking the Sheer Look- Layer. If you aren’t one-hundred percent comfortable wearing a see-through shirt coach handbags outlet, try a sheer button-down (like the one in Picture 2) over a slinky tank. You don’t have to show too much skin to get the effect: even a sliver of arm can be sexy.
- On a similar note, try a bandeau top. If you are comfortable with something a little more revealing but still want to keep things in the G to PG-13 range, layer a sheer blouse over a bandeau bra top (see Picture 3 above). Try here or here for some simple and cheap styles in a range of colors.
- Balance is key. Because you are showing a large amount of skin on top, stick to more conservative bottoms. A pencil skirt, shorts with a masculine edge, or simple jeans would all look amazing.
- Nothing says sexy like skin. A sheer look is the perfect match for a fun night out. When you’re looking for something a little bit over-the-top, sheer is the way to go. Pair it with something sparkly Coach Outlet, and your looks will say “I just wanna have fun”.

For this outfit, I chose to layer a sleek, fish scale-print sheer blouse over a lacy, feminine bandeau bra top. Layered friendship bracelets, gold posts, and a rugged cross-body bag give this look a tribal feel. Simple denim shorts and black gladiators keep the look grounded and warm-weather friendly. I think this blouse would be a great cover up for a tribal or boho swimsuit as well (try this one, recommended by Rachel Zoe).

I layered this lace blouse over a purple tank and tucked it into a ruffled skirt. Black and white accessories polished off my look. I loved this outfit because it incorporated the sheer trend without looking too sexy or over-the-top!
