Cotton Camisoles: Dos And Dont's
Cotton Lingerie
While they are definitely not considered exotic lingerie, cotton camisoles are a wonderful lingerie drawer basic and must have for women of all ages.
Originally worn strictly underneath one's clothing, today's
camisoles and cami sets
can be worn as both inner and outerwear, and are perhaps among the most versatile intimate apparel available.
From lightweight stretchy camisoles in cotton for summer wear to a thick, warm cotton camisole under your winter clothes, there are a multitude of camis to fit every need.
Cotton Do's
Here are a few of our favorite cami do's and dont's...
Do...
- For a polished feminine look, wear a cotton cami with lace or satin trim under your suit jacket, blouse, or even sweater for the office.
- For summer weekend wear, pair a cotton with lace camisole with your favorite jeans or crisp white pants for an effortless casual look.
- For a fun casual look, layer two camisoles in complementary or even contrasting colors. Match red, green, blue, or a pink camisole with white or black camisoles. Be sure both have similar shoulder straps and necklines.
- Need more support? Wear one of the new
camisole bras
that have a hidden
shelf bra
or molded underwire cup bra for more support.
- Love to workout? Cotton is a natural fabric that breathes and keeps you cool. Pair cotton camisoles with workout wear such as your shorts, leggings and yoga pants.
Cotton Dont's
Don't...
- Mix and match fabrics. For example,
sheer camisoles
or satin camisole with cotton...too many lingerie looks together are a no no for outer-wear.
- Choose a skimpy camisole if you are busty and need support...instead look for a cami with good support or a more substantial tank top with pretty lace or mesh trim.
- Wear a black bra under a white camisole. It will show through. Instead, opt for a white or nude colored bra. Or, better yet, choose a camisole with built in bra.
