Remember when the schoolgirl look projected just enough innocence to make it a suitably kinky stereotype?
No longer. The way girls dress today — all ruffled mini-minis and midriff-baring tees — leaves nothing to the imagination. (Thanks, Britney.)
Time to bring back the traditional (and far sexier) version with Ladybug blouses. Spun off French schoolgirl shirts, the pouf-sleeved chemises are made from 100 percent Italian cotton, come in Liberty of London prints and classic stripes (pink, blue, yellow), and have a rounded, silver-trimmed Peter Pan collar. Unlike the uniform you had to wear, it’s cut to accentuate all the right places, which means the fit is super flattering. They’re the perfect way to keep people guessing whether you’re buttoned-up demure or old-school kinky.
Just the effect you want.
