Get a pencil skirt
You don't need a mini-skirt to show off those toned legs. Try a pencil skirt instead. It’s office-appropriate and figure-flattering. Just make sure the tailoring is on-point! Zara.com, $60
Avoid low cut blouses
Turtle necks on big busted women aren't the most flattering–I get it! But that’s still no excuse to be walking around your job showing ample cleavage. Instead try a V-neck blouse. It creates the perfect balance. Piperlime.com, $55
Try an A-line dress
An A-line dress elegantly flatters a curvy frame. Add a belt to cinch in your waist. Lordandtaylor.com, $100
Add a blazer
A fitted blazer is a quick and easy way to pull your office look together. Take it to the tailor for a custom fit. Newlook.com, $38
Wear high heels
Tacones work in almost every office setting, but if your job is ultra-conservative, avoid the platform pumps and try a pointy toe version instead. Asos.com, $50
Try a wrap dress
Wrap dresses flatter just about every shape. Pair it with some heels and bold accessories for a look that’s sexy but still very professional! Oldnavy.com, $20
Consider trousers
Who says trouser pants can’t be sexy? Try a slim ankle style that will compliment curves and elongate legs.
