Slip into something less trashy

By Courtney Hollands

Tsk, tsk Lily Allen! Were all the mirrors in your flat temporarily clouded over? How could you attend GQ's "Men of the Year" awards at the Royal Opera House in London earlier this week with your belly button and panty lines (and thigh outlines, ew) clearly on display?

Don't get me wrong. I like the spicy orange hue and even the cut of this flowing dress -- but if you're going to go sheer, you have to be smart. Get a slip! If you're not thrilled about lacy, frumpy slips-of-yore, there are several comfortable and sleek variations on the sometimes necessary underthing. Lily, might I suggest American Apparel's sheer jersey chemise in cream? At only $22, it's a solid solution to your see-thru woes.
