Victoria's Secret Clothing

The Tops

You don't have to be built like the Victoria's Secret models to enjoy the fit and comfort of a top from the catalog. Here are a few favorites:

• Bra tops: These combine a bra and shirt into one incredibly wearable piece. No more worrying about if your bra straps show in your skimpy summer tops. They're not all skin-baring, though; bra tops include styles like the long-sleeved empire waist shirt, the Tie-neck bra top, and the Crossover bra top.

Love the IPEX bra from Victoria's Secret? How about that technology, but in a corset meant to be worn on the outside?

• Sweaters: When a sweater comes from the Victoria's Secret clothing collection, you know it's got to be mesmerizing. They pair the most feminine styles, like the Bouclé deep cowlneck sweater with the girliest and most sophisticated shades around. The result? A second date.

While there are some look-at-me styles available, they're not all what you'd expect from a lingerie store. You can also purchase cuddly turtlenecks, tunics and cardigans.

The Bottoms

Perhaps one of the best bits of news for all you tall gals out there is that Victoria's Secret carries long lengths. If your inseam is 36 inches, not a problem. You can get that in their career pants, jeans or even yoga pants.

Let's start by discussing the yoga pants since there's a good chance you'll want to live in them once you try a pair on. They're soft, they're colorful (if you'd like), and they're often on sale for around two for $50. They're made from imported cotton/Lycra spandex.

The jeans are divided up based on how low of a rise you'd like and also by the leg so you know exactly what you're in for even though you can't try them on in a store first.

If your bottom needs some extra curve, consider the VS Uplift™ styles. You can get the skinny jeans, hipsters, and even cropped styles with the patented uplifting technology. It promises lift, contour, shape and firming.

• If you have a special event coming up that you'll need a dress for, you can shop Victoria's Secret's selection. Whether you want the classic little black dress or you want to be a pop of color in a sea of somber, check them out. Here are a few favorites:
  • Babydoll dress, $99, available in beautiful cobalt blue or black.
  • The Open-back Minidress is in fact, a little black dress. But it's got a twist. Click and see.
  • All the dresses aren't short. The Halter Maxi Dress is an especially sophisticated style for an evening out.

Outerwear

Some of Victoria's Secret's cutest clothing requires a little covering up before stepping outside. Luckily, you can make it a one-stop shopping experience. They have:

• Coats in wool, leather, suede and "fashion" styles
• Jackets
• Blazers
• Suits (in case you find the perfect cami but you're still looking for the other, more important pieces for wearing to that interview)
