what's your tips on feeling sexy! It's ridiculous I'm 24 (well almost), gone from 10 down to 8 stone 10, which is a good weight for my 5 foot height. I just don't feel sexy I work 5 days a week and mostly just feel tired and frumpy. I have a gorgeous fiance who tells me I'm beautiful all the time but just don't feel it!!!! any tips would be appreciated!!!

Making yourself feel beautiful is quite interesting as a woman.
The tired and frumpy feeling is from work, although you may not work physically hard your brain work is quite tiresome. Start to help yourself by making the inside feel good, start taking vitamins, go for nightly jogs with the fiance or do some simple 20 minute exercise together, and make sure your eating healthy. Make sure you are covering your needs scale - Health and happiness - with these things you can overcome any negative or bad "feelings"
These things make the inside feel good wich in turn makes the outside feel better, if you know you are excersising, eating right, and spending time with those you love you will have a better ora about yourself and wont "feel" anything but great!
As far as the "Sexy" part - it may just be how you dress that sparks that ambition in all of us. So you work 5 days a week I bet your not spending the same amount of time to get ready for work as you would for going out. Consider this, on those days when you feel frumpy but want to feel sexy, do something simple as curling your hair or painting your nails may give your ego a boost!
Good Luck!!!

Oh sweetie! And you've already accomplished so much! Now I haven't met you - so I'm sorry if this doesn't work for you but it jolly well works for me. Though from your use of the word "fabulous" I'm imagining I might NOT be totally barking up the wrong tree. ;-) My theory is that when you (or one in general) feels tired and frumpy it then turns into a feeling that you are ordinary and unspecial. Unglamourous, dowdy, dull, dull, DULLLLL.
What you must do is GET GAY! in the 1940s sense of the word! heck! In EVERY sense of the word. Pull out your dancing shoes, slap on a sparkly purple wig and make your way down to the gayest, friendliest club or bar in the area. Go where the people are young, fun and full of happiness and life and gossip and glitter. Go where there are podiums for people to dance on. Put your hard-earned a salary to use by sitting at a table with a good friend, your dear fiancé and any others you probably picked up along the way and order a bottle of champagne! It works wonders.
I used to do this every Friday evening when I lived in London and it WORKS, it really does.
Also plan a special event every other day, it could be a walk in the park with your fiancé, tea at that smart coffee place you never get round to going to, or uncorking a bottle of champagne with your loved one at the end of a day. Planning these events will make every day the run-up to a party, a celebration. After all, what are you working so hard for - if not to lead a happier life!
I made vouchers for my fiancé (also gorgeous) and rather than put the usual dirty ones I made vouchers for different types of dates or events, such as "a night of star-gazing", "champagne in the park" (I know I have a thing for champagne, I'm a Leo I can't help it - it really does cheer you up though!) and stuff like that. It doesn't have to be romantic - just date/event ideas, both small and big! This way you won't have to come up with an idea on the spur of the moment - difficult when you're tired - plus it's a voucher so you've already PROMISED to do it! After I made my vouchers, not to be outdone - my fiancé then made his own vouchers for me and we decided that as soon as those vouchers were used up that we'd make new ones.
Having fun is the absolute sexiest thing anyone can do. It will immediately eradicate all unsexy feelings from your mind. You won't doubt your fabulousness, you won't question it even for a second. And the best thing of all - you will be fabulous. And sexy. Automatically.
;-p

I agree with the other contributors who have suggested a new hair style. It can work wonders for your self esteem. But after that, go somewhere like Anne Summers and buy yourself the trashiest, sexiest, naughtiest undies you can find and wear them under your favourite outfit. Go out for an evening on the town, you will feel, sexy and naughty all night. I'll bet your fiance will keep asking why you are smiling to yourself. But dont tell him, tease him by telling him he will find out later.Let him find out later in the evening, you wont be able to get the smile off his face or yours for several days. And you will feel like the sexy gorgeous woman you are. You will never look back!

Go get a massage! Go to your beauty salon and get a a new hair cut.
Take stip tease classes!!!
all the actresses on Housewives do! they are sexy.
SEXY comes with age, and maturity!
Buy sexy underware.
YOU didn't mention what you do for spiritual and mental self.
Do you go to the gym and work out?
that makes me feel fit and good and sexy.
I like to tan it makes me feel warm and sexy.
I love to wear expensive perfume, find a scent that really turns you on, and wear it, it will help you feel and smell sexy.
Take a modeling class, learn to walk, and do a photo shoot and take some sexy photos, have your fiancee take what he thinks are sexy photos of you in you bikini or you birthday suit.
Take a good look at yourself, and have him write down what makes you sexy. Read what he wrote every morning and night, and you will wake up with the sexy thought of him on your mind and fall asleep with the words of your love, saying why you are sexy.
Go take long bathes, and put on oils and perfumes, wear sexy pj's made of silk.
Wear a sexy bra.
it's all inside of you, it's your confidence and not feeling mature inside........sexy is a state of mind.

Go shopping for something new and bright. I go to the salon and get my hair done. and then put some make up on a new outfit. maybe some new perfume and ask my hubby for a date. I also buy something sexy to wear that night. Im pregnant now and feel like a cow lol and he is happy but even though he makes me feel good i still need my self esteem to rise too by doing stuff that makes me feel good. So im going to get my hair done again soon when i shopping again for maternity clothes and shoes. Just have a you day. Go with your friends to the mall. get a magizine. new make up and nail polish and some good movies and tell your hubby your having a you day and then that night go on a date with you new self. But it's on the inside that counts too.

Well, working out 24/7 isn't going to make you feel too sexy in my point of view. I guess it's all in the seductive additude. Maybe you can start wearing more tight-fitting clothes or show off just a little more skin so you can show off your bod, but without being too skimpy.
And, of course, the most important rule is to LOVE YOURSELF and embrace the way you are right now. My tradition as a pre-teen, although it may be really weird, was to kiss myself in the mirror every morning after I shower. It helped me like who I was.

I work similar hours to you and to try and relieve the boredom and make me feel fabulous at work i try to do something a bit different on my lunch breaks like go get an express manicure or my make up done for free in Frasers - just a little pampering will brighten up your day! Oh and wear bling - lots of sparkly bling will do the trick - even one night when your just sitting in watching corrie - get the heels on , pour yourself a glass of champers and paint your nails or something!!!! works every time

I put on comfortable clothes that I love, and walk down the street. It sounds crazy but after a minute or two, I just don;t care at all what people think about me. I smile at people and just get totally relaxed. I find that I'm not inhibited in any way and I just get elated for some reason. Can't explain it, but you should try it. it's so empowering to not be vulnerable to other people's judgment.

Get your hair highlighted
Buy sexy lingerie - not trashy - sexy
Have a pedicure and manicure
Visit a makeup counter and have a mini-makeover
You can do all of these things, or just one from time to time. Fabulous is a state of mind, and it's totally attainable!
