Keeping that in mind, NLT has conjured up 12 trendy ways in which you can wear a slip dress without looking too provocative. These styles are going to see you through all seasons so you need not worry about that!

Slip dresses are supposed to be very sexy. But not everyone is so ballsy to flaunt what they’ve got in front of others! Well, not me, at least. So for people like us the sensual level of the slip dress has to be toned down, a little! We say let’s transform it into a skirt and layer it with a t-shirt. You can also layer it with a sweater depending on the weather. Peek-a-boo is sexy but totally acceptable!

I'd type a little faster.” This Isaac Asimov line, embraces my love for writing in the finest and most desperate way that it is and should be! I was tormented by the earnestness of the written word not very early in my journey. But once smitten, it has helped me devour life twice over; savoring the moment and indulging in its memories. As a flâneuse, I wander to understand the intricacies of human relationships. Realizing that, they are just different manifestations of the same feeling of love, has been my greatest learning. I seek to share its opulence through the words I type.
