3. Laser hair removal

Should I go dressy sexy and wear my little black dress and favorite stilettos? Or should I go casual sexy and throw on my favorite pair of jeans? What look actually embodies "sexy?"

I'm sure I'm not the only one who's been whipped into a frenzy trying to figure out which look men find sexiest, so I've asked real guys on what outfits they find sexiest on a woman.

"For me, it's a tie between two looks: jeans with tears in them and a form fitting shirt (could be a t-shirt or even a button-down) or a form-fitting skirt (not

SHOO FLY! Don't bother me! -Harley Helms, BettyConfidential.com

Okay, all my Barbecue Barbies! You know I'm just like Scarlett O'Hara in Gone With The Wind! I'm just a Southern Belle, born and raised in North Carolina. This past weekend I was attending a lovely outside function, when all of the sudden it seemed like I was on the menu! I was totally exhausted from swatting mosquitoes and God knows what else that decided the "Harvey Buffet" was now open for business.
