"Toniiiiiiiight's the niiiiiiight," you're probably singing that to yourself. You've washed the sheets, subjected yourself to one seriously brutal Brazilian wax and downloaded a honeymoon's worth of Sade. Now comes the big question: what to wear? We all know that you're a lady (wink, wink), but tonight calls for something sexier-way sexier. Channel your inner porn star with these racy get-ups, which we've paired with red-hot lingerie options that will make him hyperventilate just like Brad does over Angelina. Let's just hope he makes it to the bedroom in time!

Read on for our five fave looks.
Look 1: Greased Lighting
The Outfit:
Ditch the sweet Sandra Dee look and embrace your bad girl side with this sleek all-black ensemble, like Ginnifer Goodwin's. Whitney Eve's black bustier top ($127, revolveclothing.com) hugs your curves and offers a dash of pin-up charm, while Goldsign's skintight Jem legging jean in position wash ($165,singer22.com) screams "tell me about it, stud." Don't forget a sexy pair of peep-toe heels, such as L.A.M.B.'s zebra-striped Dawna pair ($199.99, piperlime.com).

The Underwear:
Because you're wearing a bustier top you can get away with skipping a bra. However, if you feel like you need some extra support up top, stick to a strapless bra that won't interfere with the top's lines or be revealed when you lean forward. We love Wonderbra's boudoir-ready ultimate strapless bra ($44.80, figleaves.com), which boasts a gorgeous lace overlay. And because your painted-on leggings leave little to the imagination, it's best to stick with a thong that won't give you the dreaded visible panty lines. Our pick: Chantelle's sublime thong ($30, bergdorfgoodman.com), which features racy sheer panels that are right up your vamp alley.
Look 2: Curves Ahead
The Outfit:
Plus-size babes needn't be shy about showing off their ample curves.Jenna Ushkowitz of Glee looks fab in this sexy number. Slip onCalvin Klein's gathered neck stretch satin sheath ($178,nordstrom.com) in Caribbean blue for a form-fitting but flattering look that's perfect for seduction. Throw on a beaded wrap if it's a chilly night, and strut your stuff in Pelle Moda's trendy Lexie pewter strappy leather heels ($225, jildor.com). He won't know what hit him.
