The Sexiest Age Ever

Just like a bottle of Pinot Noir, body confidence only gets better with age:Women feel their sexiest at 31 years old, according to a new survey reported in the Daily Mail.
The dating website Singles247 polled 2,000 people and found that women reported being most sexually confident at age 31. It's definitely an interesting stat, but you shouldn't let the age on your birth certificate tell you when to have BeyoncĂ©-level fierceness—that can happen at any age. Need proof? We asked our Facebook followers to tell us at what age they felt their sexiest. Here's what they had to say:
"Definitely 40. I now have hard-earned wisdom, confidence, and most of all appreciation for my body—flaws and all—that I lacked at 20." —Julia Jones Sinsel
"Around 30 I became so confident and that made me feel super sexy!" —Bethany Greene
"I feel sexy right now! I'm 24 and believe everybody should consider themselves sexy at any age! Confidence is key, and sexy is what I will be." —Nina El Barkani
"I'm 33, and I have to say it's been a great year and seems like things are only getting better. Sexy is something that comes from within, and I think as we age we become more comfortable with our bodies and then, and only then, can we truly be 'sexy.'" —Tiffany Ketcham
"Now at 52. In the best shape of my life and love it!" —Lori Marmer

"I felt really sexy once I turned 33. I feel more confident to voice my wants and needs. Nothing can hold you back when you take ownership of what you feel." —Dhiulhia Julia
The bottom line: Sexy is a state of mind—and you can gain that killer confidence at any age. Check out these tips to start owning your sexiness right now.

Easiest Way To Look Sexy

1. Flash Some Color"Pair your everyday neutral shadow with a brightly colored metallic liner. For example, use a rich green liner with taupe shadow, or aqua liner with bronze shadow. The key is to keep the line very thin and close to the lashes along your top lash line so that it's just a hint of color," says WHbeauty director Molly Nover-Baker. Try Sephora Flashy Liner Waterproof in 08 Flashy Blue, 04 Flashy Green, and 12 Flashy Ultra Green, .

2. Wear a "Sex Kitten"Sweater 
"A fuzzy angora sweater just makes men want to reach out and touch you," says WH contributing accessories editor Jennifer Yoo


3. Expose Your Shoulders
"I love wearing a boatneck top to show off my shoulders," says WH senior fashion editor Thea Palad. "It's one body part that you can always count on to look good."


4. Show Some Skin... Places
Slim-fitting cropped pants are everywhere this season. They're a timeless, body-loving basic, and they shine the spotlight on an underrated erogenous zone. "A glimpse of ankle peeking out of cropped cigarette pants can be so sexy," says Liza Collis, WH fashion market editor. 


5. Make a Lotta Noise
Stacking on thin gold bracelets can take an outfit from day to night in an instant. "There's nothing practical about having a pile of bracelets on your arm," says designer Rachel Pally. "You're not going to be sitting at your desk checking your e-mail while wearing those!" The flash ofgold and the jangly sound are a little exotic, "and they make me feel sexy," adds Pally.

6. Let Loose
Most guys aren't down with updos. "So try an undone bun—it's soeasy and sexy," says Johnny Lavoy, owner of Moda-Rey Salon & Spain Connecticut. "Spray your hair with a little lightweight hair spray,such as Elnett. Finger comb it into a high ponytail, then twist the ponytail into a loose, messy bun and secure with large hairpins. Finish with another quick blast of hair spray. Add a cute headband for instant glamour."


7. Go for Long,Flowing Silhouettes
"I'm always hearing from women who say that their boyfriendsor husbands like them best in looser, flowing clothing items—a womanly, sensual shape that skims along the body and doesn't constrict," says Gaby Basora, designer of Tucker. "Right now, longer skirts and long drapey dresses feel really sexy."


8. Blush Like You Were a Naughty Girl
"Flushed, glowing cheeks are always alluring. It looks like what happens after...well, you know," says celebrity makeup artist Pati Dubroff. "Apply blush onto the apples of your cheeks and blend it to soften the edges." Try Tarte Natural Cheek Stain TEN , a creamy stain that looks perfectly postdeed pink on every skin tone.

9. Layer It On
Red lips are sexy—no surprise there. But you can make them more modern by applying a hot pink shade over the red. "Start with a deep matte red," says April Greaves, a makeup artist in New York. "Blot, and then use a lip brush to paint on a layer of bright hot-pink lipstick." Try Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Cruella, and Milani Lip Flash in In A Flash, .


10. Get Deep
"Any nail hue that makes you look dead or goth (such as black orgray) is so unsexy. Instead, go for a super-dark shade that has some color, like a deep plum or inky purple. And keep your nails short and well-manicured—chips are not hot," says Nover-Baker. Try OPI NailL acquer in William Tell Me About OPI, or Sonia Kashuk Nail Colour in Stop Whining

13. Let Your Necklace Dangle Dangerously
"I'm obsessed with long, slinky lariats like this metal one from Flying Lizard Design " says Palad."Knot it up, leave it open, or just play with it. It'll draw the eye right to your decolletage," she says.

15. Shop His Closet
"Menswear-inspired clothes on a woman can be very sexy. There's something about the gender play that's irresistible," says Pally. "Ilike to pair a solid men's oxford shirt—top few buttons undone— with a patterned or beaded mini and great heels." On model: The Limited top, 


16. Go Glam
"My clients always say their husbands or partners like simple looks the best," says stylist Karyn Starr. Wearing a bold, jeweled costume necklace over a tee fits the bill—it's effortless but still chic. Try Jessica Simpson Collection necklaces,

18. Make Your Skin Shimmer
"I love when my skin has a sexy glow to it, so I mix up my own blush concoction.

Try Origins Brush-On Color in Coral Reef, and Philosophy Amazing Grace Shimmering Face Powder,
