Okay..
I'm 17.
Five foot three and a half.
And I want to look sexy, in my own way.
I won't change my hair or my piercings for anyone but me.
And I don't want to.
But, I AM scared of showing off my body.
34C-24-37.5.
I want to be able to wear a cute skirt and top without feeling like everyone is pointing and laughing. (I have slightly fat thighs. =x and my legs jiggle.)
Any ideas on what clothes would make my already extreme curves look more inviting, without making me look trashy?
I also wear a size 9 in womens tennis shoes.
I have big feet. I know. But they ARE NOT ugly! I promise.
I feel stupid for posting this.
Clothes are material. You're focusing on trivial matters. Clothes will not make you look sexy until you feel sexy within yourself, cheesy.. but very true. In order to do that you need to focus on what you don't like and take it upon yourself to change.. IE your legs, you think they're large and they jiggle.. so work on toning up.
You need to be confident within yourself to feel sexy and appear to be so around others.
For the time being.. clothes that will make you look "better".. try not to wear anything too tight, this doesn't mean you have to be extremely baggy either. If you want to wear a skirt try looking into knee length.. obviously not tight mini skirts otherwise you will look like trash. Comfortably fitting knee length summer skirts would do ok i think. Other than that just find a top to match that you feel comfortable in.

I have a toned body.. But my mom and grandma both have "thick thighs" and bubble butts, so I inherited it. I'm not really improportional or unproportional, whichever it is. . My legs are extremely strong, but I feel like they're huge when I wear a skirt because they smush against chairs and stuff. Maybe I need to stop looking at my legs.

What the fuck is a DivaCup?

I think you should stop looking at your legs :D Unfortunately we all inherit things we don't like from our parents.. mine being my terrible skin.. but just learn to focus on your better assets :D
Just because your legs "smush" against chairs doesn't necessarily mean they're overly large.. maybe it's just a small chair!
The whole point of growing up i think is to learn what your best and worst features are and to work around them. I think looking at the good side of them is better than looking at the bad. You have them for life so it's worth trying.
As long as you're confident you can wear anything you want and look good!

What about a dress like this:

with leggings

and cute ballet pumps.

Iv seen larger girls around here wearing that combination, and it looks really cute.
You would probably be better to experiment with the colours, those Iv chosen are all black but you get the idea.

It seems like you have all the right curves so wear something that shows off your best bits and compliments your worst. Find a well fitting top (a kimono style one would look amazing, or trapeze type shape, a wide almost off the shoulder neckline would look great too!)and combine with a mid-thigh skirt but make sure you get one that has some shape to it (eg pleated or slightly floaty) and interesting design or bright colour will look good too. If you combine this with tights (they make bigger legs look better with skirts) and boots (ankle or mid-calf) with a slight heel. This will lengthen and slim your legs which will hopefully give you the confidence to wear a skirt and feel good!

Problem to the person who suggested the dress/leggings/ballet shoe things..
I'm not a "larger" girl. I'm very small, I just have a big butt and slightly jiggly thighs. 115 lbs isn't large.

I've been told I have great curves, but I just don't know how to flaunt them. I have black vinyl knee high lace up platform boots (3.5 in heels) and I love them, but I can never find the right skirt. I like wearing flip flops too, but they make my thighs look even thicker. And I absolutely HATE wearing tights/nylons/fishnets/anything of that sort. I should probably get a tan, seeing as my legs are as white as this box I'm typing in.
I plan on going shopping soon; I'll see if I can find some mid-thigh skirts and shirts like you suggested. Thanks. =)

you can wear a skirt, just wear some heels or pumps with it. It will make your legs look a lot longer, which also makes them look thinner.

Okay I don't think you need to wear revealing clothing to be sexy. Being sexy can also come from the way you act and carry yourself. Wear clothes that make you feel sexy, rather than show a lot of skin. You could probably show glimpses of your chest, but don't show too much...no one should, it sends out the wrong messages. Good luck!!
Oh also, on another note, I know that after I work out or go for a run I feel even sexier. Maybe try that, and even my make-up and hair can make me feel sexy, so fool around with all of that.
Remember you're a superfox!

I'm not saying it has to be revealing. And I don't like my face, no matter how much make up I put on, so I normally just wear a little eyeshadow and mascara. If I have the energy I'll put on eyeliner and the works and stuff, but most of the time I just don't feel like it, and I feel like there's no use because its not like anyone looks anyways. My boyfriend is convinced I'm like the most gorgeous thing on the planet, but I really don't see it.

Well if he thinks you're gorgeous then you shouldn't doubt yourself so much. :D
I know that you need to feel pretty yourself and you need to do it for yourself but don't do it so you can please others.

why be sexy when you can be beautiful? I would much rather be beautiful than sexy/hot.....sorry, and being beautiful is in the eye of the beholder. So just stay with who you are and live life to the fullest...don't worry what you look like

Yeah see I thought you were larger because of your hips and waist measurements...kind of through me off that your waist is almost as big as my hips...
Turns out I weigh a good 10 lbs more than you, haha buttttt that's definitely from my muscle, I'm very trim.
okay so now back to you looking sexy....would you say you have a flat stomach or more of a budge??

My waist is 24 inches.. my hips are 37.5
And my stomach is flat, hard as a rock.
If your hips are only 24 inches, there's something wrong.;]

And as for the comment about my boots...
Anyone who has seen me wear them says they're extremely sexy on me, since I'm very pale (but not in a pasty way - in a milky, creamy way).
Especially with this cute little blood red plaid skirt I have.
But, I like to move alot, so, short skirts and boots don't work if I have to bend over. =X

I don't have any freetime.
I can post an old one.
But it's kinda trampy.
I was dressed up for a halloween party. =X
Don't poke fun.
And I've gotten about a year older, an inch taller, and gained about 10 lbs.
But I pretty much look almost the same, cept slightly bigger boobs, and an ass that makes my favorite jeans not want to fit anymore.
I'll get new ones when I can.
