Looking good and feeling hot is so much more than just racy lingerie and red lipstick. And it’s not that those things aren’t tantalizing – they still make the rounds for a reason – it’s just that we need to expand our definition of what is and isn’t seductive. Feeling attractive is whatever you make it, whatever you feel good in. If that’s your favorite leggings or your partner’s T-shirt, so be it. I’ve felt as attractive in athleisure as I have in lingerie, and I’m sure you have your own version that doesn’t stay tucked away in your intimates drawer.

Now’s a great time to reconsider your old standbys when it comes to racy apparel. Play with your sense of smell by putting on this rose-scented lotion. Or wear these lacy thigh high stockings straight from dinner to the bedroom. You don’t need to drop stacks and stacks of cash to feel like a million bucks. You can look (and feel) more hotter for cheap. In fact, the most expensive item on this list rings in at $35.

It doesn’t matter if you’re boo’d up or riding solo, because looking hot is first and foremost about feeling yourself. Scroll through these 45 cheap ‘n’ saucy items that will have you covered from head to toe, metaphorically speaking.
