Don't save your sexy underthangs for after dark-bring them out to play during the day. Model Candice Huffine shows how to do it. Model and body-positivity activist Candice Huffine brings the heat-without even breaking a sweat. Her confidence and badass style (just check out the vintage T-shirt collection on her bomb Insta feed) can only be described as #Goals. Oh, and she also has her own sporty clothing label. In between posing for these fire photos, the influencer talked fashion, success, and self-love.

About Lace

Try this juxto: Layer something super femme under any blazer or jean jacket. The allure is in the surprise.

Rebel at Heart

"I once showed up to high school in a black miniskirt, oversize sweater, and leopard knee-high boots. Everybody else was like 'What are you doing?' I was having fun and going for it-and I still do. I'll try any look from bohemian princess to rock-and-roll queen."

Night for Day

Want to add a little sass to your skivvies? Cowboy boots are major this season and add some toughness to a tender ensemble.

Born to Stand Out

"One thing I've learned in life is to speak your mind. In fashion, speak your style. I don't save my outfits for a hypothetical rainy day, I just wear them. There's no wrong way to dress or express yourself."

Skin and Bare It

Nothing pairs with all those blues in your closet than crisp white.

Beauty tip: Get that bedroom glow any time of day with a sweep of Maybelline New York Master Chrome Highlighter in Molten Peach, $10, on your cheeks.

Signature Style

"Dark skinny jeans, a crisp tee, and a leather jacket. Very New York, very versatile. It's that comfy, confident look that works for everything."

Vintage Image

"The tees are trendy but have sentimental value. I wore a vintage Batman T-shirt on my first date with my husband, and I still have it in a drawer stuffed with faves, like an amazing neon one from a Rod Stewart concert."

Peek-a-boo Play

Silky scarlet isn't just for bedtime with boo. With white or creamy pastel, it'll easily work a day shift.

Beauty tip: A shiny red polish is the lingerie of manis-it's sexy anytime, anywhere. Try Dior Vernis #999 Rouge 999, $28.

Body Love Above All

"We give so much of ourselves to others when we should really work on our relationship with ourselves. Self-care-without the hashtag or face mask-is essential. Look in the mirror and say 'You got this!' Meditate. Exercise. Whatever. Be kind to yourself every day."

"With my athleisure brand, Day/Won, I made what so many, myself included, were missing-gear that makes every woman feel her best if she's running a marathon or watching a Netflix Marathon."
