Check out the Feb 06 issue of Teen Vogue for ideas (see above picture of Gemma Ward.) Get more ideas from SS06 Miu Miu:
Wearing corsets, or camisoles over T-shirts can be a tricky business, here are some tips: - T-shirt should be plain colored. Simplicity is the key.

One last little note: For night, go for more neautral combination of colors. But for daytime, go for lots of colors this spring/ summer!
