Summer is nearly here, so women everywhere are getting ready to walk that fine line between comfortably showing a little skin with confidence or exposing more than they should. It's a balancing act, but clearly most of us could use a little more help than what comes in a bottle of self-tanner. A sleek silhouette has been known to work wonders to showcase your best assets -- shoulders, clavicle or cleavage -- to their advantage this summer, at work or on that getaway vacation.

One of the best ways to get that sleek, smooth look and keep free of bulges, lines, or errant straps that peek out in the wrong places and the wrong time is a camisole with a built-in bra -- it alleviates the bulky feel and look of a tank layered over a bra and effectively solves the tricky strap dilemma.

Camisoles like these are more versatile than you can imagine. Not only do they fit well under jackets or cardigans in the office, they're also perfect to wear under sheer tops. When the temperature really heats up, peel off the top layer and wear just the camisole on those hot city nights or relaxing days at the beach.

One popular brand is Hidden Assets by Cuddl Duds, available at most major department stores and at a price that won't break your budget. They come in several styles, like a strappy, scoop neck camisole, a dramatic push-up style, or a tank with padded straps for added comfort.

Hidden Assets' maker, O'Bryan Brothers, has made women feel comfortable for the last 25 years. They use innovative techniques that create a natural bust shape. The camisole's patented built-in bra prevents the flattening effect you often get with shelf bras. Its precisely engineered, molded cups of smooth stretch foam work with polyester power netting back, which is edged in an elastic comfort band. The result creates a perfect fit, and with no back hooks, anchoring the bra for better support.
