Set up your camera and capture a shot of yourself in boxers or joggers while making breakfast. Pay attention to the angle and natural lighting to ensure the shot looks great. Get creative, make it fun, and leave the rest to the imagination.

Suntanning at the beach can be really sexy because a nice tan gives your skin a healthy glow, and beachwear shows off your natural curves.

You’re sweaty and your skin has a healthy sheen to it. And you in skin hugging yoga pants and a well-fitted sports bra? Rest assured, your man will be turned on. You don’t even need to sport VS abs because keeping in shape isn’t just about that. The fact that you lugged yourself to the gym, even after a long day at work, will make him appreciate your effort.

Big juicy lips aren’t just a “girl thing”. Men like it too. Reports have shown that pouty, red and shiny lips are much more attractive than a nude lip. So, get your gloss on.

The age-old trick works. Whether or not you were actually in bed, just strip down to your skivvies and pull up the sheets (make sure to expose some cleavage). He’ll definitely have a good morning.

Nature’s very own highlighter. You also don’t have to be stark naked to get a good shot of your body. Anything in silhouette form looks great and all your curves will be accentuated. It’s always good to leave a man wanting more.

High heels are sexy. Sheer black stockings and garters (or fishnets if you prefer) are sexy. Channel your inner Angelina Jolie from Mr & Mrs Smith, except instead of hiding a gun in your garter belt, you’ll have something much less painful and way more pleasurable waiting for him. Take a photo of your legs, while peeling off the stockings and heels and hit send.

Let’s face it, there’s a reason the eggplant emoji represents a certain body part. Certain food is phallic-shaped, while others are well-known aphrodisiacs. A picture of you licking a popsicle or a banana will show you’ve got a healthy appetite.

It’s not just about your cleavage all the time. Don’t forget your neckline and collarbones. Put on some simple jewellery (like the dainty necklace he gave you for Christmas), stand facing the sunlight and your collarbones will pop.

To make them stand out even more, apply some highlighter to the tips of your collarbones. That way, you’ll get that extra healthy glow.

Role play

Are there certain outfits that he finds alluring? Whether it’s a nurse, Playboy Bunny, or pilot, take a picture of yourself in said outfit with your best ‘come hither’ look.  If you have props that add to the outfit, e.g. spectacles for the sexy secretary look, a stethoscope for a doctor, it will only add to the anticipation and the ‘role’. Did somebody call the doctor?

Strip down to your undies and artfully arrange your body behind a large book, a la Bridget Jones’s Diary, while you gaze into the camera. It’s not a nude, but he won’t know that - the suggestion that you could be naked will drive him wild.

He loves it when you walk around the house in just his shirt and a pair of knickers so why not show him what he's missing? It's very likely he'll get jealous of his shirt and count down the minutes till he'll be able to drape you with his body instead. Make sure the shirt's unbuttoned so he gets the best view.

You can take a stylish over-the-shoulder shot or one of just the lower half of your body, as long as he gets a clear view of his shorts on you. If you want to take it a step further, have one hand down your (well, his, actually) pants.

Wrap yourself in a towel just as you step out of the shower, then snap a photo. Make sure you're not totally dried, so he can see the water droplets on your body.
For bonus points, take the photo without a towel but behind the steamed-up shower screen so he still can't see any skin and will have to use his imagination.

Wear a skirt or dress (it doesn't matter what it looks like), sit with your legs crossed and take a photo of the bottom half of your body. Then send it to him with this caption: “I'm not wearing any underwear”.

He loves your ample bosom so why not sent him a photo to remind him of it (as if he could ever forget!). Wear a top with a low neckline, with a peek of just the top of your cleavage. Or put on your favourite lacy bra and give him a shot of the whole package instead.

You know how crazy he is about your long legs so why deprive him of it? Pose for a pix while sitting on the side of the bed, with your bare legs crossed. Take it one step further by wearing some sexy heels too.

Your lips

Put on that shade of lipstick he loves and take a close-up of your lips. If you want to get a bit naughtier, bite your lips to up the sexy factor.

Take a picture of yourself lying seductively in your bed, fully-clothed, and add a caption like, “Wish you were here” or “It feels lonely without you”. Or just take a photo of your empty bed, with a message such as, “Plans for tonight?”

Stand with your back facing a mirror, take your top and bra off, look back over your shoulder, and then snap a photo. Don't forget that cheeky grin!

Your belly

Go up close for a shot of your belly area, with your belly button showing, as well as the top of your panties (lacy type preferred). It'll drive him wild that he'll have to wait a while to get to take them off you.

You don't even have to put it on. Send a photo of your sexiest bra-and-panties set thrown on the floor or on a hanger in your closet and add a message like, “Would you like to see me in this?”

It doesn't matter if it's a one-piece or two-piece, you in your swimsuit will make him think of the sun, the sand, the water and sex. Snap just a part of your outfit or give him a full-body view by taking the photo in front of a mirror.

Send him a photo of a table set for two, with a bottle of wine, then tell him to hurry home so he can have you for dessert.

Your tan line

Just got back from a sunny holiday? Use that sexy tan line to your advantage. Take a photo of yourself in a bra (or even in a top) but push one strap down to reveal your tan line. Make sure you get only the tan line and your strap, so he knows what he'll see next time he takes your bra off.
