Kandi Burruss has a knack for dangerously sexy looks. Whether she's having a casual beach day, hosting a scandalous bachelorette party, or celebrating her own birthday, The Real Housewives of Atlanta cast member has been known to invoke her inner dominatrix with some well-placed leather and a little black fishnet. 

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta on Peacock and the Bravo App.

On her May 17 birthday, the singer reached a milestone age in the naughtiest way. "This is [45]!" she wrote. "I’m thankful for all the love everybody has been sending my way. Thankful for my family, friends, & good health! I’m gonna continue to unapologetically live life to the fullest, continue to get the bag, & help as many people as I can to do the same. It’s time to take it up a notch!"

And indeed, Kandi made no apologies while striking a sultry pose in a black bustier, a leather thong, and patterned tights. A slick of glossy black lipstick and long, ebony nails played up the dark and moody vibe. But for a pop of color, Kandi added a cherry-red garter belt. 

In another post, Kandi continued to "take it up a notch," dancing around in more racy styles. She wore red-leather bunny ears, leopard print, and a fluffy, short look made entirely of white feathers.
