Wear a statement bikini

If you\'re a mismatched Primark tankini kind of girl, then we have news for you: you\'re going to have to up your game if you want to hit Bond girl pedigree. A bikini may seem like an unimportant throwaway item you wear for two weeks a year at most. Wrong. As Ursula Andress, Britt Ekland and Halle Berry fully understand, a statement bikini can make you an icon, and is worth a thousand words.


Retain an air of mystery

sex tip,james bond,quantum of solace Retain an air of mystery These girls aren\'t about to go blabbing about their latest job/crush/drunken mishap. And neither should you. Retaining an air of mystery makes these girls seem even more attractive to their gorgeous seducer. For Bond girls, talking is like clothing; a little goes a long way.

Be fiercely independent

sex tip,james bond,quantum of solace Be fiercely independent Both in the books and in the films, the girls in Bond\'s world are all incredibly independent. Whether running an all-women troupe of aviatrixes (Pussy Galore), working as a Soviet intelligence officer (Tatiana Romanova), or a doctor of atomic physics (Christmas Jones), these ladies are content looking after themselves in a man\'s world. Meaning much of the time, they decide when and if Bond\'s done enough to get them into bed.

Learn a martial art

Sexy and skilled, these strong women exude confidence, and know how to handle themselves in a fight. So why not take up martial art classes? Keep fit, tone muscles you never knew you had, and look fine. So much cooler than a tedious 20 minutes on the treadmill.

Always dress to impress

fashion advice,james bond,quantum of solace Always dress to impress Popping to the shops in your old trackie bottoms does not a Bond girl make. Instead, if you\'re hoping to ensnare a sexy spy, you need to wear your slinky best, complete with killer heels, striking diamonds (concealed weapons optional) and hang out at casinos, private mansions, and swimming pools. Preferably in that bikini.

Use a silly name

sex tip,james bond,quantum of solace Use a silly name Pussy Galore, Dr Holly Goodhead, Tiffany Case, Xenia Onatopp, the list goes on. To be a great Bond girl, you have to have a ridiculous moniker. Find your Bond girl name here, or invent your own and have some fun persuading strangers (or your man) to call you Truly McNaughtie or Anna Maneata all night.

Buy your man a decent set of clothes

Then make like Vesper Lynd (Eva Green) in Casino Royale and buy him an incredible set of clothes. It\'s that sexy tailored tux she leaves in his hotel room in Montenegro that finally made Daniel Craig into a Bond we were happy to be seduced by.

Be as sexually confident as your seducer

sex tip,james bond,quantum of solace Be as sexually confident as your seducer If there\'s one thing that\'s true about all Bond\'s girls, it\'s that they\'re sexy as hell. These hot minxes aren\'t waiting for 007 to turn off the lights before they wriggle apologetically out of their jeans and support knickers. Bond girls know what they want and they\'ve found the man that\'s going to give it to them. Their phenomenal sexual confidence, matched only by that of Bond himself, is what makes them great. So embrace your inner sex siren, and go get yourself some 00-heaven.

Don\'t expect it to last

sex tip,james bond,quantum of solace Don\'t expect it to last We all know some men just aren\'t keepers, no matter how suave, sexy and charming they are. International secret service agents with a licence to kill fall into this category, as do many others. If you\'re lucky enough to meet someone sexy, stunning, suited and totally unsuitable, don\'t let us put you off getting exactly what you want from the encounter. Oh no! Just don\'t come crying to us if he\'s not still there come breakfast time.

Don\'t fall in love, and definitely don\'t marry him

weddings engagements,james bond,quantum of solace Don\'t fall in love, and definitely don\'t marry him Yes, ladies, it has to be said; the minute a lass falls for James Bond, she tends to end up dead. Vesper Lynd (Eva Green) didn\'t last the movie, nor did Paris Carver (Teri Hatcher). However, it\'s Tracy Draco (Diana Rigg) who has the saddest scenario of all. The only woman to truly snare Bond into marriage dies minutes after the wedding. Some men just aren\'t worth the long-term drama.
