If your outlook on lingeries has always been, “Why should I spend money on something that can’t even be seen by others?” then we want you to stamp out that thought rightaway! Lingerie is not just about what you show to others or your man but most importantly it’s how it makes you feel on the inside. Unlike normal clothing material, lingerie is often made of silk or satin making them feel absolutely luxurious to the touch.
The thing about lingerie is that it can boost your self confidence and make you feel better about the way your body looks because they also make your outer garments fall and fit better. Chemises, baby dolls or negligees, how do you know which type of lingerie will suit you best?
First of all, identify your body type, your problem areas, and your best assets. Then, educate yourself so that the next time you go lingerie shopping, you know precisely which rack to scour for!
Petites should go for padded and underwired bra corsets to enhance the upper half of your body. The good news is that you’ll be able to carry off negligees regardless of material! Also try to wear lingerie that halts just above your knees to show off more leg.
Taller women should wear a longer top or a peignoir to show off your height.
Plus-sized girls tend to shy away from lingerie thinking it won’t look good on them. Well, that’s because you’re not wearing the right ones, honey. Wear negligees or opaque over gowns will conceal your problem areas whilst still projecting that cheeky look. Try teddy or peignoir type lingeries as they highlight your busts and takes away focus from your tummy.
Everyone wants a heftier bust line but too much of anything isn’t a good thing because they tend to sag unfortunately. Heavy bosoms look great with underwiring as they provide support to your busts and prevent them from sagging so try on a baby doll, bustier or corset.
On the opposite scale of the bust issue are the less endowed women. Fret not, sexiness is about confidence and personality not your cup size. Try a camisole that highlights your svelte figure and flares out towards the bottom.
In the world of lingerie, fabric is everything. Design is how you want others to feel about you but fabric is about how you want to feel about yourself. The usual suspects are those in cotton or intwined lycra and they’re usually more affordable.
For days you want to feel special, pick out something with lace or satin. Negligees made with lace, tulle or chiffon leave plenty to imagination, just watch the annual Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show and you’ll know why.
Every girl deserves to feel special, so let lingerie be your little naughty secret!
