When it comes to looking pretty in the bedroom, nothing beats being entirely bare, but lingerie puts a lovely packaging on something that is already pretty stellar. Though most women have fantasies about erotic romps in silk and lace, it can be a little intimidating when you get to the store and you are confronted with all of those frills. On top of that, most women simply don’t have the bodies of lingerie models and finding something flattering can be daunting.
If you are having lingerie fears, take a moment to think about what lingerie looks best on you. There are a number of wonderful options that will make you feel exactly the way you want to feel.
Cinch It In!
When you are a little shy about a soft belly, you will be able to get an amazing figure upgrade by slipping into a corset. A corset has metal or plastic boning that will nip in your middle and lace tightly up the back, giving you an hourglass figure whether you were born with one or not. If you are feeling nervous about the heavy hardware that goes with corsets, consider choosing a waist cincher instead. Where a corset needs to fit your waist, hips and bust, a waist cincher only needs to fit your hips and your waist.
Get Fitted for a Bra
The Huffington Post states that every woman should own a lacy black bra. It’s true that a lacy black bra is a great choice for any lingerie fan, but does your bra fit? No matter what your bust size, your bra band should sit snugly to your body and the cups should cover your breasts. Make sure that you go to a professional fitting establishment to get the bra that you deserve. No matter what your shape, a well-fitting bra is key to your lingerie quest!
Slits
If you are on the short and petite side, you might be a little nervous about wearing lingerie that makes you look like you are playing dress up. To give your body a little bit of length and a bit of elegance, choose silky sheaths that are slit up the leg. She Knows suggests that the slit gives you some height, and it offers a sexy glimpse of your leg as you walk.
Babydolls for the Busty
If you are large in the bust, a lot the lighter lingerie just isn’t going to suit you. That is why the babydoll was practically invented for the busty. A babydoll involves a bra that fits your bust with a light and filmy skirt attached. This is a great choice for women who are a little nervous about their middles. Most babydolls are short, so if you love your legs, this is another good style for you.
Merry Widows for the Tall and Lean
If you are tall and lean, you will find that a merry widow, that is, a corset with separate cups for each breast on top, are a great choice for you. According to Klassyladies.com, the length of the merry widow emphasizes your torso, and the cups give your breasts a little boost. This piece of lingerie, especially when paired with garters and stockings, are a great choice for the more slender body type.
Tap Pants for Pear Shapes
If you are pear-shaped, you will find that a lot of vintage lingerie looks amazing on you. Consider tap pants, which are also called French knickers. This classy lingerie from the thirties is a lot more comfortable for pear shapes than thongs are, and they come in oh-so-touchable silk. Pair them with a matching camisole or a beautiful bra for the perfect nighttime look.
If you are someone who wants to look great for a wonderful night in, lingerie is the way to do it. Take a moment to consider what your lingerie needs are and to find the right set to suit you!
