Indulge in a Naughty Night in With Sexy Lingerie

Saturday, March 3rd, 2012

Whether you are a student or a professional, a man or a woman, everyone deserves a night of pampering once in a while. There are many ways to indulge in a nice night in, shutting out the hustle and bustle of the outside world. Consider coming home from a long day at the office and allowing yourself to have exactly that.

Imagine coming in turning off your phone and pouring yourself a glass of your favourite champagne or wine, dimming the lights, turning on some soft, mellow background music and slipping into a nice hot bubble bath. You might even want to go a bit farther and place some scented candles around your bath and for that extra ambience. Allow yourself to exhale. Let go of all of the day’s stresses and slide yourself into that steamy bath. Sip your beverage, close your eyes and relax as the soft bubbles rise up around your body and the heat loosens all those tight muscles. Listen to the sound of the music playing and let yourself forget about everything else aside from just how wonderful it feels to let it all go. Get your partner involved and invite them into the bath with you.

Once you are enjoying full relaxation, rinse off and step out of your bath. You may want to wrap yourself in a soft comfortable robe or might even prefer to enjoy the remainder of your evening bare. Move into your living area where you have already picked out one of your all time favourite movies. Put it in and relax some more with a favourite snack. You might like popcorn, ice cream or maybe some chocolate. If you’re on a diet of sorts, ignore it this time. You’re sure to get some pleasure in a night of pampering. Remember, you deserve it. This is your naughty night in. Indulge.

While indulging in a naughty night in, you might consider bringing your partner and some sexy lingerie into the picture. Sexy Lingerie can add a lovely touch to your night in, adding a bit spice to your evening. You might try working it in along with some of the steps mentioned above. Pick out your sexiest lingerie. The lingerie that makes you feel your sexy best. You might even ask your partner to do the same, as there is sexy lingerie available for any gender. Share a glass of your wine or champagne and maybe have a close, slow dance together to that soft music you have playing in the background. Then you might consider making your way to the bath together and slowly helping one another out of your sexy lingerie and sliding in for a shared sponge bath. This part can be rather exciting and fun after the excitement of gazing at one another in that sexy lingerie. Then continue to your movie together…or wherever that last step leads you.

There are countless ways to enjoy a naughty or nice evening in. All you have to do is know what you like. Be creative. Give yourself permission to indulge.

Girl’s Best Friend: The Push Up Bra

Friday, March 2nd, 2012

The push up bra can be a girl’s best friend. For many smaller-chested women, a push up bra can create cleavage and enhance the bust line better than an ordinary bra. This type of bra is also great for women with bigger busts to create more lift while helping clothes lay better on the body. A push up bra is great for an important event or a big night out, but they can also be practical for everyday use if you know how to properly wear one during the day. However, if worn with inappropriate clothing, a push up bra can make you look trashy.

A push up bra is great for evening events. Many cocktail dresses are cut lower in the front to enhance cleavage. This can pose a problem for small-chested women since a regular bra will not create a bigger bust size. For evening dresses, showing a lot of cleavage in a push up bra should be balanced by showing less leg. A dress that hits at the knee or lower is more appropriate when showing a lot of skin on top. The reverse is also true. If you plan to wear a short dress that shows off your legs, it is best to save the push up bra for another time.

Large breasts can also find a push up bra useful. Larger breasts may appear saggy, especially as women get older, and have children. A push up bra offers more lift to provide a younger and more streamlined look for a woman. Empire-waist tops and dresses, which have stitching just below the bust, can benefit from a push up bra to keep the bust line in its proper place and help the clothes lay in a more flattering manner on the body.

For an evening look, the same rule should be followed if you are large-chested and are wearing a push up bra. If you are wearing a low-cut top, the bottom of the dress should be knee-length or longer to achieve a classy look.

Many women love the way their chest looks with a push up bra and would like to wear one every day. This can be done with the right daytime clothes and it is important to remember to not show too much skin while accentuating your bust line. Button down shirts are a great look for day that can reveal a slight hint of cleavage while still appearing respectable. The shirt can be buttoned further up or down, depending on how formal you need to dress. An alternative is a cardigan sweater with buttons.

For an informal daytime look, a tee-shirt can still be worn with a push up bra. However, the cut of the shirt is important. A crew neck tee-shirt may look odd with a fuller chest, so choose a flattering neckline such as a V-neck or scoop neckline. Cowl neck sweaters are also great for flaunting your chest in an informal setting. Avoid anything high up on the neck, such as turtlenecks.

Be Naughty With Crotchless Panties and Sexy Underwear

Tuesday, February 28th, 2012

With so many different styles of sexy underwear available, you can have styles you wear when you feel a little sexy, styles for your wildest nights, and several sexy pairs for everything in between. Whether you want something a little sweet or something daring and naughty like crotchless panties, you can find a style that matches your personality.

Women’s underwear should be sexy. Even if you don’t feel like wearing a leather thong and a bustier underneath your work clothes, a pair of underwear with a little frill, lace or detailing can be a sexy secret you wear under your clothes that makes you feel special all day, and night. You can find many styles of sweet and sexy underwear that are comfortable enough to wear for every day and still add some spice to your nighttime dress.

One popular type of sexy underwear that can be worn anytime is lacy boy-shorts. This style is much bigger than bikini underwear, and many women find them more comfortable. They offer full coverage in the front and the back in a snug short-short style that turns sexy with the addition of lace, eyelets, sexy materials and any color of your choice.

Bikini-style underwear is a sexy staple in your closet, but it can be made even sexier by choosing different styles. Instead of a solid material, plain-color bikini panty, choose one with a wide strip of lace at the top and the tiniest piece of material going from front to back that you can find. Thong underwear made this way is popular, too. A wide strip of fur, frills or lace at the top paired with the full view in the back is a sexy style. Your partner will love this type of underwear, and you’ll feel extra sexy wearing it.

Whether you prefer bikini or thong underwear, choosing a sheer material is another way to go a little sexy. You can find sheer panties in barely there colors like peach, pink and tan, or choose daring colors like see-through black or red. A solid band at the top paired with a tiny, sheer strip, especially combined with a matching bra, is a great way to feel sexy and offer up a little tease.

When you feel really bold, there are many other styles to choose from to indulge your naughty side. The sky’s the limit so you can go just as daring and wild as you want. If leather is a favorite, you can find leather bikinis, thongs and other styles with accents like metal studs and rings to add a little kinkiness, if you prefer. A solid leather thong in black, white, red or even pink makes a sexy statement. A leather panty with a lace-up crotch is a spicy choice for when you really feel naughty.

Peek-a-boo panties that have a tiny slit right in front can be found in sweet and lacy styles or in materials like leather. And crotchless panties, the perfect choice when you’re looking for something really wild and sexy, come in all varieties, too. These are daring underwear that will make you feel naughty just putting them on, because you know you won’t have to take them off. Crotchless panties come in styles from tiny lace thongs to leather panties, and are perfect paired with a revealing peek-a-boo or cupless, underwire bra.

Lingerie: Buying a Bra For a Teenage Girl

Saturday, February 25th, 2012

Teenage is the stage when a girl thinks of her impending adulthood and the gradual change in things around her. This is the time when she seriously starts thinking about her body and the lingerie that will fit her best. The right lingerie can not only accentuate one’s figure but also provide a proper shape to the body structure. When it comes to choosing a teenage girl’s first bra, care must be taken to understand her body type so that the bra builds confidence and makes her comfortable with self-image.

Bra shopping, for a teenage girl, is usually carried out by her mother or a motherly figure at home. Nowadays, young girls are so influenced by their peers, that a gang of young teenage girls might also venture out together to buy their first bra. This is a momentous occasion since this marks the onset of maturity and the future complexities associated with it.

There is no perfect time to buy the first bra as such. But ideally it should be given a serious thought and it should be bought just as a teenage girl develops her breast buds.

The first bra to be worn by teenagers is usually known by several names such as starter bras, training bras and the likes. Girls with buds that are small should wear something that will give a proper form and shape to the upper body in the long run. Those with little better developed buds can also try out small adult sized bra. Young girls indulging in physical activities should wear bras that provide comfort and do not put forth a clumsy appearance.

This first bra of a teenage girl should be of the proper size. This has to be specially taken care of since the breast tissue is very tender and delicate while it is taking shape in the body of a young girl. The proper band size and cup size should be taken into consideration.

Some teenage girls have a misconception about the bra being a restrictive piece of garment that is not only uncomfortable but also shape altering. This misconception should be gotten rid of and the right idea about the bra size should be provided to young girls so that they are able to make a decision for themselves. This is certainly preferred as compared to parent’s taking a decision on their behalf. If the need be, the services of sizing professionals, who are there in lingerie shops, should be availed of.

Teen bras are available in many colours to beat the monotony of plain whites and blacks. This is made available since young girls are fond of colours and different patterns. A dash of lace or silk bows is definitely more appreciated by teenage girls. Also materials like cotton and nylon are preferred for teen bras since they lead to fewer allergies and rashes.

Bras that are under-wired are better suited for young girls who are already well endowed and need support. School going teenage girls, in order to remain agile and perform regular activities without being in an awkward situation, usually wear sports bras.

In any case, explaining the importance of wearing a proper sized bra in a comfortable fabric is the responsibility of the parents of the girl or a motherly person.

A Guide to Buying Thongs

Sunday, February 19th, 2012

One of the many benefits of wearing thong underwear in lieu of traditional knickers is the elimination of underwear lines under the tighter, more form fitting fashions of today. Thongs make a strong (and sensual) addition to sheer nightgowns and when paired with a lacy spaghetti strapped camisole, they are a nice alternative to teddies. For ladies with an adventurous attitude and a smoking hot body, thongs can make a bold statement when allowed to peek out over low cut skirts or trousers. One of the best reasons to wear a thong rather than knickers is that thongs add spice and excitement to the wearer’s love life!

Thongs come in a variety of styles and fabrics. Most people are familiar with the G-string. The G-string style has the least coverage of all, but is probably the most recognizable style to those unfamiliar with the many varieties of thongs. Two side strings connect a third string in the back with the front fabric triangle. Therefore, there is nothing covering the back but a tiny string. This is why they are commonly known as ‘butt floss’. They are also the least likely to create a underwear line under clothing.

The T-string thong looks similar to the ‘G’ variety except that it has a wide waistband that forms a ‘T’ in the back. This style has markedly more coverage than the G-string and may be a good choice for a woman who is a bit apprehensive about the skimpy, barely-there, style of most thongs. Unlike the T-string, the V-string has no waistband. However, it is styled so that it has a bit more coverage than the G-string, but less than the T-string. Along with the crotch triangle in the front, the V-string thong has a small fabric triangle in the back that connects the string construction around the waist.

The best style for those who are making their first foray into the world of thong underwear is most likely the Rio. The Rio has wide bands on the side and affords the wearer the most coverage of the behind. Generally, about 1/3 to 2/3 of the rear end is covered in fabric with this style. It is still quite daring, especially for those who have only worn knickers in the past.

The Tanga, offers more coverage than the ‘string’ styles of thong underwear as well. However, whereas the Rio covers more of the behind, the Tanga has more coverage in front. This style has full frontal coverage while showing much of the rear end area. The back is usually high cut and curves up a few inches above the behind.

Many women are worried about their mates mentally criticizing their bodies when they are wearing a thong. Wearing a thong will definitely only garner compliments and excitement in any man, especially if he has only seen his significant other in knickers. The only way to really find out is to try it.

Some thongs, especially when embellished with decorations such as rhinestones and lace, can be quite expensive. If a woman is seriously considering adding some sexy thongs to her lingerie wardrobe, but worried about whether or not she will like it, she should buy only one to try at first. Purchasing a simple cotton thong will not cost too much even if the woman decides to stick with her boring and plain knickers.

After purchasing the first thong, the woman should wear it under her most usual style of clothing for one full day. If it is comfortable the entire day, while engaging in the usual physical activity, it is safe to add additional pieces to the lingerie drawer. When purchasing additional pieces, the woman should consider what style of clothing she most often wears. For instance, if she regularly wears low cut pants and skirts, she should choose low cut thongs so that they will not peek out over the top; unless, of course, she would like to put forth a very adventurous attitude to those who might get a glimpse of her newly purchased under things.

When deciding on the type of fabric for the first thong purchases, the novice woman should keep a couple of things in mind. First, the softest fabric is cotton and it is best for everyday wear. However, special occasions may warrant silk or Lycra with embellishments. Regardless of fabric or style, it would behoove any woman wearing a thong to invest in a professional bikini wax to afford her a clean and polished look.

Be Creative in the Boudoir! Ultimate Lingerie Buying Guide

Sunday, February 19th, 2012

Some fearless women glorify in their bodies, proudly displaying what nature has given them. It’s not what you wear, but the attitude in which you wear it. Many ladies are discovering the many ways to play up those dangerous curves. Don’t be afraid to show off that gorgeous tan with a bright-colored string bikini that can be worn according to your particular body shape. Tie those little pieces of fabric really high up on the hip to give the appearance of a longer leg, or down low if you have height issues. Try naughty knickers with a ‘peek-a-boo’ heart, a Brazilian or Boy shorts with a pair of sexy Hold Ups and heels. There is nothing like the feeling one can experience whilst secretly wearing a pair of suspenders holding up a pair of classic silky stockings underneath an outfit. The choices of ladies lingerie can be worn in the boudoir are endless. There is no rule for your tastes, just that you wear these outfits with confidence and a light heart.

However, for those that are a tad timid or less bold, there is no reason not to have the same amount of well-deserved fun. A soft and fragile Baby doll outfit may just be what’s on the menu for tonight. More is sometimes less with these lady-like creations. The lightly tied, delicate strings can be adjusted to fit as high or as low as you feel comfortable, and will definitely leave him wanting more. Ladies thrill their mates, leaving him dazed and addled with thigh-high silk stockings, while wearing figure-flattering, heavenly bodies of cloth. A demure Baby doll nightdress does not scream for attention, they simply get it.

Many ladies do not understand the importance of wearing the right kind of supportive bra. They wear it too tight, or too big. They do not realize that they do not have to sacrifice comfort for beauty, not to mention the health effects that a “too tight” bra can have on the spine. There are a lot of reasons to throw that tired bra away. It has served the purpose of barely holding up the girls, but it has been worn to death. Why not pamper yourself with something more eye appealing and will fit better? Remember those suspenders and stockings that were mentioned before? Complete a dazzling effect with a matching bra. There are many choices and colours, from water to gel bras; uplifting and embroidered lace. The right, fitted bra can actually be beautifully slimming too!

Ladies should not be the only ones that have all the fun! Men deserve to feel sexy too, and are almost as concerned about looking nice as women are, and their ladies are glad to have choices for them too. No more are they settling for the conventional, traditional knickers. There are more creative choices than ever for guys that still like to play. Whether he is partial to boxers, briefs or hipsters, they are available for both the young and old alike. They do not have to sacrifice support and comfort for an up-to-date, masculine look. They can have very thin, sheer or cotton trunks, midi’s and briefs, depending on how they like to wear their jeans or what they want to sleep in while in their very own boudoir. Their only requirement should be that they fit well, be stretchable and go with the flow of a man’s movement.

The main thing is to love what you’re in. Do not restrict or put limits on yourself. Putting yourself in a one-dimensional box is an unnecessary inhibition. Be self-aware and confident enough to have fun with the potential you have over the opposite sex. Some go their whole life never giving themselves the opportunity to be playful and naughty. They never recognize their playful side by wearing something that makes them feel pretty and sexy. So be cheeky! Get in that boudoir and quit neglecting yourself.

Types of Bras: Revealing the Mystery

Saturday, April 17th, 2010
girl

You can’t examine bra types without first asking–underwire or soft cup? The fact is, if you’re wearing a cup size that’s B or higher and you’re looking for solid support, you probably want an underwire bra. Soft cups are a great option for women who cannot wear underwire bras (for reasons such as recent breast surgery, breastfeeding or for young women whose breasts are just developing), but most women require a little more support and shape to their bust. Underwire bras can come in a multitude of different styles, as the wiring under the cups allows more support with less fabric.

Another category to decide on right away is padded vs. unpadded. It’s not necessarily true that padded bras are only for smaller busted women, although push-up bras fall into this category. Besides providing some enhancement to your figure, padded bras can be padded for comfort, for a more pleasingly round shape or for a little lift to a bust line that has begun to droop. Naturally, there are bras with more padding, and those can help a woman who wants a little more size to help fill out her tops. Some padded bras come with removable pads so that the degree of lift and enhancement can be altered to suit your mood and outfit.

Free U.S. Shipping at Henry & June with purchase of $25 or more. Exp 9/30/08. May not combine.

If your bra cup is larger than a D, a good everyday choice for you is a full-cup bra. This style of bra provides complete coverage for the bust, allowing for even more support. This style of bra is great for a woman with a larger bust that requires more coverage for pleasing shape and lift. While the phrase ‘full-cup’ might conjure up images of your mother’s sturdy, plain white bra, full-cup bras come in a whole host of colors and fabrics, making them a very attractive choice inside and out of your shirt.

When wearing a v-neck shirt, sometimes it’s difficult to keep your bra from showing above the neckline. This is where a plunge bra comes in handy. Similar to the design of a v-neck blouse, a plunge bra has a very deep separation between the cups, allowing for visible cleavage. They also provide a little more lift and separation, which can give the illusion of larger breasts, making them a good choice for any woman looking to enhance her assets.

A demi or half cup bra is typically cut slightly above the nipple line and provides less coverage, but a pleasing lift. A lot of demi-cup bras have smaller underwires and are designed with an inward tilt to provide cleavage enhancement. These bras are typically cut straight across the breasts and have a wider center portion to allow for good support. This is a great bra for a petite woman who frequently has problems with the placement and size of a typical underwire bra or for women who don’t need as much support as a full cup.

The Clasp

A balconette bra provides more coverage than a demi or half cup bra, covering more than half of the breast. It differs from the half-cup in the center portion, which is typically cut in a more v-shaped pattern and not straight across the bust. This provides more visible cleavage, which is a good look under dipped necklines.

A specialized kind of bra that most new mothers need for as long as they nurse their child is a drop-cup or nursing bra. This bra has hooks at the top of each cup, near the straps, that allow the cup to be dropped down under the breast so the mother can discreetly breastfeed her child. While these bras used to be rather unattractive and come in white or off white only, they’re now available in quite a wide range of fabrics and styles.

As you can see, it’s impossible to have just one style of bra with different outfits, you’ll want to select a different bra that provides the best look under your top. It’s a good idea to have a variety of styles of bras so that you can look your best underneath any type of shirt or blouse.
