Because looking sexy is a privilege, but being sexy is a responsibility.
Once upon a time I was in a relationship with a partner who had an eye for sexy underwear. And by "had an eye" I mean he was always looking at other women in their lingerie. Whether it was in magazines, movies or through my sister's bedroom window, as I eventually discovered, it was his lust for lingerie that drove a wedge between us. There is nothing wrong with wanting to look and feel good for your partner. You shouldn't have to destroy your personal limits to do it, that's all I'm trying to say. Ugh, is this thing on?
Look, I don't mean to get on a soap box here, but modern lingerie is nothing like what your mother and grandmother wore. Their seductive clothes were purely functional and were only sexy to viewers because of what they represented. Vintage lingerie designs are now only appreciated as a novelty, with stiff seams, itchy materials, pointy bras, unnecessary restrictions and complex harness systems. These days, these things are the mark of bad fetish porn, not the clothes you wear to turn on a voyeuristic partner. If I had known all this before my last relationship, I wouldn't have tried on the wrong outfit and made a fool of myself in front of my ex, causing his unfulfilled desire for more.
Cheating lovers have no excuse because bad lingerie exists, don't get me wrong. It's just that contemporary options are stylish, sexy and, most importantly, 100 times more comfortable than old-school ensembles (on a bad day). Once made in one piece held together by a series of straps, snaps and bulky buttons, the lingerie of yesteryear can no longer serve as a valid comparison. And since I was obviously the last to discover this little secret, my love life came to an abrupt halt around my 28th birthday. In my thirties, it took a complete dive, from which I am still recovering today.
It didn't help that my ass started looking like cottage cheese and my breasts were clinically depressed. For a long time, these unappealing physical attributes made me think that wearing lingerie was the last thing on earth, especially if the main goal was to keep my partner's attention on me (and not on my sister). I eventually learned that the exact opposite was true. Did you know that it's not the lingerie that makes you sexy? It's you that makes the lingerie look good. In other words, confidence is all you need to wear, but good lingerie only enhances what is already there.
C’est pourquoi choisir la culotte ou les bas parfaits et sélectionner le nuisette idéal qui va avec est une étape importante pour devenir une femme épanouie avec une vie sexuelle bien remplie. Il n’y a aucune honte à porter des sous-vêtements sexy et séduisants sous vos vêtements modestes, surtout si vous avez un partenaire qui vous attend à la maison. Il s’avère que la beauté est dans l’?il de celui qui regarde, mais vous ne pouvez pas laisser l’opinion de quelqu’un d’autre définir votre valeur. Avoir l’air sexy est un privilège, mais être sexy est une responsabilité. Nous nous devons tous de nous déguiser de temps en temps pour nous sentir jeunes, sexy et féminines ; alors n’en déplaise aux détracteurs, commencez à chercher ce qui vous fera battre le c?ur de votre partenaire.
What is lingerie for women?
Lingerie is therefore a very broad term used to describe a specialized category of women's clothing. It generally includes sexy and revealing items such as bras, panties, tights, garters and dresses, with comfort and lightness being the two main elements that distinguish it from traditional undergarments. Today's hottest options are overtly motivated by the intention or implied intention that the item be removed in a fit of lust by a lover. As a result, most pieces are designed to be both fashionable and functional, although the degree of the latter often varies greatly depending on several minute factors.
The pin-up photos of yesteryear showed women in what we now consider vintage lingerie: bras that swelled the breasts, underwear that supported the belly, stockings that smoothed the skin, fabrics that seduced the partner and revealed just enough to leave room for the imagination. These outfits drove the boys crazy, and the trick has been going on since the dawn of time. Long before vintage get-ups and controversial Coca-Cola commercials, men and women all over the world had fun playing with fabrics and silhouettes to capture the imagination, spark passion and boost confidence. So even if you're not feeling good about yourself yet, well-fitting lingerie has the power to change your mind.
Unfortunately, knowing my history and the definition of lingerie is not enough to get you where you want to go. Manufacturers partner with extremely talented marketers to get money out of you. Just because the model looks good in the ad doesn't mean you will too. It's a tough pill to swallow, but if you can get it down, you'll be able to find what you're looking for without being embarrassed, self-conscious or hurt. Yes, I did say "hurt," because there are over 2 million sex-related accidents every year in the United States alone, and some of them are probably due to the patient not taking the time to answer those important questions about themselves before diving headfirst into the sea of sex:
- What types of sex acts do I most enjoy performing or receiving?
- Do I need my bed clothes to be tailored in a particular way to support my sexual fantasies?
- Is my partner comfortable with what I intend to do and/or wear?
- Does my love life require any special tools or sex toys that do not work with certain types of lingerie?
- How many different chemicals and/or materials do I normally come in contact with during sex or masturbation?
- Are there any skin sensitivities or allergies to be aware of?
- Which materials are best for my skin type or my partner's skin type?
- Do my ideal lingerie materials work well with my preferred type(s) of personal lubricant?
- Can I wash/maintain this product in a way that promotes my health and well-being?
- Do I need something that stretches or adjusts in size?
- Will I be the only one wearing the lingerie I'm about to buy?
- How often does my partner's weight fluctuate?
- Does the fabric stretch or shrink when removed, washed or otherwise?
- How should I feel when I wear this lingerie?
- Do I want to feel powerful and authoritative like a dominant or delicate and powerless like a submissive?
- Which body part should I highlight and accentuate for my partner?
- What part of the body (if any) should I strive to hide or obscure?
- De quel budget est-ce que je dispose pour créer un look complet avec de la lingerie sexy et haut de gamme ?
- Is my spending limit sufficient for cleaning, general maintenance and accessories?
- Will I be able to find or purchase replacement parts if necessary?
- Do I know of any special offers, discounts or coupon codes on sexy and seductive clothing items?
- What do I already have at home that can be used to create an attractive undergarment?
You'll never be able to select the right thing if you don't know what it is or what you should look for (and avoid). I could give you suggestions all day, but we're not going anywhere until you know yourself a little better than the marketers. By the way, luxury lingerie is always a great gift for a lover. In fact, there are several good reasons why women (and sometimes even men) wear these sexy items. I'll spare you a long essay and give you Cliff's notes for now. You can thank me later for saving you time and money.
Why wear sexy lingerie?
Aside from the fact that they help boost your confidence and have the ability to make a partner swoon at their touch, most high-end, high-quality sex wear can benefit you and/or your partner(s) in a number of ways, including, but not always, the following:
- Increased sexual arousal
Il y a très peu de choses plus sexy qu’un partenaire qui se promène dans de la lingerie dans laquelle il se sent en confiance. Ce partenaire peut être vous, ou la personne avec laquelle vous essayez de faire des expériences perverses. Quoi qu’il en soit, les bons articles de séduction peuvent augmenter l’excitation entre les amoureux, surtout si la lingerie est lentement dévoilée par sections. Le strip-poker, les massages sensuels et les jeux de couple deviennent beaucoup plus agréables lorsqu’il y a quelque chose de coquin caché sous la surface. Parfois, il suffit d’une paire de bas de soie pour qu’un amant excité crève le plafond.
- More magical mysteries
After a while, it can be difficult to surprise your partner in the bedroom. Contemporary society and mainstream media have begun to desensitize our physical, mental and emotional perspectives. Bringing these mysterious moments to life is a great way to spark passion in an otherwise dull relationship, and it can set a precedent in a new union that revolves around sexual attraction. Well-fitting lingerie is made in a special way: it brings out the features you like best while hiding the ones you hate. It supports, tightens, shapes and molds. But most importantly, it adds a little intrigue where there was none before, because we all need a little kick in the ass from time to time.
- Improved role-playing
Do you have a sexual fantasy that you are dying to try? Do you have a celebrity or porn star in mind that you want to emulate for your partner or fuck for yourself? Role-playing is one of the most popular activities for modern couples, and it's easy to see why. But none of this would be possible without some lingerie pieces. Naughty nurses, sexy teachers, exciting aliens - it doesn't have to be "lingerie," but it's certainly welcome in most rooms. Break out your or your partner's shell and step out into the great unknown as you experience the orgasms inspired by the right nightwear (even if it means dressing like Marilyn Monroe or Betty Boop).
I'm sure there are 486 other benefits to wearing lingerie, but I can't think of them right now because I'm too busy imagining myself in a little see-through outfit my partner gave me as a birthday present (hint, hint). I'm a total fan of sartorial seduction, no matter what the feminists say is right, wrong or degrading. I've never felt demeaned when I picked up my partner's jaw, and I've never felt demeaned when my clothes have been ripped off my body. I think women have it all wrong, to be honest. After all, some men look better in these things than we do. It must serve a purpose.
At this point, we can probably all agree that owning a piece of lingerie isn't necessarily a bad idea that says "I don't look good enough naked". Someone somewhere had a bad experience once and now we all have to pay for it. I think that's bullshit; and I also think that all you need is some advice on how to prevent that same situation from happening to you. Attractive clothing is a gift from God, but only if you use it well and chase the good stuff like a hound on a rabbit trail. (I apologize for the terrible analogy. My parents were from the South and I get a disability check every month for that).
Top 5 ways to know if that lingerie is worth it or not
There are some classic lingerie pieces that will probably never go out of style, but that doesn't mean they are all made the same. No two items are the same, even if they are made by the same manufacturer. To find the right orgasm-inspiring outfit for you, be sure to check the following features of each option you're considering:
- The size
Just like choosing a new shirt or pair of pants, choosing the right lingerie involves using a general size range to find the perfect fit. However, most seductive clothing is sized differently than outerwear. For example, a size 10 jean may be the equivalent of a size 4/6, and some brands offer smaller or larger sizes depending on their target audience. Know your average clothing size and try a few options before you get discouraged with your body. Keep in mind that there are also many one-size-fits-all styles available.
- The materials
The clothes a woman wears say a lot about her, and the items tucked under your dress are no exception. The lucky lover who gets to unveil those sexy panties wants to feel soft, smooth and silky materials. On your end, you want it to be comfortable and hypoallergenic. Avoid materials that don't breathe well, especially if you plan to wear the set for several hours. Leather and lace have their place, but stay cooler and more feisty in lingerie made of cotton, silk, satin, nylon or a proprietary polyblend fabric. And don't be afraid to mix materials, because it's not only sexy, it's smart.
- The characteristics
Yes, even lingerie has features. Depending on the type of lingerie you wear, this flirty garment on your butt may have specialized clasps, adjustable straps, safety buttons or other features that increase its sex appeal and functionality. Many modern lingerie manufacturers try to create products that are fun and easy to wear, but complicated items still exist and are even popular with some people. Make sure the features of the products you choose match your ideal experience. Garter belts, push-up bras, and silk stockings may make you look like a million bucks, but they will be useless if you can't handle the moving parts due to their complexity.
- The adjustment
Have you ever bought a pair of jeans that were your exact size, only to discover that they didn't fit at all? In a fit of depressed rage and body shame, we tend to think that one manufacturer has a monopoly on clothing sizes. As easy as that may be for us, that's just not how it works. The size and features of the garment you choose should work together to create a well-fitting silhouette that flatters your body and builds your self-esteem. If that means going up or down a few sizes, so be it. You're an exclusive model with no replicas, so your lingerie must have the same qualities (or at least it should).
- The functionality
I find that good bed clothes are useful in almost any sensual situation. However, this is only possible if the lingerie works as it should. For example, I really like to use crotchless panties, especially when I know there is going to be penetration with a sex toy or my partner's penis. I prefer cutout bras when nipple clamps are used and my sexy dresses work wonders for romantic evenings when I want to invite my lover to dinner. It's all about creating and maintaining the perfect marriage between fashion and function. Lingerie worth its salt has to offer all this and more.
The Big Ten: My top sexy lingerie essentials
All lingerie purchases are subject to the preferences of the wearer and/or their partner, I understand that. However, there are a few key pieces that should always be part of any serious seducer's toolkit. I sincerely hope that the following information will help you decide which pieces to choose or pass up on your next shopping trip, as every woman has the right to feel beautiful and desired. Keep in mind, however, that these suggestions are not in order of importance or preference:
-
The Teddy of the hook
Sometimes called a "cami-knicker", the teddy is a very light undergarment that covers the torso and accentuates the curves of your body. Similar in style to a swimsuit or bodysuit, the teddy is usually made of a looser, sheer fabric that reveals more of your figure. Although usually cut at the shoulders, some feature tight or flowing sleeves to make them more attractive and versatile.
BEST TEDDY MATERIALS AND FEATURES: Opt for cotton, silk, nylon or polyester, and look for garments with elastic bands and/or zippers where you need them most.
MY SUGGESTION: The DreamGirl Gold Chain Teddy - a supremely glittery and flattering choice for any body type or skin tone, plus it's sex toy friendly and very easy to care for.
-
The Dirty Dress
The tight, enticing little dress is a wardrobe staple for almost every erotic woman in bed. Multifunctional and always fashionable, the only thing that goes out of style on a lingerie dress is the fabric pattern, and even then, you can wear it as a well-fitted vintage piece if you want. Dresses lift your butt, show off the soft curves of your body, boost your breasts, and offer an unobstructed view of your lover's pleasure box or your favorite sex toy. Tighten it up or let it flow, the important thing is to wear one that will make your partner say "Oh!"
BEST DRESS MATERIALS AND FEATURES: Opt for dresses made of stretchy, breathable materials that have features such as cutouts, pleats, clasps and breast enhancement bands or underwires.
MY SUGGESTION: The Coquette babydoll set in purple mesh and metallic lace - a dynamic panty/dress combo that evokes the goddess Aphrodite and flatters your figure while cleverly hiding your flaws.
-
The silk stocking
Contrary to its suggestive name, silk stockings are not always made of silk. Nowadays, you'll find more nylon stockings than anything else. Favored for their durability and anti-warping properties, nylon stockings can be worn with almost any type of lingerie and look great under regular clothes. There are ankle, knee, thigh and waist high stockings available today, and the choice is yours as long as you know your shoe size and waist size (for pull-on versions). Fun fact: Silk stockings are so universally loved and prized for their sophisticated addition to any style that they are often used as inspiration for the names of upscale communities in historic cities.
BEST MATERIAL AND FEATURES OF TIGHTS: While silk is an amazing material to have on your legs, nylon tights generally last longer and are more affordable to replace. Look for control tops, bow support and color coordination to find the best option.
MY SUGGESTION: Leg Avenue Crotchless Floral Lace Garter Tights - a sweet, sultry mix of class and perversion, with zero crotch but plenty of room for versatility in play. It also has a built-in garter, so you can skip the straps and buckles (if you want) and get right down to business.
-
The suspender and belt combo
Classic, sophisticated and sexy are the first three words that come to mind when I think of suspenders and belts. The garter/belt combination is a seductive garment that is both delicate and powerful, using narrow elastic bands to secure a form-fitting belt over a thigh-high silk stocking. The garter belt is secured with various types of clips just above the knee to prevent the stocking from slipping, resulting in a particularly attractive silhouette. As one of the more intricate types of lingerie, these garter belts may require a partner's help to put them on and take them off, but hey...it can be pretty sexy if you think about it.
MATERIALS AND FEATURES OF THE BEST Garters: The garter itself can be made of any material, but the garter belt should be adjustable or stretchable and the clasps on the stocking bands should be easy to use and secure enough for you to move around without difficulty or discomfort.
MY SUGGESTION: The Seven 'til Midnight satin and mesh garter belt set - a sexy and sophisticated little item, available in black or red, that features a quaint polka dot pattern on sheer stockings held in place by a comfortable garter belt with easy-to-use safety clasps on either side.
-
The pretty panties
Underneath every nightie suit, dirty dress or garter belt is a perfect pair of panties. And it can't be an ordinary, run-of-the-mill, "I got my period nine times with these" panty. Lingerie panties have to be super special: silky, smooth, sexy, seductive and, most importantly, safe. Good panties always fit without causing skin irritation around the crotch, even if you wear them for a long time. After all, who knows how long the foreplay will last tonight? Isn't it better to be prepared with underwear that makes a statement (and not "It's laundry day" either).
BEST BRIEFING MATERIALS AND FEATURES: In general, try to choose cotton or silk briefs and look for versatile options that give you freedom with your favorite partner(s) and sex toys.
MY SUGGESTION: The Coquette Darque Stimulating Chain Panty - a stylish black panty that gives you a series of clitoral massages and temperature games while you wait for your lover's touch. It is also perfect under other lingerie pieces.
-
The corset and/or the cute bustier
A bustier, or corset, is an attractive form of form-fitting clothing designed specifically for women. Traditionally worn as complex lingerie, contemporary corsets can be much easier to put on and take off. Their main purpose is to lift the breasts by manually and strategically tightening the torso with a series of adjustable straps, clasps or buttons (which also shape and slim the waist, by the way). If you're lucky, you might even be able to find one with garter belts built into the design, but don't believe me.
BEST CORSET/BUSTIER MATERIALS AND FEATURES: I prefer these bad boys to be made of the same materials as my panties, although I've been known to play with latex and rubber if the clasps are secure enough and the construction durable.
MY SUGGESTION: The Lovehoney Midnight Soiree Blue Floral Basque Set - a sexy selection including corset, panties, garter belts and a built-in necklace all in one, with a color scheme that flatters the skin and curves on a sensual design.
-
Bodystocking The Kitchen
Designed to cover your entire body with a thin, sheer layer of luxurious fabric, body stockings tease the senses with a blend of revelation and discretion. Can be worn under almost any everyday garment, a body stocking can suffice where a garter belt or corset fails. Best of all, they are usually designed to be crotchless so you can explore your desires without having to remove the entire costume. In some cases, the breasts are even cut out for greater versatility with partners and sex toys.
BEST BODYSTOCK MATERIALS AND FEATURES: Always choose a product that is extremely stretchy and made of breathable materials, and choose bodysuits with plenty of room for your partner's sexual advances because they are difficult to put back on once you take them off.
MY SUGGESTION: The Lovehoney Crotchless All-in-One Floral Lace Bodystocking - a body-friendly option that looks and feels great on everyone, no matter who you are, and pairs well with any panties, shoes or accessories you already own.
I said I had 10 different pieces of lingerie to discuss, but the seven items mentioned above are pretty much all you need to have a good time. However, depending on your sexual appetites, kinks, fetishes, and performance preferences, the following three items may or may not be necessary before you leave. Also, I do not have product suggestions for these. I will, however, provide some recommendations on the basics. You are welcome to do so.
-
-
The hot shoe with high heel
-
This accessory is sometimes the numero uno of lingerie lovers, especially since it lengthens the leg, gives a boost to the buttocks and increases the allure of the outfit. Look for stilettos and/or boots (if you can hang). As a general rule, the higher the heel, the more beautiful you look. Oh yeah, and don't be afraid of thigh-high boots either. They are sexy as hell with almost anything, no matter who you are.
-
-
The beautiful body jewels
-
Nothing expresses self-confidence and love for your body better than well-placed body jewelry. Whether you're dressing your breasts, your pussy, your belly button or your tongue, a good piece of hypoallergenic body jewelry can be the sparkling cherry on top of an already smoking hot ensemble. Best of all, you don't have to commit to piercing your clit. Today's market is full of clip-on rings and studs that you can experiment with temporarily.
-
-
The crazy suit
-
The naughty nurse, the sexy schoolteacher and the wild wet witch walked into a swingers bar. Okay, this sounds like the beginning of a bad joke, but it's actually something you can recreate in the comfort of your own home if you have the right lingerie costume in your closet. Most of the time, sexy outfits like this come with all the elements you need to create a complete look right away, but make sure that's the case with the options you like, because that's not always how it goes, unfortunately.
The final game
I don't know how many times I've told someone, but owning at least one piece of sexy lingerie should be a rite of passage for every woman on the planet. At no point should you feel embarrassed to wear something made specifically for your body. Well-made luxury lingerie is flattering to the female form, so much so that men often find themselves trying it on. Whatever your story or secret, one thing is certain: attractive clothing will never go out of style, even if the style changes dramatically from one generation to the next. Let's be glad it does, because my grandmother's lingerie was a sad, sad excuse for sexy underwear. What's important today, above all else, is to experience comfort, fashion and functionality at the same time, every time. And as long as you feel good about yourself when you wear it, nothing else should matter.
Tiffany. I'm Tiffany. I'm glad you're here with me on this crazy adventure.
