Know your lingerie

Aug 2, 2008 by FN's Trixie Reyna

If you haven’t, maybe now’s the time to do that. As FemaleNetwork’s last hurrah for its “Go Sexy” theme, we’re featuring lingerie selections you might like to try. Before you head out to buy new lingerie, however, make sure to keep some tips in mind.

According to lovetoknow.com, the right lingerie is like a great hair cut: it not only looks great but also makes you feel confident and special. Underwear, like clothes, look best on you when you are comfortable with them, so avoid those with awkward-looking underwires, straps, and cups that you can’t help but readjust all the time. As much as possible, get panties and thongs that will not give you VPLs (visible panty lines), as these totally ruin an otherwise perfect outfit.

Now is also the time to branch out a bit from your typical lingerie style. Move beyond your classic bras and panties, and opt for more colorful, playful, and revealing lingerie. These go best with the low-rise jeans and hip-hugging skirts that you’re now fond of wearing. Do not be afraid to wear thongs. Stop thinking that they are uncomfortable and would make you itch; you can avoid this by getting one in a soft, stretchy fabric that would perfectly fit you and will not irritate your skin.

Lovetoknow.com also writes that lingerie is a necessity. Keep in mind that a good bra will not only enhance your silhouette but also offer necessary support. Lingerie is also a must for the bedroom. It is alluring, sexy, and will give both your love life and sex-appeal a boost.

If you’re on the lookout for sexy lingerie, make sure to buy something that looks and feels wonderful. How can you feel sexy when you’re itching from all that stiff lace plastered on your buttocks—or worse, your butt-crack? You have limitless choices out in the market, so take time to pick what’s right for you; never settle for something that only looks pretty but is a torture to wear; or something that looks comfortable but would only elicit a yawn instead of a longing smile from your boyfriend or husband.

And don’t think that you have to spend too much on underwear. Why spend so much on such a small piece of clothing, right? There are a lot of reasonably-priced, good quality lingerie that you can buy.

We found that Debenhams has a wide variety of styles to suit your different lingerie needs and preferences—at affordable prices. They even offer twin packs of really pretty yet very comfortable cotton bras and boy-leg panties. Also be the first to see their latest collection which will hit the stores this September. See for yourself in the gallery below.
