How to choose lingerie for your body type?
For both men and women, there is always a piece of clothing in our closet that makes us feel amazing; whether it is a suit or a pretty dress, this outfit makes us feel powerful. This is the feeling that every woman should have when wearing lingerie; feeling invincible. All women have different bodies, so all women have different needs when it comes to dressing. Here are some tips on how to shop for lingerie for your body type: Rule number one, focus on your best assets, but above all, be confident!
Big bust
Having a bigger bust doesn't mean feeling sexy is easier. Support is key. Go for demi bras that will hug and support your curves. High-waisted panties will also help you feel sexy.Small bust
Small busts don't need as much support but what women with smaller busts encounter are empty bras and straps that fall down. I suggest a racerback bralette.Low-cut
Grab a corset. “There’s nothing better to give girls that extra lift. You can also draw attention to the area by experimenting with different colors. Black is a good contrast, if you have fair skin, while white is a good contrast if you’re more tan. No matter your skin tone, her heart will stop if you pull out something red.”
For the legs
High heels and high panties. Look for pantyhose and a garter belt. If you have slightly wider shoulders compared to the rest of your body, a babydoll is a must, it will be flattering for your shoulders and the flared shape will highlight your buttocks.
Hourglass shape
The perfect style for hourglass shapes is anything that will accentuate your waist. Try a set with a garter belt. Not only are they super smart for occasions when you're wearing pantyhose, but they'll also accentuate your waist.
Pear shaped
Pear shaped women should look for clothing styles that show off the curves of their body and play up the thighs. Choose outfits that are tight around the waist, this will accentuate your bust and hips which will draw attention to your waist and give you a pin-up look. Once you have determined your body type, the next step is to explore the different types of lingerie that are made for you. The last most important thing, ladies; choose a set that makes you feel sexy. If you don't feel beautiful, it will show in your attitude.Choosing the right size
Some women have already mastered the art of knowing the right bra size without trying it on, but others have more difficulty. On the other hand, your bust size will never be the same especially if you lose or gain weight. It is therefore very better to try before you buy. For pregnant women, ladies never take tight bras, because throughout your pregnancy you gain weight so you will end up feeling too tight in them.Type of support
Once you know your bra size, you now have to choose the type; push up, bralette, corset, adhesive, etc. For push ups, it is ideal if you have an average sized bust because it will enhance your curves, but always try your push up with a t-shirt before buying it so that your chest does not appear too big. For some time now, the type of bra that is all the rage are the adhesives that are strapless and open at the back. It is ideal to wear with a dress or an open back top, but, it is only recommended for women who have a small or medium bust.The color
“It is not a good idea to choose white colored lingerie, because no matter how careful and clean you are, they lose their color and become a little grayish after several washes. Give preference to warmer colors like pink, red, timeless black, as well as any other color you like. They can be two colors at the same time, like a red bra with black laces. It is also a great idea to go for printed bras, if they certainly match your outfits.”
Pay special attention to the details of the bra you choose. Those with sophisticated embroidery, or any other embellishment are definitely prettier.A matching set
To achieve a successful look, never buy a set that doesn't "fit". It's best to buy the set, but if the bra comes without panties, take the time to choose one that matches the top. Pay attention to every detail and make the right choice, no matter what occasion you buy the set for.The best texture
Even though the best texture is often much more expensive, never save on your lingerie. They are what touches your body and you should think about the good quality of lingerie that will let your body breathe. Never take synthetics for everyday use. Opt for satin or silk; cotton works too, but it wears out quickly.Always try it first
Always try lingerie on with clothes to see how they look. Some of us just wear the bra and see how it looks on our naked body however, we forget that this garment is not going to be worn by itself, if not in your bedroom at night. You are going to wear it under clothes, so at least check if it works with the top you are currently wearing.
Gentlemen, don't worry, I haven't forgotten you. While women look for the right lingerie for their body shape and love to try different colors and textures, men only look at comfort.Here are the different types of men's underwear:
Briefs
Briefs are perfect for those who need support and to keep everything in one place. They are perfect for sports and everyday activities.Low-rise briefs
Low rise briefs are almost the same as regular briefs, but sit a little lower in the waist so they provide just enough coverage to cover everything, but not more. Great to wear with regular shorts, athletic shorts or low rise jeans.Boxers
Boxers are loose-fitting underwear without support, but more breathable than any other underwear. Many boxers have an opening in the front.Short underpants
Boxer shorts come in a variety of styles, from the underwear you associate with your grandpa to more trendy, fitted cuts. They're perfect for everyday wear, or for casual sports. Wear more relaxed cuts, like those from J. Crew, for maximum leg comfort. They're good for wearing with pants, pajamas, and shorts.
"Trunks"
Trunks are the hybrid between briefs and boxers, in other words they are longer briefs. Perfect for sports and everyday wear. So gentlemen, if you want to buy sexy lingerie for your partner, you are on the right track, keep it up! I can understand that this may seem complicated, but read on to learn how to buy the perfect lingerie for your partner.What she wants and what you want
When shopping for lingerie, you want to choose something that will make her feel sexy and comfortable at the same time. Maybe it's a lace bustier, a floral print thong, or even a black satin bra, it's definitely something that will please her, but you're definitely allowed to choose something that will turn you on as well. However, this is about her. Choose something she already loves, if her favorite underwear is a simple black thong, go for the matching set, but more upscale and explore by buying her a new style.Budget
“One more thing: When it comes to budget, think quality over quantity. If you have less than $50 to spend, that’s totally fine. Just buy a really nice pair of panties, rather than opting for a poorly made bra and panties with a garter belt and stockings that are guaranteed to fall apart in the wash (although lingerie is usually hand washed) and feel uncomfortable to wear.”
What to avoid
When shopping for lingerie, keep the same rules as you do for jewelry, keep it classy. Unless your partner prefers cotton, buy her a sexier, more chic fabric like, again, lace or satin. Don't give her multi-packs, that's a lazy gift, take your time to find her something she'll love and feel sexy in.Finally, your sexiness is not calculated by the amount of lace you wear, the skin you reveal or the padding you flaunt, the ultimate beauty of a woman is derived from the three Cs - confidence, comfort and the courage to be comfortable with yourself. So, when choosing the right lingerie for you, be truly honest with yourself by understanding what your body feels most comfortable in.
