Lingerie Newbie? How to find pieces that make you feel sexy.
The word “lingerie” can push a lot of us into the uncomfortable zone of sexy, especially if you’re a newbie.
With all the laces, silks, and sheer fabrics it’s a little hard to know where to start, let alone know what will look good on you and what you will be comfortable in. Well, don’t worry with the help of our lovely ladies at Beverly Hills Lingerie we’ve put together some tips for you to follow when you are determining what sexy bits to get.
However, we would like to point out nothing is more of a turn-on than feeling sexy in your own skin. All this other stuff is just a little added bonus.
So without further delay let’s dive in.
This is about you!
The first rule when buying something that makes you feel sexy is just that, it makes YOU feel sexy. This has nothing to do with them. I know it’s so tempting to think of the other person or even just the potential of someone seeing you in these pieces but refrain. I say this because when you are first buying these pieces you may already be pushing your limits so it’s important for you to be comfortable in them first. You need to love how you feel and like what you see. Other opinions shouldn’t be considered after all you’re the one wearing them!
Start where you are comfy.
This is huge when you’re just opening the door to the world of lingerie. While shopping as a newbie think about what you would be comfortable wearing? I know when we think of lingerie we think super sexy, Victoria Secret like things but wearing lingerie for yourself does not have to be like that. Consider maybe buying a bralette first or a pretty bra with lace and wearing it under a sweater. If you’re feeling a little sexier on certain days wear it under a button-up shirt and maybe leave some extra buttons undone so the lace can peak through. The best way to begin feeling comfy and confident in these pieces is to wear them where you’re the only one who knows. Maybe after following this tip for a little you’ll start to find that you’ll become more daring in the types of lingerie you pick.
Pay attention to styles and cuts.
The measurements can get kind of crazy depending on what you are buying and where you are buying it from. What might be helpful is finding a lingerie company like Beverly Hills Lingerie that sticks with the sizes of small, medium, large, to cut out anything too complex. If that doesn’t work go with your regular bra and pantie sizes. As for styles and cuts that you have questions on try to find models that have similar body types to you that are wearing something similar to what you are looking to buy. Purchasing lingerie online can be a little hit and miss so using this rule of thumb when determining style and cut is definitely a solid go too.
Try it on
Nothing will ever beat just trying on the pieces. Whether you are buying in person or online how you feel when you wear a piece of lingerie should be all the excuse you need to actually buy it. You’ll be surprised by how just putting on a piece will almost instantly change the way you carry yourself. You feel sexy so your confidence exudes from you, you walk different, you talk different, and you are different. My favorite part of this is if you are wearing some during your workday or just a day out shopping it’s almost like you have a little secret no one knows about.
Lingerie should be fun and sexy. There shouldn’t be any pressure to look a certain way in any of it. Remember buying pieces should be for you first. If you want to eventually consider others go for it, but just be sure you’re also feeling your absolute best in those pieces as well. Being truly sexy is about being confident, being confident comes from being you!
