Sexy lingerie is something that every women loves to wear. Whether it is for herself or the love of her life,  sexy lingerie can say a million words in one picture. It takes a great designer to know what women want in their sexy lingerie, knowing is not enough though,  they have to put their ideas into the needle and thread and create an award winning product. We feel that the following designers have achieved this and hope that they continue to produce sexy lingerie for many years to come. (more…)

French lingerie all under one roof comes to us in a website called “Luxury French Lingerie.”  Sometimes when I am not in the mood for surfing the net or trailing from store to store then I love to have everything in one place so I can shop at my own pace. Luxury French Lingerie has  designer’s collection on one website that makes for easy shopping.  They also have a special section to guide men on what to buy for their wives,  gift vouchers are available as it is luxury wrapping.  I think this is one website to accidentally leave open if you want a nice Christmas present!

I love this collection displayed on their website. The Rosa Kasiopea bra, briefs, suspender belt, choker and thongs. Ideal for everyday wear or even on your wedding day.

When women get together we discuss fine lingerie, when men get together they discuss  lingerie models.  I can join in a discussion with the men but only to  pay homage to the veterans of fine lingerie modelling of which my favourite is Eva Herzigova.  The woman known for taking the push up bra into the 20th century.

Perhaps it was because when she made it to the big time I was just entering that stage of starting to wear bra’s.  I so desperately wanted to wear the fine lingerie she was advertising instead of my plain dull training bra.  For me she will always be one of the first  models that took fine lingerie into to a new dimension.

Ladies lingerie is getting better by the day,  we are absolutely chuffed to find out that Victoria’s Secret is to open a flagship store in the UK.    Shopping online at Victoria’s secret is fine but to actually have the product in front of you is even better.

Victoria’s Secret  keeps bringing out amazing ladies lingerie every year but one of my favorite’s  is the  Ultimate lift bra selection.  Their miraculous push up bra gives you an extra two cup sizes but with a natural shape so you don’t get people asking you if you have had a boob job!.

The bra comes in many colours and in Satin or lace.  For a cool $48 it is well worth the money.  Well done Victoria’s secret for bringing your collection of ladies lingerie to the Uk. This is going to be serious competition for La Senza and La Magia, which I am more than looking forward to.

Romantic lingerie accounts for about 50% of lingerie purchases both in high street stores and on the internet. Both men and women buy romantic lingerie however there is a fine line between romantic lingerie and lingerie that screams lust. There are some very simple ways to distinguish the two and they are  style, colour and material.

Looking at style first, then the best tip to help you when you are looking for romantic lingerie is at the same time look for elegant lingerie. Elegant lingerie means no holes where they are not needed, no chains, no studs and no zips. All these styles are  for  racy, lustful  lingerie. I am sure you know this already but just to clarify as well. No teddy  bears or large flowers either, these are known as comfort pyjamas and suit a ten-year old child more. Just remember elegant lingerie means simple.

Colour is a very important thing to remember as it is  known to send a message to our brains and have an effect on our moods and reactions.  Romantic lingerie should be  various tones of red, pink, purple or  blue.  Of course the most romantic colour is red,  think of 12 red roses, love hearts  and valentines day. Two colours definitely not suited to romantic lingerie is green and greys. Green signifies mothering, grey is dull and provokes no reaction at all.

Material is perhaps the biggest decider.  PVC, leather, cotton are all a definite no no  when it comes to Elegant lingerie. Silk however screams romance  and it is definitely a winner. If you like lace then more importantly apply the first two rules of style and colour first.

I hope these top tips help you, the market on romantic lingerie is so big that you can have a field day choosing. Just be sure to follow the rules above and you will find yourself looking elegant and romantic for the special man in your life.
