5 Lingerie Options That Will Drop Them In Their Tracks

When you’re starting out in the world of lingerie, knowing what to wear can be more than a little intimidating. But, that’s okay. You’re not alone!

Bras and Panty Sets

Let’s start things off with a more traditional option, but flavored with a little zest. Try finding some bra and panty sets in pastel, muted, matte or primary colors to bring out your natural glow.  Still not sure? You can never go wrong with black! Black is classic and timeless.  If your midsection is an area you feel a little self-conscious about, try to avoid low-rise panties, and reach for the mid-rise, instead.

Corsets

Corsets might be one of the best-known lingerie options, but the key is to keep them classy. Try finding one with a sweetheart neckline, to accentuate your curves. Corsets that have a straight bust area can actually flatten your girls, and nobody wants that!

Body Suits/Shapewear

If you’re a little self-conscious about your midsection, try a sexy body suit. Not only is this style of lingerie perfect for showing off your curves, but shapewear can actually be more flattering, while leaving a bit more to the imagination.

Lace and Layers

When you’re choosing lingerie don’t be afraid to go for those creative pieces. Lingerie should be anything but boring. Don’t be afraid to try more adventurous pieces that are intricately made, or use lace to bring in a bit of texture.

Accessories

Like every great outfit, your lingerie should be paired with the right accessories. And the great thing about these accessories is that they don’t have to be expensive! Try a pair of thigh highs and a garter belt (only about $8-$10 on Amazon) and watch your outfit jump to a whole new level.

*Pro Tip: When you’re looking for the perfect lingerie, stay away from g-strings. They tend to be unflattering on pretty much everyone.
