Simone Perele Eliza Black Underwired Triangle Bra

Unique Details:

This is a truly exquisite black underwired triangle bra in transparent black tulle highlighted with a classic and delicate soft blue floral embroidery on the bra cup. The deeply plunging neckline is met with a small blue bow at the centre and thin double straps to create a delicate yet elegant bra.

Personal Opinion:

This Simone Pérèle triangle bra is simply beautiful! It has the modernity of a triangle bra with the support of an underwire whilst having double rouleau straps. The simplicity in the embroidery on the sheer black cups is what makes this bra stand out from the rest, and the bound bra cup edge and double straps add elegance and charm.

This definitive Simone Perele bra looks absolutely gorgeous on a lady and is definitely one of my favorite items of lingerie! The triangle shape fits great and will suit most and flatter all sizes, however it is important to bear in mind that this style of darted cups will not offer the same support as a seamed bra cup. Nevertheless, this bra is absolutely perfect for everyday wear, and will look great in the bedroom when teamed with the matching thong from the set that mirrors the elegant embroidery on the bra. A perfect addition to any women's collection whether you intend to wear it night or day!

Comfort: 5/5

Underwire Bras - The Best Fashionable Bras For Support

When it comes to support, underwire bras are the best by far. Underwire bras enhance, uplift and support your breasts. If you are big breasted it is far more important to have the best support possible to lift up and hold the girls. These little curved wires in the undersides of bra cups really do support and lift you.

For underwires to work properly, you need to have the correct fit. The underwires need to fully encircle your breasts. It needs to be around the tissue, not on top. If you have any poking or pinching, you are wearing the wrong size bra. To ensure the correct fit, get yourself fitted or at least self measure. Again, check that it surrounds the breast. Make sure there is no spillage. See that the center gore in the front lays flat against the chest.

Not all wires are created equal. Most women like plastic coded metal. They also like flexible wires. The plastic wires help strengthen the wires and are less sharp. The flexibility helps to soften the underwire, too.

When trying on a bra, move around a lot. Jump up and down or run in place. You need to make sure that the wires are not poking or pinching. If you jiggle a lot, you are already not choosing a bra with adequate support. Pick a bra with limited movement and comfortable underwires. If you dig in, you will not dig this bra.

Make sure you have a supportive band and comfort straps. The band is crucial to support in addition to the underwires. It is best with 3 to 4 hook and eye closures and flexible without restricting or leaving marks. The straps should be wide to increase comfort level. The support comes from the underwire and band not the straps. The straps are there to help keep the bra in place. They should not dig in. You want to feel your best every time you wear a bra.

Underwires look better on than soft cup bras. They enhance the shape of your breast and your outfit. The cups stay formed and most have a nice molded shape. Plus, underwires come in a greater variety of styles. Bras such as lingerie bras, push up bras, and the bustier are mainly in underwire. You also have a greater color variety of underwire styles out there. Make sure that your underwire style bra matches your outfit. If you are wearing a low cut dress, use an underwire plunge bra. If you are wearing a strapless gown, use an underwire strapless bra. Fuller cup bras do not work for lower cut or backless outfits. Pay attention and enhance your look.

Take good care of your underwire bras and replace them every six months. Bras are not meant to last forever. The wires get bent out of shape. The surrounding material wears out allowing wires to poke through. The elastic wears out. Fortunately, you can help make your bras last longer by just a few simple steps. Wash your bras by hand. Let them air dry on a flat surface. If you must wash them, use a lingerie bag, cold water, and non harsh chemicals. If you insist on a dryer, keep it at a low temperature. Plus, use a small load of laundry.

Underwire bras, like any bras, are not equal. Make sure to get fitted. Check to see if they encompass your breasts and lay flat against your chest without spillage. Pay attention to the wires. Make sure they are flexible with plastic coding. Know your size and move around when trying on a bra. Remember a bra is meant to enhance your outfit. Buy a variety of styles. Finally, take good care of your lingerie. Hand wash and dry. Underwire bras are you friend. They enhance, uplift, and support you. When it comes to support and fashion, underwire bras are the best on the market.

If the Bra Don't Fit, You Must Quit - The Brand

Splurge shopping might be a bit off limits these days given the state of the economy, but you still have to buy certain garments. Bras certainly qualify. Oddly, not all bra brands provided sizes for all women.

You realize one day that your comfortable bras are wearing out. You head over to the mall for a few hours to browse through the selections. You find a beautiful balcony bra. You find a great strapless number as well. There's only one problem - you can't find your size. You ask the clerk and find out that the brand doesn't even make bras in your size!

Surprisingly, this is a very common problem. For whatever reason, some brands just provide bras in a relatively small sizing range. Sometimes the limitation is in the band size. Other times, they'll limit the range of cup sizes available. It is maddening, particularly if you don't fit in the "average" range, to wit, if you have a plus size bra size.

Plus size bras tend to be a fairly specific niche for bra brands. To be honest, many well know brands simply don't produce plus size bras for us women with larger breasts. This can be incredibly frustrating when shopping, particularly when you find a bra you love. One way to avoid the problem is to stick to brands that definitely cater to the plus size figure. Such brands include Le Mystere, Goddess, Freya, Panache, Fantasie of England, Chantelle and, of course, Enell for sports bras.

When it comes to bras, pricing comes a close second to fit when ranking the issues you have to consider. Oddly, plus size bras are generally priced the same as bras for "average" breast size women. One would think the niche would carry higher prices, but it simply isn't true these days.

I've always found it very odd that certain brands don't carry a full set of sizes. If you are going to go through the process of launching a brand and marketing it, an expensive affair by any measure, why would you limit your audience? To each their own, I guess. As far as you and I are concerned, try to find the best brands for your breast size and stick with them. Remember, if the bra don't fit, you must quit...the brand!

The Perfect Bra

The perfect bra doesn't cost $75 dollars a pop nor is it made with velvet and fine French lace. But the perfect bra supports and holds your girls up. Trust me I've coveted those perfect $100 bras for years and settled for the first bra that I could find at Target before my daughter could start whining. But now after 2 kids and 13 months of nursing for each child, my girls are not so "perky" any more,. They are exhausted and need a little lift! So I can't afford to settle anymore, my 26 year-old girls look a little older.

That's why I started doing a little research on finding the right Bra Size.

While it would be best to have a professional measure you, it's easily done at home as well.

First measure around your ribcage with a seamstress' measuring tape, just below your girls.

Add 5 to this number to get your bra size.

Now measure around the fullest part of your bosom for the measurement of the cup size.

To calculate subtract your band size from your cup size and refer to the size chart below

Second measurement is

1" larger than measurement 1--------------------A
2" larger than measurement 1--------------------B
3" larger than measurement 1--------------------C
4" larger than measurement 1--------------------D
5" larger than measurement 1--------------------E
6" larger than measurement 1--------------------F

You may find that you actually fit into a bra-size that doesn't "settle" with you on paper BUT go to the store, try one on, slip on a sexy shirt and notice the difference. Your girls don't sag, they are supported and inadvertently your posture is corrected, you will be more confident and your ladies more shapely, close and NOTICEABLE.

TIP: Get a professional to measure your size, or you measure and try the size and brand on at the store. Then look online for those brands and at a DISCOUNT.

Trust me, your girls, back, AND partner will thank you!

Put on a pair of white or black satin panties and see your husband's reaction. I promise it will be like he is married to a whole new woman. He will notice. Your cotton panties are good. Your cotton panties are comfortable. But your cotton panties do not stand out. They do not grab your husbands attention like satin panties will. The soft touch of satin alone will turn him on if you brush up against him.

Satin Panties Are the Way to Go

Many woman think that though satin panties look attractive they are extremely uncomfortable. They like the look of them but feel the pros of satin panties are far exceeded by the cons.

Its absolutely not so. Like many items you can buy you get what you pay for. If you want to buy the cheapest panties that you can find then they are going to feel more ridged and like cardboard.

If you buy quality satin panties they feel great and usually leave not visible panty lines that most woman try to avoid.

If you are trying to spice things up with your partner or want to feel more confident and sexy then you should definitely try them. Just having them on will give you a boost of confidence.

Purchase a pair of white satin panties and watch your husband or boyfriend's face light up. It will be as though you bought him an early Christmas present. He will forget about the game he was watching or thinking about watching. It can wait. He will be thinking about what you are wearing.

White and black ones are usually the most common. They both are sexy yet will imply different things. White satin panties are a little more feminine while black satin panties usually convey a more dominate, less graceful, yet equally sexy look to them.

Victoria's Secret has a vast array of beautiful panties that you can buy. I recommend going to their website and seeing what they have available. But in all reality you will be paying more for the name. Most of the major department stores in almost every city in America will have a section for you to buy satin panties.

You can always go back to the cotton panties. Give the satin material a try. One note of caution. While not uncomfortable the material satin panties are made from do not allow a lot of breathing room for your skin. Its nice to take a break from satin panties every several days to allow your skin to breath. That is the only con I can see in them.

Women's Thongs - Erotic and Beautiful

Thongs in women are specifically defined as an undergarment, characterized by a thin strap of material along the center of the garment's rear designed to sit between the wearer's buttocks. Women's thongs are further classified on the basis of type and form including g-strings, the traditional thong, v-strings and the t-back. Women's thongs are a delightful sight also on the beaches of South European countries, Florida and South America. Women, generally prefer to wear thong underwear to eliminate the visibility of the panty lines, to avoid an embarrassing scenario of a ride up so one need not pull at one's underwear in public and most importantly, the factor of comfort. Moreover, the entire concept of fashion consciousness and minimization of tan lines drive women to dress their lower inner half in women's thongs.

Women have the leeway to pick their choice right from elegant thong styles that seem just perfect for the special evening or to simply impress the hot hunk you've bumped at work to sexy, sensuous and erotic thongs designed for fun and flirty moments mixed with tease. For the purpose of comfort and convenience, the women's casual thongs would be a safe bet that would also perfectly complement to her favorite fit of jeans.

Whether for form or function, thongs are a popular mainstay of many women's lingerie drawer. Once the domain of sexy, exotic dancers, skimpy panties are now the lingerie of choice for everyone from teens to mature women. Very often, people though in jest, refer to women's thongs as "butt floss". Riding high on the hips and leaving the bottom completely exposed, women's thongs though may seem tacky have garnered substantial popularity in the last few decades. For women who have never worn thongs, they can be a little uncomfortable initially and/or a sleazy choice of an undergarment, however there are some logically practical reasons to wear these itty-bitty women's thongs.

They pose as a sexy alternative to teddies and are an extra addition to sheer nighties. When paired with decorative bras, they make a pretty and scintillating lingerie set. More over, they make a bold fashion statement underneath low rise jeans for the young and adventurous. Men also love to fantasize seeing their women in revealing, skimpy woman's thongs and panties. Bottom baring lingerie or women's thongs have an A-list of types and styles to their credit. When people refer to "butt floss", they are picturing a g-string.

This barely there panty for the bravest and most confident souls features a more than a little triangle in the front, fitted with a thin string around the hips and between the cheeks of the butt. If you want more coverage than what is offered by a g-string, women can opt for T-back thongs. The side straps conveniently stretch straight across the top of the buttocks; from back the straps resemble the letter 'T'. The Rio women's thongs are quite similar to T-back except that the side straps rise above the hips.

Tanga, another popular thong for women, exposes the bottom of the butt cheeks, but covers everything else. Rios and tangas are a hot favorite among young women as they are more comfortable for regular use. On the contrary, g-strings are not as practical for an all-day use. If you are concerned about your panty line showing, then T-backs can work wonders and take your confidence to new heights. For the first time buyers and users, tangas and Rios offer a welcoming and gentle initiation into the world of sexy women's thongs. For women with generous hips, Rios poses as more forgiving.

Women's thongs are available in an extensive assortment of materials and the styles you decide to purchase are largely a matter of preference. Cotton is an apt choice of material for all day use thongs as it is a breathable fabric and lessens the risk of infection. For special and intimate moments, silk and Lycra is a sensuous choice. PVC or leather are also raging possibilities for a daring night time look. The choices are vast and the collection ranges from elegant to casual to sexy. Pick your choice and put your fancies into action.

When Was the Last Time You Checked Your Bra Size?

When was the last time you checked your bra size? Most women would say some time in their 20s! If only it were so easy! The truth is your body changes throughout your life, which means you need to reconsider your bra size.

Let's consider some basic anatomical things we all deal with as women. As you've matured, what has happened to your body? Are your thighs toned like when you were 22? Mine aren't and neither are most women's. [Sigh]. The same goes for the 'junk in the trunk" look, wrinkles and...well, why get depressed. The point is your body changes over time. Your upper body and breasts are no different.

As you age, your upper body will tend to grow thicker. You know - muffin tops and back fat. As we naturally thicken up a bit, we need to consider whether the bras we have still really fit. The band size may be too small. Indications of this would be getting poked in the inside or your arm when wearing underwire bras. This happens because the bra is too tight and the outer edge is being pulled. As it is pulled, the underwires tend to bend out which makes the points into little spears. If you are experiencing this, going up a band size can make a world of difference.

Unfortunately, the band size isn't the only issue we face. As we all know, the girls don't remain so perky as time passes. They naturally change shape each month as go through menstruation, but the passage of time ultimately introduced gravity to the body. This puts wear and tear on the Cooper's ligaments which hold the girls up. As the ligaments stretch, our breasts will hang lower and will actually change shape a bit. When this happens, the bra you wore in your twenties simply isn't going to cut it.

As the girls change, you need to consider the cup size and design of bras. You may want to switch to a balcony bra or some other bra that provides more support around the bottom of the cup. As to the cup size, consider how the girls fit in the cup. If there is extra space, the cup size is too big. If you are spilling over, the cup size is too small. Getting the right cup size will eliminate discomfort.

I'll admit it. I'll get into a routine and not really pay attention to the elements of that routine. Millions of women are wearing the wrong bra size because they do the same thing in their routines. This can lead to breast discomfort, shoulder pain, headaches, neck pain and poking. Take 10 minutes out of your day, put the bra you wear the most on and check to see if it really fits or not.

Evolution of Trends The Salong De Lingerie Paris 2009

The Salon de Lingerie in Paris is the first exhibition showing the collections for autumn/winter 2009. Taking place in the massive Porte des Versaille conference centre it attracts exhibitors and buyers from across the globe. This January saw a more subdued event with fewer exhibitors and buyers making the trip. Despite the lower turn out the mood was optimistic and the collections more focussed than in previous years. Jos Berry from Concepts Paris identified the 6 key trends for the season:

1. Real Corsetry

2. Funky Couture

3. Flowers with a difference

4. Romantic Naturals

5. La Belle Epoque

6. Geometric

• Real corsetry Structured and seamed pieces were prevalent for the autumn/winter 09. Satin and retro constructions were seen in the Der Kommisar and Sonia Rykel collections. There is more and more coverage over the torso with an increase in teddies and bodies. Jolidon combines the all in one style with seductive fabrics and the traditional colours of black and red. Suspender belts have followed this trend by becoming wider and more cinch-like in design.

The trend of real corsetry reflects the importance of tradition and heritage in lingerie while the new technology has made the designs more practical to wear in busy modern day life.

• Funky Couture Lace is major trend with guipure embroidery in combination with satin, targeted at younger women. Made by Niki is a perfect example of the use of traditional look and fit with modern colour combination. Marjolaine also reflects this in their silk nightwear combining lime green and cerise pink.

This funky new design has also spread to maternity wear, companies such as Hot Milk! and Agnes et Ses Princes use trimmings and bold printed fabrics to ensure femininity in these function pieces.

• Flowers with a difference Flowers are an enduring staple in lingerie design. English roses were used beautifully by Odille and Karen Millen, printed on satin with contrasting ribbons, bows or ruffles. Printed lingerie used organic floral development with soft colour contrasts, grey being used heavily in lavender and smoky tones.

• Romantic naturals Companies such as Calida and Hanro have moved back to their roots using natural cotton in their collections. The subdued colours available in cottons give a soft romantic palette with soft greys and beiges. Designers have taken classic designs and used handkerchief weaves and chunky lace detailing to give a contemporary edge.

Streetwear has been a notable influence using layering and adding knitted sweaters and garments have been re-proportioned to be more risqué while utilising old fashioned pointelle knits.

There has been an increased use of organic and biodegrable cottons but not at the expense of femininity. An extension of the use of cotton has been the spread of the preppy American college look epitomised by Venus et Jules.

• La Belle Epoque La Belle Epoque celebrates the eccentricity at this seasons show. The rich opulent colours combined with the seductive silky textures evoke an Art Nouveau drawing room. There has also been a strong influence of Liberty prints further adding to the richness of the collections. Improvements in technology allow designers to break the rules and move away from the traditional structure of pieces. Valery produced a beautiful collection incorporating a 2 way stretch taffeta in opulent colours.

• Geometric Geometric prints and design have made a steady impact over the past few year but they finally appear to be coming into their own. The innovative designs from Marlies Dekkers are clearly influencing the mainstream lingerie. Straps that cross at the back and additional straps across the décolletage and around the neck add sexiness through strong definite lines.

The improvement in the quality of printing geometric patterns has helped increase the popularity. The deep inky colours of the season benefit from the clear lines in the graphic designs.

Each year the Salon de Lingerie provides the focus of the next seasons lingerie trends and with the continuing innovation in fabrics and designs it will remain the most important event for the industry year after year.

Men Love Traditional Sexy Lingerie

You don't need to necessarily wear the black leather dominatrix suit with stiletto boots. For many people, traditional lingerie is sexy lingerie! Obviously you will have to toss the granny panties but you can turn old fashioned into hot.

Can Traditional Lingerie Be Sexy Lingerie?

Take the sexy silk lingerie look, for example. No matter the color, silk dances exotically on a woman's body. Ruby red silk with black lace is particularly popular and sensual, especially when there's a plunged neck. In general, lace is attractive, alluring, and sexy for any man. On top of the attractive physical appeal, lace feels good to the touch. Lace is probably the most traditional and popular material for lingerie.

Lace continues to be popular even after centuries because of the way that it flows on the curves of the female body. You can find lace lingerie that covers body parts or some that is see-through but even the transparent pieces are tasteful. Any color lace can be sexy whether it is black, white, red, pink, or green. Plus, matching lace bras with lace panties equals sexy lingerie!

Any lingerie can be sexy, it is not what it is but how you present it. Consider pin-up women, for instance, they are some of the sexiest women alive. They wore old fashioned lingerie, similar to granny panties but much more sexual. The tops that they wore were generally old fashioned, pointy-looking bras. With a shirt on, this looks silly, however, when it is alone, it is sexy. There is nothing sexier to a man than a pin-up woman.

Another traditional but sexy lingerie look is a corset with panties and a garter clip that attaches to knee-high tights. Most of the time these outfits are dark like a deep red or purple and worn with high heels. Does this remind you of a burlesque dancer? If so that is good because that's the idea. Burlesque dancers are very intimate and sexy, they show just enough, like a tease. This is great particularly for foreplay because it takes the idea of strong and sexy woman and puts it right in your bedroom.

Why Men Love Traditional Sexy Lingerie

Men are very simple creatures and there's no better way to show them that you're in the mood than by showing off your body for them. It is very arousing to have a woman lying in the bed in some sexy lingerie and sometimes it is the more old fashioned look that works the best.

Everyone Needs Hot Lingerie in Their Lives!

Lingerie is a French term that is defined as women's intimate apparel. When someone hears the word lingerie, it depicts a sexy feminine image. Some people don't like to spend money on lingerie because it is not "comfortable" or it is too expensive. But nobody said it was cheap OR easy to be sexy!

Why Hot Lingerie is Important

Nowadays, companies are coming out with the most beautiful and eccentric lingerie that we have ever seen. Some people are using these new designs to their advantage but others still have the same old boring opinion on it. What many women do not understand is that there are reasons why they need to have hot lingerie.

How Often Are You Really Washing Your Bras?

Ask any woman how often she washes her bras and you'll probably be told it is none of your business! If pushed, she'll undoubtedly say she does it after every wearing. As we all know, that isn't exactly the truth.

How often are you really washing your bras? It is the rare woman that does it after every wearing. Why? Well, it has to do with the cleaning process. A bra should be hand washed and then hung up on a line to dry. That requires a lot more effort than just throwing it in the washer and dryer.

Most women wash their bras intermittently. We all have a rotation of bras. You might have anywhere from three to six that you just wear one after the other. When time permits or your think the bras are duty, you'll take the time to wash them. Yes, it sounds a bit nasty, but that's the way we all seem to work if we are honest.

And what about those women who wash them every time they wear them? The vast majority of you [it certainly doesn't include me!] are throwing them in the washer and dryer. To each their own, but bras cleaned in this manner tend to fall apart. You can go through tens of thousands of excess dollars in bras over your lifetime if you keep taking this approach.

So, how often should you wash a bra? As a general rule, you should wash it after every second wearing. Now there are obvious exceptions to this rule. If you just finished running five miles, you really need to wash that sports bra before wearing it again. If you wear a particular bra only every so often, that should probably be washed after each wearing as well.

There are some definite steps you want to take to make your bra last as well. Hand washing is a must. Bras are called "delicates" for a reason. Washers and dryers will leave them out of shape and in tatters. Make sure to use an undergarment detergent, which tends to be less harsh that chemical clothing detergents. Finally, let your bras air dry. The heat in a dryer is devastating to the plastic areas of your bra.

Bras are one of the fundamental parts of any wardrobe. Take care of them and they will last for a surprisingly long time. While washing frequency is important, it is really how you wash them that will make all the difference.

Women's Bras - Yesterday, Today and Beyond

Bras have been around for thousands of years, but were not widely known until the Edwardian period. These bras did not look like the bras we know today. They were very utilitarian in design and had many straps and cinches to improve ones form.

Bras began to become main stream when Mary Phelps-Jacob patented her design in 1914. The prototype was actually made of two silk handkerchiefs and some baby ribbon. As in many cases Mrs. Phelps -Jacob was not able to make a business out of her prototype and sold the patent rights for $1500. The company that bought that patent made millions of dollars selling bras.

Women's breasts were now sized by inches and the industry exploded. In today's world the bra takes many forms and styles. Some are utilitarian like the first bras, but still look and wear like clothing. Many contemporary bras are now lingerie and are meant to be seen without outerwear. Shapers, under wire, minimizer, enhancer and many more styles are available to help women get their desired look.

Sports bras are an entire industry now. From a young age women use sports bras to help them compete and look good while doing a wide variety of activities. These types of bras became hugely popular when Brandy Chastain of the women's US national soccer team, ripped her shirt off and showed her sports bra to a cheering world when they won the championship.

Seeing models and sports figures in bras on the covers of magazines and billboards is commonplace now. We have become a society that sees undergarments as a fashion statement.

Shopping for women's bras can still be embarrassing in retail stores so may women choose to do it online at stores like http://www.shapeyourself.net

Lingerie For Women With Real Bodies

I hate looking at lingerie ads. Oh, the lingerie is not the problem. The models are. What woman who lives a real life has a body like that? I don't! If you are like me, it is important to know there is lingerie for women with real bodies like us girls.

It wasn't long ago that women who were not size one were pretty much out of luck when it comes to lingerie. The choices basically boiled down to industrial bras similar to something Madonna wears in her concerts and big, formless and definitely unsexy panties. Fortunately, this grim assessment no longer applies today.

Lingerie designers have awoken and realized that there is a bit section of the market that does not find a g-string the size of tooth floss to be an option. This has led to an explosion in options for us women with real bodies. When I say explosion, I mean it. Every single form of lingerie now comes in a size for real bodied women in addition to all those malnourished super models we see in the magazines. How is that for progress?

Of course, not every piece of lingerie is perfect for every woman. Some just go with certain body types and some do not. The key, of course, is to understand this rule and how it applies to your specific situation. Every woman has parts of her body that she loves and parts that make her want to find out more about plastic surgery. Often we like to emphasize our breast, but not so much our derriere. If this sounds like you, why not wear a plunge bra that enhances cleavage with a longer silk robe that hides your rear? Remember, emphasize the good and move the eyes away from the not so good.

A second issue where us normal gals can go wrong with lingerie has to do with sizing. We often equate smaller to better. This can be true with the amount of material used in the piece of lingerie. This is not the same as saying a smaller size is better. Do not confuse the two. Buy a style of lingerie that emphasizes your assets, but make sure to buy the right size. Going one or two sizes smaller than you would normally wear is not going to make you look good and is going to be uncomfortable as well. It is hard to be sexy if you are uncomfortable.

Waif-like super models are great and all when it comes to fashion, but we real women need something more realistic for us. Fortunately, there are plenty of options available for us today.

Satin Panties Are the Way to Go

Many woman think that though satin panties look attractive they are extremely uncomfortable. They like the look of them but feel the pros of satin panties are far exceeded by the cons.

Its absolutely not so. Like many items you can buy you get what you pay for. If you want to buy the cheapest panties that you can find then they are going to feel more ridged and like cardboard.

If you buy quality satin panties they feel great and usually leave not visible panty lines that most woman try to avoid.

If you are trying to spice things up with your partner or want to feel more confident and sexy then you should definitely try them. Just having them on will give you a boost of confidence.

Purchase a pair of white satin panties and watch your husband or boyfriend's face light up. It will be as though you bought him an early Christmas present. He will forget about the game he was watching or thinking about watching. It can wait. He will be thinking about what you are wearing.

White and black ones are usually the most common. They both are sexy yet will imply different things. White satin panties are a little more feminine while black satin panties usually convey a more dominate, less graceful, yet equally sexy look to them.

Victoria's Secret has a vast array of beautiful satin panties that you can buy. I recommend going to their website and seeing what they have available. But in all reality you will be paying more for the name. Most of the major department stores in almost every city in America will have a section for you to buy satin panties.

You can always go back to the cotton panties. Give the satin material a try. One note of caution. While not uncomfortable the material satin panties are made from do not allow a lot of breathing room for your skin. Its nice to take a break from satin panties every several days to allow your skin to breath. That is the only con I can see in them.

For more information on satin panties I would recommend going to http://satinpantiesguide.com. They have some interesting information there. A friend of mine wrote some very interesting articles on that blog.

Women's Thongs - Erotic and Beautiful

Thongs in women are specifically defined as an undergarment, characterized by a thin strap of material along the center of the garment's rear designed to sit between the wearer's buttocks. Women's thongs are further classified on the basis of type and form including g-strings, the traditional thong, v-strings and the t-back. Women's thongs are a delightful sight also on the beaches of South European countries, Florida and South America. Women, generally prefer to wear thong underwear to eliminate the visibility of the panty lines, to avoid an embarrassing scenario of a ride up so one need not pull at one's underwear in public and most importantly, the factor of comfort. Moreover, the entire concept of fashion consciousness and minimization of tan lines drive women to dress their lower inner half in women's thongs.

Women have the leeway to pick their choice right from elegant thong styles that seem just perfect for the special evening or to simply impress the hot hunk you've bumped at work to sexy, sensuous and erotic thongs designed for fun and flirty moments mixed with tease. For the purpose of comfort and convenience, the women's casual thongs would be a safe bet that would also perfectly complement to her favorite fit of jeans.

Whether for form or function, thongs are a popular mainstay of many women's lingerie drawer. Once the domain of sexy, exotic dancers, skimpy panties are now the lingerie of choice for everyone from teens to mature women. Very often, people though in jest, refer to women's thongs as "butt floss". Riding high on the hips and leaving the bottom completely exposed, women's thongs though may seem tacky have garnered substantial popularity in the last few decades. For women who have never worn thongs, they can be a little uncomfortable initially and/or a sleazy choice of an undergarment, however there are some logically practical reasons to wear these itty-bitty women's thongs.

They pose as a sexy alternative to teddies and are an extra addition to sheer nighties. When paired with decorative bras, they make a pretty and scintillating lingerie set. More over, they make a bold fashion statement underneath low rise jeans for the young and adventurous. Men also love to fantasize seeing their women in revealing, skimpy woman's thongs and panties. Bottom baring lingerie or women's thongs have an A-list of types and styles to their credit. When people refer to "butt floss", they are picturing a g-string.

This barely there panty for the bravest and most confident souls features a more than a little triangle in the front, fitted with a thin string around the hips and between the cheeks of the butt. If you want more coverage than what is offered by a g-string, women can opt for T-back thongs. The side straps conveniently stretch straight across the top of the buttocks; from back the straps resemble the letter 'T'. The Rio women's thongs are quite similar to T-back except that the side straps rise above the hips.

Tanga, another popular thong for women, exposes the bottom of the butt cheeks, but covers everything else. Rios and tangas are a hot favorite among young women as they are more comfortable for regular use. On the contrary, g-strings are not as practical for an all-day use. If you are concerned about your panty line showing, then T-backs can work wonders and take your confidence to new heights. For the first time buyers and users, tangas and Rios offer a welcoming and gentle initiation into the world of sexy women's thongs. For women with generous hips, Rios poses as more forgiving.

Women's thongs are available in an extensive assortment of materials and the styles you decide to purchase are largely a matter of preference. Cotton is an apt choice of material for all day use thongs as it is a breathable fabric and lessens the risk of infection. For special and intimate moments, silk and Lycra is a sensuous choice. PVC or leather are also raging possibilities for a daring night time look. The choices are vast and the collection ranges from elegant to casual to sexy. Pick your choice and put your fancies into action.

Silk For Lingerie, Where Does it Come From

We all know what silk feels and looks like, but how many of us know anything about its extraordinary history. It was first developed over five thousand years ago in China and was initially reserved for the emperors. It came from the tiny silkworm, which feeds on mulberry leaves, whose cocoon was made of a silken thread which could be unravelled. Over time silk spread throughout the country and finally began to be heard of beyond China's borders. The Emperors were desperate to keep the skills and secrets of silk making secret, but inevitably it seeped out. By 300 BC the Koreans had begun to manufacture silk and five hundred years later the skills had reached as far as India.

Although the Romans are believed to have traded in silk, the secrets of the industry were not to reach Europe until five hundred years after Christ. It is said that monks working for the Emperor Justinian were the first to bring silkworm eggs to Constantinople in hollow canes.

Merchants from Venice traded extensively in silk and encouraged silk growers to settle in Italy. By the 13th century, Italian silk was a significant source of trade. Since that period, the silk worked in the Como region has been the most valuable silk in the world. Italian silk was so popular in Europe that Francis I of France invited Italian silk makers to France to create a French silk industry. This was the beginning of the French lingerie industry which is some of the finest in the world lingerie specialising in silk and Chantilly lace sets. Mass emigration during periods of religious dispute seriously damaged French industry and introduced the various textile skills, including silk, to other countries...

Suffering From Breast Pain? - A Different Bra Could Be the Cure

Do you get soreness or just outright pain in your breasts? Known as Mastodynia, the discomfort may be something that a simple bra change could resolve.

Mastodynia is one of many types of breast pain. It is somewhat of a catch all phrase, but describes a pain that can be dull or sharp and can come and go. It doesn't get much more obtuse than that, eh?

For most women, the real fear of Mastodynia is that it is an indication of the dreaded breast cancer. The good news is it usually is not. Breast cancer usually presents as a lump and the lump is rarely painful. Mastodynia, on the other hand, is often more a result of pain in joints surrounding the breasts or an underlying arthritic condition. In short, we are talking apples and oranges.

If you suffer from pain in the breast, there are a number of different strategies for dealing with the problem. In some cases, changes to a person's diet can make a world of difference. This is particularly true if you drink a lot of caffeine. Since there are different causes and different manifestations to breast pain, diet is not a cure all.

Changing your bra probably does not sound like a form of treatment to you. In truth, it can make a world of difference. Why? Well, most women wear the wrong size of bra. Even if they get the size correct, the often wear the bra incorrectly which can cause a lot of pain through the neck, shoulders and breast.

This combination can make you miserable over time. In a recent UK study, women suffering from breast pain were given a professional bra fitting for a full support bra. 24 percent of them were "cured". Obviously, there was no cure other than getting a comfortable fit. It may sound unbelievable, but think about wearing pants that are two sizes too small. After a while, you are going to be miserable and your waistline is going to be painful to the touch.

As women, we are fearful of breast cancer and rightly so. Pain in your breasts, however, usually is not a sign of breast cancer, so don't panic when it occurs. Instead, get a professional bra fitting to see if that takes care of the problem. If it doesn't, then speak with a doctor about your options. Again, Mastodynia is rarely a first indicator of breast cancer, so don't be miserable because you are afraid to go see a doctor. You could be living in pain for no reason whatsoever.

Five Tips to Help You Shop Online For Sexy Panties and Lingerie

Shopping online for panties and lingerie saves time, and most online stores offer more color and size choices than physical stores. Some stores also offer free shipping when you place an order that meets their price guidelines. That's a bonus! Once you know how to shop for panties and lingerie online, and you've bookmarked your favorite store, any purchase you make in the future will take you less than five minutes.

To become an adept online shopper, especially when ordering panties, you must consider five things before clicking the order button.

1. Check the website's refund and exchange policies. You should also check your state's laws regarding the return of undergarments, since some states may not allow it, regardless if the website says they have a return policy. Make sure the online store will allow you to return any items that don't fit correctly. In addition, make a mental note if you have to return your merchandise within a specific timeframe to receive a refund, or to exchange it.

2. When viewing panties online, focus on the panty's design, color, pattern, and any stated measurements regarding the height of the rise, or the width of the fabric, rather than looking at the model who's wearing the undergarment.

3. Be sure to pay attention to the type of fabric the panties are made of, and if the crotch area is lined or unlined. If the washing instructions tell you that the panties must be dry cleaned, you'll want to know that before you buy them.

4. Review the sizing chart for the style of panties that you want to order, since a size "small" or "medium" may vary as much as an inch, depending upon which company makes the panties. If you're buying microfiber or stretch lace, you might be able to buy the panties in a smaller size to get the most comfortable fit. Also note that some designer panties are available in a "one size fits all" category.

5. Take advantage of quantity discounts, and resist paying high costs for overnight delivery, especially if you need the panties for a trip the next day. Delays happen, and most times, you could easily buy a second pair of panties for the extra shipping charges.

After placing your first order for panties through an online store, it will help you establish a baseline for all future purchases. You'll know how many days it took to process your order, and you'll know how long it took your order to arrive. If the store allows you to save your customer information, then your next purchase will take less time. In addition, if your prior purchases are viewable online, you can quickly choose the same item number the next time you shop.

Hanky Panky Panties - How to Determine What Size Panties to Buy When You Shop Online

Hanky Panky panties are known as being the most comfortable fitting panties in the world, because when you buy the right size for your body's shape, you don't even feel like you're wearing panties. Nevertheless, how do you determine what's the perfect size when you buy panties online?

As women, we all know that a size "small" means different measurements to different vendors. Therefore, it's not easy to find a store online that sells Hanky Panky panties and assume that a size small at Victoria's Secret will be the same as buying a size small or a "one size fits all" at another store. Sizing in America is not consistent among panty manufacturers.

Women want panties that fit their body's shape and contour, and we don't want panties that ride up or feel unnatural. To help you through the painful process of buying and exchanging panties at a local store or mall, there is a way that you can buy panties online with almost guaranteed success...size-wise.

How to Find the Right Size Panties for Your Body's Size and Shape

When buying panties online, especially Hanky Panky panties, you need to know only two measurements-your waist and your hips. Ideally, you will have an assistant or a close friend who can measure you. It will save you a lot of time, and since someone else is measuring you, she will most likely take more accurate measurements than you could perform on yourself. Make sure that your body's measurements correspond to the sizing available for the panties you're buying.

How to Take Your Waist Measurement

You can take your waist measurement by wrapping a cloth tape measure around the natural break in your waist. To locate your waist's location, if it isn't obvious, just bend to one side (right or left). Find the crease that results while you're bending sideways. Place your finger there to mark the location. Then just measure around, and jot down the number of inches for your waist's size.

How to Take Your Hip Measurement

Take the tape measure and wrap it around the fullest part of your hips, and make sure that the line of the tape measure is parallel to the floor. (That's why it's best to have someone assist you.)

Once you have your waist and hip measurements written down on a sheet of paper, the next things to consider are the fabric choices, styles, and the stated sizes that the site carries in their inventory.

Finally, to determine your correct panty size, if your measurements fall between two panty sizes on the website's sizing chart, choose the larger size in the measurement's range. For example, if your waist measurement is twenty-nine to thirty inches, and your hip measurement is thirty-nine to forty inches, the equivalent panty size would be a size seven, or a large.

Surprise Your Husband With Sexy Plus-Size Lingerie

Do you ever get the feeling that you and your husband are in a rut? Do you wear an oversize t-shirt or flannel pajamas to bed every night? Has the romance disappeared from your marriage? These days you'll find that plus-size lingerie is available to help full figure women look and feel sexy again.

Depending on your comfort level, you can find plus-size lingerie that runs the gamut of how revealing it is. You can find plus-size lingerie that is racy and hot or classy and elegant-it's up to you.

One flirtatious, but modest, piece of plus-size lingerie is the babydoll. A babydoll is like a short mini-dress. Depending on how daring you are, they come in sheer fabric, but they also come in cotton, lace, silk, and satin if you want to be more covered up. Babydolls tend to accentuate your cleavage while disguising a larger stomach and hips. If you want to be even more covered, you might be comfortable in buying a matching robe, either long or short. Your husband will still love the sexy surprise, and you might feel more comfortable a little more covered up, at least until you get more used to wearing sexy plus-size lingerie. If you want to wear something even more modest, buy a long, ankle-length, silky nightgown, which you can also pair with a matching robe.

If you're ready to be a bit more daring, sexy corsets and bustiers come in plus-sizes and will make you more shapely and play up your curves. Not only will you look voluptuous in a sexy corset, but you can make it even hotter if you add a pair of thong panties, garter belt, stockings, and a pair of kitten heels. You won't have to worry about feeling uncomfortable in this outfit since your husband will be so thrilled he won't give you the opportunity to become embarrassed for trying something new.

A Man's Guide to Buying Lingerie For His Partner For Valentines Day

Men, would you like to buy some new lingerie for your wife, partner or girlfriend this Valentine's Day? Has your partner dropped subtle hints about what she would like but you never manage to follow through?

If so, are you unsure how to navigate this minefield and worried that she will not like your choice and therefore probably refuse to wear it? Women ask many questions when buying lingerie but men have to ask even more. You also have the additional fearful considerations like: will I buy the right size? what colour will suit her best? will it fit? and, the most important questions of all, will she ever speak to me again?

Remember the first thing to do is your research since it's important to buy her something that she will actually enjoy wearing and won't take offence to. If it is possible, carefully sort through her underwear drawer to find the size of her bra and knickers. Also, take a look at the type of underwear she prefers. Is it cotton or silk, plain or lacy? If it is quite plain then she is unlikely to like anything with loads of lace and similarly, if it is all lacy layers and ribbons, don't opt for plain underwear!

If you know her size then that is a good start but if you do not and you buy something that's too small, although she may feel flattered you think she is that size it could also be embarassing since she would have to tell you she was larger. On the other hand. if you buy something too big she will see this as you seeing her larger than she really is and so she will probably never talk to you again! It really is a minefield!

Nowadays lingerie comes in a myriad of colours. For Valentine's Day you do not have to buy red, black is usually also a good choice. You could also take some hints from the colours she wears. However, for gift lingerie, don't go for white. If you really cannot make up your mind, then soft shades like champagne, peach or cream look great on any skin.

Once you have decided on the colour, you will need to consider bra shape. Under-wired bras tend to give a better shape and lift. Plunge styles are the most flattering for the majority of women. A word of warning. You will not be popular if you purchase items with words like 'slimming', 'padded' or 'control' on them. This could be interpreted as meaning you think she is not slim, needs padding or, worse still, is out of control!

Choosing something sexy does not always mean excessively lacy. For example, smooth fabrics such as silk and satin feel luxurious and will look better under blouses and fitted tops. If possible, always try to buy matching sets with an extra pair of knickers so she can wear the set for longer.

Since this is a special Valentine's gift, try to buy the best you can afford since you really do get what you pay for. Cheap underwear does not always provide good support and certainly does not last as long either.

Several shops now offer a gift wrapping service which is excellent for getting your beautiful new lingerie beautifully presentable. If no service is available, then buy a gift box and a big silky ribbon and do it yourself.

Many stores now have specialist lingerie advisors. Unfortunately, some men are still either afraid or too embarrassed to ask them for advice. If you have followed the above guide to buying lingerie but have still been unable to find anything to purchase, then you could consider using an image consultant from Colour Me Beautiful who will be able to go to the shops with you and help you in your choice.

Lingerie Terms For Men Trying to Buy Valentine's Day Gifts

Valentine's Day is just around the corner and that means you are on the spot to get your loved one something nice. Yes, flowers are nice. The same goes for chocolate. But what about something a bit more intimate? Yes - lingerie.

The first thing men learn when considering buying lingerie for the first time is the selection. There are a shocking number of ways to go. Trying to make heads or tails of the different options can be difficult. In this article, we solve that problem. Yes, we are detailing some of the key types of lingerie available so you can talk the talk when shopping for it.

The Baby Doll - This is a safe bet for any man looking for an intimate gift. It is a short, soft top that comes with matching panties. The top hangs down like a dress to the hips and is very intimate. The real beauty of this option is it tends to come in a one size fits all version. In short, you don't have to run the risk of getting the wrong size.

Corsets - Also called bustiers, this is the classic bra/waist piece that most men picture with lingerie. It pushes the breast up and then extends tightly over the waistline. The actual goal of this fashion piece is to create an hourglass look, but men should be wary when buying this as a gift. They are not particularly comfortable and some women do not like them. Make sure that special lady in you life does.

G-String - All men know what a g-string is, so I will not take the time to explain it. What I will say, however, is women tend to dislike g-strings in proportion to the number of men who love them. Some women do love them, but most find them uncomfortable. Try walking around with a small rope between your buns and you'll soon know why. Regardless, make sure she already owns and wears them or your gift could go down poorly.

Teddy - The Teddy is a magical lingerie piece. It is the comfortable for us gals and exceedingly sexy for men. So, should you rush out and buy one for the woman in your life? No! A Teddy is a great choice for a woman, but there is a huge problem with them. They have very particular fits. This means that it is very hard to size them correctly. Just because your gal pal wears a size 3 does not mean this size of Teddy will fit. In general, men should avoid buying a Teddy as a gift. It will almost always be too big or small - a recipe for an unhappy woman!

So, what should you select? Well, the answer requires the correct perspective. Remember, you are not buying what you like. You are buying what she likes. A woman who feels sexy is sexy. A woman who feels uncomfortable is not. Think about what she has worn in the past and you should be able to get a pretty good idea of which direction to go.

Sports Bras - Support For When You Play

When it comes to women's fashion, there is a bra for just about every outfit and look. Ah, but what if fashion isn't the issue. What if you are simply going out to run a few miles to burn off some calories? The sports bra is the piece de-resistance!

The breasts are obviously a natural element of the female body. This means that they are designed for the daily rigors of life including exercise. The only problem is this biological design allows for serious stretching. One need only watch a documentary on an African tribe to realize that the idea of having a bust line that starts around your hips is a possibility.

The breasts can take a beating during exercise. Any standing exercise involves a jarring up and down motion. Your breasts have no natural means for dealing with this. The answer to preventing stretching is to give them artificial help. The sports bra is that help.

The first thing to understand about sports bras is they are designed to deal with functionality, not fashion. Frankly, they are not attractive, sexy or any other alluring word. I always thought it was funny when the media made a big deal out of Brandi Chastain pulling off her jersey after the winning goal in the Women's World Cup of soccer. She was wearing a sports bra which provided more coverage than even the most conservative women's bikini top! Not exactly sexy!

A good sports bra is all about support. The idea is to minimize the impact on the breasts during the jarring movement of exercise. As a result, you want something that is going to hold the breasts to the chest wall. The cup should be all encompassing and there should be no movement for the breasts. You want the cups to be a bit snug as well.

As with any bra, the bottom of the bra should be providing the most support. This is done via the band circling the torso. With a sports bra, the movement that must be dealt with is far more than with a bra for normal activities. As a result, you should use a sports bra with a wide bra at the bottom.. This is going to create more surface area to establish a tight fit on your torso and will prevent slippage.

Once you've found the perfect sports bra for your body, you can take a look in the mirror. It should look like something your grandmother probably wears. That's okay. Unless you score the winning goal in the World Cup, nobody is going to see it and your breasts will thank you at the end of a long run.
