A Man’s Guide to Women’s Lingerie

Monday, April 28th, 2008
anonymous asked:


As men and women all over the world share their warmth on these cold wintry nights, a celebration of love looms on the horizon, and with it, the promise of the coming spring. The rituals of Valentines Day so often consists of a box of chocolates and some roses, followed by dinner, and an expectation of some better than the usual ***. Ever wonder if it could get any better than this? It can.

Here’s a wake up call to men of all ages. It’s up to you to make it better. Take hold of the reins and do the unexpected. Surprise your lover and she’ll surprise you beyond your wildest expectations. Give her some **** lingerie, then sit back and enjoy the show! Lingerie - the gift that keeps on giving!

Women love to look pretty, men love to look at pretty women, so what’s the problem here? Granted, most men’s ultimate goal is to get their women naked, but throw into the equation a tightly laced thong teddy with a skirted garter and fishnet hose - heck, getting there is half the fun!

Lingerie comes in many styles and materials and is conveniently available online (for those of us who don’t particularly want to make a trip to Victoria’s Secret). Online lingerie retailers ship their products discreetly in plain boxes so as not to spill the beans to the neighbors, your wife, or the person you want to surprise. And there’s good news for those men who like their women big; plenty of stores out there that offer plus size lingerie, up to 3X!

With all this in mind, men need to become educated consumers in a world of lingerie that is primarily dominated by women. It is for this reason that I have taken it upon myself to write this informative “Man’s Guide to Women’s Lingerie”.

Corsets and Bustier: a history of lingerie

As recently as the 1830’s, the corset was thought of as a medical necessity. Being that women were the weaker sex, they needed the support of a laced corset to hold them up for any length of time. Girls from the ages of two or three began their lives being strapped in daily to a tight laced corset. Unfortunately for the women, by the time they reached their prime they were unable to stand or sit upright for very long without getting the “vapors”.

Early corsets were made from canvas, (plenty of that around from all the sailing ships) and had laces all the way up the back pulled so tight as to make it darn near impossible to draw a deep breath. Needless to say, the prevailing fashion (or fetish) of the day was a very small waist line.

Today’s modern corset is made from softer and suppler materials such as silk, satin and lace, (as well as leather) to name a few. It is designed to accentuate a woman’s curves, not to alter them. For many men there is nothing more arousing than the sight of a willing accomplice all dressed up in a tight little laced up leather corset, and it’s a turn on for women too!

Out of the corset evolved the “Bustier”, predecessor to the modern day brazier. It seems that men even back then liked to see their women’s ******* pushed up and squeezed together! A bustier is basically an underwire bra that extends down to the waistline. Traditionally with a lace up front, today’s bustiers can fasten in a variety of ways. Zippers, snaps, hooks and eyes, (remember the trouble we had undoing bras in high school?) even Velcro seems to get the job done. Keep in mind the fastenings when considering a lingerie purchase. The removal of these garments can at times try a man’s patience. Remember the times when you’ve been asked to take it easy and slow down? Do it now, and savor the moment!

Another popular lingerie design is what’s known as the “Teddy”. Similar to a corset in design, a teddy is a one piece suit that starts out as a bustier, extends down between the legs as a thong, and ends up fastening to the back of the bodice. Simple by definition, teddies can take the form of something resembling a harness, to a full fledged zippered, hooked, and laced corset with an attached thong. Many teddies come with garter belts attached, adding endless possibilities for some naughty, bad little girls’ psychopathic imagination to run wild with.

For the truly innocent, perpetual virgin nice girl look, consider the “Baby Doll”. A short mini hanging to the waist that can be worn with or without the matching bra and panties, the baby doll is usually made from some sheer, lightweight material with varying degrees of transparency. The baby doll lingerie style gets its name from; well…you figure it out!

Today, ladies lingerie is easier than ever to shop for. Do a search on lingerie and you’ll find a multitude of reputable lingerie dealers and merchants. Browse through their catalogs and you’re sure to find something that stirs your, um… interest.

Sizing is an issue that must be dealt with, and a good lingerie site will have size charts easily accessible. While lingerie is generally pretty forgiving size wise, (a lot of lingerie is marked one size fits all) you should know at a minimum if she’s a small, medium or large. If you see sizes like 32, 38, etc….why don’t you just ask her her size!

When shopping for lingerie, keep in mind that a gift of lingerie should stimulate both you and your partner. Get her something that you like, and don’t be afraid to push the envelope! Lingerie encompasses a huge variety of styles; from a couple of pasties and a thong, to an elegant satin and lace gown with matching bra and panties! Do not overlook the possibilities of Leather Lingerie. Leather has become mainstream and is not just for bikers and sado/masochists any more. Women love the feel of leather on their bare skin, and peeling off a tight leather teddy is a real treat!

Lingerie for your baby and you can’t lose! Give her a gift of lingerie, and you do yourself a favor! The gift that keeps on giving - all year round!

Lingerie Panties

Terry Richards asked:


Panties, like no other lingerie item has gained such blended reactions, with which, women have had a passion and hatred relationships since they were introduced. Transformed into an important foundation wear item through the centuries, panties have been the reason of embarrassment and sometimes ridicule, as easily as being seen as a signal of opulence, a nominal of wanton sexuality and often given as an private give to an ones lover.

Wealth of names for panties has moved to the forefront over the years. Tap panties, cami briefs, knickers, drawers, bloomers, pantaloons, pantalets, etc are among the many names used to refer to panties. . In short, panties have become sheerer and more stylish throughout the century; in fact white panties are among the most popular type of panties today.

In today’s lingerie marketplace a wide variety of panties exist. High-cut, or control top, are cut closer on the hip to imprecisely pull in and sculpt the stomach. Bikini cuts are cut traditionally, whereas the hip grips are undersized, like on those of beachwear. String Bikinis are comparable to bikini cut panties, but as a substitute of a thin hip grip, they have a small string, which occasionally ties around the waist rather than being pulled up over them.

Boyshorts often referred to as Sissy Panties illustrate a style of panty that has a reduced, thicker cut of cloth around the hips, making them look as if they are shorts.Today, panties are used primarily for clandestine hygiene, just like underwear. Certain panties are available in control top form, which function as a slim corset for women who have chosen to wear high cut skirts, or tapered style blouses.

Moreover, panties can be found in the forms of laced trimmed, non lace, clear straps, long leg, full figure, sheer, seamless, and more. In essence the panty mimics the form of a girdle that rests at just below the navel and covers ones bottom fully. Loads of women view this as the ultimate comfy panty style and are normally worn when noticeable panty lines and sheerness are not an issue. Additionally, high cut briefs have recently become a favorite panty selection.

Cotton, nylon, lace, lycra, satin, silk and/or a combination thereof, are among the many fabric panties are available in. Silk or satin panties have an astonishing feel and sensual sense. Satin which is not as expensive as silk, is much more resilient and easy to care for, and thus quite favored among panty buyers.

Bright in color, sexier, and flashier fashions of women’s lingerie were becoming accessible. More fabrics such as silk, lace, and satin began to be incorporated into the composition of women’s lingerie, making lingerie products; in particular panties more beloved by females and thus more attractive to males.

White panties which are the most popular panty color come in a variety of Fabrics. Lycra, lace, cotton, satin, and sheer are the amongst the most popular panty fabrics. **** white panties when incorporated with a white corset, bra, or other foundation garment are sure to enhance any body.

Lingerie Style question?

Thursday, April 10th, 2008
Ernest John Sanchez asked:


10 years ago satin lingerie was in. A satin bra with some seems and matching satin panty with seems and designs with a full coverage on the **** was considered ****. Now lingerie concentrates on lack of seems and less material. Actually you can rarely find satin lingerie. There are all of these microfiber flat materials that feel like a flower or a rubber band. They aren’t slick or shiny like satin was. What i want to know is Why has the style changed? Do women really like wearing thongs instead of a full brief? And guys what style did you find attractive? Personally I like lingerie styles from ten years ago than I do today. but that is just my opinion.

Complete Lingerie Buying Guide for Women

Wednesday, April 9th, 2008
Sandrine Vondrejs asked:


1. Research before heading to the store



Navigate on the net to see what styles and colors are available on the market. This will also help understanding what is “in style” this year. Below is a short description of the most commonly found styles of sensual lingerie. 

Corset: Garment designed to slim the waist and create cleavage, usually lacing or  clipping in the back.

 

Bustier: Form fitting top that looks like a long bra and covers the torso. Usually strapless but can also come with detachable garters.

 

Baby Doll: Short (often see-through) gown comprised of a bra top that flares down just under the bust and comes with a matching panty. Often comes with lace trim, ruffles, ribbons and bows. Innocent, but playful.

 

Chemise: Slightly flared or straight gown that follows the contour of the body.

 

Gown: Long loose flowing garment.

 

Teddy: Bodysuit-like that includes a camisole and panty in one piece.

 

Boy Cut/Boy Shorts/Brazilian: Panty that sits low on the hips and covers most (usually half) of the buttocks area. Extremely comfortable, boy shorts/Brazilian panties are also of the favorite picks by both men and women.

 

Thong: Underwear style with a thin fabric back that rests between the buttocks. This is your best option when wearing tight pants as they eliminate the panty line.

 

G-String: Similar to a thong, but with simply a string instead of fabric at the back.

 

 

 

 

2. Choose something that will make you look at your best!

 

You need to understand the pros/cons of the different styles out there, and how they can either be suitable, or not, for you. The goal here is to accentuate your best assets, while drawing attention away from your flaws. You need to feel at your best…like the goddess you truly are.

For tips on how to pick the right lingerie for your body figure, visit this previous article of mine: http://lingerieangel.wordpress.com/2007/12/28/choosing-the-right-lingerie-for-your-body-style/

 

 3. Pick the right size



Make sure you buy the right size. Don’t try fitting into something too tight, as you will feel, and probably also look uncomfortable. Wearing something too loose is also to be avoided as it will affect the way the lingerie item falls on you. Be honest with yourself, and don’t buy if it is not the right size just because it is on sale. Chances are you won’t wear it if it doesn’t fit you well. If the item includes a bra, keep in mind that you should normally use the middle clasp of the back-enclosure. This allows flexibility in case you ever put on/loose a bit of weight. 

 

 

 



4. Select the right color(s) for you



While the style and the size are important, one other crucial ingredient is the color. Most women know what colors make them look fabulous. Matching the colors to your hair and eye color will ensure a great fit. When in doubt, try it out. You will quickly be able to tell if this color is for you or not.

 5. Choose fabrics soft to the touch 

Try to go for fabrics that are luxurious on your skin. You are always safe when buying lingerie made out of silk, satin or velvet, but that doesn’t mean other fabrics should be ignored. Just ensure the fabric used in the ******* area is not too rough, and that you feel comfortable in it.

 6. Accessorize your outfit



For the hottest look in town, don’t neglect the accessories when shopping for your newest **** lingerie outfit. Stockings and high heels can give you a look to die for. Fishnets stays-ups and French seamed stockings are men’s favorites, and they never go out of style. Not only do they give you your legs a nice polished finish, they seem to be a turn on most men. 

 

 7. Take Your Time and Have Fun!



Lingerie shopping should be a fun experience. Remain open minded and dare trying on new things. There are tons of **** options out there… who knows! You may even enjoy a bit of role-playing. Also try putting on a bit of lipstick when trying on some lingerie. This should give a little plus to your look.

 

Lingerie shopping should not be done when you are rushed. Take your time, try on all the items that you think you may like, and don’t rush into buying something if you’re not sure. You wouldn’t want to invest into an item that will remain at the bottom of your drawer.
