Selecting Lingerie for Her

The first thing you want to think about when shopping for your lady is that you are shopping for HER, not you. That statement cannot be said enough. Just because you find something sexy and alluring that you want to tear off of her the moment she puts in on does not mean that she’ll like or, or feels comfortable in it. Remember, you may think that it is sexy as hell, but there isn’t a thong riding up your ass, so pleaseee, before you select something for YOU, remember it’s for HER, and with this in mind choose your piece(s) of lingerie carefully.  If she does not like it, or feel good in it, she’s not going to wear it. Don’t run out and get the most revealing, uncomfortable piece of lingerie known to man just because it is eye candy.

This will probably get your purchase used as a car towel or end up in the garbage can when you are at work. You want to ask yourself what would she wear. What does she like? What color suits her and best? Will she feel good and comfortable in this? This can be a very difficult task to say the least. However, knowing what types of lingerie are out there and what kinds she likes will very beneficial for you. So PAY ATTENTION!

The next thing to consider is the actual type of lingerie out there. You will want to make sure that you are finding what you are looking for and not just plain old panties and bras. You want something special that will suit her style and body. You will want to know the difference between a corset and a bustier. You might think there is none but there truly is. A corset is designed to cinch the waist and flatten the bust line to produce a specific amount of cleavage.

A bustier has bra like cups in it and does not have waist cinching. The difference between a Chemise and a Baby Doll is that a chemise is more conservative and a bit longer. The Baby Doll has bra like cups and is a bit shorter and more revealing. Baby Dolls often come with matching panties, as chemises usually do not. Then there are the teddies that are like a one-piece outfit. At SimplyDeliciousLingerie.com we hand selected each piece with every woman in mind, because as women, we know that what looks good on me, may not look good on you, someone else and vica versa. If you are not sure what would be the right choice, you can never go wrong with a sexy matching set. The bra and panty set is a great place to start with perhaps a matching satin robe.

So now you know the basic styles. Now you must know her size. Here is the most confusing part about lingerie shopping. There is more than one size type depending on the type of lingerie you purchase. When buying any lingerie that has cups in it you will have to know her bra size. This is the size that says 32 B, 36 D, 34 C, etc. This is critical to know or she will not fit into it properly and will not wear it. For all other types of lingerie you will have to know her shirt and dress size. You will want to know both the number and generic size. Look on her clothing to see if she is an 8, 10, 6, etc. then look on other articles to see if she wears a small, medium, or large. If you buy something too small she will think you want a smaller woman.

To buy something too big, she will think that you think she is fat…and if she thinks that, buddy I hate to tell you but you’re now in the dog house! You must have the right size so she knows you want her. Pay attention to HER needs. It’s not about YOU, after all it is about HER! Also by knowing her bra size it will eliminate getting a teddy or babydoll, fantasy costume, etc., that will be too tight and possibly rip after its first wearing. Yes, tight can look sexy, but we don’t want to bend over and have the entire ass rip out of your lingerie, why btw (by the way), is now no longer sexy at all.

Once you have decided on what style will suit her and make her feel comfortable, then now you need to think color. You need to be sure that this hides anything she feels is a flaw. An example would be if she is constantly complaining about her hips then you will not want to go with a teddy that outright exposes that area. Go through her draws and see what colors she likes. Pick out a color that enhances her eyes and skin tone. See what other lingerie she has. This will help you find the perfect style and color for her that she will enjoy. Take your time while shopping and don’t rush things.

My boutiques are open 365/24/7 so take your time! If you need help, contact Tantalizing Tina in our expertise fashionista section and write her for assistance! You can always ask for help if you are having a hard time finding what you are looking for. Always go with items that have adjustable straps. This will allow her to fit the garment right for her body.

Detachable straps are always good too, especially with corsets and bustiers. This will allow her to determine if she is comfortable with out the straps or is almost like two outfits in one. When buying matching panties you will want to know what style she wears and get that kind. For garters and stocking make sure you are positive she likes these and they have adjustable straps. If you still are not sure what to buy and this is your first lingerie experience, keep in mind, you can never go wrong with sexy matching sets. Tutus are a good way to make it fun! See the photo below. Most importantly have fun shopping and make it exciting for her. When done right, you can expect to go out again and again together, which is the best fun, and as your relationship grows, you’ll begin to learn what why is was that feel for him in the beginning.

wHy mEn LoVe SeXy LinGeRie…

Men  (and when I say men I mean 97% of them) stated recently in a poll that their ideal first impression of lingerie was extremely sexy and seductive. It certainly does skim over that forbidden zone, oh yes… that naughty place in one’s mind where they can fantasize for hours about the hourglass shape of the woman that they envision like a dream, and pursue like the dominator. Lingerie on a woman indicates a sense of confidence, and independence. Women aren’t afraid to wear it and show it off in a discrete way, that is. We don’t flaunt it, we wear it with pride.

All men are different in what they like and want but most like revealing and see-through outfits. Anything that will show the parts of a woman that he is not normally allowed to see is alluring to ones eye, and provocative to their inner thoughts. They also seem to love those items that accentuate the female body or have a girlish flare. I’ve always said, keep it simple. Men love flattering sexy and risky lingerie on a woman. Men are very tactile and visual. If he loves to touch it and he loves to look at it, then you can guarantee he loves you in it! Never go without cardinal rule #1 gals…Always remember to wear your high-heeled shoes. Oh yes, men love stilettos. This is what will pull the look together, and trust me when I say this….”you’ll leave an impression his mind hat he won’t forget!” It will be a vision that his mind will seduce.

What do they want to see women dressed  in you may ask?

1) Bras, G-strings, Garters, and Stockings: This may seem simple to the woman wearing it but it is a major piece of eye candy for the man who is looking at it. So why do they love these select pieces so much? Classy, Stylish and oh so seductive. With these pieces, you want to go with sexy and hot not comfortable. Men love the lace look and can’t get enough trying to peek through it. They love to be teased. Use the bad girl steamy colors like white, red, and black for that hot erotic look he will be drooling for. Other great colors are lavender, light blue, and peach. These colors are soft yet sexy and give that feminine edge men love to stare at. Be sure all the pieces match and are lace, even the garter belt. Get a pair of matching silk stockings to go with it.

 

2) Corsets/bustiers: There is not a man on this planet who would not want to look at a woman wearing either one of these. The corset slims the body and flattens your silhouette. The cleavage factor is definitely a huge turn on to guys. Add in a sweet little G-string or thong with a pair of thigh high stocking and you will have him reeling. The bustier is designed very similar but has cups like a bra. Many come with the detachable garter so stockings are a must. Colors to go with when thinking of guys are black, white, or red. These colors have that sexy bad girl look to them that just drives men absolutely to the breaking point. Other colors to consider are the sweet pastels. They take a hot outfit made for a woman and give it a girlish flare. It is this girlish flare that turns men right on.

3) Teddies: This is a one piece out fit with tiny spaghetti straps. It looks like a skimpy body suit. There is an array of styles available. The most appealing to men are the combination satin and mesh together in the same piece. That satin corset-look in the front with lace around the breasts with a sheer mesh in the back. When you turn around he will be able to see straight through. With this little number stick with white or black mesh and bold frontal tones that stand out and scream sexy. The hottest color schemes for men are white with tantalizing pastels, or black with hot bold colors like reds, blues, and purples.

4) Play outfits: You will drive the man insane with a play outfit. Men love to watch women dress up. You can always count on the naughty schoolgirl to shake him in his shoes. A sexy partially opened white tailored top that is tied at the waist. The plaid mini schoolgirl skirt with white garter and stockings is a winner every time. Another sure-fire winner is the naughty nurse. White mini Nurses dress with the hat and sexy pair of fishnet stockings. There are so many of these outfits to choose from you could keep him mesmerized for years. These types of out fits are fun and make men go gaga.

5) Negligee: This very simple little gown is a must for every woman who has a man at home. The two types men go crazy for is the sheer and the silky. A silk negligee satisfies a man’s need to touch something soft and supple. The sexiness of the gown is wonderful for then to look at as it accentuates all your curves. This will make him want to see and touch more and more. The sheer version of this is just plain hot. As the mesh lies draping your body the guy is now able to see all the places the fabric gets to gently touch. You can even add a lace bra and panty to tease him even more. With this outfit you will want to go with fun bright colors that grab his attention. If you are going with shear the standard white, black, and red are the sexiest.

Dating Over 40…Is the Grass Really Greener?

As women, we understand how difficult it is to meet someone and to begin dating again after having been married for a lengthy amount of time, or in a long term relationship with someone. Let’s face it, dating has never been the easiest thing to do, but in this day and age, it is so frustrating to listen to people telling you that you are way too picky, that you expect too much and that you should lower your standards of dating……but the good news is that you don’t need to “settle” for Mr. Right Now.Having a considerable amount dating experience under your belt actually gives you the practical skills you’ll need when Mr. Right does happen to wonder into your neck of the woods, whether it be a chance meeting at the dry cleaners, the supermarket or on the internet. It also opens your eyes to see what kind of weirdos and super freaks there really are out there!

They say….the more experience you have, the better you will be at weeding out the good men from the pool of men who aren’t right for you. I call the bad ones the bottom feeders, better know as a leech, slacker, someone with total lack of responsibility. Women who date frequently know this type and know when to cut their losses and say, “Next!” Savvy women respect that and move on. It’s women who don’t date a lot who tend to settle for less. No No No gals…..never ever just settle! This should be in a woman’s hand book somewhere. It’s in mine!You know that saying “less is more?” Not such good advice to follow in dating.

What I’ve learned is that it can be quite difficult enough for women over 40 to date, but it’s even more difficult for them to find good dating advice. Although I am no expert, I do have one piece of advice for women that fall into this category; The first step is for a woman over 40 to make sure to dress her age. For God sakes, don’t walk out the door for a date dressed in something that your daughter would wear…sure you may feel intimidated and worry that men are more interested in the younger women….and hey… maybe they are….However, you should not try to dress like them, you’ll just end up looking foolish and getting laughed at behind your back afterward. If you want to be respected, act your age, not your dress size.

 One great advantage with most women over 40 that I know is that they are often more comfortable with their bodies and more in touch with their sensuality than their younger counterparts. They shouldn’t be afraid to be sexual and amorous with the right man. There’s no need to play dumb to impress a man; the best way to impress him is to show that you’re his intellectual equal. You want to impress him after all. Have you ever stopped to think that maybe he wants to date you because he is looking for someone intelligent, with social skills, knowledge of culture, society, politics and wants a woman who can discuss what’s on the news…World News,…. not E-News! These younger women are like beautiful cars…..and men….well, they’re like boys, they want to take them out for test drives, but they would never consider parking them in their garages. Men may be flamboyant, arrogant, sexy, and alluring, but never stupid! He wants to see that you are all that and a bag of chips!

 Like a fine wine, with age comes maturity.This should help to set a woman’s mind at ease.This has also just set the bar higher for younger women looking to cross the line into our middle-aged turf!

 I say..”BACK OFF!” In the end, the “older” woman, with more life experience and wisdom beats out the younger woman who may be lacking maturity and poise. Although it’s a bit cliché, it is imperative that you just be yourself! I’ve never said that the older cannot date and or marry the younger or vica versa…I’m simply stating that the statistics show that most often it just doesn’t work out. A woman over 40 should be very proud of the life she’s lived, the experiences and insight she’s gained, the accomplishments and achievements that she has acquired and the person she’s become.

Oh sure, we always think that the grass is greener on the other side…in perspective, eventually that grass needs mowed too if it is not taken care of and nurtured properly! Life can be good at any age, over 40 for myself, YES… the grass has become much greener.  Why now? Because I have much more respect for myself and I am quite proud of who I am and my accomplishments. I’m educated and diverse in knowledge.Those who truly know me, will tell you that I am well-defined by my affluent conversational skills, my reputation, and that I am a true connoisseur of romance. I am unique and extraordinary. I love being 48. I wouldn’t want to go back to the 20’s or 30’s days now for anything. Love who you are, and be happy being “you!” Growing older isn’t supposed to be disappointing…our lives are just getting started. I consider this (Round 2.) I intend to age gracefully! Stay tuned, I’m not from the 50 mile marker and I intend to keep the dating over 40 and 50 articles coming your way! If you have any stories to share regarding this subject, please writ me, I’d love to hear about them; Michele@SimplyDeliciousLingerie.com

Granny Panties or Sex Appeal?

When you think of the word ‘granny panty’ what really comes to mind? I see my grandmother with curlers in her hair wearing a house robe in the back yard hanging up the clean laundry for all of timbuktu to see! The amount of material used in her one pair of granny panties could actually make my entire underware drawer of panties with all of that material. Why have things changed from those day and why are women so secretive about their under garments? Most men think women must wear thongs and g-strings. Guys, have you ever tried wearing these all day? It’s not as fun or as easy as you think.

 No matter what any man tells you about women wearing sexy panties, every woman has to have at least one pair of granny panties tucked away in her lingerie drawer that she likes to put on when thongs, and g-strings have reached their limits. Whether we choose to keep that little secret to ourselves or share with with everyone, or our partner, truth at hand is for some ungodly reason, we are all guilty of this!  Realistically, there are times where comfort is far more important than sex appeal. These are not sexy in any way, which is actually kind of sexy by it self. Listen ladies…when I say granny panties, I know what comes to mind…a woman’s pair of delicates that would fit an entire block of women…this is no longer what we think of as granny panties, in fact, times are a changing….

The plain old standard brief (or in today’s day and age the high-thigh high- rise bikini is the granny panty) which  has its role in every woman’s wardrobe.

 We wear these because we like them, not to make a fashion statement, or feel like a goddess of sex appeal, rather to feel “at home” in our home. These are also very handy for the monthly visitor. No one can convince any woman to ever get rid of her old faithful briefs. When no one else is looking or you are planning that night home alone why bother wearing those sexy thongs. You are just going to be lounging around and might as well be comfortable while doing it. Not to mention it saves on laundry. Just because you are choosing to wear granny panties, you do not have to wear some horrid ripped up old junk. There are plenty of pretty panties out there in the old brief or granny panty style. There is a lot to be said about having the old granny style in your drawers. They are comfortable and breathe well. So is this  a great asset to your underwear collection? Nope, not really…. but it is on those cerrtain occasions when you do not feel like wearing anything else.

When you are out for comfort these are the panties for you for sure! There are many types of material to choose from. You do not have to stick to basic cotton. The Lycra fabric is soft and form fitting to make you feel better on those uncomfortable days. They never give you a wedgie and make you feel cozy and warm. If you are still not feeling like sexy underwear but want some pizzazz you can try the satin granny panty variety. These have a nice cool feel when you slip them on. They also warm up on contact and just plain feel great. Sometimes there is just nothing better than a comfortable pair of underwear. Just because you would never show them to any man on the planet does not mean they need to be ugly. Get fun and even buy prints. There are so many possibilities it is not even funny. You can find a great pair of granny panties to replace those ones that have seen better days in your draw. Turn those into dusting rags girls and treat yourself to something new. Do I promote these type of panties? No, I own a lingerie shop where it is all about confidence and sex appeal, BUT I am a woman and if we cannot admit that we have a few secrets up our sleeves, we wouldn’t be the women we are. Do I own a few pairs of comfy panties? You betcha I do! You can’t wear sexy panties 24/7/ Would you wear your suits or work clothes 24/7? No. Comfort partakes a very large role in these actions. Regardless of our shape or size…every now and again we like our granny panties.

There comes a time and place that every woman realizes that comfort outweighs sexy by a lot. Men can’t see this, but we do.You can wear those sleek little thongs to heat up the bedroom when need be. However, why bother to wear them day in and day out and be uncomfortable. A great pair of granny panties can offer extreme comfort and no visible panty lines. Not to mention they offer extra support. This is a great feature of the granny panty all the time, but even better when that certain time of the month comes to call. The extra support can help with the bloated, crampy feeling of PMS. Granny panties make you feel more snug and secure during this time. The newer they are the better off you are for that extra control and comfort. Cotton is very comfortable but it wears out after washing repeatedly over and over. Don’t go crazy with granny panties. Please keep those Simply Delicious Lingerie items are alluring, appealing and sensual! We love sex appeal, but we desire comfort too!
