What About for Me?

Now that you know a little more about the different styles,  read below and determine which is the best for you!  

Absolutely the right lingerie matters… Here's how to do coverage, correctly. Even though boudoir is about shedding layers, I do understand many women don’t want to show too much skin or they are concerned about parts of their body that they might not want to show off. Here are some tips to dress up and accentuate your body, boudoir style.

Legs Legs Legs...Lots of options. 

We all want long gorgeous legs. Here are a couple of tips for that! Look for high cut undies, teddies, bodysuits. The higher the leg opening the longer your legs will look. Also bring a pair of skin colored shoes with you. That will make your legs look even longer than they are.

Stomach... Yes, it can look perfect! 

Self-conscious about your stomach? Bustiers, Corsets, teddies, and beautiful shape wear all contour and define the stomach. A beautiful lace robe over a bra and underwear is a great choice. So is a plain white tank top and lacey undies. Stay away from mesh panels over the stomach, stick to lace or solid fabric there instead. 

Want to show off those hard earned abs and a little more skin? Bra and panty sets are a great option.  Things to think about are the style of panty you choose (the amount of coverage) and what type of bra suits you best. I know its tempting to pull out a bra you might wear every day – but try to look for something a little sexier, special. Something that is meant to be seen!  

If you are avoiding lingerie because you have some stretch marks or scars look for some more opaque materials, but stick with a style that will still show off your shape – like a bodysuit or a slip.

Breasts...Keep it Real! 

Whether you want to show them off or not they need some attention. Need a lift but don’t want to show too much skin? Bustiers are for you! They offer amazing support while giving you a little more coverage, all while flattering your shape.

So maybe you have had a baby, or lost some weight, etc… and you may feel you need some lift in the breast department.  I know most women are tempted to go straight for push up bras… but resist the urge.  Before you try on push-ups, look for demi cup bras, or underwire bras that offer strong support without adding too much size. This is typically more flattering proportion wise. Good support is more important than padding any day. This is not to say that there aren’t some good push up bras out there, just be really aware of how any bra fits and flatters.

Bottoms

Lets get to the bottom of this…. If a great tush shot is on your list, I recommend bottoms that show just enough, but not too much. I prefer cheeky or Brazilian bottoms over thongs. Many teddies and body suits are cut in the back to show off some tush. Those are a great option too! (beware of string teddies though – they don’t always flatter!)

What about my arms?  

Arms are sometimes a concern for women. Well, let’s ease that concern. Look for long sleeved body suits or throw a crisp white button down over some killer lingerie. Presto- no worry needed.

What if I don't want to wear lingerie?

Pajamas (the sexy kind) and loungewear (rompers, etc) make great choices for outfits. So do sweaters and cozy socks. You can also wear a sexy blazer, a cocktail dress, a suit or whatever else you feel sexy in!

What about props?

Hats, accessories, scarves, and masks are all great options. So whatever tickles your fancy, bring it!
