Undercover Top 10: Lingerie

Undercover-Top-10-Lingerie

By Tracy Anne Navratil.

Today’s view on the term ‘sexy’ has been skewed...to say the least. The other day I was shopping at a local lingerie boutique when a woman proceeded to thrust in my face thongs with cherries and skull and cross bones on them. She told me they were the best selling items. I hope she lost her job that day.

Lingerie is the ultimate challenge, mainly because many women today are not satisfied with the way they look. Put them in next to nothing, and they are not going to feel any better. But here is the thing many women today don’t understand: fashion rules don’t always apply in bedroom wear. Less is not more. On the other hand, just like layering is the current key to dressing, it also is the same for lingerie. To be blunt, if it takes longer to take off it’s just going to make him hotter for you. Lingerie can’t save the world, get you that raise you’ve been begging for, or even fix your car that wont start...but it may save your sex life.

We are women, when we were little we played dress up in our mothers closet, now it’s time to play in our own. Lingerie is an outfit that takes as much time and preparation as getting dressed for a night out. Let’s take the time and effort to really feel sexy, not for men - for ourselves. Try on a corset for a change, it can cinch the waist, giving you that sexy hourglass body you’ve always wanted.  Burlesque star Dita Von Teese spoke of corsets in an interview for Glamour.com as being “the holy grail of lingerie” - it may be time we start following her advice. Add on nylon stockings attached to garters, and top it off with a sexy silk kimono to seduce anyone under your spell.

Take your own creativity into the bedroom as well. Many of us cannot relate to the sexual appearance of the tanned, blonde, bombshell look of Baywatch babes or Playboy Bunnies. On the other hand, we can express ourselves and our own fantasies and desires through costume and glamour. Instead of putting on a bra and panty set from Target, look down and be proud of something a little more exotic and romantic that you have taken the time and effort to put together. I promise in return you will feel sexier than you could ever imagine.

This top 10 only includes 9 items. The 10th is all left up to your imagination.
