Lingerie For 2010

Have you seen the latest trends for 2010 in lingerie? Once again underwear is being worn as outerwear, but you do have to be very brave to wear this look. Celebrities seem to be embracing this trend, and some of them are even wearing black over the knee stocking held up with suspenders, which looks very cute on the right person. These stay-up stockings are being seen as street wear.

Some of these designer stockings are really amazing, for instance, I've seen some with lots of diamond shaped cut outs on them. The stockings can also be worn up higher on the leg, ending just below the hemline. That length can be worn with shorts, once again with the suspenders showing. Paris Hilton has been seen wearing this look, along with garments in camouflage colors, which is also a big fashion trend this season.

Other hot trends for 2010 have women wearing bras on the outside of their clothes. Other women wear a very layered look with lots of see-through garments, layered on top of each other. We are also seeing a lot of see-through lace garments for 2010. They are extremely feminine and soft looking, but definitely won't keep you warm on a cold day. Maybe it's time to scour through the vintage shops once again, looking for the see-through and lace garments so you can be on trend for 2010.

Corsets and Bustiers are so on trend for the 2010 season, so wear them on the outside, maybe with a beautiful see-through lace shirt over the top worn open. Think flowing fabrics, think feminine and soft and layered and you will be on your way.

Sexy Lingerie - For Angels and Devils in Red, White, Black & Blue

There are materials that can drive men wild, call it a fetish or what ever you choose, there is an inevitable attraction - lace, leather, satin, skin and metal are some. Men are attracted to certain feel and textures, be it the HD Hot Rod he rides or the lingerie he touches and honestly, who can be blamed when it is hormonally genetic? According to sex survey among courting and married couples on bedroom sexuality, one of the most frequent complaints from the men is that the women in their lives are reluctant to wear sexy lingerie though most of the men voiced the idea that wives and girlfriends wearing sexy lingerie and thematic undergarments/ garments (Babydoll, Maid, Pole Dancer, Belly Dancer) as one of their most erotic fantasies.

With any average office going woman, sexy lingerie as a day-to-day wear has only been an occasional option unless there is a lot more happening at work. All it takes is to buy a set of underwear that fits both the body and the wallet - perhaps a matching bra and panty set to wear under your work clothes. No one else knows what you're wearing, but you!

After all not all would desperately want to look 'sooo' sexy in revealing underwear at the workplace, and so long as it is well hidden and under you clothes, as that is the usual logic, you might not care what you are wearing. And so far as no one else need ever know what old lingerie you're wearing, you might be imagining it to be comfortable wearing what ever you are wearing or don't ever give it much thought, in spite them being old, out dated and worn out. Then, your lingerie needs to be completely reworked. So like many other women who don't, let me conclude, you never knew how sexy lingerie could work for you, perhaps even change your life for good!

This might sound like a old wine marketing technique now delivered in new bottle, but it still holds true - even if it is just about your panty or your bra. Psychologists say, whether or not you reveal how sexy you look underneath, what you wear can have a definite say on your confidence level, day in and out. Have you paid attention to your attitude on days you wear your new underwear? Haven't you felt all the more feminine? More attractive, even if it might not always show? More confident, because only you know have underneath? Sexier and more? Though we are not advocating flirting since you might be feeling sexier in sexy lingerie (which you might be tempted to do) you sure would feel a surge of confidence in the total package that makes you - your inner garments complementing your outer wear and giving way to a positive, healthy on-top-of-the-world attitude in you. In short, well fitting and admirable sexy lingerie is a feminine life style choice, just like good food, fashion, moderate living, exercising and sleep, it too can have an effect on your emotional quotient.

The truth is that women love sexy lingerie just as much as the men though workplace equations, family responsibilities, day to day stresses, and worries would comprehensively shut thought from flirting any where around lingerie. And it is not a mistake as long as you have at least experimented with the idea of wearing sexy lingerie at least on special occasions with your boy friend or hubby, when you are sure to have them seen and felt? If you haven't, you have limited and confined yourself from something so temptingly simple, explore-able even if you do not intend to write a thesis, affordably sexy and holds the promise of hours of fun, at least in bed.

Any woman can truly express herself through her intimate apparel though at the beginning it might take some experimentation with materials, textures, designs and cuts to find that subtlety or boldly highlights for your smooth curves and that which allows your feminine side to glow or your sexy and seductive emotions to romp, or the innocent and naughty you to shimmer. It is your time to play the Angel or the Diva or a bit of both with sexy lingerie. Regardless how confident or not you feel about your body, sexy lingerie is the best way to begin being your naughty and confident self again though once you start wearing sexy lingerie, you may never want to get out of it again.

Lingerie Basics

Lingerie has been an important aspect of women's clothing for centuries. It was originally designed to alter the shape of the body in order to adapt to fashion trends; in more recent decades it has developed into a fashion industry unto itself. Tens of millions of dollars are spent each year in this country alone on women's undergarments, and the industry continues to grow.

Lingerie is sold through a host of different style retailers. One of the most common ways to buy these items is through a local department store, or specialty retailer. Most major department stores will have an entire section dedicated to women's undergarments. They often carry only the most popular styles and as such are relatively "tame" in their selection, which is where specialty retailers commonly had the advantage.

Most shopping malls in America will be home to at least one lingerie specialty store. These businesses are the ideal way to find the latest in undergarment fashions and they often carry items that would be otherwise difficult to find at the average department store. Many women find these stores to be the best place to find what they need and the staff is generally well trained as well.

Of course, there are always online sources for purchasing just about any women's undergarment you can think of. These online retailers often have an advantage in that they commonly carry a much wider selection of items from which to choose, and shopping can be done from the convenience of your home of office. However, they do have downside as well, in that you are not able to physically inspect any items before purchasing. Sizing items is also more difficult as there is no way to see if it fits beforehand.

Catalogs are also a good source for finding women's lingerie. Most catalogs are associated with a "brick and mortar" business, but this isn't always the case. However, as with online retailers, catalogs do not allow one to try anything on or physically inspect any garment before the actual purchase. They can, however, give you a good idea of what's available before you visit a local lingerie store.

Five Key Pieces of Lingerie You Need For Your Honeymoon

Your honeymoon symbolizes the beginning of you and your partner's life together. Whether you are going away for two weeks or a simple weekend, you want to have a few key pieces of lingerie to make this an extra special event.

1. Wedding Night Lingerie - You don't have to wear white lingerie but you probably want to. White lingerie is symbolic and incredibly sexy for your first evening spent together as a couple. Sheer, satin, lace or Lycra, the sexier the better. If you are the more conservative gal, then perhaps a baby doll with a ruffle back thong under will suit you. If you are a bit more daring then go all out with a garter belt, thigh highs, cut out bra and a G-string. This is one outfit that your partner will actually pay attention to and remember for many years.

2. Chemise - This can be even a simple one. You just need a sexy garment to put on while you're getting ready to go out or perhaps when you get out of bed to walk out to your balcony for fresh air. It is much sexier then wearing an old t-shirt like you probably do at home.

3. Leg Garter - These are a wedding tradition. You wore one (hopefully) during the wedding and it is a tradition to wear one on your wedding night. If you happen to find a leg garter that you absolutely love that does not match your wedding night lingerie, no worries, you can wear it another night. Perhaps your leg garter paired up with your husband's favorite tie will be your outfit for the evening?

4. Boyshorts - These boy inspired undergarments are a must. They are sexy by themselves or paired up with a tank top they are ideal for just lounging around the hotel room. These come in every color, pattern, style imaginable and every honeymoon should include them.

5. Bra Set - You should have at least one sexy bra and panty set to wear under your clothes that will be shown later after you come back to your hotel after sightseeing all day.

If your partner is like most men, they probably will not remember a lot of outfits you will wear throughout your marriage unless they are incredibly sexy. Your wedding night lingerie is one particular outfit that will stand out in their head as a distinct memory though so make it the sexiest outfit you feel comfortable wearing for an unforgettable evening together.

Calvin Klein 365 Bras - How Fashion and Fit Are Perfectly Joined

Calvin Klein is a fashion legend in a dozen areas. But, of course, the brand is nowhere better known and respected than in underwear. Who can forget those memorable ads? Well, CK has something going for it that is much better than just great marketing. Fashion, fit, and an indefinable something that grabs you and never lets you go. The line of Calvin Klein 365 bras are a great proof of that.

The Calvin Klein 365 Cotton Stretch Push Up Bra is just one item that lends weight to that view. The name might signal that you could wear it every day of the year. Or, it could mean that the fashion continues 360 degrees all around, plus five more to move you ahead. Calvin Klein always gives 100% plus more, no?

But whatever the name means, the style is unmistakable. The 95% Cotton and 5% Elastane blend means unbeatable comfort, too. One look and you'll see how these two are perfectly joined. Firm padding with graduated foam gives you unmatched enhancement that is oh, so good to the touch. Slender straps, configured in halter, cross-back, or regular style pair with an elastic band that completes the look and feel.

Of course, the Calvin Klein name itself is fashion magic, as well. The Calvin Klein 365 Cotton Stretch Logo Bra shows that easily. Printed jersey cotton gives a style that is fun, fun, fun all the way. Lightly padded cups with a plunge neckline show how fun and fashion are natural partners.

But this model is only getting warmed up with those elements. Slender, super-comfortable detachable straps are the next item to make you swoon over this bra. Detach them at the rear and create a halter silhouette that creates chic fashion as it gives you convenient function. The band offers branded trim to show you how the CK name easily becomes part of a graphic design to make this bra stand out.

The Cotton Stretch concept is very flexible, too. CK shows you how with the Calvin Klein 365 Contour Bra model. Calvin Klein styling is immediately evident in the lighthearted print that is sure to make this bra one of your favorites. Pink straps offset the white-background/colored print perfectly.

Then, the designers raised the ante by adding numerous functional elements that integrate perfectly with the superb styling. Light foam lining gives natural-looking enhancement that feels like sleeping face-down on a pillow. Slim, branded straps add style which can be worn regular, halter, or cross-back for the flexibility you need. Then, they added an underwire that adds support that is never uncomfortable.
