Rethinking Seductive and Sexy Lingerie

When the topic of lingerie is brought up, you might cringe a bit about your personal collection. Many women go wrong with lingerie because they try to be something they are not.

There are times when we all want to be particularly sexy. Indeed, this is why lingerie exists. That being said, you have to realize what makes you sexy when it comes to dressing seductively. Simply put, you have to know yourself.

Let's assume people view you as beautiful, but in a sweet and innocent fashion. An example would be Jennifer Anniston. Buying lingerie with leather and latex could work in certain situations, but probably is not going to in most cases. Instead, you want to highlight you strengths. With a sweet and innocent look, this means going with softer materials and colors, but cut to reveal your assets.

The sexy thing about lingerie is not what it shows so much as what it promises. It can enhance your sexy side by riding high on hips, draping down only half way of your stomach and so on. The particular approach you take does not really matter so much as you shop to focus on your strengths.

Now consider the opposite. A woman who has a sharp, strong look with a strong personality is not going to be able to pull off the innocent look. Let's use Angelina Jolie as an example. Smoking and sultry looks are what one should go for with this look. Black and red are fire colors and would be perfect. Tight fits and cuts will also emphasize the look. In contrast, an effort to look innocent and sweet would be possible, but very difficult. Pulling off the sweet, innocent, yet sharp and strong looks is nearly impossible!

Far too often, women discuss lingerie as though it is all one thing. It is not. Do all dresses fall into the same style? Do all bathing suits? How about skirts? No! Neither does lingerie. There is a style within a style when it comes to lingerie and this should be viewed as a good thing. After all, it lets you put together looks that match your strengths. The key is to recognizing this is the goal. If you match your lingerie look to your personality and body strengths, you will feel sexy and there is nothing sexier than a woman who feels sexy.
