Lingerie - Accentuate Your Best Features

Most women flirt with the idea of wearing sexy lingerie once in a while, either to spice up a night with your special someone or to add some flavor to your wardrobe. Whatever a woman's reason is in buying lingerie, the most important thing every woman should remember is that you should feel comfortable in what you are wearing and at the same time feel and look gorgeous and wonderful.

Like with other dresses, not everyone will look great in the same piece of lingerie. The key in choosing the style that best fits you is to accentuate your best features. Here's the scoop on how to find the best style for your body type.

Small Bust:


The best style of lingerie for you is those that show off more of your legs and your lower body to take away the emphasis on your breast size and upper body. You can also wear stockings and garters to accentuate your legs. To create an illusion of bigger breast, you should wear an underwire bra with a demi cup to help lift up your cleavage while still making them look natural at the same time.

Large Breasts:

If you are well-endowed in the chest area, you should find lingerie that provides great support. Bras with an underwire cup can provide great support and enhance your cleavage at the same time. A cowl-neck slip will also look great on large-breasted ladies because it accentuates your chest area without showing too much skin and cleavage. Halter tops are also great for top-heavy women because it accentuates the shoulders and collar bones. They give a sexy silhouette without showing too much cleavage.

Pear-Shaped Body:

Having a pear-shaped body means that you have a smaller upper body but curvier and heavier lower body. Babydolls and empire-cut nightgowns will look great on pear-shaped women because the flowy and loose fitting skirt plays down the heaviest part of your body. You can also opt for sheer to show off your sexy legs. If you want to accentuate your upper body, wear lingerie pieces with tiny straps, such as a babydoll with spaghetti straps, or go with strapless pieces.

Curvy, Full-Figured Body:


If you are blessed with a curvaceous, full-figured body, you are lucky indeed for almost all styles look good on your body type. A scoop-neck, empire-cut, or a-line nightgown in tulle or chiffon will look great on a full-figured body. Dark colors and solid patterns accentuate your curves in all the right places.

Boyish Body:

If your curves are a bit more shy and don't show them self, the best way for you to enhance your silhouette is to wear some bold colors and patterns to give more shape to your figure. Babydolls with lace and ruffles will definitely touch up those curves. One thing you should remember is to not wear lingerie too loose or you may lose the figures you covet.

Petite:


Petite women should find a style of lingerie that shows more of your legs to give you a vertical boost. Showing more of your lower body, legs in particular, will add an illusion that you are at least an inch taller. Chemises and empire-cut negligee that sits just above your knees will be perfect for a petite figure. Avoid long nightgowns because they will make you look shorter than you really are.
