It’s important to have the right garments on underneath your clothes, if you want to wear them to their best advantage.

When you wear a bra that sags, underwear that’s too tight or too loose, have panty lines or are showing unattractive rolls of skin, it’s time to take a careful look at yourself in the mirror.

Rule One: Toss Out all Underwear Over Two Years Old.

Ladies underwear gets old, like our skin as it ages, the elastic loses its bounce and firmness. Whilst you may get used to them, the reality is that what you wear underneath your clothes has an effect on your confidence , self esteem and simply how sexy you feel as a woman.

So, if you haven’t bought anything new for a while, now may be the time to take a good look at your lingerie drawer and throw out those items that you never wear – or that you really shouldn’t be wearing!

When buying new, take advantage of tummy panels and other smoothing fabrics and supports available to give you the prettiest body and smoothest shape under your clothing. Even investing in just one supporting item can be great if you choose to wear it for parties and special occasions.

Rule Two: Buy a Bra that Actually Fits!

Curvy girls with a full figure can have a love/hate relationship with their underwire. It’s a necessary evil, the only thing that can properly hold the structure of our bras together, fits us best, yet it can be uncomfortable and every once in a while likes to poke out of the lining and jab you hard in the chest or ribs.

It’s important to find the proper fit, know how to buy the best style for you, but it is such an individual experience that it’s different for every woman, that the best advice is to go for a professional fitting.

Many department stores and others have specially trained staff who know how to size you and will help you dig through all the choices to find a selection for you to try.

It really makes a huge difference wearing the correct bra, so do yourself this favor and get it right!

Rule Three: Wear Nylons When Appropriate.

Weddings, funerals, job interviews, other formal occasions demand appropriate attire. When you need to look like a lady in every sense of the word, don’t pass on the stockings. They offer terrific benefits like toning and smoothing, so your dress or pants skim nicely rather than bunch up. A neutral or darker hose color helps co-ordinate your outfit and gives the illusion of longer legs. If you buy a brand like Spanx that really lock you in place, you can also appear to have trimmer thighs and legs.

Bonus: you’ll extend the life of your shoes by wearing hosiery rather than bare feet.

Rule Four: Wear Pajamas You Don’t Mind the Firemen Seeing!

Sleepwear is a personal choice, and optional, too! Whether it’s flannel or satin, as long you are cozy and comfortable, then by all means wear it to bed. If your bed mate doesn’t object to that hideous, stained oversized tee shirt, then wear it. Just remember, lots of emergency situations can pop up at night, and you should think twice about what you wear to bed in case you ever have to rush out of it in a hurry.

Rule Five: Curvy Girls Can Be Sexy, Too.

Don’t be inhibited by all the sexy lingerie the skinny chicks wear. You have a gorgeous body, with fabulous curves and soft skin.

When it comes time to show off your sultry side, plus size women have many options, including a number of designer ranges just created for plus sizes. From elegant night gowns to pretty, detailed bridal corsets right down to fantasy or Hallowe’en costumes and really racy ‘for-his-eyes-only’ kind of stuff… the choices are almost endless.

The joy of online lingerie shopping is that you can pick and choose without judgment, have it shipped and if you don’t like it, you can usually return it to the store, within a certain period. It’s worth a look, and you will thank yourself every time you look at your own reflection in the mirror.

So, don’t be afraid to pick yourself a few daring and colorful styles and designs – expressing your fashion personality in your lingerie, will help you to be big, bold and daring in your life.

Go for it!
