Tips to Find Your Personal Lingerie Style
Ladies! We are the first to admit that finding and refining personal lingerie style can be a struggle. Lingerie is one of the prettiest parts of your whole outfit. A cute and sexy lingerie can definitely improve your mood and make your day awesome. I know, nothing makes you feel confident than dressing well. Dressing well doesn’t mean wearing expensive clothes or heavy accessories but it does mean a flawless outfit. And the base to a flawless outfit will definitely depend on what choices you make for your lingerie picks.
Well, you don’t need to worry anymore! Because by knowing your personal style, you can make your lingerie shopping a lot easier. Here are our top tips to find your personal lingerie style:
1. Know the options available:
Before choosing your favorite lingerie, get information about the different types of lingerie available. Here are some of the most popular lingerie that are on point:
Bodysuit:
A one-piece set contains both bra and underwear. Also known as a teddy, this bodysuit is perfect for special days or for layering under outfits.
Corset:
This is one of the vintage garments out there – clings to the body and enhances the figure, giving you a perfect hourglass silhouette.
Chemise:
A short dress that looks gorgeous when worn with matching thongs.
Romper:
This is just like a playsuit. It’s a one-piece set that includes shorts. This romper is perfect for a playful casual look.
Bralette:
These look best on smaller busted women. These bras come without an underwire and often have lace detailings to make it look sexier.
Bustier:
A bra top that goes all the way till the belly and flaunts the bust effortlessly.
Robe:
Robes are available in short or long length. It can be worn depending on preference. Available in luxurious fabrics such as silk, velvet and satin. This can be even styled as an outfit in the form of a wrap dress!
2. Personal style & comfort:
There are a lot of things that look great on models, but not on you. When it comes to choosing lingerie for yourself, spend money on pieces that you will be comfortable wearing and those that are in line with your personal style. Even if you buy lingerie to surprise your love, make sure you feel good in it first. You can flaunt only when you’re truly comfortable in it.
If you’re a newbie to lingerie, start with a few cute sets and some lacy items in basic colours that will look good. On the other hand, if you already have the basics, try something a little spicy & wild this time maybe a red, satin, or a silk gown.
3. Your body type:
In lingerie, there’s no one size that fits all. You have to buy lingerie according to your body type. Team smaller side, there are lots of options for you- go for an underwire demi cup bra or a padded one with some sexy lace details to give yourself a fuller look. Ruffles are another boon for petite women.
If you’re naturally blessed with beautiful curves, you should definitely highlight your curves. Go for a full cup bra to support your busts or maybe a sheer chemise that will help you cover the tummy while allowing you to flaunt your gorgeous cleavage.

4. The occasion:
Just like you wear different outfits for different occasions, there are different lingerie styles for each occasion. For those nights where you just want to watch TV and have a cup of hot chocolate, a cute bodysuit is perfect. For your everyday wear, you can invest in some nice t-shirt bras and underwear sets in basic colours like nude, white, and black that will go well with all your outfits.
If you have a special occasion coming up such as Valentine’s Day, your anniversary, or a weekend getaway with your partner, it’s best to choose something wild and spicy. I know classic black looks good on any woman but still, don’t be afraid to try new fabrics and colours such as gold, red, or even violet.
5. Remember season matters too:
Yes you heard it right — a change in season definitely needs a change in lingerie. The cold winters are a good time to invest in heavy pieces. In fact, bodysuits are perfect when paired with your warm winter collection and even stockings look a lot classier than regular tights.
And summers are for lighter, breathable clothing, right? So yeah, the same rule applies to lingerie too. Fabrics such as cotton, lightweight jersey, and lace are all best bets to beat the heat. Also, since summer is the time to flaunt your body in cute tank tops and strappy outfits, you have to make sure to have some nice and cute lingerie underneath to show off. Try bold colours such as neon. C’mon! Summer is all about fun, and neon is on point now.
Ladies, at the end of the day, the most important point to remember is shopping for lingerie is to have fun. Don’t always buy the same old styles, rather try different styles and see what you’re comfortable with and what suits you the most. You know what’s the best part no matter what your body shape, when it comes to lingerie, there’s something out there for every body type so you can easily find something to make yourself feel gorgeous and special. So have enough confidence and flaunt your amazing body and have fun.
