I Love Lingerie… Just for me
I love lingerie… Just for me.
There is nothing more sexy and playful than to wear a sinfully romantic lacy balconette bras and undies that is feminine and sexy. Wearing it under your jeans or suit, that fine lace next to your skin will uplift your mood and no one will know why. Lingerie becomes a real weapon of seduction.
By being raise in France, from an early age we start wearing cute little sets. I mean teenager budget here. And yet you can still buy that sexy little bras panty set that is all for you. Colors. Lots of colors and lots of cute patterns. Your head spins to all of it.
My fist fitting was at this quaint little store around the corner from where I used to live, actually it is still there. The owner asked me if my bras was fitted correctly and as I was answering her, she proceeded into my dressing room and made some adjustments. Once you are fitted properly, then the fun begins.
So you can only imagine my surprise when I moved to the States and things were not the same. Actually, no sales person would ever dare touch you or come into your dressing room. A very puritan approach to the whole thing. Lingerie it is used to seduce a man not for one self. Thus, as you peruse our department stores the only styles, utilitarian, and colors, beige / nude and black, are displayed. If you want some lace you must visit different stores, and all of the sudden it goes from sexy to vulgar, of course in my opinion.
I love lingerie. Let me share some with you.
From affordable styles to couture you can truly build a wonderful intimates drawer. Here are some of my favorites.
