Self Love: Lingerie Edition

Practicing self love and self care has become a trend, and it’s a trend we wholeheartedly believe in.

How does lingerie relate? Well, lingerie is one of those things where, whether you’re a lover or not, it’s a part of your life every day. It can either be an everyday thing you do subconsciously, or you can use it to your advantage to show yourself some love.

So open your mind and your heart and let these lingerie tips truly resonate with you.

Take The Time To Get Fittings

Sure, we sound like a broken record, but we’ll never stop saying it. It’s important to get yourself professionally fitted, or at least measure yourself at home consistently. We’d recommend every six months to a year.

It’s not enough to just try on a bunch of bras until one feels okay. You deserve to make the time for yourself to discover your true size, and it really doesn’t take much time at all. You can then be informed when you shop and buy the perfect bras.

Don’t Dress For Others; Dress For You

A common misconception about lingerie, especially the sexier styles, is that they are designed specifically for romance or seduction and to please your partner.

While that’s fantastic if you use it that way on occasion, it’s not totally true and it’s not the way you should look at lingerie. Don’t say no to the frillies and the lace and the revealing because you don’t have someone to share it with. There’s so much power that can be found in indulging in something sexy because of how it makes YOU feel.

Decide What Sexy Is For You

As we just said, sexy lingerie can be a beautiful and simple way to make yourself feel good. But maybe lace and frills just aren’t the things that tickle your fancy, and that’s totally okay.

If you’re into the athleisure and sporty lingerie, the super simple and clean basics, or the super high fashion, don’t ever let anyone tell you what should and shouldn’t make you feel sexy. Define your own sexy, and embrace it completely. It’s so empowering to stay true to what speaks to your soul and your taste. Wear it with confidence and that instantly makes it sexy.

Just Buy It

How many of you have two or three bras in rotation that you barely wash and panties that are falling apart?

Invest in your lingerie drawer and realize that you deserve to wear beautiful lingerie that’s clean and serves your body and your wardrobe. That doesn’t mean you should blow all of your money on it – most of us just can’t do that.

There are so many amazing lingerie brands, such as Montelle, Parfait, and Calvin Klein that offer stylish and versatile lingerie at an affordable price. We’re very happy to serve you up a variety of brands and styles to suit your budget and your lifestyle.

Expensive definitely doesn’t always mean it’s the best for you.
