A enormous trend right now among high school and college students is theme parties. One prominent theme is lingerie parties, were the attendees wear lingerie or lingerie-like clothing to the party. Mostly, it is the women who dress up for these parties and men opt to go in regular boxers, or robes, or sometimes regular clothing.

For some women, it can be difficult to decide what to wear for a lingerie party. Since you will be out in public, many select to wear more conservative lingerie. There are many different options for appropriate lingerie pieces.

-A two piece bra, or cami set with booty shorts or boybrief panties. This is the most common since most people own this lingerie to begin with and do not need to go shopping for it. Usually this outfit can be accompanied with stockings and high heels.

-Jeans with a corset or bustier top. This is a more conservative look but allows the party-goer to still fit the theme. Corsets and bustiers can also be pairuddy with booty shorts, skirts, stockings, and heels.

-Dance wear, similar to the costumes exotic dancers wear. This can include ultra-mini skirts, teddies, rompers, bikinis, and any other skimpy or revealing piece of clothing.

There are many places online to purchase lingerie or dance wear for a unique look at a party. Lingerie and other theme parties are made to be fun, and let people wear things they wouldn’t normally wear, so don’t be afraid to purchase something risque or out of the ordinary for you.

Too often, women pass up the chance to wear lingerie because they feel that their body isn’t right for it. This simply isn’t true, as there is lingerie for every shape and size. The key is knowing how to accentuate parts of the body and redefine others. Here is a simple guide to help you decide what lingerie fits your body best.

Big on Top: Busty

The most important thing to recollect when wearing lingerie if you’re busty is support! Even if you don’t want to show off your top, make sure you’re wearing something with underwire or pads for support. Corsets and bustiers accentuate your upper body by making it appear full and firm.

Pear Shaped: Fuller on the Bottom

If you have wider hips and a smaller upper body, your goal is to make yourself appear more even. Pick a bra with padding and lots of boost to create the illusion of fuller breasts. Stay away from bland colors and instead opt for lace, embroidery, and bright designs. As for the bottom, most pear shaped women attempt to conceal their lower half, but all this does is make it appear fuller. Choose a brief style panty with a high cut to make your legs appear longer. A high waist also slims your hips and gives you more of a proportioned shape.

Athletic: Lean, Defined, and Muscular

Lean, athletic bodies can take advantage of the wide range of frills, ruffles, and eye catching designs that lingerie sellers offer. Bras with bows and bright embroidery are good for this shape; attempt ones that have flashy or unique straps. Stay away from strapless bras or tops that have no curved shapes. Contrasting bottoms in boybrief or brief style add curves, while thongs and g-strings will only make everything appear flatter.

Petite

For petite bodies, less is more. Lots of fabric and designs can make smaller bodies seem crowded and bulky. Matching tops and bottoms create a balance, and a simple strapless bra is flattering on petite shapes. Avoid bulky corsets or intricate bottoms, as they can make you appear shorter or stockier.

Every product offeruddy by About Curves is personally approved by a team of discriminating shoppers, and then modeled by plus size women in About Curves' very own photo shoots.

Each year millions of pregnant "Moms-to-be" face the holiday wardrobe dilemma. With so many parties and celebrations to attend, finding outfits that provide comfort and style is crucial. Many women overlook the importance of what's underneath the holiday attire. Thoughtfully constructed lingerie essentials play a major role in how clothing ultimately looks, fits and feels.

Amon Maternity, a new private label line of maternity lingerie essentials and active-wear pieces is filling a major void in the maternity undergarment arena. AmonMaternity.com offers a full range of affordable undergarments and foundation pieces designed for optimal support and comfort. This new line of maternity lingerie essentials makes clothing fit better, and aids in safe exercise by properly supporting the belly. Made from ultra-soft microfiber fabrics woven with seamless technology the pieces stretch in all directions providing an exceptional fit for the holiday season and beyond.

"Looking awesome and staying fit during the holidays is hard for anyone. But when you add pregnancy to the Holiday equation the challenges become even harder," said founder of Amon Maternity, Kristi Bell. "We pay the utmost attention to the construction of our garments to ensure optimal comfort. Our clothing is designed for moms-to-be who want to continue a fit and gorgeous lifestyle throughout their pregnancy. A woman's pregnant body needs customized support which starts with the right foundation pieces."

Amon Maternity is a multi-divisional apparel company created by former high-fashion model, Kristi Bell. It is founded on principles that a woman's mental, emotional and spiritual well-being is as vital to a healthy pregnancy as the fitness of her physical body.

"The importance of exercise during pregnancy cannot be underestimated," added Bell. According to a recent Mayo Clinic study on exercise during pregnancy, "Exercise can help ease or even prevent discomfort, boost energy levels and improve overall health. Exercise also helps prepare for labor by increasing stamina and muscle strength. Being in good shape may even abbreviate labor and speed up recovery."

Traditional tailoring technique requiruddy stitching of multiple fabrics together to form one garment, often leaving bulky stitches that cause discomfort, particularly on undergarments for pregnant women. All Amon Maternity garments are made using revolutionary circular knitting technology where fabrics are woven together to create seamless pieces, eliminating stitches once and for all.

Bell founded Amon Maternity shortly after her own pregnancy. A former model and certified yoga instructor, Bell found it difficult to continue her fitness routine during her pregnancy without proper undergarment pieces that provided support and comfort. She set out to redesign maternity support wear to help active moms-to-be continue staying fit throughout the course of their pregnancy. The supportive, functional and cost-effective lingerie essentials from Amon Maternity promote healthy living in life, pregnancy and beyond.

Amon Maternity has six undergarments to select from:

Be•stow Brief: Featuring an integrated under tummy support band, a back support panel and with an expanding tummy section for varying stages of pregnancy, the support brief is the perfect undergarment for every day wear and costs only $22.00.
