Lingerie Buying Guide For Valentine’s Day

Love is in the air as February 14th quickly approaches, better to purchase early than wind up with supermarket flowers.  Alongside those flowers or something more subdued, lingerie can be a awesome gift to raise the heat in a relationship.  For men purchasing lingerie can be tricky and in this post I will attempt to give you advice and tips for choosing the right type and style.  Women too, can give the gift of lingerie and simply wear it as a gift.  Depending on your combined tastes you will want to select from one of the following styles

 

. Flocked Hearts BabyDoll & Matching G-String Baby Dolls - Baby dolls are made of sheer fabric, and consist of shaped bra cups with an attached loose-fitting skirt that comes down to anywhere between the navel and the hips. They generally have matching panties.  Baby Dolls are the staple lingerie item.  When most people think about lingerie they are most likely thinking about this style.  Longer less sheer baby dolls are perfect for the woman who is looking for a little more coverage, while the sheer and brief styles work awesome for the uninhibited.  Baby dolls look especially good on women with larger busts.

Bouquet Rose Lace Deep V Bodystocking Body stockings - A body stocking is a one-piece snug-fitting undergarment for women, generally made of nylon that covers the entire torso.  These can be a little hard to get in and out of, which you may find to be fun or to be a chore, you may just wind up tearing it off anyway.  Unless you have done the lingerie thing with your partner a bunch of times, however, I would not recommend this style.

Sexy Satin Bustier Bustiers -A bustier is a sleeveless woman’s top, generally strapless, that hangs from under the breasts to the waist. sexy bustiers can be worn as either evening wear, or as lingerie.  The bustier helps you achieve that desirable hourglass shape. It tightens the waist and lifts the breasts. With a matching panty you have a hot setup for the evening.

Satin Flocked Floral Corset Set Corset - A corset is a foundation garment which is stiffened, generally with bone, possibly elasticized, and laced in the back. Much like the bustier, it is designed to lift and support the breasts and reduce the size of the waist, but since it is stiffer and generally laces up it is able to take this to the next level. It may also have attachments at the bottom to hold up stockings.

Mini Daisy Lace Cami, Stockings and Thong Set with Ruffle Lace Trim Camisoles - A camisole is a woman’s undergarment with shoulder straps that covers the bust and hangs down to the waist, either tight-fitting or loose. A Camisole generally shows the belly area so it is perfect for women whose stomach is one of her best features.

Woven Hearts Lace Deep V Teddy With Ruffle Trim And Rhinestone Heart Buckle Teddies - The teddy is much like a one piece bathing suit.  Or you could think of it as a one-piece undergarment, consisting of a chemise and panties combined.  Like in swimwear there is a lot of variation with some of these one pieces having the sides cut out.  Teddys provide good coverage but should be avoided by brief women who may find it hard to find the right size which will cause it to ruffle.

Lingerie - A Girl’s Buying Guide

Have you ever walked past the lingerie store in the mall and just felt too intimidated to go in? You are definitely not alone. Many women do not feel comfortable going into intimate apparel stores and trying on and buying sexy, sheer undergarments. The good news is that the process does not have to be stressful or intimidating. By simply keeping these few things in mind you can walk into a lingerie store with authority and purpose, and walk out with the perfect looking and fitting piece.

• If you are the shy type, consider taking a friend along with you for your shopping spree. This can make the discomfort easier to overcome and actually turn shopping for intimates into an enjoyable time. It is also a awesome opportunity to spend quality time with girlfriends since most men do not typically like to accompany women to on lingerie shopping excursions.

• Get dressed up before you head out. Looking your best often helps you feel your best. This will in turn boost self confidence, making you more apt to do things that maybe you would not ordinarily do, like purchase lingerie.

• Make sure to find out ahead of time what type of lingerie is best for your body in the way of style, fabric, and color. This can eliminate the need to attempt on multiple styles and types of pieces just to find the right fit and look. This one tip can significantly reduce frustration and time.

• Look for pieces that you think are sexy. Odds are if you find the piece visually appealing, it will make you feel attractive when wearing it.

• Try to keep in mind what you think the person you may be buying the lingerie for may find appealing. Nothing says I love you and am attracted to you more then donning sexy lingerie. Men are very visual by nature so seeing their love in a gorgeous garment can do wonders for the intimate life and the relationship.

• Determine your budget before heading out to the lingerie store. By knowing what you can spend, you can better determine which stores are best to shop in. There is nothing worse then finding something you fall in love with but it is a bit more than you wanted to spend. Consequently, you purchase it anyway, overspending your budget and ultimately feeling a bit guilty. This series of events can really take the pleasure out of wearing your new purchase.

• Buy your lingerie on-line. If you just do not feel comfortable going into a lingerie store or do not have time to physically go and do the shopping, consider buying on-line. There are so many stores with a wide range of items and prices that you are sure to find exactly what you are looking for. The only word of caution would be to make sure you closely read the sizing charts from the manufacture and ensure that the store has a good return policy just in case you need to return an item that does not quite fit correctly.

Now for the fun part! You are now equipped with the knowledge, the rest is up to you. Go ahead, hit the sexiest lingerie stores and go shopping!

Luxury Lingerie for Indias Online Shoppers

shopimagine.in a venture promoted by a California-based NRI, is pioneering a new online retail model focusing exclusively on the Indian urban professional woman.

Promoted by California-based NRI Hina Saiya, the online store (www.shopimagine.in) will offer the largest selection of babydolls, teddies, corsets & bustier, camisoles, bridals, bra & panty sets as well as exclusive club & party wear.

The online portal will be the first of its kind in India and aims to be the largest with an initial luxury lingerie selection of over 100 styles. The online store will start shipping orders on February 1, 2008, in time for Valentine’s Day.

The portal will be online from January 1, 2008. Those customers who place advance orders before the portal becomes operational on February 1, 2008, will get a discount of 25 % on each item.

Hina Saiya, Chief Executive of shopimagine.in, while speaking to mediapersons at a Press Conference in Mumbai recently, said the rise in purchasing power, exposure to the luxury options thcoarse the media and foreign travel has created desire to indulge in luxuries not imagined just a few years ago. "Luxury lingerie, more than jewelry or any other luxury item, allows a woman to express her personality and inner desires. It is rapidly becoming a must-have accessory in a woman’s personal collection."

ShopImagine has identified this as a major business opportunity and is launching the online store (www.shopimagine.in) with a personalized service targeted at the urban professional woman. ShopImagine is sourcing luxury lingerie items from multiple sources across Europe, Americas and Asia.

The company is establishing product experts who will be available online or via telephone to advice and guide the consumers in product selection, usage and care. Personalized service is the key since ShopImagine expects significant number of orders originating as gift items from male buyers.

“Over the last two years, I have witnessed a high degree of awareness, interest and desire among my friends in India, to own luxury lingerie,” Hina said. “However, lack of good selection and discomfort at buying a personal luxury product in a crowded mall deters most women. In addition, there is no convenient way for men to select and purchase luxury lingerie for their girl friend, fiancée or wife.”

Hina said she embarked on an in-depth exploration of the luxury lingerie product sources across the world as well as e-commerce logistics in India. She conducted a detailed study of the target consumer segment, namely, urban professional women, to fine-tune the offering to their aspirations and desires.

Constantly on the lookout for new product ideas, Hina said she travels to at minimum three to four countries every year as well as extensively thcoarse India. She believed that shopimagine.in would bridge this gap thcoarse the expert advice and large selection of luxury lingerie.

shopimagine.in will ship all items to the customer free of cost and with a seven-day money back return policy available across all of India.
