ORLANDO — What is it about lingerie that makes a woman feel so vibrant … and so sexy?
We all start off the new year with our list of goals, from revving up our careers to eating right and putting a stronger focus on fitness and exercise.
But we all know you have one other important goal : You want to feel sexy.
And that could mean opening your closet door, looking in, and knowing it’s time for a change – a significant one.
That’s because keeping things sexy is about taking charge, and making the changes you need to feel your sexiest and to be your best. That’s what 2019 is going to be all about.
We also know that if you feel sexy, it boosts your confidence.
If you’re skeptical about that, it should be noted there’s research that bares out the notion that feeling sexy is a major confidence-booster.
We know that we can feel sexy through what other people notice about us on the outside – the clothing we wear, our hair style, our nails and lipstick. All of that matters.
But it’s also true that your underwear is equally important.
Why Lingerie Matters
Unless you’re in a crowded dressing room trying on something new, or changing clothes at your gym or fitness center, who’s going to notice?
Ah, that’s the difference. If you’re sitting in a café, sipping a glass of wine, and you feel confident about how your hair, nails, and dress looks, and have silky smooth legs, you’re going to feel confident while you’re there.
But you’re going to feel more self-assured if you have a lot of faith in the underwear you’ve got on.
Because if you know it makes you look sexy, and you feel sexy wearing it, then you’re going to feel a lot more positive and excited about yourself.
It’s easy to underestimate the power that new underwear can have on a woman, letting her feel sexier than ever, and providing her with a new sense of excitement and purpose. Putting on that new underwear is going to make you feel special.
Why?
What Do Studies Say About Lingerie?
Studies have indicated that different things can help make a woman feel sexy and vibrant. For some, it’s wearing diamond rings, for other, a lovely pair of heels.
The right dress can make them feel slimmer, and more appealing. Their hair and make-up can contribute significantly to their overall look.
But sexiness may owe the most to the underwear we put on – how it makes us look and feel when we’re out in public, meeting people. Whether you’re in a business meeting or taking in a movie, you want to be sexy for your other half, and putting on sexy underwear is a great way of dressing provocatively.
The bottom line is we know that the style of clothing we select, and the outfits we wear, contribute enormously to how sexy we look – and feel.
And our underwear plays a huge role in that.
It emphasizes the inner goodness behind the dress and heels. And unleashing that starts with your lingerie. We all want to feel good about our lingerie – and to feel sexy wearing it. Knowing you have it on makes you feel good throughout the day.
It could be about more than bras and panties, it could be stockings, garters, slips, corsets, robes and teddies, laces and ribbons. It’s the fashion icon that symbolizes who we are, let’s us feel empowered, and helps you fully express who you are — a reflection of your personality and emotions.
How are you going to feel sexy if you settle for plain, bland, boring old undergarments? Isn’t that what your grandmother used to wear? Come on!
And admit it: don’t you just love coordinating your lingerie, spending some time matching a pair of bra and panties?
Conclusion
It’s been proven time and again that you’re going to feel at your best when you feel good about yourself, and when you feel sexy.
Women feel confident for a lot of different reasons. A new haircut. Walking in heels. Shaved legs. Designer perfume.
But they can also feel sexy and vibrant from their lingerie.
