A girlfriend and I were discussing lingerie this weekend. Some women love it, some women hate it, and some women simply don’t see the point. (For what it’s worth, I think a survey of men would show a similar split.)
Personally?
I like the idea of lingerie. I like that it says “Hey, I’m making an effort here”. And while I will never be one of those women who prances around in lace on a daily (or nightly) basis, it’s nice to have something to pull out for special occasions.
Unless it makes me feel stupid.
Lingerie should make a woman feel sexy. A woman who feels sexy will always be more sexy to a man than a woman who is painfully uncomfortable and worrying about whether or not she looks stupid or if a fat roll is poking out between straps. Obsessing over fat rolls is never sexy.
Here are 3 examples of lingerie that hit the sexy and not slutty note perfectly.
Striped Gown from Shop The Bunny
Why this works:
Black is sexy in any shape and size. It’s also see through without being completely see through. A hint of mystery is nice, especially if you’re used to having sex with the lights off. The length makes a woman feel luxurious – and doesn’t distract her with thoughts of “are my ass cheeks hanging out of this?”
Biskay Knot Chemise from HerRoom
Why this works:
You don’t have to go floor length for comfortable coverage. This chemise is a short, flirty length that still covers your butt. The sex appeal comes from the plunging neckline. I really like this piece because it’s unique and a little bit more elegant than what you’d normally find in a lingerie store. Also? Reversible. Yeah.
Chiffon Babydoll with Matching Choker
Why this works:
Yes, a matching choker. I’m not here to judge. Seriously though – all S&M jokes aside – the added effect of the satin choker is pretty sexy. It’s a little edgier than your typical nightgown, but still loose and flowy enough to make a woman feel comfortable.

I wish I had the body for #1! I love that one.

I still maintain my sexiness in my wife beater and boy shorts!
But some of those might work, too.

These are absolutely perfect!

Excellent choices! That first one made me go hmmm initially, but the more I look at it the more I like it. And it’s black, so there’s that.

I don’t know, as a man, I think that first one is pretty slutty.

Steve says the sexiest thing I ever wear is white cotton panties and one of his button downs.
I have a drawer full of lingerie that gets pulled out for special occasions. It’s fun, but I never spend $$$ on it. Usually just $.
I own that first gown. It is sexy as hell.

PS, what’s wrong with being slutty on occasion?
