Sexy Lingerie Can Change Your Life

When I was a young girl, my mother very teasingly told me that since I no longer believed in Santa Claus that I would only get underwear from him from that year forward. I thought she was joking. I believed she just enjoyed my discomfort at the idea that a strange old fat guy who I barely knew would be giving me sexy lingerie. That Christmas I got a present under the tree and the tag did indeed say from Santa. blue, teddy, embroidered cups, cheeky cutI expected it to be something from my list of goodies I had asked for but when I opened it I saw snippets of lace and small ribbon bows. Inside that package was indeed some lacy panties and to my shock a blue teddy. I blushed a deep red. I admit I was truly baffled at why my mother would do this to me.

When I spoke to her later that day she told me that it didn’t matter if I was going to run a business meeting in a pant suit or if I was hanging out with friends in my jeans. There was no reason I couldn’t know, just for myself, that I had feminine and sexy lingerie on just to feel pretty. It turned out to be some the very best advice I have ever been given.  When I tried on those first panties that had lace trim and little bows I remember feeling like I was really growing up. Each  time I wore a little slip of lace I felt like a princess. I felt so great in that blue teddy that I wore it until it was in tatters. In those tough years of being a teenager, when I had the hardest time with my self esteem, I learned to truly treasure my gifts from Santa.

At times, in the many years to follow, I forgot that lesson and my drawers were sadly empty of things that made me feel fabulous. When I recall that lesson I rectify the situation and find that secret power in treating myself well and feeling good about my body.  The very best part of my Mom’s advice are the other things that happen for me when I do follow her guidance. I often wonder if her simple idea had a much more complex motivation as I now know this habit affects me positively in so many ways.

This list is just a few of the many ways wearing sexy lingerie can change your life.

1. Confidence-As you slip into some satin or lace that you feel truly fabulous in your confidence will soar. If you don’t feel great about yourself already treat yourself. Wear something pretty until you do start to feel like a princess.

2. Self Care– Once you start to treat yourself to pretty underwear and your confidence grows you will find you make better choices for yourself over all. Before you know it you will be finding other ways to improve yourself. Try a quiet soak in the tub with a few candles or a new class at the gym. The possibilities are endless!

3. Fantasy– Fight the dulls and indulge in a personal fantasy or two. We love Hollywood for providing escape into other’s lives. Why not just be someone you want to be with a sexy little number in leather or lace.

4. Comfort– When you find pieces that fit well and flatter your shape it just leads to comfort. Being comfortable in your clothes helps you to be comfortable in your skin. Lounging in your home is a terrific place for a slinky negligee.

5. Surprises– Those special moments when you get to show off your favorite bra and panty set or a new bustier to your partner and see his reaction.
