Make it your New Year's resolution to look good

Even if, just after the festive season, we’re not in exactly the shape we’d like to be but we believe that beautifully designed and well-constructed underwear will make sure that everyone looks their very best.

These gorgeous little frilly bits will, without doubt, enhance our self-esteem and have us feeling feminine, saucy and very sexy whenever it matters most.

In any event, what is regarded as the ultimate in feminine sex appeal fluctuates constantly and at all times varies from culture to culture, and likewise how these attributes are best showcased shifts with the times.

In recent years, most of the hype surrounding the fashion and celebrity industry has had us believing that to be really ‘hot’ we have to be really skinny but, in reality the Debenhams survey of 2012 found that men voted Marilyn Monroe the top beach body of all times, and others who made the top 10 had bust sizes ranging between C and GG, so ladies, anything goes.

Journalist Julia Savacool’s recent book confirms that globally there are many cultures where curves have never been out of vogue. Take for instance our very own South Africa, the Caribbean and South America; here the focus amongst many has always been on pronounced derrieres and well-rounded hips and legs.

Having a fabulous booty has had the advantage that you can ‘shake what your momma gave you’ on the dance floor and now you can also twerk to your heart’s content, when the time is right.

With plus sized models like Jennie Runk posing for the 2013 UK H&M swimwear line and Levis South Africa launching their curvaceous jeans range, voluptuous women with plenty of junk in the trunk no longer need to take a back seat.

Levi Strauss has added a little more fabric to their jeans to accommodate those of us with pear shaped posteriors and to compliment this you should invest in a pair of French knickers which have that extra bit of lace around the hip area to make sure you feel gorgeous, glamorous and gutsy both inside and out.

Lady Fay’s Boudoir would like all of us to include in our New Year’s Resolutions the commitment that we are going to embrace our bodies whatever our vital statistics, and never feel the necessity to hide them under sack cloth and shapeless tents. 

We need to promise ourselves that, no matter what our body type, we will be inspired by the knowledge that in the right skimpy bits, like well-cut lacy knickers, pretty camisoles and saucy lingerie sets, we are all absolutely alluring.

Think like a sex-goddess and there is no doubt that you will seduce your lover when wearing impossible-to-resist underwear. Catch him off guard by appearing in a style he’s never seen you in before.

It’s bound to turn up the heat a notch or two and what happens next should remain your secret; but it’s bound to make you both feel terrific.

Lady Fay's Boudoir is an online lingerie and adult toy store created by a team of women as an antidote to the type of websites that make sexual exploration scary, tacky and generally unappealing to real women.

Give yourself permission to browse and shop according to your experience and the needs of your relationship. Visit Lady Fay's Boudoir to view their range of sexual health products, sexy lingerie and couple’s sex toys.
