How to look good in lingerie
If in doubt go for black
Black is flattering on most skin tones, slimming and classically seductive. If you're nervous about colour, you can't fail with black. White on the other hand can be difficult to wear.
Remember – your breasts should be two separate plump lumps, not smushed together into one superboob. There is such a thing as too much cleavage.
Mix and match
Matching your bra and knickers is not as essential as you think.
As supermodel Helena Christensen explains, "Look for lingerie sets that would be good to mix and match, rather than wearing designer pieces from top to toe, which can feel quite strict and corporate."
Confidence is key
We'll leave this one to Victoria's Secret model, Cara Delevingne, "The thing is about being sexy, I think, no matter if you're in lingerie [or] if you're not, it's all about confidence in yourself," she explains.
"And I know that's hard, because I know everyone has insecurities, and everyone feels inadequate at certain times, but that's the thing: When men see a woman being confident, no matter what they're doing, it's a very amazing thing to see, and that's what I think brings sexiness for sure."
Do your legs, sort out your bikini line and smooth on some moisturiser to make your skin look healthy and radiant. It's not all about the pants.
Nothing wrong with being comfortable
Lingerie isn't supposed to be painful and restrictive. The more uncomfortable you are, the more uncomfortable you'll look. Pick designs which flatter your figure and are easy to wear, it will boost your confidence and make you feel amazing.
Why do you have to go make things so complicated?
If corsets, stockings and garters bring you out in a panic - just keep it simple.
Some cute knickers and a nice bra in a soft pastel colour will do wonders. When it comes down to it, most men would be intimidated by a lot of kinky lingerie - think sensual and playful instead of forcing 'sexy'.
