ive never seen a comfortable corset to lounge around in, they are pretty uncomfortable to even sit in… 
yes i know. but mine arent the TRADITIONAL corsets with boning or metal rods going up and down. in place of those hard things, there are strips of flexible plasticy material. so its wayyyy more comfy. like, some under-wire bras have metal, and some have comfy plastic, its kind of like that…and if u get the right size (ex. not one 2 sizes too small) then they are very comfortable to wear. 
Re: lingerie
i love lingerie. the design, the texture. its like u av u own secret, since i aint married, it makes it more excitng. but i do have trouble buying bras. sum fit me, sum dont. i dont know why that is.
You know what, I have also heard alot of people say that you dont need to buy alot of racy stuff, just get "practical" stuff, because you only wear the "unpractical stuff" for a few months and then you switch to the rest. I say dont listen to them! Let their marriatges be boring if they want to act like that and wear frumpy old stuff all the time. I have been married four years now alhamdulillah and buy new stuff all the time. I have so much stuff, but I like to always get more, because hey, you do need variety. I think even when you have been married for 10 years or 20 years, you should still make an effort to keep things romantic and should never come to bed in ratty old pjs (goes for both men and women!). I see things in some stores and Im like, seriously which wife would ever buy that, some of the stuff is just so ugly and boring, maybe its supposed to be for single woman lol. Of course you do need a few comfy pjs, for those times of the month or when your sick and just want to stay in bed all day, but even those pjs should be cute, not dull and boring. Anyways, about how much to buy, are you having a bridal shower? If you are, chances are you will get a ton of lingerie there as well. Not all of it will be to your liking, so keep what you like and return/exchange the rest, and then buy more accordingly to build up your bedtime wardrobe. I dont remember specifically how many items I had before I got married, but just make sure you have a variety of things to keep things interesting, in different styles, different fabrics (silk, satin, lace etc) as well as some robes. Ive never taken my husband lingerie shopping with me because I HATE it when Im in a lingerie store and I see Muslim men in there! Haha. Plus there are huge posters of barely covered women in there always so I just send him off to another shop while I go in. As time passes in your marriage, you will get a better understanding of what specifically your husband likes and then you can get more of those. You dont need to buy a new piece every week, but at least once every couple of months or something. For now just get what makes you feel sexy, beautiful and confident and dont worry too much this

Go to the lingerie store/department.............and ask the sales rep to measure your bra size. And they'll gladly do it for you. Women do this all the time so that they get a good-fitting bra.
It's a simple procedure.......the woman at the store will run her measuring tape on top of your shirt......and within moments she'll give you your band width number and cup size. And she'll even give you an alternate but equivalent size known as the the sister size to try on. For example let's say that one's size is 36 C.......the almost equivalent sister size alternative that you can try would be 38 B.
So, get yourself measured. Only takes a few seconds. If you have an ill-fitting bra........it can ruin your over all look in clothes. Also, try out the various hook and strap settings to adjust the tightness. Victoria Secret is having a HUGE sale these days.

I TOTALLY agree with you:):)
Re: lingerie
For now buy a few things that you really like and would wear right away--whether beautiful silk gowns or slips etc etc etc. You can go shopping after you get married and before the honeymoon after u have a better understanding your your husbands tastes.
I personally feel lingerie is essential--makes every girl feel like a princess--the laces, the silk the ribbons....and guys love it to---actually the lingerie business is huge because of men liking it so much--its beautiful, soft and sexy. As for your friends saying you need it only in the beginning and not later--I disagree. It adds an element of surprise and fun. and as time passes you two should appear lovelier and better than the day you get married because the wedding day should be the day you love each other the least.

Re: lingerie
Hey girls , i have a question too and i think this is the right place...
I'm sorry if i sound ajeeb....... but do u wear a bra under ur nighty....???
Re: lingerie
^errrrrr......depends.
Re: lingerie
No and my Mum always tells me off if she notices. She's so weird when it comes to lingerie, I remember on a holiday back home she told me not to wear g-strings cos she said what will the servants think when they're hanging up the washing lol
Re: lingerie
Why don't you request your friends to give you lingerie at your bridal shower?
That's what I did, and I got some really nice ones. And then once your married, ask your husband to buy you some that he likes. I've noticed guys and girls have diff taste in lingerie. Guys like the really skanky stuff, whereas girls tend to choose stuff thats pretty but a little more covered up.
Re: lingerie
Believe it or not while I was getting married, this was the LAST thing on my mind. Thanks goodness for my mother who had to remind me lol embarassing? yes but it was necessary
I bought only a few before the big day and afterwards I took hubby and he picked out some that he liked so it all worked out. And he actually enjoyed that shopping trip!
Re: lingerie
^ LOL......
Re: lingerie
Sexy lingerie gives you confidence.
So whether your single or married, everyone should have sexy lingeries. A woman gets a big confidence boost when she feels sexy herself. Selfridges are really good, and if u want something really beautiful, unique and (disgustingly) expensive try MYLA - i luv their stuff.
Re: lingerie
MYLA'S so pretty....too bad they dont have a store where I live:(
Re: lingerie
^ BR they've got a 50% sale on atm on their website...i'm really tempted to start blowing my credit card on it. Maybe tomorrow after my last exam???
My mum doesn't understand my obsession with lingerie since I'm single (but then again she just doesn't understand my obsession with shoes, handbags (anything expensive!!!))
Re: lingerie
in UK:(:( The US version is only 20%--that too on a pound price:(:(
