Hello to you all! Im a newbie at posting but have been lurking for quite some time - hope you dont mind me posting?
Im a size 16-18 and to be honest i really struggle with how i look. Ive put weight on due to a medical condition and after years of having no sex drive at all its finally come back - hurray! Anyway, the husband (who has also had problems dealing with the weight gain) would love for me to dress up in something sexy, but i have hardly any confidence in that department and everything ive looked at here has made me feel shy just looking at it let alone wearing it! But, id really like to buy something that is sexy and flattering - so, if anyone could point me in the direction of one of their recent purchases id be reeeeally grateful!!
Being a similar size to you and with the same worries I've come to found some really flattering lingerie.
I'd really suggest this: http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=16862 It pulls in everything and looks gorgeous. I've only had the issue of the halterneck to become quite annoying with long periods of wear but it still looks sensational.
I've also bought this recently and absolutely adore it. The mix of lace, mesh and the wet look cups make this piece daring and stunning. http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=20225 Only issue is that it doesn't provide much support for the bust area.
And this was my very first lingerie purchase. I still love it till this day. The one in black is very sexy. Again, the only issue is that it doesn't provide much support for the bust- but a triangle bikini underneath solves this. I've not tried the red as it's a new selection in colour but it looks great too. http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=18779&reviewid=26452#customer_reviews Great purchase on a budget.
This is good for a sexy piece of lingerie and role-play! http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=21275&reviewid=32101#customer_reviews
Thank you for your replies! I like most of the ones that youve all posted links too, i suppose alot of it is down to confidence and the courage to buy and wear it in the first place! I shall have a think about those and wait for payday to roll around again!
I am also very similar size to you (size 14 in top deparment and size 16-18 when my hips come to play). I mainly look for something which shows my slimmer waist, but does not have too tight fit, basically it makes the figure looks slimmer. Unfortunately the best job done at this is by my old nightshirt I have had for years now, I always feel much sexier just seeing myself in it, because it flatters me greatly. I know you are looking for something more sexy, but I think you may consider buying something which can be tied round the waist (I also have 1 like that), which also makes the figure much better. And if you have slightly bigger breasts, look for something which would give them some support.
