There's no doubt you want to look your best when wearing sexy lingerie. It's ideal that us ordinary women won't look like the model in the advertisement or at the store. In the real world every woman has her own unique body and an idea of her assets and areas she'd like to enhance or even hide. Choosing lingerie that completely flatters your specific body type is essential. Luckily there's a little something out there in the lingerie world to accommodate various body shapes for women.

Women with petite bodies are able to pull off ultra sheer skin bearing lingerie but may have some difficulty maximizing their curves in sleek teddies.To increase the look of your waist and curves try teddies and chemises in bright bold colors with lace and mesh detail. The skin tight fabric and frilly detail will cling to your body accentuating the curves and shapely body you do have.

If you have broad shoulders and want to minimize their appearance try baby doll sets or loose teddies. The width of the flowy bottom will correspond with your torso and create a more balanced lingerie look that is very sexy. This is the same for women with athletic bodies. Two piece garter sets will also draw the attention away from your upper body and draw the focal point to an asset you'd like to show off... like your thighs or bottom perhaps.

If you already have a nice full bust you don't have to worry about a heavy push up bra or showing off the girls. Measure and pay close attention to your cup and band size so that you don't overflow in bras and other lingerie tops. Try a balconette bra with matching thong or panties. Avoid halter style tops and add a garter skirt for flair.

Women with a smaller bust often try to enhance their chest with particular styles of lingerie tops. To achieve the look of a fuller bust try a corset or bustier to give you that boost, create cleavage and compliment hour glass body shapes.

Sometimes we like to bear all, while other times we like to conceal our trouble spots-like the tummy for instance. If you want to hide your tummy or at least draw attention away from it while still looking flawless in lingerie lace chemises and sexy teddies are great options. Color blocking is very strategic color placement strategy that works very well on lingerie because it turns the focus to the part of your body you want noticed (like your bust) and shy away from the part you want to conceal (your tummy). Try several lingerie pieces that include either lace detail or color-blocking.

If you're plus size or have a curvy body you'll definitely want to show it off when it comes to wearing lingerie. In order to show off those curves more fabric is less knowing that you don't want to completely skimp down or else there will be nothing to show off. A corset will really hug your body and highlight your assets. Bustiers with two piece garter sets are also great options to complete the whole look.
