I ask because I bought this hot pink see-through number, oh, about three Christmases ago, wrapped it up and put it under the tree for my guy to open—but for me to wear, I swear! And well, it's still sitting in the drawer with the tags on...
So what brought up these thoughts of my abandoned lingerie? Well, the other day an editor friend who was working on a story asked me to ask the BF what men think women should do more of to make them happy. "Wear more lingerie!" popped right out of his mouth. Oh, reeea-llly?
For the record, I'm no prude and I'm not anti-lingerie. Back in the day…well, this isn't the forum for those particular stories, but suffice it to say I bought it, I rocked it, I conquered. But that was then. I guess lately I figure the BF sees me with legs that haven't been shaved in weeks and wearing bloomers and still thinks I'm sexy, so do we really need the peek-a-boo nightie? It's just going to wind up on the floor after ten seconds—wouldn't a towel suffice?
All this to say, I'm in the market for some lingerie. (I tried on that pink nightie and my boobs are way bigger than when I bought it. I looked like a frilly pink sausage.) Since V-day is almost upon us, I figured you guys would be in the lingerie-shopping mood and up for helping me pick something out. Here are some options.
Since it's for V-day, how about something like this Frederick's of Hollywood "heart lace babydoll", $39, available at fredericks.com?
I could go with a bedroom classic, the lacy black nightie, like this In Bloom By Jonquil 'petite gateau' chemise, $58.90, available at macys.com.
