Honeymoon Lingerie: What's Your Fantasy?
Words by Kristen Fogle
You’ve planned it all. At 10:42 PM precisely, after numerous goodbyes from your family and hers (well, now your family too, gulp), you’ll carry her over the threshold, to which she’ll “Ah!” over the array of perfectly placed petals and meticulously picked champagne. The suite, after hours of online research, is just to her liking, with a dazzling view and boasting the ultimate king size bed and hot tub.
Thankfully, we’ve got it covered.
For her, finding something is a cake walk. The only thing to determine is her lingerie style. If your beloved is a traditional type, don’t go for costume wear. If she has a slightly wild side, don’t be afraid to make it a little racy. But whatever you do, don’t forget that this is your wedding night, and even the sauciest sex kitten may want to celebrate in a manner befitting of it. (Also, when in doubt, stick with white.)
As for where to nab pieces for her, there are always the mall accessible favorites: Victoria’s Secret and the slightly naughtier Fredrick’s of Hollywood. Online, Fredrick’s offers all the traditional bras, panties, chemises, and teddies. You may even want to opt for a Special Occasion/Bridal corset. Victoria’s site has a straight to the point, “Shop By Collection” section, where you can find “Sexy Lingerie,” “Silk and Satin,” and even a “Bridal Collection.” There are plenty of finds in the latter--lace nighties and strappy baby dolls--all at fairly reasonable prices. You might even want to get her one of their “It’s My Day” tanks, with just a touch of bling--a perfect sleep piece for her to don after, ahem, the bedroom festivities.
Other places to venture include Dreamgirl (http://www.blogger.com/www.dreamgirldirect.com), a vendor with an extensive “Nuptials” department sold at various locations including on the web. (They also have plenty of costumes to choose from, including selections for you as well!) Another favorite is Linay (http://www.blogger.com/www.linay.com), an online boutique that has everything from traditional bustiers, camisoles, and bra and thong sets to mini dresses, body stockings, and catsuits. Best though is their collection of accessories--anklets, belts, gloves, stockings, thigh highs, and footwear. They also have plus size options, but for an entire site devoted to lingerie for your voluptuous lady, visit Hips and Curves (http://www.groomsonline.com/http;/www.hipsandcurves.com%29.
For you, finding tasteful bed wear may be a bit trickier, but it is completely doable. Many women's sites offer selections for both parties, so when doing your own online search, look for men’s lingerie departments as well. The Lingerie Zone (http://www.blogger.com/www.thelingeriezone.com) offers great finds for her, plus briefs and boxers you probably won’t find at your local department store. On the other hand, if you want something more traditional but want to dress yourself up a bit, try a higher end brand like Calvin Klein, Diesel, DKNY, Puma, Dolce and Gabbana, Tommy Hilfiger, or Hugo Boss. Take a glance at Bare Necessities (http://www.blogger.com/www.barenecessities.com), which carries “Men’s Fashion Underwear,“ those new finds from some of the mainstream brands above (and many, many others). They also have lounge and sleepwear and practical items like socks and multi-pack underwear. Additionally, many of the places you purchase your wedding wear have options too. Brooks Brothers (http://www.blogger.com/www.brooksbrothers.com) is not only a great place to find formal wear for the wedding itself but has tasteful choices (both in price and in style) that look good on any man.
So even if you’ve left your night time wedding wear search waiting, it’s not too late--a visit to your local mall or a well informed internet peruse can do you well (although if it’s really late, you may want to opt for rush delivery). Just avoid being without for you and yours on your wedding night--it’s the second most important garment you’ll both have on that day.
