			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="body">
<p>Tired of feeling left out when you go to buy sexy lingerie and everything in your size looks like grandma? Good news ladies, the tides have turned! Shifts in the fashion industry as well as many cultural tastes herald a new age for plus size women and plus size lingerie they are getting the attention they deserve from designers, and men. Designers and the modeling industry have long pushed our aesthetic tastes toward the slim and waif-like model, especially since the 1870&#8217;s. In doing so, they made shopping for clothes and lingerie tough for women who need plus sizes. &#8220;Designers have learned within the last five to ten years that just because a woman is a size 20 it doesn&#8217;t mean she wants to wear a shirt that&#8217;s shaped like a box,&#8221; says 26-year-old Tynisha Thompson of New York City.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re over a size twelve, you may find more to choose from as attractive, elegant and sassy designs make their way to the women with curves. Now it&#8217;s easier than ever to find gorgeous bras and undergarments that are functional and practical, but also showcase the voluptuous feminine figure. &#8220;The average bra size in the US used to be 34B, now it&#8217;s 36C,&#8221; says Berna Goldstein, Curvation&#8217;s director of merchandising. As the average bra size grows, so do the bra options. Many times the dilemma is when a bra is pretty it doesn&#8217;t provide good support and when it provides support, it isn&#8217;t all that pretty. Because of this more stores are making it their business to carry plus size lingerie that caters to fashion and utility, and honors the beauty of the full figure. Some of the more popular brands are Prima Donna, Simone Perele, and Chantelle. Brands like <a id="link_37" href="http://www.bitsoflace.com/prima-donna-bras.html" target="_blank">Prima Donna bras</a> are making great strides in fashion sense with designs that accentuate floral designs, rhinestones and the latest in elegance. This is good news considering it&#8217;s been estimated that 62% of women wear an American size 12 or above, and lest we not forget, Marilyn Monroe was a size 14.</p>
<p>In addition to the new attention the fashion industry has been giving plus sizes, recent research is finding that the waif look may not have the natural appeal that voluptuous curves hold. Professor Devendra Singh and his daughter Adrian Singh, psychologists from the University of Texas assert that men are more attracted to women with curves, and curves denote breasts, thighs and an ample butt! America is just catching on while some other countries seem to have long held a full figure in high regard; like areas of Africa, the Middle East, Samoa and Mauritania. Much research has revealed that men enjoy curves and plus size beauty, and often don&#8217;t notice the extra twenty pounds that many women worry about. Movies like <em>A Cinderella Story</em>, <em>Real Women Have Curves</em> and <em>Bridget Jones&#8217;s Diary</em> prove a new era of taste in women&#8217;s figures is emerging. In fact, many might categorize the many blogs, websites and publications in support of plus size women as a movement. So to all those ladies who enjoy a fuller figure, take advantage of the new trend in plus size lingerie and plus size bras and pamper yourself with pride!</p>
</div>
<p>Lucy Hughes invites you to join the current movement that is helping plus size fashion and lingerie take the design world by storm. Taking pride in your most beautiful features and finding the perfect styles to accentuate your figure has never been easier.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As a woman, I have faced the difficulty of finding the right bra many a time. But what makes it even more tedious is the fact that I have a naturally curvaceous figure.</p>
<p>To find a bra that is both supportive and comfortable is a monumental task and this is where plus size bras come to the rescue. With todays ever increasing market there are plus size bras available for the support you need and the comfort you want, as well as that extra added beauty.</p>
<p>Plus size bras have done away with all the trials we women had to put up with in the past. With all the brands and varieties available, you can not only find plus size bras that you will love wearing, but bras that will accentuate your naturally curvaceous figure.</p>
<p>When we think of plus size bras, automatically we may picture two huge domes with hulking thick straps, digging uncomfortably into our shoulders. This picture is a thing of the past, sexy plus size bras are the future and are here to stay!</p>
<p>You can get extremely feminine lacy plus size bras, or sultry satin, silk and lace bras with under wire for extra support, strapless plus size bras, and even minimizer full figure bras. The companies have realized that a large portion of women have been endowed with naturally voluptuous and exotically formed figures and that this is what a woman should look like!</p>
<p>During pregnancy and your life span, your breasts can change size and sometimes dramatically, and having a quality plus size bra will make all the difference. You can make your figure look even more tempting, develop even more confidence and feel exceptionally comfortable in a plus size bra that fits just right. A full figure bra that fits properly will help improve your posture.</p>
<h3>Nursing Plus Size Bras</h3>
<p>Nursing bras are very comfortable if you are a breast feeding mother. You have to feed your baby periodically and the process is very cumbersome when you have to do it wearing regular bras. These bras have provisions to feed the child easily and comfortably. Look for plus size nursing bras that have a braiding support instead of wiring, which will give you a lot more comfort if you need to sleep in it. Most nursing bras are either made out of cotton / lycra for gentle support, but you can also get these plus size bras in very sexy designs too. You can buy a Nursing bra for just around £22.99.</p>
<h3>Plus Size And Push Ups</h3>
<p>Plus size bras are bras meant for full-figured women. These bras come with minimizers too, which help to minimize the projection of your bust. Push-ups have the opposite effect of the plus size bras and are commonly used by smaller structured women. This type of bra will give your appearance an even more heightened appearance, which is sure to get your partner&#8217;s attention away from the footaball game or whatever else he is doing!.</p>
<h3>Sports Bras</h3>
<p>You have to feel comfortable when walking or doing exercises. Wearing a regular bra just doesn&#8217;t provide the support we need, but also gives us the much needed comfort we deserve. I mean can you imagine running on a treadmill with a poorly constructed bra, not only will it have long term effects on your back but can also damage your breasts. You can buy a sports bra for around £19.99.</p>
<p>You should experience comfort and support while wearing a bra all day long. You have to be specific about which one suits you the most. You have to very careful about your size, which is often subject to change. It is necessary for you to check your size before buying one.</p>
<p>Plus size bras have finally come left that unattractive image of the past behind and become hugely sexy bras for today and tomorrow. Whether its a sports bra or an everyday sexy bra, we fuller figured women have finally been given a choice that is both comfortable and sexy. A click on your mouse is all it takes and the dazzling array of plus size bras will be at your fingertips.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Full-figured, curvaceous women are no longer forced to wear standard issue cotton briefs and boring, flannel nightgowns. There are many new choices in lingerie for plus size women. Whether you are a size 14 or a 3X, you can find lace, satin, even leather intimate wear. If looking voluptuous and romantic is important to you, a few special pieces of lingerie in plus size might be just how to do it. </p>
<p>A sexy bra and panty set is a wonderful way to flaunt your luscious curves. Some of the most seductive styles push up your bust and coyly cover your other assets. Look for lace detailing, embellishments, and vibrant colors. </p>
<p>A flowing and sheer nightgown or baby doll set is another option for lingerie in plus size that you may want to consider. You can certainly play up your sensuality in pink chiffon or black lace night wear that will keep your loved one&#8217;s eyes focused on you. </p>
<p>If you lean toward the exotic and adventurous, leather corsets, mesh bodysuits, or see-through teddies might be just your thing. Go ahead and experiment with all of the different varieties of fun lingerie. </p>
<p>Many retail stores carry large selections of lingerie for full-figured women. And if shopping from the privacy of your home is your preference, there are many online stores that specialize in plus size lingerie. Before you purchase lingerie from any retailer, make sure that you fully understand their return policy, in case something doesn&#8217;t fit properly. Some stores happily return unworn merchandise, while others have stricter policies. </p>
<p>What is wonderful about lingerie is that it&#8217;s such a personal and creative way to express your beauty, femininity, and sensuality. Regardless if you have a drawer full of perfectly good underwear and bras, you can still have those special pieces that you want to share with your loved one during those special moments. Or, perhaps you simply want to wear a sexy bra under your every day clothes. Why not? </p>
<p>Lingerie might not be as essential as a winter coat or pair of jeans, but it is worth the splurge. A few sexy items can add that little bit of spice to your life that might be in short supply. So, the next time you&#8217;re in the mood for a little romance, slip into something a little sexy and show off those wonderful curves. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A plus size pantie is a popular choice of underwear for women who think a thong or g-string is just way too uncomfortable. </p>
<p>Panties can be found in all sorts of shapes, colors and designs. For those who require something on the larger side, a plus sized pantie come to the rescue.</p>
<p>The panties of today were first sold in the 1950s and 60s and became hugely popular within a very short span of time. Before this, they were just a simple piece of clothing. However, with the emergence of prints and newer fabrics, panties suddenly became a fashion statement.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>by: Jacquie Barry </p>
<p>Size does matter! According to a recent article in the Washington Post, the sale of plus-sized apparel rose by more than 13% last year. The average American woman now wears a size 14, and companies such as Dove and Nike have taken notice. They are among the first national brands to recently launch major ad campaigns designed to embrace the beauty that comes from having ample cleavage and generous thighs.</p>
<p>At long last, full-figured women have finally come into their own. They can celebrate their shape with more clothing options now than ever before, and lingerie has become one of the hottest trends on the fashion map. You’ve seen it on Desperate Housewives, with the female executive who wears nothing but lacy camisoles underneath her blazer. Would you be able to pull off the same look? Although every body style is different, the basic rules are the same. There is an art to choosing (and wearing) lingerie well. Knowing the secrets to a great fit will enable you to look spectacular and feel great about yourself!</p>
<p>1. All Curves are Not Created Equal</p>
<p>No body is perfect. Supermodel Elle MacPherson has said, “The breasts go first, and then the waist and then the butt. Nobody ever tells you that you get a butt when you get pregnant.” We all have our flaws, but part of playing up your assets will involve downplaying the parts of your body you are least comfortable with.</p>
<p>If you like, take a good look in the mirror and identify what you love and don’t love about your body. If you dislike your hips or waistline, you will want to draw attention to the upper part of your body. Indulge in bras designed to produce cleavage and accentuate your curves.</p>
<p>If you feel like your breasts are too full but you’ve got shapely legs, then they should become your focal point. A babydoll nightie with an empire-waist will provide support for your top while letting you flaunt what’s below.</p>
<p>If you haven’t yet found a comfort zone, indulge in a full-length satin chemise with an a-line cut and perhaps a flirty slit on the side. If you do not like your upper arms, look for a sheer or color-coordinated short robe.</p>
<p>The key is to draw attention away from what you do not like about your body, and place it where you feel like being noticed.</p>
<p>2. Everyone Needs a Little Support</p>
<p>The best-kept secret among celebrities and those in the know has to do with the latest lingerie weapons, which can keep even the most problematic physiques in check. Modern-day support garments minimize stomach bulge, lift and separate, and produce a smooth contour under your clothes. Best of all, innovations in fabric and design mean that the painful confinement of girdles (and other instruments of torture) are a thing of the past. Look for camisoles with built-in bra support and high-cut briefs that offer hidden tummy panels. Women with fuller, heavier breasts should make sure to look for bras that feature wide shoulder straps. If you are unsure of your bra size, the best gift you could give yourself would be to get professionally sized by someone who works in the lingerie section of a department store. Making sure that you wear the correct bra size serves not only to make you more comfortable, but it can instantly change your silhouette and may even cause you to drop a dress size!</p>
<p>Spanx is one particular company that specializes in producing comfortable, head-to-toe support to keep your curves looking their best. Sarah Blakely, who founded the company out of her apartment, said “I bought clothes that looked amazing in a magazine or on the hanger, but in reality magnified every panty line and imperfection.” Her brand of footless pantyhose offers maximum control, and even boasts the tagline, &#8220;Don&#8217;t worry, we&#8217;ve got your butt covered!&#8221;</p>
<p>Seamlessbody.com is another company that specializes in supportive shape-wear designed for looks and comfort. They feature unique bodysuits that can be worn under your clothes and provide all-in-one support for your breasts, stomach and derriere. Both companies feature plus-sized versions of their products and are conveniently available online.</p>
<p>If you have a belly, choose high-waited briefs over bikini cuts. Not only will they fit more comfortably, but they are great at covering any stretch marks or other flaws and will flatter your shape.</p>
<p>3. Less is More</p>
<p>When it comes to color, keep it simple. A monochromatic look will do wonders to help elongate the bodyline and slim your proportions. In other words, keep the pieces that you wear at any one time as close to the same color as possible. Which shades work best? Dark tones such as navy, burgundy, brown or black will give you a more slender appearance. Another great rule of thumb is to choose colors that flatter your complexion.</p>
<p>It is wise to be cautious of patterns. Some smaller, more discreet prints may add to an outfit, but larger designs have a tendency to “clutter” or look different when they drape over problem areas you may be want to conceal. This has the unfortunate result of drawing the eye directly where you do not want it to go! If you have a personality that must express yourself with multiple colors or styles, a great way to spice up your wardrobe can come from adding on a couple of flashy, attention-getting accessories.</p>
<p>4. Bigger isn’t Always Better</p>
<p>One of the biggest misconceptions that many full-figured women have is the notion that choosing larger sizes will hide unsightly bulges and ultimately make them look slimmer. In reality, a shapeless, ill-fitting piece will not define anything, either good or bad, and will make your body appear much less attractive than you would look in clothes more suited to your accurate size. It’s fine to shy away from body conscious items. Lingerie pieces should be a natural reflection of your personality. If you have a conservative personality, wearing longer gowns or adding layers to your look will enhance your beauty and allow you to feel sexy without having to bare all. Should you have a more playful, flirty nature, the sky is the limit! Plus-sized lingerie includes stunning camisoles with delicate embroidery, frilly boyshorts that provide excellent coverage while exuding a youthful, sexy vibe, and buttery soft satin chemises that feel utterly luxurious against the skin. It is always best to try on lingerie before you buy, in order to make sure you will have the best fit possible. But if you are in a time-crunch or browsing over the internet, the best bet is to stick to your true clothing size.</p>
<p>5. Stores are Just the Tip of the Iceberg</p>
<p>Did you know that many retailers who do not display clothing over size 12 or 14 often have the exact same styles in larger sizes on their websites? If you spot a piece of lingerie that you just like but it isn’t in stock, try to find it online. The internet is such a good resource for plus-sized women that countless businesses have opened their virtual stores and specialize in nothing but full-figured lingerie. With a click of the mouse, you can delight in finding an elegant slip or searching anonymously for something more risqué. Many of these websites offer a multitude of styles for every mood or occasion, and most provide detailed size charts so that you can feel confident in ordering the correct sized garment. Not only do you not have to cope with impossibly thin sales associates, but you can have the freedom to shop from your home, purchase in privacy and even, in many cases, have your items shipped in generic brown boxes so the postman will be none the wiser.</p>
<p>What you wear closest to your skin should delight and comfort you, and deliver a knockout punch to those worthy enough to witness such unmentionables. The secrets to looking great in lingerie serve to enhance not only your outer curves, but allow your inner beauty to filter through as well. According to Wilhela Cushman, beloved fashion writer, “Just around the corner in every woman&#8217;s mind &#8211; is a lovely dress, a wonderful suit, or entire costume which will make an enchanting new creature of her.”</p>
