Something Blue Bridal Lingerie Shower



Something Blue Bridal Lingerie Shower?

Like any other party, even bridal lingerie showers can be categorized. There is the party made fun on a small budget, there is the party which has conservative guests and games have to be planned in order to not scandalize them and there is the completely different party for the blue ones.

Who are the blue ones? The blue ones are those who probably would probably have one of the most popular designers design their bridal gowns, who would get a shoemaker to custom design their footwear and would probably get a jeweler at Tiffany’s to craft something exclusively for them. Just because they have exclusive tastes and the money to match it, does not mean they do not deserve a fun bridal shower!

How to go about it:

Invitations
Keep the invitations classy. You can try designs in ivory with a flowery handwritten font and a string of pearls and champagne flute. Do not forget to ass a hint of white lace here and there. A peek of an exotic lacey white bra or a bit of a pearl studded panty stuck in the corner of the invitation to retain the essence of the party works just fine.



Decoration
Take inspiration from the classic British movies to know what your décor should be like. Do away with tumblers and disposables. Bring out the wine glasses or the martini glasses or any other long stemmed glass. You can add a little decorative satin sash on the stems of each glass. Keep your décor stylish.  You can wrap lace around the table cloth of your table to emphasize it is a lingerie party, so that your guests know what to expect. Use a lot of pastels in your décor. Pastel pinks and pastel blues when combined with white add instant class to any pattern or design.



Gifts and Games
Keep tiny jewelry boxes in which the guests can place their gifts. When you display all the lingerie gifts the bride to be has to elegantly life the lids of these boxes to peek at the gift inside.   Get the bride to be to guess which guest has given her which gift and why. You can even play musical chairs with a lingerie box. Add a satin gown or something equally conservative to a small box. Put the small box in a bigger box and the bigger box inside a slightly more bigger box. Do this till you have a decent size box to pass around. Whoever gets the smallest box has to model that piece of lingerie.

Ideas for Surprise Lingerie



She wants me to get her surprise lingerie? Ideas and advice?

You are one lucky groom if your bride to be wants you to surprise her with a lingerie basket! It is your bride to be’s way of telling you that she wants you to take the lead. She is ready and willing to be a part of your lingerie fantasies. This is your chance to make some of your fantasies come true. However a word of caution is mandatory. Remember your girlfriend is not Angelina Jolie or Salma Hayek or any other Hollywood diva you have been crushing on since your college days. Be realistic and choose lingerie which is more in sync with the personality of your girlfriend.



Get bold and naughty
This is your chance to extend the non verbal communication initiated by your bride to be. Pick up lingerie which will bring out the naughty and passionate side in her. While it is a great idea to get bold, lay off anything your bride might consider vulgar. You might think crotch-less panties are super sexy but it might make your bride to be extremely uncomfortable and the sizzling night you had envisioned could soon turn into a disaster.



Ask for help
Lingerie is an ‘all girls’ territory and unless and until you are super confident of you choices, it would be wise to sneak in some female help. Her BFF could help you out a great deal. Not only is she in sync with what will make your bride to be look and feel great but she also is privy to your bride to be’s innermost secrets and desires. She could help you create a surprise lingerie basket which is a perfect mix of your desires and those of your bride to be.  

In the absence of her BFF, ask for help from a lingerie sales girl. Remember to not include any of your female cousins or female friends as a part of this expedition. Your bride to be will not be very happy about you sharing this intimate surprise with another woman.

How to wear a garter



How to wear the garter in relation to the thigh-high stockings and garter belt

Garters and garter belts definitely make regular lingerie look sexier.

Garters

A garter is a great way to hold your stocking in place and prevent it from folding down when you are walking, sitting etc. It is essentially an elastic band wrapped around in sexy fabric to create and added effect. These days lingerie stores offer a great variety of stretchable and non stretchable garters. The non-stretchable garters need to be chosen with care so that they fit your size perfectly. You can also adjust the fit of your garter with cute and naughty garter pins.

Depending on the length of the time you want to wear your garter for, wear your garter either mid-thigh or a couple of inches above your knee. Wearing your garter just above your knee provides a more comfortable fit and prevents it from chaffing against the inner thigh of your other leg. Remember to choose a garter which is not so tight as to cut off your blood supply and not so loose that it will fall off.



Garter Belt
A garter belt comes with four to twelve adjustable straps which help you hold the stockings in place. A six string garter belt provides the maximum comfort if you want to wear your stockings for long hours. 

Choose a belt size which sits snugly on your waist, just below the navel. Next wear your stockings and pull them up to your thighs. Using the clips on the ends of the strap, clasp them and inch below the rim on the welt of your stockings. Adjust the straps such that your stockings are properly stretched. To avoid the snapping of your stockings, place your foot on a chair and adjust the back straps accordingly.

Invest in silk stockings. They look positively sensuous as they shimmer slightly when stretched and they also last longer than the regular stockings.

Looking hot and sexy is as easy as investing in stockings and a good garter or a garter belt.
