Bridal lingerie -- what do you recommend? Also, found some really pretty $15 chemises and want your

A lot of the bridal lingerie out there is... well, sexy, but kind of vulgar. Or kind of plain. I think this is nice: http://www.ideeli.com/events/30131/offers/667447/latest_view/591255
(If you don't already have an account, here is an invite http://www.ideeli.com/invite/itsabeautifulbride)
But maybe a bit plain? It's definitely the right price ($15), and honeydew is a pretty reputable brand. 

It's really hard to find the perfect nightie for a virgin bride! On the one hand, I want something princessy like http://www.brideness.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/delarenta-seductivemoments.jpg. On the other hand, I don't want something too short, that screams sex. And I don't want too opaque and too long, which screams prude. And I kindof also want to be taken out of my wedding dress by my husband, so maybe I should just be looking at pretty foundation garments... I have a mermaid dress, so it'll have to be smoothing. But then that might be tight and leave pink lines all over me by the time I've been in them for 8 hours... Help!

Also, does anyone rewear their bridal lingerie, and not in the context of re-playing out a wedding fantasy?

  • Hmm. Well then.

    Dependidng on your dress, you could probably do this

    The eyelet makes it less slutty, but the piece itself is sexy.

  • Truthfully, I think you are overthinking it. I would get the princessy one you posted (which I think is a good balance for what you want). Wear what you need to wear (if anything) under your dress so that it fits properly. Your husband will think you are the cat's pajamas either way. The lingerie set is really good for your honeymoon and anytime you want to feel pretty and sexy, not just for wedding related sexcapades.

  • I would say that you shoudl wear lingerie that makes you feel beatiful and sexy.

    I will personally find the sexiest thing I can because i already own too many lingerie outfits (i used to work at VS) but I do believe as long as you feel sexy and beatiful it doesnt matter where you get it or how much it costs.

    also the color is part of the decisision. More reccently not every bride wants white. I will be looking for red because its my FI fav

    good luck
  • Where did you find that pink princessy one?! It's SO gorgeous!
