I love the idea of vintage lingerie. There is something so completely beautiful and old fashioned about it. That’s not to say that it’s not sexy. Oh no no no, quite the contrary girlfriends. Truth told most of the lingerie styles that we associate with really sexy lingerie are throw backs from days gone by. When do you think women actually wore corsets, bustiers, and thigh high stockings? These are all styles from fabulous days gone by, and now we just go out and buy them to seduce our boyfriends. What would the women of those eras have to say about that? Maybe we should all be raiding our mothers attic’s for our sexy stuff. It may just be a very worthwhile trip.

Some of the old stuff does look itchy and uncomfortable. But it’s undeniably sexy, even the old pointy bras and the girdles with garters attached. They definitely have an old fashioned almost innocent sex appeal about them. I’m a fan, and this might actually be one of those times where my mother really knew something, but she apparently wasn’t telling.

Stores that sell vintage-style lingerie are popping up all over the place.  Walking into one of them recently it was as if I was in a store from a bygone era, with photos of Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe adorning the walls.  The merchandise did have  a little old fashioned flair to it, but it’s very beautiful.  It’s elegant and classic.  Vintage lingerie is absolutely hot and very very sexy.  If you are looking for something truly special to add to your lingerie wardrobe. then a look into the past may very well be just the way to go!  xo J.
