A Guide to Wearing a Lingerie Bra

A Guide to Wearing a Lingerie Bra

By Tatyana Dyachenko

Lingerie is very important for women, because it does not only provide support and comfort through a long day’s activities, whether they are at home or at work, but it also gives them confidence and a morale boost. Here are some ways to choose your lingerie bra in order to get the best comfort as well as suit the occasion.

Choosing the Right Lingerie Bra for Work

What we must try to get from a lingerie bra that we wear for long periods of time such as at work, home or even when we anticipate excessive activity, is comfort and support, Therefore, a cotton hypoallergenic bra would fit best the description.

The colors of the lingerie bra must be chosen with care, as if they are in contrast with your blouse it will be easily seen through it, and that is not the professional look that you want to show at work. However, if you are wearing a blouse that hides the color of your bra you can wear anything you choose as long as it is comfortable; most women choose cotton bras of black or white color for work wear.

Matching Your Lingerie Bra With the Underwear

Here the opinion differs, as some women will go to great lengths to positively match the bra with the underwear. However, it is not a must, and you can definitely mix and match as you please, mostly because it is fun to be adventurous. It is also fun to wear a very professional “dull” bra but match it with a sexy underwear.

While being adventurous is fun, you must match accordingly a lingerie bra with the underwear when trying to achieve a romantic look for your partner. For example, if you know you are going to try and seduce your partner with a sexy lingerie set, it must match in order to have any effect.

Helpful Tips

Women enjoy shopping for lingerie, and frankly it is hard to say when you have enough underwear or lingerie bras. However, it is essential you have the following categories in your lingerie collection: work or daily wear bra (which must be comfortable first and then anything else), a romantic lingerie bra that will perfectly match the romantic dress or attire you have in mind, a gym lingerie bra that provides support, and the strapless lingerie bra for your strapless dress.

Bras can be purchased specifically to your size and needs. It is essential you try it on before purchase to ensure it fits perfectly. Any slight discomfort can cause you pain and thus, you may never want to wear that bra again.
