Feeling sexy.  It’s not just about attracting someone — real sexiness is the total confidence that can make you feel smarter, funnier and better in every area of your life.

It’s human nature to want to be adored or feel sexy, but it all has to start with you.  Compliments from others are always lovely but don’t depend on them for self-assurance.

Feeling sexy has to start with you.  The only one stopping YOU from looking or feeling sexier is YOU! That is right, feeling sexy is all on YOU!

Even the thinnest or most ‘perfect’ woman needs a bit of work before they feel ready to face the world. Just because there’s a little more of you to love doesn’t mean you’re automatically disqualified from beauty, love or sexiness.

Here are some steps to help you look your best.

  1. Firstly YOUR BODY WEIGHT DOES NOT DEFINE YOU
  2. Don’t let others effect how you feel about yourself
  3. Be aware of your body, look at it.  Know every angle, every curve and learn to love it.
  4. Adopt a sexy attitude
  5. Dress for yourself not for others
  6. Stop the negative feedback, Your body hears everything your mind says be strong.
  7. Give yourself permission to invest in how you look.  Buy that killer dress and wear it like a goddess
  8. Change it up, A new lippy or haircut can work wonders
  9. Act out, think of someone you admire and walk through that door as if you were in their shoes.
  10. Start with the basics, throw away those ripped, faded  youv’e-had-them-for-years undergarments and invest in new ones.
  11. Listen to music that takes you to a sexy place.  BEYONCE!
  12. Smell good, pop on that fancy perfume you keep for special occasions.

More than anything else, how you appear depends on the way you feel inside. Be confident that you are a beautiful, strong amazing woman.  That kinda confidence oozes with sexiness.

Plus Size Lingerie Perfect For Valentines Day

By 6 Comments

Dare to bare this Valentines Day with these smoking outfits

Let’s be honest ~ it can be quite a frustrating process shopping for sexy plus size lingerie in Australia {other than bras and underwear}.

If I had a dollar for every time I walked out of major retail stores like Bra’s & Things or even Myer many years ago, feeling disappointed that there was NOTHING over a size 16 I would be super rich.
Or if it did fit my body size there was no cramming my big boobies in the tiny cups.  Gah! Nightmare!!!!

And you know what.  It makes you feel like crap not being able to buy any lingerie at major shopping centres.  I made the choice a couple of years ago to stop bothering to look in certain stores.

In my hunt for sexy outfits I found a couple of retail stores and many online shops that specialise in plus size lingerie. The good news is that more and more retail stores are popping up every day.  {And well done to Target who have recently started stocking a small number or plus size babydolls. Some examples below}

There ARE options out there for us curvy gals.  You just need to know where to look and over the last couple of years I’ve been telling anyone and everyone who asks where I get all my goodies from.

Step out of your comfort zone this Valentines Day.  There’s no reason that you shouldn’t feel comfortable

Feeling sexy is mostly a state of mind anyway – and once you see how sexy you can be, you’ll feel better about sex and better about yourself.The perfect pieces to heat up your night.  Or day 😉
