    Obviously you put it on duh! But how do you go about putting it on and showng it to your man? Do you announce it " I am going to slip into something more comfortable wink wink" or do you just put it on as if it were pj's?

    I have worn lingerie twice and both times I was so super uncomfortable and awkward. It was just weird lol I have never considered my self "sexy". Am I alone? I want to wear sexy stuff for my hubby on our honeymoon but i just feel like it will feel so forced. Don't get me wrong I LOVE lacy undies and bras but I just feel weird wearing an actual outfit for the sake of "looking sexy".

    Haha that's why I don't wear it much.  I think that you should just change into it when he is just hanging out watching TV or something and surprise him.  You probably won't be wearing it long enough to feel awkward about being sexy.

    Oh, good AsB!!! lol. And then you can go sit casually next to him on the couch like it's no big (just like PJ's)! lol.

    that said, I'm not really one for that sort of thing, either. Embarassed

    i'll put it on when he's not looking and then put my normal robe or jucy suit over it, so he doesnt expect anything.  then, snuggling on the counch he'll realize that there is more going on than meets the eye ;)

    I did that the last time, but then he just wanted to keep looking at me with it on lmao I was like omg no just turn off all the lights hahahaha. I feel super cute in little shorts and a tank top or just a cami and panties, but I guess it's because its what I wear around him all the time.

    Haha. I have a TON of lingerie, but I hardly wear it either.

    I do it nonchalantly. I agree with surprising him with it. Wear it under your clothes and then just whip them off and "BAM" there it is. I've also hidden it in the bathroom and changed on the sly before. You can change while he's in the other room and then pull a "Honey, can you come here for a second?"

    There's lots of creative ways to do it.

    I also agree about the awkwardness. You won't be wearing it long enough for all that. ;)

    Oh have you seen The Devil Wears Prada?  When she starts unbuttoning her shirt and she has a bustier on and asks her boyfriend if he likes it?

    MissAsB..YES! I loved that. I don't live with my FI so it's a little hard to do the little spontaneous stuff like that but I can't wait to have him all to myself once we are married!

    I don't wear lingerie very often either. I usually change into it after I've showered, put on a nice smelling lotion and pinned my hair out of the way. That way I feel relaxed and comfy and confident that I may be tied into some lacey contraption, but I'm soft and I smell good! I don't tell FI that I'm going to put lingerie on. I just change and come out "for a glass of water." By the time I'm leaving the kitchen, I have his company.

    I have done it a few ways:

    1. Put it on under your clothes on date night and give him a peak while you are out and that will make him sweat with anticipation until you get home when he can rip your clothes off.

    2. Tell him you've got something for him and make him sit on the bed and change in the closet and do a little show for him as you walk towards the bed - this one takes some balls or some wine LOL

    3. Get all dolled up before he gets home for work and be home waiting for him on the bed etc. or my FIs favourite I was cooking dinner all dolled up when he got home!
