Advice on Unlocking a New Type of Lingerie for Some Sexy Fun

Advice Seeker: Dear April,

I have a lot of lingerie -- the usual stuff. But now that I've been with my boyfriend for five years, I'm looking to spice up my lingerie collection. I'm out of ideas; I've tried different colors, sheerness in different spots, different degrees of laciness. Do you have any advice on lingerie that will add some sexy fun to my relationship?

Sincerely,

Lingerie Lady

April Masini's advice:

Dear Lingerie Lady,

Sexy lingerie has NEVER gone out of style. But ... many women have gotten lazy about keeping their lingerie freshly stocked and this indicates or leads to a droopy sex life in your relationship. But don't beat yourself up for not having the right lingerie -- it's one simple way to boost your entire life and relationship one leg at a time. For a new addition to your collection, try stockings!

Sexy stockings are meant to be just that -- sexy stockings. They aren't what you wear to a business meeting or a doctor appointment unless you want to feel very sexy and project sensuality -- or seduce your doctor! There is a time and a place for regular pantyhose -- but seducing your man is not that time.

Get a Leg Up - Stocking Tips:

* NEVER wear stockings or pantyhose with sandals. NEVER!!!

* Just because you're wearing stockings doesn't mean you don't need a pedicure. You do. There's nothing worse than a woman kicking off her shoes and seeing her un-pedicured feet through the stockings.

*While stockings are not usually summer wear, in certain parts of the country, it is appropriate to wear hose to work and to parties. Bare legs are just too casual. So, if you live in those parts of the country, switch from pantyhose to much cooler stockings for the summer months. You'll be more comfortable.

*Keep a supply of stockings in different styles and colors. White, cream, off white, ecru, tan, beige and black are all great to have on hand.

*For some sexy play, matching stockings, garter belts and lingerie are a great way to entice his senses. Men love matching sets in pastel colors, so keep a few on hand.
