I’ve been casually looking around at bridal lingerie (mostly online). There’s the Spanx with awkward strapless bra look that I will be sporting under my gown. However, as hot as that may sound, I am looking for something my FI might actually *enjoy* seeing me in. As said before, I’ve just started looking…but I’m already noticing a trend. Some are too sexy, some are not sexy enough and others are just downright hilarious. Jeez, this is gonna be harder than I thought.
Option 2, Fun: Here’s one that’s inappropriate for reasons different than the first one. The tank top properly states “Bride”, but then it goes on to exclaim “Buy Me A Shot!” Ummm, ok. Not something I want to be wearing on my wedding night. And furthermore, even if it’s meant for the bachelorette party…I don’t think Mr. G would appreciate me parading around the streets of Hollywood in that get up! Do the fake breasts and tiara come with?
Option 3, The Opposite of Option 1: This one reminds me of something college girls try to pass off as a “halloween costume”. Isn’t it funny how most female costumes these days now have the word “sexy” in front of them? I’m not an angel…I’m a sexy angel! But I digress. Yeah, me and this little ensemble…ain’t gonna happen.
I’m going to keep looking. I saw a couple cute things at Victoria’s Secret.com. Always a good default plan. I could be super cheap and pull the whole excuse, “Well, I’m only gonna be wearing it for like five minutes…blah blah” But cheapness aside, I want to find something decent that I won’t want to kick my own arse for wearing. I wouldn’t mind something I could re-use as well. Have you taken the plunge and bought your wedding night attire?

You never know … Maybe you’ll get lingerie as a gift at a bridal shower or bachelorette party. Anytime I’ve seen lingerie at a bridal shower, it’s always from an older friend of the bride’s mother. Awkward!
I’ve also noticed the trend of sexy Hallowe’en costume. What’s up with that?!

Thanks, Krista! I think it’s some sort of unwritten bridal shower rule that lingerie has to come as a gift from someone who probably shouldn’t be giving you lingerie! (like you said, an older friend of your mom’s, your FI’s grandma, etc.)

Oh, yeah, fiance’s grandma. Definitely! Haha.
The Pissed Off Bride
I personally am not trusting anyone to pick out my wedding night goods. I will be handling that.
I agree it is so hard to find quality lingerie. I wanted to find something other than Vickies. . .but what. They are about the best thing happening.
