Babydolls are probably a good, non-intimidating place for me to start. I think of them as lingerie with training wheels, because you can cover up problem areas. When I was a teenager and didn't have things like stretch marks (those were the days lol) I would go to Victoria's Secret or Fredericks of Hollywood. I still want to look like a million bucks, but I have come to realize that looking sexy is about feeling sexy, too. I won't move up to bustiers and other less forgiving pieces until I have dropped quite a bit of weight, and maybe toned some, too.

I wouldn't even consider lingerie for many years because I looked too much at the models in magazines and felt horribly dumpy by comparison. The whole industry left a bad taste in my mouth. Now I know a little more about the horrible things models have to do to themselves to look that good--and even then, the image that gets published is still airbrushed. Ick! Anyway,
