Honeymoon Lingerie

by Libby Dowd

Any bride-to-be is likely to find herself knee deep in brand new lingerie by the time her honeymoon arrives. In fact, she may end up with more intimate apparel than regular clothes in her suitcase. Since it’s wise to travel with a little extra room in your suitcase, I’ve compiled this list of Honeymoon must-haves:

Something Sweet: Chemises and camisoles are a popular bridal gift item since the shopper does not need to know the bride’s bra size in order to get a perfect fit. Mesh or cotton styles can be sexy, but at the same time comfortable enough to sleep in.

Something Sexy: A striking piece of lingerie that she might not wear any other time should certainly find its way into a new bride’s suitcase. Sultry styles from Masion Close fit the bill. At a higher price point, Toad Lillie offers styles that are revealing, but still very tasteful.

Something Comfy: A comfortable and shapely robe is a necessity for vacationing newlyweds. I think any girl could live in these printed styles from Plum Pretty Sugar.

Something Blue: This is the only time a lacy blue pair of bridal panties will be appropriate. Go for the ones with the most bows and bedazzled details!  I love this pair from Betsey Johnson.
