Here’s something a little different and a lot fun, a ‘mini cami’ made of lace. It’s not quite a bra, but it is a very exciting entry into the world of chest bound lingerie. Halfway between a brassiere and a camisole, you find this sweet creation. There are no straps to adjust, no back clasps to cause bra lines that might be difficult to explain to the public at large, or to get caught up in other bits and pieces of clothing in awkward fashion. But there is a nice thick band of lace that walks the fine line between drama and comfort. With rave reviews from several satisfied customers, this is a little piece of lingerie you might want to consider.

A babydoll is something longer than a camisole, but shorter than a robe or gown. It’s a little dress like scrap of lingerie that’s designed to hit around about the upper thigh. A silky smooth babydoll can turn the simple act of going to sleep into a slip and slide sensation. This particular babydoll from Dreamgirl also comes with a matching robe so you can cover yourself for a more modest look or let your inner doll shine.

Starting at just $14.95 for the set, this item does come with something of a buyer beware caveat, as it is at the lower end of the price spectrum for lingerie some sacrifices have been made in the name of fabric quality, it is also a rather short item, so if you’re a tall guy you may find that it reveals much more than it covers. This item is probably best suited to those who want to dip their toe into the world of longer lingerie without making significant financial commitment, rather than anyone looking for a long term lingerie investment.

These are some interesting garter belts. I say garter belts as if there are two of them, which there sort of are and sort of aren’t. Basically there’s just one garter belt but it comes in normal sizes and plus sizes too, so everyone can enjoy the wet look nylon coverage. There’s something a little bit Catwoman about this piece of lingerie, it’s sinuous and sensual. It might plot to overthrow a local superhero, but I think you’ll forgive it. The straps across the rear are a little bit BDSM, a little bit Rock n’ Roll, a lot awesome. This isn’t delicate or frilly, but it doesn’t have to be. This garter belt is bold and knows what it wants. It has drive, it has passion. Will it have you?

Dark Delicacy Garter Belt (Plus Sizes)

Skirted garters are fairly self explanatory, like many other good things in life, the clue is in the title. What I love about these most is that they combine just a little hint of a skirt with the lingerie that so many men love, so you can dabble in additional feminine attire whilst remaining firmly in your comfort zone. The garters are detachable, so if you want to wear it with panties instead of panties and stockings, you can. These particular skirted garters from Jezebel are adorable in baby pink with black floral patterning for contrast. Embroidered bows add a little texture to the affair, which is topped off with black mesh ruffles. Beautiful.

Lolita Flower Chemise

I was looking for something that blurred the line of lacey lingerie and, well, a dress and I think I’ve found it. The world of chemises is one fraught with collagen and open cups, but this type of lingerie can be sensual and classy too. (Even if they did have to sling the word ‘Lolita’ into the name of the garment just so its peers wouldn’t stuff it into lockers and give it a complex.) It’s beautiful actually, as is most of the lingerie Natori puts out.

Electro Chemise

Whilst I’m at it, I’ll also mention the ‘Electro’ from the same family as the Lolita chemise. The Electro is a little more mature and shows a bit more architecture in its construction. It’s certainly one of the most unique chemises I’ve laid eyes on and I’m sure any man who delights in fine lingerie will likewise be entranced by the way his chest is transformed into something quite transcendent and lovely.

Yes, like it or not, there are men who want to wear women’s clothing who nevertheless don’t want to see other men who wear women’s clothing – and not because it’s sexual, but because they simply don’t like the way it looks. This is rather akin to a lesbian taking offense at seeing two women holding hands on the street, in fact, it vaguely puts me in mind of the infamous Republican anti-gay crusaders who turn out to be having intimate relations with every man in a five mile radius. Sometimes, seeing something that reflects something we’re not totally comfortable with in ourselves elicits a visceral negative reaction. In fact, I dare say that for some men who like to cross-dress the level of negative reaction to a non-sexualised image of a man in a dress provides a pretty good indicator as to the level of one’s own self loathing.

Of course, that doesn’t apply to everyone. Not all men wear women’s clothing for the same reasons, and not all men who wear women’s clothing wear dresses. I know there are men who only like panties and not much more and who keep such things private and would prefer other men did the same. But (in spite of the name and my own lingerie focused posts) this site isn’t just for men who like to wear panties. This site is for all men who want freedom from traditional dress, it’s for opening minds. It’s not for people to pick and choose what they find personally appealing from the wide world of cross-dressing and try to censor or pour scorn upon the rest of it. The man who wears a dress has precisely the same right to do so as the man who has a pair of panties stuffed in the back of his office drawer, and both will be welcome, and represented here.

Honeydew Rainbow Rhumba Panties

We begin with Rainbow Panties, all the colors of the rainbow trapped in frills around your rear, what could be more cheerful? Even the greatest critic of lingerie would have to have a hard heart indeed to not find these charming on some level. Sing along with me! Red and yellow and a slightly darker yellow and aqua marine and purple and blue, I can sing a lingerie rainbow, a   lingerie rainbow too!

Jezebel French Doll Bra

This French Doll bra takes purple to a whole new level. Note the snippets of pink woven in here and there to make the purple pop for more effect, and the satiny pink flashing across the top of the piece that sets the whole thing off in the same way icing sets off a birthday cake. (That’s where the saying ‘the icing on the cake comes from, you know.)  This is a gorgeous piece of lingerie. It’s cut in the balconette style, so it’s perfect for those who don’t have much in the way of cleavage, but who want to feel a pretty bra fastened across their chest.

Passion Sexy Stretch Sheer Mesh Mini Skirt With Sequins Built-In Thong Panty

Representing the green we have this pretty thong that also comes with an attached sheer ‘mini skirt’. If you’re looking for something tropical and super feminine, this really should fit the bill. The thong cut shows off your rear, whilst the mesh skirting subtly hides it, allowing you to play naughty games of peekabo, if you so desire.

Never Say Never Hottie Low-Rise Hipster Panties

What about something yellow? These lace low rise panties are startlingly yellow, and startlingly gorgeous too!

American Apparel Stretch Floral Lace Low Slung Panty

For our final touch of blue, we have these lacy blue panties from American Apparel. They also come in a veritable rainbow of other colors if you’d like them in a different shade. The draw point of these panties is the sheer stretch lace which will shift to accommodate you as you grow and dwindle. If you know what I mean. And you do.

Maidenform Red Polka Dot Lace Hipster Panty

We end with a very sweet pair of red polka dot panties by Maidenform. These should be winners for their hipster cut, touch of lace and bold femininity tempered with a certain carefree charm.

Let’s start with the panties first.

Usually one would pin a corsage to the breast region, or perhaps wear it upon one’s wrist, but I think you’re going to want to wear these panties as panties because to do anything else would be to miss out on their soft, silky embrace.

Now, the brassiere.

This is an interesting item of lingerie, not solely because of the light and frilly design, but because it appears to have been made with those who either don’t have natural breasts, or at the very least, very small breasts in mind. It comes in small, medium and large, which is a lingerie manufacturer’s way of telling you that it’s about as supportive as some wet tissue paper in a high wind. No, this is a brassiere designed to do one thing: keep its playful promises and bring pleasure to the wearer.

When pondering the richness of lingerie, one should never forget the many silky sleepwear sets that you can wear whilst you drift of into a world of lingerie dreams. From full length nightgowns to shorter babydolls, there really is sleepwear available for every mood and season. In this article I’m featuring some of the wonderful silk chemises made by Alexander Del Rossa. Not only are they truly beautiful, I find that there is something almost architectural about them. They don’t look good by accident, they sweep and cling and enhance by design.

Classic 100% Silk Chemise Nightgown

This classic nightgown (pictured at the outset of the article) is all about the bosom, and even if you’re not naturally endowed with one, you’ll find that the *ahem* engineering of this item makes the most of whatever you have, even if it’s Schwarzenegger style pecs.

Classic 100% Silk Chemise Nightgown with Chiffon Trim

The chiffon trim does make this nightgown look a little dress like, but it does so in a stylish 1920′s flapper style sort of way that I find hard to resist.

Classic 100% Silk Chemise Nightgown with Lace Trim

Last, but certainly not least, a lace trim nightgown that’s a little playful and a little naughty. The sheerness of the lace makes the gown a little shorter (well, the part that covers your body from prying eyes anyway.)

Long 100% Silk Chemise Nightgown with Lace and Chiffon Accents

Did I say the lace trim nightgown was the last? I couldn’t leave this article without at least mentioning the wonderful, almost flamenco inspired long chiffon iteration of the Alexander Del Rossa nightgown. If you’re looking for something rega, and sweeping, this might just be the nightgown for you.
