Sexy lingerie recommendations for a lumpy bumpy body...?

So... I've been wanting to start this thread for AGES... been too embarrassed :redface: I did consider putting it in adults only but rethought it and decided surely I'm not the only one.

So I'm average weight for height by those dumb BMI things. I'm a size 10-12. I'm lacking a bit in the toning side of things, but I'm working on it. Any excess weight is carried on my hips and thighs (me and millions of other mums right? :lol:) and I seem pretty soft and squishy in these places.

I'm just a bit lumpy and bumpy. My hips are wider and even things that 'fit' well don't really fit... I mean, I always seem to look squeezed into things. It sucks. I still have that hang from the c/s too. It's getting smaller but it's still there.

Maybe I'm just being my own worst critic again. But really, from my angle it looks terrible when I try on underwear or lingerie. I don't really trust any shop assistants :redface: because I just can't seem to get out of my head "they're just telling you what you want to hear so that you'll buy it"...

What kinds of things are flattering to a squishy, soft, lumpy, bumpy woman. I just want to feel and look sexy :(

At times like this I miss my pre-mummy size 6-8 toned and terrific body! *sigh*

I buy most of my lingerie from UndercoverWear, because they go up to size 24-26, occasionally a 28. They have different options in ranges, as in v-string bikini or boyleg knickers, pushup or normal bra, corset top or babydoll. Despite the fact that DH keeps asking me to buy the v-strings, I always buy the babydolls with the boylegs, because I feel like they're more flattering, and I feel sexier in them. And at the end of the day, your partner will always find you sexier when YOU feel sexy :)

They've got an online catalogue, you can just google them. Hope that helps :)

I'm all hips... and i have a little belly pillow under my belly button thanks to J and I LOVE french cut knickers with a wide band - holds things in a bit and they ar every flattering too ;)

Hope I'm not gonna get into trouble... but this is the kinda style i mean

cos the band is wide too, you don't really get that "squeezed in" look, or cutting in anywhere.

Have fun! I need to get some more nice things one of these days too.

:hug: I'm not posting with advice. I'm posting because I know how you feel. You're not alone hon, not by a long stretch.
