How To Feel Confident When Dressing Yourself (Starting With Your Underwear!)

[ AD – This blog post is a paid for partnership with Simply Be ]

I think you girls will agree with me when I say that finding the right underwear for you plays a VITAL part of how you feel in yourself and your outfit! With Valentines Day coming up, now more than ever is the time to get your lingerie sorted so you can feel good in whatever you’re wearing!

Let’s be honest, there’s nothing worse than those knickers that give you a muffin top, or the slightly-too-small-bra that creates that cute four-boob effect. I find that If I’m wearing a killer outfit with the wrong underwear then I’m not going to feel as good as I should if I’m constantly re-arranging myself or worried if people can see my bra straps peeking out.

I’ve partnered with Simply Be to share some of my favourite lingerie sets, how they fit seamlessly under my outfits and how my confidence shines through my clothes when wearing them! Simply Be is my one-stop shop for lingerie (and swimwear too!), if you’ve not checked them out then you absolutely HAVE to – they have an amazing sizing range (they stock cup sizes A-L and up to back size 56”).

First up is this gorgeous white lace set bra and brief set from Figleaves Curve (Simply Be stocks some incredible brands including Figleaves which are my other go-to’s for lingerie!), the French knickers are stunning and so flattering and the bra is SO comfy! The bra fits perfect, and sits seamlessly against your skin which works really well under low cut shirts or dresses.

I adore this lingerie set and think that it’s great proof that sexy lingerie can look and work well under clothes, you don’t need to wear a plain bra / seamless knickers to create a flattering silhouette. It’s paramount that you feel sexy from the underwear up, to project confidence with your outfit!

What I'm wearing: White lace bra | White lace briefs | Leopard print dress (worn as a kimono)

What I'm wearing: Red bra | Red high waisted briefs 

The second look is this super beautiful deep red ‘Gabi Fresh Playful Promises’ bra and high waisted briefs – I have to say this set for me had the WOW factor, it was comfy, flattering and sexy – I really love high waist briefs, they make me feel really confident as the skim over my hips and create a lovely silhouette!

If you’re looking to add a little sex appeal to your outfit then wear this bra with a shirt so you can see the strap detailing, if you’re not feeling so daring then wear something high necked over the bra – knowing that you look and feel great underneath!

I wanted to trial a couple of Simply Be pieces over my lingerie sets to show you girls just how much difference a good set of lingerie can work wonders on your silhouette and confidence this Valentine’s Day!

Here's what i'm wearing over my lingerie!

Tell me – do you think how you feel in your lingerie affects your confidence? Which lingerie set is your favourite? Could you see yourself wearing the white or red set?
