Beauty is More Than Just Skin Deep…

We've all heard that saying "beauty is only skin deep" yet many women simply do not understand the true meaning of this quote. Ones physical beauty can be quite superficial and believe it or not its just not as important as a person's emotional and intellectual attributes. Some women believe that if they are not pretty enough that they won't look sexy in lingerie. First of all, in my own person opinion…that's hogwash. Beauty doesn't define who you are as a person. Beauty isn't about who you are on the surface.

Today, many women find beauty in lingerie. Lingerie is more than just an undergarment. It is accepted in the world of fashion and today the fashion industry has hit an all time high leaving the million dollar industry by totally surpassing it and pushing through to the billion dollar industry. Most of us women see buying new lingerie a necessity and shopping online for sexy lingerie is increasing every day thus making it far easier for women to select their desired undergarments in privacy!

Lingerie is available in a wide variety of fabrics, vivid colors and styles, nonetheless, lingerie has not been yet entirely made as available in the plus size market. Sure it has come a long over the past several years however with the plus size industry growing at such a rapid pace, women who fall into this category are still being over looked.

With this being said, some women love slipping into sexy lingerie and then again, some women think that they are not the type or right size or fit to wear such undergarments. Let me tell you, if you wake up every day and put on a bra and panties you are already wearing lingerie so buy a sexy bra set that makes you feel pretty and sexy!

Fill that lingerie drawer with a variety of women's intimate apparel so that every day when you put it on you look and feel great! What if you are a bit insecure about wearing lingerie? If this sounds like you, it's time to work on your confidence level. You certainly do not need to buy something that you aren't going feel good wearing. Lingerie is also something as simple as a corset. Many women wear corsets as a fashion statement with a pair of blue jeans and some simple accessories.

Confidence is something that is crucial with women of all ages and of all sizes. When you are confident, it shines far more than ones beauty. Beauty is not rewarded if you are a size 2. Beauty is redeemed by how good you feel about yourself on the inside as well as the outside. Looks are only skin deep. True beauty is something inside of you that is a special trait of who you are as a person.

There are some women that have a glow about them and are they are happier than most. You have to feel good about yourself. There is a certain lack of confidence that many woman have and often I have to ponder the thought as to why? Some feel insecure, some are shy, some women are not used to being so forward, and some women feel like because they are not the perfect size that they don't matter.

Beauty comes in all size and in all colors. If you are a women who loves to look at lingerie yet feels that you aren't the type or right size to wear it lose that thought right now!

The Supply and Demand for Plus Size Intimate Apparel

A lot of people conceive the plus size woman to be overweight and they totally misconstrue what a plus size woman is. Many people that are both arrogant and ignorant are out of touch with the real world. Why do 9 out of 10 assume that plus size means for fat women? 'Fat' is not a word that I am fond of nor do I use it in my vocabulary because as a young girl and into my teenage years all of my girl friends were over weight. Back then you were called over weight, nor plus size. When people use the word fat, or obese they are sending mixed messages and really need to be set straight on what a plus size definition entails.

Plus size does not mean that a woman is fat, obese, over weight, etc. Plus size could mean that a woman has a larger body build, and when I say build I mean frame type. Brooke Shields is a plus size woman but she is also a model and no one sees her as fat. In fact, most people would never know that she is even a plus size. The phrase plus size is a general term given to women who wear a certain size, or who are proportioned differently. This term varies in our country (USA) in comparison to other countries.

My big beef is that people are of different sizes and not any two women are the same size, so why are the plus size women being mistreated? We are all built differently. Our sizes could be because its in our genetics, or that we had children and our bodies have changed. Our hips blow out and our belly because a bit saggy. Child birthing is not a simple procedure. Our boobs may droop or get too big, our hips expand, and our waistline stretches. Women go through menopause and women go through depression causing the need for prescriptions that may contain drugs that can in fact also cause weight gain. Some women eat because they stress too much which leads to weight gain.

Whatever the cause, plus size women need larger clothing and with the average American woman now wearing an average size of a 14, accounting for nearly 68% of the population, this size chart is tipping the scales at retail stores, and yet retail stores are refusing to sell plus size clothing and intimates. My questions is why? Why when this is a $18 billion dollar industry is it so damn difficult to find plus size apparel and lingerie?

 Retailers simply don't want to carry larger sizes thus leaving the plus size woman, (I prefer to call her the curvy gal) with limited options. They seem to think that this is like that of a phase that too shall pass. News flash; the percentage of plus size woman is increasing, not decreasing. It now becomes the chain of supply and demand. There are those stores that sell women's plus size clothes and lingerie but that comes with a cost. These retailers or even smaller boutiques know that women don't have a lot of options so they jack the prices up forcing the plus size woman to spend extra money because she loves the product and sees no other choice because so little companies carry the merchandise.

Most retail stores have taken on the snub-nose attitude stating that they don't have to carry plus size anything. The truth of the matter lies here; they are hurting themselves and losing out BIG TIME on sales because they don't want to tarnish their images.

My stores image is based on the curvy gal. Our plus size online boutique is designed for all of the woman whom are 'curvy' that want to look and feel pretty without having to pay high amounts out of pocket. Simply Luscious Lingerie is one of the only plus size intimate apparel stores that will NOT break your bank. We are an online plus size boutique for the 'curvy gal' with prices that are discounted at nearly our wholesale costs so that you can afford to buy not just one piece, rather 3 or 4 for what you may spend on 1 or 2 elsewhere. Visit our boutique. Look at our selection and our prices. The supply and demand for plus size lingerie is not an issue at Simply Luscious Lingerie. Our goal is to offer new fresh trendy plus size intimate apparel hat will keep our customers happy and feeling confident. Soon our plus size lingerie store will become one with its sister store Simply Delicious Lingerie. Over the next several months we will make this transition as we introduce our designers that extend their lingerie sizes ranging from S-5X.
