Do I Have to Buy a Gift From the Bridal Registry For the Bridal Shower?
Everyone loves a good wedding and more so everyone loves a great bridal shower. The Bride-to-Be gets showered with gifts of love for the new journey she has decided to take on and you get the chance to share that experience with her. A well run Bridal Shower, will at least one month before the bridal shower, have composed a Bridal Registry of the items she and her new partner to be need to help set them up for the future.
However, Bridal Registry's have been known as a cause of concern for many people going to a bridal shower simply because many of the gifts requested are beyond the ability of the guests to buy. So the question now is, "Do I have to Buy a Gift From The Bridal Registry for the Bridal Shower?"
The correct protocol answer is "YES" and "NO".
1. The Role of the Bridal Registry
The role of the bridal registry is simply to tell you what the couple needs in moving forward with their lives together. This is a great insight as to their needs and in away makes it easier for you to buy a gift that they will appreciate. From my wife's bridal shower there were gifts that were really, well poorly chosen and for a couple it is then difficult to know what to do with those items. However, the down side is that often many items brides-to-be put on their Bridal Registry are well and truly out of the range of the people coming.
2. Give What You Can Afford
The reality is that when you are invited to a bridal shower, the honour is as much for you as it is for the bride-to-be, so the correct protocol is that you provide a gift that is inline with what you can afford. For example it would be inappropriate for a person to give a five dollar gift when they earn one million dollars a year but at the same time, it would be inappropriate for someone to spend $1,000 for a gift when they only earn $500 a week. Gift giving must be in proportion to your own financial capacity. There is no point in you going in to debt for a gift, it just simply doesn't make sense.
3. Give Something From The Heart
For many brides, the most precious gift is something treasured from you. For example the best gift from a mother might be Grandmas broach that she wore when she go married. Always give something that means something to you as much as her. This is always the best gift and one that can be treasured for years to come. For many brides being able to pass something like this from generation to generation is just as special as that 50" Plasma Television that will wear out in 12 months anyway.
Over the last ten years with our economies booming, too many people have tried to out spend each other when it comes to giving gifts for Bridal Showers. The key to giving the right gift is to give something from the heart. If giving the bride-to-be a 55" Plasma Television is something from the heart is the right gift then do it, but if buying a $50 bracelet that she can wear on the day is special to you then that is the right gift for her.

How to Look Sexy at a Lingerie Party
Some of the lingerie parties that my team and I have been invited to have been based on a theme, like bondage, fairy lingerie, 80's, fluro or camouflage lingerie. Each of these has its own challenges in choosing the right type of sexy lingerie.
The key with any lingerie party is to look sexy not nasty. Quite often people who go to these parties simply wear the wrong type of lingerie to look sexy. The key to sexy is more is less. That is, often it is better to wear more of an item than less.
For males, going to a lingerie party, the most appropriate attire to wear are satin or silk boxer shorts or long pants and a robe. I will say though, wearing a mankini is not the right type of lingerie for any lingerie party.
For the ladies it can be a little harder depending on your body type. I know that many of my clients do not like the g-string and this is particularly true of our plus size clientele. The key to choosing the right lingerie is to be comfortable. If what you are wearing doesn't make you comfortable then don't wear it.
So what is the solution?
Well let us look at a number of options. If you are a slimmer or thin lady, then wearing a babydoll with a g-string and gown is certainly a great lingerie ensemble to wear. Lets face it, some ladies just don't like either a g-string or thong, and if this is you then, simply substitute it for a pair of satin or silk boxer shorts or long satin pants.
There are lots of different brands of unisex pants available by brands like Dreamgirl.
Alternatively you could have chosen a spandex body suit and stockings with a pair of silk boxer shorts to accentuate your legs and to keep them smooth and silky.
Chemises are another fantastic style of lingerie that you can wear to look sexy to a lingerie party. A chemise can be made of spandex mesh, satin or leather. The chemise is designed similar to a slip but is generally for use in the bedroom. The key issue when choosing a chemise is to make sure that it suits your body type.
If you are a plus size person there are a great range of plus size chemises available. Try to choose one that is appropriate for the party you are going to, like a non-see through chemise for a public party but a more revealing chemise for a private party.
If you really want to look sexy remember these key things -
1. Choose the right shoes
2. Buy a Sexy Piece of Lingerie that suits your body type
3. Accessorise the Lingerie with Costume Jewellery
4. Wear stockings
5. Always wear what you feel comfortable in
6. More is less can be sexy
