Vinyl Lingerie

Vinyl lingerie gives the bad girl (or guy) in us all a chance to come out and play. Whether it's worn under or over your clothes, you're begin given the opportunity to feel edgier.

Release your inner bad girl with black vinyl.

There are a few pluses to vinyl lingerie:

• It's not leather, so it's not horribly expensive.
• Because it's relatively inexpensive, you can afford to buy more of it.
• It's easy to keep clean.
• You can make a statement in the bedroom.
• It is different from all the mesh and lace get-ups you probably have in your lingerie drawer. It's always fun to try something new.
• The undergarments come in different styles—from bustiers to panties.
• You can mix and match pieces to look edgy and sweet or like a dominatrix.

You will of course want to read the garment tag specific to the item you're about to launder, but here are a few tips for cleaning vinyl lingerie:

• You can use mild soap and warm water, but you'll need to hand wash.
• You probably won't want to trust your vinyl to a machine, even though the material is fairly tough. To get the most wear out of it, washing by hand is best.
• Vinyl isn't very porous, though, so it will be easy to handle it on your own with just the soap and water.
• Let it air dry unless the care tag says otherwise.

Cotton lingerie is usually best for day-to-day wear, especially on your bottom half. You won't want to wear your vinyl panties all day, every day, but for a few hours at a time, you should be fine. Cotton allows your skin to breathe, whereas vinyl and leather don't. They tend to hold in moisture (and they're hot, and not in the sexy way, although they are that, too). That moisture can result in skin irritation or yeast infections.

Vinyl lingerie is not the easiest to find, but it's possible to buy online and in specialty lingerie shops. You won't find it at most chains. You would, however, probably be surprised by how many lingerie companies actually do have a lot of vinyl styles:

• HowCool.com has everything from lace-up bras to full catsuits to fit all your shiny, erotic lingerie needs. Want a corset to wear out to the clubs—under your clothes or as your shirt? They have that, too. They even have mini skirts, dresses, and pants in a matching material. International shipping is available.
• FantasiaWear.com is another Web site for all your vinyl needs. Need a garter belt? FantasiaWear.com is at your service. For even more erotic pleasure, you can also shop for matching masks, choker and gloves, to make sure all your fantasies are fulfilled.
• Yandy.com seems like it would be all pink and frills based on the name. Not the case. Yandy has unbelievably hot styles in more than just black vinyl. How about a silver bustier and zipper-front shorts set?

Surprise your lover with a racy vinyl set.

How you wear your vinyl lingerie has a lot more to do with the type of lingerie than the material it's made from. You can almost never go wrong pairing some fishnet thigh highs with your edgier (or not so edgy) pieces. Wear thongs with your corsets and bustiers.

For vinyl pieces specifically, you can pair lace lingerie with them for a sweet and naughty look. Consider a lace bra with vinyl panties or a vinyl corset with girly boy shorts. A full set of black vinyl can be intimidating for first romantic encounters, so you might want to break it up with flirtier styles until your lover gets to know you a bit better.

For going out, you can even wear a vinyl bustier or corset with your blue jeans. Just make sure it's dark out, since that look could be a bit harsh for daytime wear. Vinyl makes great clubwear.

Men can get into vinyl too, it's not just for women. The especially quirky men out there may get into the vinyl penguin pouch look available at FoxyLeather.com. For the more straight-laced, there are vinyl shorts and vinyl thongs.
