Lovely lingerie

Find out how to make the most of your assets no matter what your shape, size and style with our guide to the sexiest lingerie in town

In shape
You don't have to be a stick insect to look saucy in your undies this Valentine's Day. With the right fit and a bit of confidence, cleavage and curves bring itsy bitsy lingerie alive. So if you're a little on the voluptuous size and want to be a sex goddess come 14 February, don't let the scales tell you otherwise. Remember it's all about attitude and you'll have no problem pulling it all off.

Blooming marvellous
Feminine, flouncy and girlier than ever, bloomers are back with all of the joys of spring. Cath Kidson style florals, crisp white cottons and vintage lace trimmings will bring out the English rose in any dreamy Valentine in search of all things pretty.

A little suggestion
If you're stuck on what style to choose this Valentine's, give your man something he can see through and it's guaranteed to make his heart beat faster. Go all the way with a see-through set or offer a lesser sneak preview - even a hint is certain to send him wild.

Bold and beautiful
If you want to make a statement but don't feel comfy sporting lashings of lace, fuss and frills, don't be fooled by Red Herring's name. Playful and bright, their slightly sporty, super trendy style makes only the simplest of statements, leaving you free to have some fun without the flounce.

Queen of Hearts
Nothing puts the special into a special occasion more than getting to the heart of the event. Which is exactly why Marks and Spencer's have pulled out the stops and created their very own Valentine 'Heart Sicily' lingerie. So now there's no excuse not to look pretty in pink, wear hearts on everything but your sleeve and really do St Valentine proud.

Soft and silky
Crisp cottons, raunchy rayons and classy chiffons can all make you look a million dollars, but laze around in satin and you'll feel it too. So whether you're on your own or with that special someone this Valentine's Day, give yourself a little treat with that touch of opulence, and lounge in the lap of luxury.
Odille lurex lace bra, £20, lurex lace boyshorts, £10 and China Rose satin kimono, £30. All at Oasis, www.oasis-stores.com, tel. 01865 881 986.
