Some very bright sparks have combined our two favourite things - Twitter and orgasms - to create a unique shared experience that is sure to be a worldwide success - the Twittergasm.

On the 4th of July at 15.16 GMT (21.16 CST), all Twitter users are invited to experience the most fantastic orgasm, then Tweet about it!

But don't worry - if your brain power has switched off and your fingers don't work at that point; you can Tweet before, during or after your orgasm instead!

The idea of the Twittergasm is to bring people together in pleasure. It's designed to give pain and suffering a little hiatus and encourage happiness and bliss instead.

Anyone can join in but it's asked that you pledge a little bit of your hard earned cash to charity to make the pleasure spread even further!

Although the LoveHoney Twitter account has currently been suspended (for being too popular - yes, we are as confused as you), LoveHoney is getting involved by donating some fabulous BASIC Sex Toys as Twittergasm prizes!

Yes, you can win a prize just for having an orgasm!

But why is the Twittergasm arranged for the 4th of July at 15.16 GMT? Well, the 4th of July is Independence Day in America. This means Americans all over the world will be letting off fireworks and celebrating.

Imagine what an ego massage it would be to orgasm, then hear fireworks popping and people cheering - 'Woohoo! You've done a great job! Nice orgasm!'

Find out more about the Twittergasm through Lisa 'The Orgasm Coach' Turner's brilliant blog - and get involved!

It's unbelievably warm outside, even in the shade.

The second you step out of the shower, you need another one because you're already hot and sweaty.

Your make-up is running down your face and your hair either looks fried or greasy, with no happy medium.

All you want to do is walk around in your underwear all day, fanning yourself with anything you can get your hands on!

Whilst bra and panties may not be a viable option for a day in the office, you can strip down and show off with LoveHoney's fabulous range of underwear which can be worn as outerwear!

The key to wearing lingerie as clothing this July, is to go simple and classy.

Every woman is wearing strappy tops and halter-necks this summer but for something a little special that will make you stand out from the crowd, swap your 5 year old H&M vest top for a slinky and sexy camisole.

G-World have produced a fabulous range of camisoles which can be worn as dual purpose underwear and outerwear.

The G World Romantic Camisole and Shorts can be worn as a beautiful base layer under a light and airy cotton shirt or can be worn on its own with a pair of understated black trousers - gorgeous office-wear which is sure to impress!

Due to its dual opaque layers, you're not revealing too much flesh but the underwired cups and delicate mesh detailing keeps it feminine and light - ideal for stuffy offices or shop floors.

Another alternative is the brilliant Music Legs Opaque Striped Mini Dress. The nautical look is very 'in' this season, so this naughty little number is sure to match something you already own.

Despite what Trinny and Susannah tell you, horizontal stripes can be very flattering on all figures.

The stripes actually help to enhance shapely curves and minimize waistlines, whilst giving slimmer figures a boost in all the right areas.

Team the Music Legs Opaque Striped Mini Dress with a pair of skinny jeans, ballet pumps and a set of bright red beads and you've got that sexy nautical look down cold! Then in the evening, slip out of your work-friendly jeans and you have a lingerie-style dress which is sure to wow onlookers in the clubs and bars.

If you're looking for a piece of underwear to be worn as outerwear on a night out, then you need the Dreamgirl Fully Reversible Satin Basque Set.

Available in regular and plus sizes, this sensual satin set cinches you and pushes you out! Hips, love handles and tummies are all subtly hidden whilst breasts and feminine curves are emphasised due to the strong plastic boning.

This makes perfect underwear as outerwear as it's opaque yet revealing, simple yet classy and detailed but not overembelished.

It also has two very wearable and stylish sides which allow you to switch it round if you accidently spill your drink on it or fancy a change of outfit half way through the night!

So what are the key elements to pulling off wearing underwear as outerwear:

- Confidence! You know that what you're wearing is technically classed as lingerie - but no one else does. With this thought in mind, wear your outfit with pride and you'll definitely receive a compliment or two!

- Tone it down. Most work places have a dress code, so wearing nipple tassles and crotchless undies is generally a no-no. Instead, try wearing your lingerie under or over your work outfit. A simple corset such as the Cottelli Classic Satin Corset looks fabulous over a white shirt while the Dreamgirl Satin and Mesh Ruffle Trim Baby Doll Set makes for a fabulously supportive base layer on cool summer evenings.

- Day to night time. If you're planning on going out straight after work, underwear as outerwear allows you to do that with class, style and sophistication. If you don't feel comfortable wearing lingerie in the office, then simply fold it up and put in your bag for later - some pieces are small enough to fit in even the tiniest of clutch bags!

EXTRACT

I'm twenty-seven. I'm a writer, and I'm doing this for two reasons. (1) My hubby is asleep, and I want to get horny enough to masturbate before I join him. (2) I'm egotistical enough to think my fantasies are going to be adopted by others.

Before I get into fantasies, a little background. I have masturbated since I was sixteen, and I've been with a dozen or so men. David, my husband, is the best, but he's a bit of an MCP sometimes, so being really frank is proceeded slowly.

Several years ago, a female friend and I admitted to each other that we indulged in masturbation, and soon we began doing it in the same room. We sort of fed on each other's sounds, which we controlled somewhat, but nonetheless could not suppress. Also, we dug on the idea that we were masturbating, but weren't alone. We always kept it darkened, but there was always enough light to allow us to see, at least in shadows, the other one with her legs spread wide open and a hand moving, caressing, rubbing a wet cunt. We especially liked the sound of the 'wetness' - that squishy sound. I think women should get into this - approach the subject kiddingly if you have to, and if lesbianism hangs you up (it does me a little), just keep in mind that you're not making love with another woman. It's just a bit of voyeurism!

Last year, I did something I slightly regret. I asked a girl I know to go to bed with me just because I wanted someone to suck on my nipples while I masturbated. I just had to have someone to suck my tits hard and watch me lay there spread open so wide rubbing my clitoris and stretching and impaling myself so deliciously on a long thick candle! She was great!

As to fantasies, I imagine that five lesbians come over and work on me. I've got one sucking and licking each breast, two holding my legs as wide apart as they can while the fifth eats me. This one produces a very large dildo. I protest that I can't take one that big, then the two holding my legs assure me that I'll open up for it and love it that big and to relax. Number five sucks my clit and just pushes it in a little. Soon I'm begging her to go all the way. Put it in me! Deep. I want it deep inside me! It's great.

I also imagine in my fantasies that I'm at the Masters and Johnson clinic with their 'fucking machine'.

Sometimes I fantasise that my husband and I are in a film showing deprived women what they're missing, so they can get their lovers on the ball!

Sometimes I just remember my friend staring at me while I masturbated in broad daylight. It was wonderful to lay there - cunt wide open, masturbating deliciously, nipples tight and pointy while another woman watched sighing, "Wow, you don't need any help. Look at those tits! That dildo is so big. I'll bet it feels great."

Forbidden Flowers is available now and for one month only, it comes with a free Crystal Clear Mini Vibrator, worth £5.99!

Most people are well aware of how to clean their sex toys but not necessarily how to store them. Whereas a discreet box under the bed or a secret bedside drawer is always a great way to keep your sex toys hidden, they're often not the most organised of places and can result in your play things getting damaged.

Separate Living Quarters

The first thing to realise is that materials have a tendency to react with each other and for this reason; all your sex toys should be stored separately. Now, when I say separately, I don't mean at opposite ends of the room but a little space between each one is always a good idea.

Sex toy materials - particularly jelly, rubber and latex - are often manufactured in a way that leaves behind a slight residue from the chemical process used to form them. Although these materials are safe for bodily use, they are quite reactive when combined with each other or opposing materials.

If you mix your jelly, rubber, latex and silicone sex toys, you may soon discover that they start to look melted or slightly misshapen so make sure they're kept apart!

The LoveHoney range of sex toy cases are perfect for storing your sex toys neatly and safely and the Extra Large Adult Sex Toy Case even has individual compartments - which is exactly what you need!

A cheap and cheerful alternative is to use cardboard boxes and envelopes (LoveHoney discreet packaging is ideal for this!). Simply place each of your sex toys in a separate envelope, seal and store in a cardboard box. You can even write on the front of the envelope which sex toy is inside it for quick and easy retrieval in the heat of the moment!

Give Them a Loving Home

Another thing to consider when storing your sex toys is the environment they're kept in. All sex toys should be stored away from heat sources and direct sunlight in a cool, clean, dry location. It is also highly advised that you remove the batteries after each use and store them separately too. This will help to prolong the life of your favourite sex toy and keep it feeling and working like new every time.

All sex toys with electrical components should be stored in similar conditions but make sure to avoid any areas where there is excess moisture or damp - the bathroom cabinet is a big no-no!

Cleanliness is Next to Godliness

Finally, make sure your sex toys are cleaned before and after you use them. By spraying them down with LoveHoney Advanced Sex Toy Cleaner and rinsing with warm water, you will prevent dust and bacteria build up and keep them looking, feeling and - dare I say it - smelling like new!

As part of LoveHoney's orgasm month we've recruited top sexpert Lisa Turner, the world renowned Orgasm Coach, to give us an insight into the complete climax!

This week Lisa is giving us her advice on male, female and couple friendly sex toys, what they do and how they can help you to achieve the kind of orgasm that leaves you feeling energised and glowing from the inside out.

As Lisa explains:

"Sexual energy is the most potent on the planet. The key is to access it, master it and harness it. Once you have harnessed it, you can use it in any way you choose. But first you need to access it and sex toys are a great way to do this."

Read on to find out Orgasm Coach Lisa Turner's top ten sex toys:

The most recent poll here on LoveHoney asked the question "If you couldn't have any form of sexual contact, what would be the next best thing?" and the results were both interesting and hilarious.

Not only did we discover that 26% of people would resort to vigorous exercise if they couldn't have sex, we also discovered that there are some very strange ways of solving sexual frustration that we never even considered before.

Using the 'other' option, we asked for you to write what you thought was the next best thing to sex and the results ranged from reading, dancing and eating chocolate to... well... the downright hilarious! Here are a few choice cuts of what people would do, instead of having sex:

- Fishing. I've got a 14 metre pole!
- Fight chavvy youths
- Bell-ringing
- Radio controlled flying
- Playing ukulele
- Being a eunuch
- Hard drugs

So there you have it folks. If you're feeling sexually frustrated and there's nothing you can do about it, pick up your ukulele and get playing. If it proves an effective method of sexual relief, we may even consider selling them here at LoveHoney!
