All around us we are seeing the emergence of a focal design element – the bow. It may be very subtle.  A prominent trimming for intimate apparel, bows are being added to the back of a thong, on a bra strap or placed between bra cups for a finishing touch. The message this conveys could be "I am a gift" and invites one to be “unwrapped." The Affintas Ingrid Lace Underwire Bra expresses just this idea. A small bow placed between the lace bra cups adds a sweet touch to this underwire bra. The matching Ingrid lace boy short flaunts bow details on both legs. The inspiration for these details proves a trend in the making. The result is feminine, delicate lingerie to wear and show off. Affinity Bras - Ingrid Lace

Look inside your lingerie drawer.  Do you notice anything missing?  If you have not already stocked up on boyshorts this season you are missing out on this new trend.  For some women boy shorts are more comfortable than thongs and come in a variety of fabrics including cotton, mesh, nylon, lace and microfiber to complement everyone’s lifestyle.  Boy shorts offer minimal panty lines making them a staple for every day wear.  Even the Felina style 351, which has scalloped edges on the rear, is constructed to make panty lines invisible.  Try wearing them under short dresses or skirts for a fun and flirty feel.  Low rise boy shorts can even be worn under jeans so no fabric peeks out of your waist line.  Boy shorts do not have to be purely for comfort either.  They can be feminine and alluring when covered in lace.  One of our favorites for special occasions is the Jezebel Hugs and Kisses boy short, which is made of a stretch floral ...

Fashion Tip: Nippies by Bristols 6
2007-10-30 14:58:00
So, what do you do when you need to cover up your essentials but want something  sexy, something fun, something that makes you feel good? Try the Bristols 6 Nippies. While it is revealing to show cleavage it is more sexy to show less breast – think of the dress J Lo wore at the grammies. The hint of the breast was what kept us tuned it. A deep v cut dress, an off the shoulder dress or a sheer mesh top make wearing a bra basically impossible and showing everything can be TOO revealing. Putting band aids and tape over your nipples is a turn off and uncomfortable. The Bristols 6 Nippies come in fun colors and shapes. They are self adhesive and can be worn when a bra just won’t do. If you are just feeling funky and fun, or have the perfect dress and just need to cover up your nipples, try the sequin stars or the turquoise butterflies and feel how sexy they can be. Bristols 6 Nippies are available in three styles, Butterlies, Stars and Hearts and all styles...
