Luxury Lingerie Shopping

By far, one of the greatest luxury lingerie lines in the world out there, LOU has come out with a brand new collection for Fall/Winter 2010/11 and I am so excited to share it with you!  LOU is actually one of the few lingerie brands that I have a deep and personal connection with – as in I am in love with every piece from their newest collection.

Not only are these ready-to-wear pieces some of the best simply by the details but the quality that goes into every piece that LOU puts out is definitely incredible.  Take this piece for example, the details that are on here are breathtaking and the color scheme is something that I love.

If you want quality in luxury mixed together in one brand, LOU is the brand that you should be looking to!  More in the next blog!

Now that we have talked a little bit about Lascivious in the last blog – let’s explore another piece out of their brand new collection.  Not only is this piece uniquely made, with all of the straps and whatnot, but it is also sexy.

The reason that this piece is so sexy is because it still leaves the illusion of mystery because it does not uncover every single piece.  Men and women alike like that.  They like the fact that their women are not nude already – after all, that is the entire point of lingerie right?

If you want mystery, beauty and high-style, Lascivious lingerie is definitely the right choice for you!

When I think of the word luxury – the first brand that comes to my mind in the way of lingerie is Lascivious.  Lascivious lingerie is actually a British label and they have actually cut some beautiful pieces for 2010 in their brand new collection.  Between this blog and the next, we are going to go through some of the looks and what exactly they are.

One of the first looks up is actually dubbed Natalie.  This particular look is actually soft and stretchy crape and it features some French leavers lace.  The latest collection from Lascivious actually features six different looks and they are all named after different girls.

This mini-collection is not just full of luxury but the there is also a sense of modern and sophistication in it as well.

If you want your lingerie to be sexy and functional, then you should check out the wide, wild, smokin’ hot world of corsets and bustiers.

They can really slim you down, which is always a big plus. Also, they can be worn as actual clothing. Little is sexier, for instance, than a corset and your favorite pair of jeans. Besides that, corsets and bustiers give great support in addition to slimming down both your belly and your hips.

Chemises and mini dresses can be functional as well, if you choose one short enough. Otherwise, they offer a lot of coverage, which may make you feel more comfortable.

They also have the potential for a whole lot of sex appeal, depending on what type you choose.

There is not just one kind of lingerie out there, you know. There are all different kinds. If you want to find out what kind will flatter your body the most, then it is absolutely imperative you know what is out there and how it will — or will not — flatter your body.

For instance, unless you are comfortable with showing off a whole lot of your bod, you may not want to go with the standard bra and panty combo. After all, your stomach, butt, thighs, and hips are all incredibly visible.

If you are looking for a bit more coverage and something that will hide the problem areas, a babydoll may be a better idea for you. It is floaty and feminine but sexy and stylish.

Now that you have seen the sexy, sexy side of Christmas lingerie, let’s take a dive onto the other side and let you see exactly what you could have if you are just a little conservative.  This is just one of the many examples of a piece of lingerie for Christmas for the girl that is of a little mystery and does not want to show you everything.

The Christmas theme is still definitely there and it is still one sexy number but it is sexy in a different way.  This piece is certainly great for any girl that is looking to drive her man a little wild and strip for him.

If that sounds like your girlfriend or wife, by all means – get her something just like this and watch the fun happen!

Christmas is not only a time of getting but it is also a time of giving and when you are looking for lingerie for that special lady in your life … I can tell you for sure that choosing the right Christmas lingerie is a difficult chore.  I can help you though and that is what we are going to talk about in the next couple blogs.

For one, when you are purchasing lingerie that is Christmas themed, you want to consider the person that you are buying it for.  Christmas-themed lingerie can be cheesy but it can also be extremely sexy … as this little number is.

When you are looking for a more conservative girl though, you might want to consider something that covers a little more.

These days, naturally, the trousseau is much more modern. In most cases, there are few, if any, “practical” items; that is, the items used for making the new home are not found in the modern day trousseau. Now, more lingerie is included, plenty of nightwear, as well as some luxurious items meant to treat the bride, the groom, and both at the same time. There are lush toiletries, excellent makeup, or even treats like chocolate.

Back to lingerie, however, merely packing panties and bras simply will not cut it. You should have a bridal set, including panties, bra, slip, negligee, and nightgown. This is traditionally worn on the day and night of the wedding, respectively.

Other appropriate items include a housecoat or bed jacket, slippers, stockings, and pajamas.

You have picked out the cake. You have the perfect dress. The flowers are all in order. The venue has been chosen. The bridesmaid dresses and tuxes are all decided.

But what about the bridal trousseau? What about the lingerie you are taking on your honeymoon?

The word “trousseau” is French in origin; it comes from the word “trousse,” which translates into “bundle.” Back in the day, the trousseau included what you may today think of as the hope chest collection. It consisted of everything the bride owned and needed to set up her new home. Typically, pieces of lingerie were by and large handmade, although the Victorians, who made the whole idea of the trousseau much more elaborate, also enhanced the lingerie involved.

So what goes into the modern honeymoon trousseau? Well, keep reading!

Victoria’s Secret has done it again – they have actually come up with a push-up bra that will not only make you increase your cup-size by two sizes but your bust will actually look incredible too.  This is a brand new bra – and it is in stores right now.  The brand new Victoria’s Secret Miraculous Push-Up Bra is making waves everywhere!

Basically how it works is that the bra is really padded so that it can be worn really comfortably and is completely seamless, which means you can wear it with pretty much anything.  The straps are actually convertible as well, and can be worn a number of different ways.

The satin knot actually is used for a little extra push up and a little extra cleavage with just a simple twist.
