By now we are hoping that you have ogled at the glamorous ladies of Sex and the City 2 or if not, you must not miss it! Well it is not the best 2 hours of film but it will be perfect if you are looking for some fun. Fashionistas will love the four females of SATC doing their gazillion wardrobe changes. It is really inspiring to see the beauties and how this movie will help set the trends in the coming months.

We did some sort of detective work and tried to identify the lingerie featured in the flick. Enjoy these great finds:

If you have seen SATC 2, you might remember Carrie Bradshaw dining with Mr. Big? Look through the wine glass and have a glimpse of the Infrared Peacock from La Fee Verte. Don’t you just love how she does layering of the bra as the outerwear.

We also heard that Sarah Jessica Parker selected Fleur of England for the film but we were not able to spot it. Oh, and she also requested the bra to be wrapped after the filming to add to her personal collection.

bright-topWhile there are ruffles that can do the trick, there are also colors that can truly make your bust look a little bit bigger and those are bright colors.  If you opt for bright colors on top and darker colors on the bottom, you are definitely going to even out your body a bit and you are certainly going to make your bust look larger.

If you going for the black and white option, your bottoms should be black and your top should be white that way you can make sure that your body is pretty balanced out.  This illusion will also make your bust look a lot fuller, which is the entire point of course.

You can also choose some small details at the bust, for example, peasant tops are fantastic for this.

What Looks Best on Your Bod? 1

babydoll 3There 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.

La Vie En Rose’s Magnetic Bra: Luxury!

Posted in Bra on October 2nd, 2009 by Heather – Be the first to comment

Lightly-Padded-BraWhat is the worst thing about bras these days?  To me, it is the hook and eye closure that seems to always get in my way.  Personally, I think that this was invented by someone that does not have boobs and therefore does not know just how uncomfortable the hook and eye closure really is.

Now though – you don’t have to worry about it because the Canadian lingerie brand La Vie en Rose actually came up with a new technology!

The magnetic bra has front closure clasps that will keep your boobs in check and I can promise – it doesn’t matter what cup size you are!  The front closure is something that will offer up a smoother and cleaner look and they are only $33.95!

ML_Powderpuff_lMiss Lala Presents… is one of the most feminine lines I have ever seen, filled with sweet but sexy pieces with undeniable romantic tones.

One of my favorite lingerie sets is the Miss Lala Presents… Powder Puff Padded Bra and Frilled Brief.

The bra features leivers peach lace, which is overlaid onto a base of mint colored silk. Not only does it offer wonderful support and a gorgeous shape, but it is exquisitely feminine. It is the best of fashion and function, thanks to light foam padding, underwire, and a beautifully feminine peach bow in the center.

The briefs also feature mint silk as a base with an overlay of leivers peach lace. Its frilled edges are both girly and flirty. In the back, there is a panel of transparent lace for an extra flirty look.

purrfect-pineapples-corset-1-292x347Canada is really becoming popular with their lingerie designers and brands.  Honestly, I did not think that I would find anything in the states like I have in Canada in the way of rocker chick lingerie – Purrect Pineapples for example.  This brand of lingerie is absolutely incredible and they mainly focus all of their attention on the chicks that are more into tattoos than anything else.  One of the coolest things about this brand is that they produce this product without any sweat-shops or animal testing and all of their garments are hand silk-screened.

All of their lingerie is professionally sewn and they are honestly producing some of the highest quality lingerie on the market today.  One thing that they mention on their website is the fact that they take their inspiration from tattoos and Japanese street wear and I love that!

The cool thing?  The price of their lingerie is actually affordable, which for this quality is absolutely unheard of!  So check out Purrect Pineapples!
