toeless 3There have been lots of new inventions in the world of lingerie in general, and the world of stockings in general.

One such innovation are toeless stockings. This gets rid of that undesirable look that occurs when women wear stockings as well as open toed shoes.

Because these stockings have no toes, you see nothing even if you wear a pair of peekaboo pumps.

Of course, there is no saying that you cannot still wear close toed shoes in the spring and summer.

If you choose to go this route, then guess what? You can also still wear traditional stockings.

However, try making them sheer, maybe with a little sparkle! This will give your legs a lovely glistening color!

Alternatives to the Bare Legs Fad: 1

tan 3I hate this whole bare legs trend, and I know a lot of women are there with me. Even if we have awesome, shapely, long, gorgeous legs, not all of us want to go out wearing them bare all the time — especially simply because the style gods up on the fashion version of Mount Olympus tell us we have to.

So how about a few alternatives? Like, if you want to actually try this trend but don’t want to flash off your pale legs or bake in the sun.

Well, here, you have two options. For one thing, you can try sunless tanners. Lotion or spray, with little fuss and a teensy bit of muss, you can have golden skin.

Or leg makeup — also good for covering up tattoos!

Lingerie Trends: Blue Lingerie

sexy-blue-lingerieWhile the color of the lingerie is something that many people do not really think about – one color that seems to be popping up everywhere in the world is blue.  Blue lingerie to me is something that is so different and strange.  Most of the time, when women are looking for lingerie, blue is not usually a color that they go to – red and black even purple sometimes are all colors that women tend to go to … or at least I do, however blue is a color that many women are choosing nowadays.

Blue to me, is very calming and rich – that is something that I love about it.  It truly looks like you are royal when you put on a blue piece of lingerie and I think that might be the key to this particular trend.  Women want to look rich and they want to look like a royal queen in their lingerie and that is what they get when they choose blue.

More trends on the way folks, in the next blog we’ll touch base on some of the wild prints of the season and why those are so popular!

Fichissima by Lialsport

So really, when I saw Fichissima by Lialsport, I thought for sure that I would not like them.  Then I looked at them a little bit more and more and more and well, I found out that Fichissima by Lialsport is incredible and their lingerie is certainly something that is worth my time and worth the money to spent!

One thing that you should know about this lingerie is the fact that it is Italian – which of course makes this all the better, because Italian lingerie is by far better than anything you can purchase anywhere else!

The company itself has over eight hundred stores and they truly are the masters in the field with over forty years experience in the business.  There are tons of companies and designers within this one company too, which really make this lingerie company one of the best!

Pink Remains a True Lingerie Classic

Pink may be last season’s colour but it is still a favourite with lingerie lovers, and whether the “in” colour or not, it is still hot! Certain colours for particular outfits remain classics for all time. Take for example a strand of white pearls or the little black dress, it does not matter the age of the woman or the era, both pieces are elegant and timeless. And pink lingerie is the same. It endures.

Pink is feminine and demure, it is bright and sexy, and it looks great under many outfits. Light pink, hot pink, fuschia, pink with white accents, pink with bold ribbing, and pink with black lace or ribbons can all be gorgeously crafted into exquisite pieces of lingerie. A few examples of how rich and sumptuous the colour can appear are:

  • Vera Wang, from her Bridal Lingerie Collection, offers a long and short gown delicately gathered in the bodice with spaghetti straps and flowing skirt in an intense pink shade called “Dusk Pink”.
  • La Perla has launched its newest underwear collection for fall-winter 2008-09 and offers a hypnotic pink and orange bra and panty set from the MALIZIA Ambizione group. A cute but daring colour combination, the bright orange embroidery outlines silhouettes of flowers to create a mesmerizing pattern.
  • Mommies-to-be look fabulous in pink as well and Aniélina’s new 2009 collection proves this point unquestionably. Pink is predominant in this super pretty line of maternity intimates.
  • Lastly, pink is symbolic. It has come to be known as the brave colour in the fight against breast cancer. In fact, many companies, not just lingerie, manufacture special pink products easily recognized for the cause.

Indeed, there is no doubt that the colour pink will continue to endure.
