Color, Color Everywhere…

It looks like color will be pervading the drawers and racks of your favorite boutiques and department stores this fall.  Color palettes include elegant and opulent jewel tones like deep hued purples, full bodied wines, and strong sapphires as well as rich and robust autumnal shades like spice, poppy, and olive.  Even the absence of color makes a bold statement with luxurious, creamy colors like blush and oatmeal.

Favorite Brands for Color: Zinke, Brulee, Amulette, Affinitas, CLO

It’s All in the Details!

Prints are back!  I’m a huge fan of prints from a little accent to a bold statement.  This fall, prints are airy and ethereal and include feature everything from florals to birds to symbols.  Other favorite details for fall include the timeless eyelash lace, cheeky ruching, flirty ruffles, edgy hardware, and pretty piping.

Favorite Brands for Details: Beautiful Bottoms, Marlies Dekkers, Lelo,  ARI DEIN

Mix it Up

One of my favorite new trends is the concept of mixing and matching.  For all you recessionistas out there, this is the perfect way to maximize your lingerie wardrobe.  From camisoles, chemises, and robes in alternating colorways to solids and patterns with similar color palettes, there are limitless options for creating a unique look.  With so many options, it will be tough to decide!

Favorite Brands for Mixing and Matching: HotMilk, Between the Sheets, La Fee Verte, Amulette

The Romper is Here to Stay!

I’ve proclaimed my love for the romper before and am glad it is here to stay!  This fun and flirty silhouette continues to be a trend in many collections that speaks for itself.

Favorite Brands for Rompers: Else, La Fee Verte, Brulee, Zinke

Vintage Inspired Looks

Many brands are using classic looks of the past and reinventing them to be fitting for the modern woman.  Long lined bras, high-waisted knickers, and wide straps are just a few of the details that characterize this look of years gone by.

Favorite Brands for Vintage Inspired Looks: Dirty Dolls, Made by Niki, La Filled’O, Else

Naturally, I loved it!  Everything from the extravagant clothes to the opulent shoes!  Of course, my eye naturally goes toward the lingerie.  So I couldn’t resist trying to identify every piece.

In a scene early in the movie when Carrie is dining with Mr. Big, I immediately identified the La Fee Verte Infrared Peacock bra peeking out from under her dress!  So fitting for the fashion forward, Mrs. Bradshaw-Preston.  Because this fabulous bra is from the first collection of La fee Verte , it is only available in limited quantities at Catriona Mackechnie.  Stay tuned, however.  Based on popularity, this fabulous bra may be back.  We’ll be the  first to let you know!

What I particularly love about the S/S collection is the variety of unique silhouettes that designer, Adam Sakara, uses to captivate the eye including kimonos, bralettes, tap shorts, rompers, and more.  I also love the versatility of the pieces.  Not only can they be mixed and matched to create new looks, but a number of pieces are able to double as outerwear as well as innerwear.  My favorite innerwear as outerwear piece would have to be the romper.  In both ivory and black, the piece is striking and could easily be incorporated into an outfit for a night on the town.   Another favorite feature of this collection is the subtlety of the colorways.  With simple, yet elegant combinations like black and ivory, black and lavender, gray and pink, and pink and ivory, the intricacy of the design shines through.

Available in sizes 32A – 38DD, this enchanting collection includes convertible to strapless bras and bustiers, full coverage panties, thongs, strings, and sleepwear made from eco-friendly bamboo.  Bras and bustiers retail from $45-$75, panties from $25-$35, and sleepwear and tees from $45 – $125.

La Fee Verte will be in stores this summer including Journelle, Pink Slip, Bits of Lace, and Linda the Bra Lady.  I’ll keep you posted on new developments and new stores as they are added.  Get ready!!!
