The Bristols 6 girls have a point – and they have a point in style. Their nipple covers really aren’t trashy or cheap – and the label works hard to maintain a place on the stlyish/luxurious end of the market. Thanks to celebrity clients like Mariah Carey, Gwen Stefani, and Christina Aguilera I’m sure they’re able to convince quite a few people…

More about these lovely things on the Brisols 6 website!

Simone has said that Kiss Me Quick is “giving women something that is both classy and sexy, not Gent’s Magazine sexy, something more vintage, something with a bit more tease, a bit more of a thrill…” Her pieces have easily 10 times more coverage than oh-so-last-year thongs and strings. Most are done in deep, rich, jewel like tones and come with plenty of satin.

She has a broad range of pasties. Some are flowers, some have ornate details like the saucier side of the wardrobe truck from Sophia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette , and others have a formal, almost oriental feel.

Kiss Me Quick is available through mail order and in retail stores in Australia. Simone’s stockists include

• Dirty Pretty Things, Sydney, www.dirtyprettythings.com.au
• House of Fetish, Sydney, www.houseoffetish.com.au
• Antons, Melbourne, Melbourne Central

Love Jones is a perfect fit inside the Hard Rock with its rocker chic atmosphere. The walls are painted a bright orange with hot pink clubs, spades, diamonds, and hearts adorning them. As you look above, sexy crossed legs peek from ceiling wearing fun (and sometimes racy) tights in spider, floral, or fishnet prints. Exciting and enticing, Love Jones enthralled us all!

I’m sure you are curious to the offerings and the purchases at Love Jones. Please understand that I am under Bachelorette Party Oath to protect the names of the innocent (and not-so-innocent). All names provided are aliases!

Honey is a wife and mother of 1. While she loves motherhood, it has stifled the flavor in her lingerie drawer a bit, so she was looking for a little something to spice it up! Still wanting to be practical, we instantly decided that Honeydew was the perfect choice. With a feminine cut and a flirty, lacy edge, Honey knew she would be able to balance her need for comfort with her desire for sexiness. She chose the solid black and white mesh boyshort as well as and the leopard Rumba Panty with ruffles. The verdict – Honey tested, husband approved. She confirmed that they were comfortable, yet sexy.

Vixen is a busy college student. She was looking for something fun and comfortable to fit in with her hectic life. I introduced her to both Hanky Panky and Honeydew. She was very excited about finding the Honeydew Mesh Boyshorts in her favorite leopard pattern. She chose the ones with red lace!

Hennessy, a not-so-newlywed, who is always willing to try something new, was the daring lady who purchased red fishnets and Silver Sequin bloomers by Leg Avenue. This lovely lady is not just sassy, but also very sweet. For her sweet side, she purchased Honeydew Mesh Boyshorts in Leopard, like Vixen, and a beautiful, silky “Kiss Me” eye mask by Mary Green.

Peaches, the bride-to-be, chose the signature Love Jones thong to go with the theme of the outing. She also chose the above mentioned Silver Sequin bloomers by Leg Avenue. What goes with those? None other than Nippies by Bristols6, previously mentioned on TLP. The verdict – still out. She is still honeymooning!

Since I didn’t win big at the slots, I satisfied my lingerie fix by helping others choose new special somethings. There’s always the next time with the next bride-to-be!

*All of the above listed items are available at the Love Jones lingerie shop at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas and at local department stores and boutiques near you. Special thanks to Elizabeth at Love Jones for all her help and to the lovely ladies who so eagerly took my suggestions!

I recently tried the Pure Style Girlfriends Pick-Me-Up Breast Lift-Up Tape. After trying numerous products like this before (with little success), I was interested to see how this brand would work for me. In the past, I had tried adhesive bra cups that taped from the bottom, which left a natural shape to still be desired. So I tried the kind that taped from the top. And still, I was not quite impressed with the shape or lift. So I was curious as to how Pure Style Girlfriends would be different. The first thing I noticed that was different was the Patent Pending tape. Rather than forming cups just below or just above the breast, the tape is designed to lift from underneath. I believe it is this vertical lift that sets this product a part from the rest. I was able to have both lift and shape. While the product is ideally suited for A-D cups, I was suprised at the success I experienced with the product. Additionally, I was impressed with the Pure Style website as it features a quick clip of how to use the tape.

So, check out Pure Style Girlfriends soon. Let us know what you think in our forums. To find a store near you, enter your zip code here, or purchase online at Bare Necessities.

Anyway — I actually think this is interesting. I mean — I like the whole bra-less look, but it’s just not realistic on certain occasions. There’s just one little thing: it’s been done before! Oh well — I suppose the marketing budget Wonderbra has (apparently they’re a Sara Lee brand, oh my) will be the difference between top or flop in the nipple bra area…

Big thanks to Polly and Libération (in French).

Despite the varied opinions, I think we can all agree that there are times where a little modesty is necessary. Mandolina posted about the fun-shaped and ever so stylish Bristols 6 nippies not too long ago. Looking for another option? Try Low Beams. These innovative nipple concealers, created by the Commandos people (my favorite!), are latex-free and contain an “ouch-less” center. Humorously sold on key rings, they can be worn with or without a bra and even under bathing suits! At 5 pairs for $10, it’s a steal!

Headlights not a problem, but need a little…enhancement or perhaps a little push me up? Check out Takeouts and Cleavage Cupcakes for a less permanent enhancement option (which these fantastic folks call “the better boob job”). Keep your straps and hems in line with Matchsticks – easy-to-transport double stick tape strips that maintain your modesty…when you want to!

Find the entire collection on the Her Look site as well as Shopbop.com and Lisa Kline.

Take a look at these nippies from their spring 2007 collection (click the image to see a lot more!):

I give these two thumbs up, and so do some of their celebrity fans including Paris Hilton, Tori Spelling and Pamela Anderson. I’ll do my best to get my hands on a set of these, and will report back when I’ve tried them on! In the mean time, don’t forget to check out their pretty website!
