Apricot Ripple Beachsuits and Butterscotch Bandeau Babydolls in barely there chiffon make up the collection. With celebrity followings including Kate Hudson and Daisy Lowe this collection is good enough to eat.

S/S 09 also sees the arrival of the underwire bra. A new structured addition to the usual softness so often associated with the brand.

I just love it. Ell & Cee seems to be making this extraordinary romance a huge part of their brand – and they’re making it work perfectly!

You tell me this Janet Reger Couture plunge bra and matching tanga don't just scream out romance!

Janet Reger’s Couture collection is (what’s in a name) the classy, high-end Janet Reger. This summer ‘09 collection – available in selected boutiques right now, is a true stunner.

“Learn the silent language of enticement and become the heroine as the story unfolds, an evocative silk-layered tale.”

Totally different from the bold colors we’re used to see in the Naughty Janet line – the pastels in this retro-like collection have a great soft and intimate feel to them. According to the designer, the colors are inspired by “crème brulee, nougat, lip gloss and lemon meringue” – and that can’t ever be a bad thing, now can it? ;-)

Soft tones and fabrics (lace, crepe-de-chine, pleated chiffons and obviously sweet silks), great attention to detail as we’ve come to expect from Janet Reger and a lovely romantic mood that just drips off the collection. Very convincing!

The designer says: “Soft chiffons cascade with contrast ruffles adding volume to the sweetest of lingerie we’ve ever made. Delicate gathers and minute attention to detail embrace this summer’s romantic mood. Airy transparency gives way to elegance and grace.”

The soft lace and ruffles ooze vintage romance; collections include camisoles, knickers, peignoir sets, and more. These are a much more glamorous option for a night at home than your worn-out pajamas! Claire Pettibone herself says of her designs,

“It has always been my desire to create exquisite feminine clothing using the finest fabrics and precious details; to combine a vintage feeling with modern style…I have a very romantic vision of how fashion can embrace our beauty and indulge our dreams. I invite you to share that dream”

Claire Pettibone has a very definitive style – every piece looks like it belongs in an elegant fairy tale! Here are some of my favorites, but there is so much more to see on the website or in your nearest boutique (there is a store locator on the site). Some of my most favorite pieces weren’t in any modeled pictures, so it’s definitely worth a visit to the site to find the one you like the best!

My Portuguese is quite weak, but here’s what I managed to translate from their original blog entry (if you know Portuguese better than I do — read the original! ;) ):

Vanilla lingerie launched it’s Autumn/Winter 2008 collection! With innovative new styles and fabrics with a very soft touch, the collection has something in store for everyone! The romantics are going to love the collection as you can see in the photos, but it will also appeal to those who like thing a little more modern. The collection is creative and romantic, without ever being anything but sensual.

I run ever-so-sexy.com and am definitely a lingerie fanatic spending most of my time thinking about lingerie or the associated issues of running an online lingerie boutique. When Bert at TLP asked me to be a regular contributor to TLP I was first of all very flattered and then having agreed – terrified! What, I wondered, would I find to write about twice a month that would be both “expert” and interesting. As I explained to Bert, I can be a bore on a national scale when it comes to talking about my business… but some of the issues of running a business, even in the lusciously lovely world of lingerie, can be very dull.

So, what should I choose for my first topic? Much head scratching and pencil chewing ensued while I searched for inspiration. You’ll be glad to learn that I dismissed important topics such as quarterly tax returns, import/export rules and search engine optimisation in favour of ROMANCE.

With Valentine’s Day only just around the corner the subject could not be more topical. Lingerie is almost unique among clothing in its strong association with romance, love and passion and is a top choice purchase among men looking for something special to give to their significant other. This is very relevant to ever-so-sexy because we specialise in the pretty and the sexy stuff – no woollen vests on our site!

Approximately 80% of our customers are men buying lingerie gifts for their partners and you can forget the stereotypical helpless male in the lingerie department of your local store because some of our gentlemen really know their lingerie! And for those that don’t there is the comfortable anonymity of the web coupled with the kind guidance of our customer care staff.

Ever So Sexy Romantic Lingerie

With romance as my subject I could recommend lots of lovely undies from the site, like the one pictured above, but instead of that I decided to access our sales stats to create a romance index – a list of where the most romantic men live…. Now that is a subject that should interest the single girls among the TLP readers on. Before the results I should apologise to the readers outside the UK as I have restricted the survey to the UK only. This is because we are based in the UK and the UK customer sample is larger for that reason. And the larger the sample the more valid the results – and here they are:

Results:
46.5% Southern
45% Northern
05% Scotland
2% Northern Ireland
3% Wales
3% South West

Interesting results! The first thought that occurs to me is that the Englishman is much underrated on the romance scale, and it really does not matter if he is a Yorkshire man of very little words or a smooth city trader from the South East, under the skin they are both love bunnies. Not so the Scots… very sad results from Scotland. In fact I will let you into a secret we have more women than men buying in Scotland which totally bucks the trend for our site.

Romance is very much on our minds at the moment at Ever-so-Sexy, not because we are in love (though some of us may be) its just because Valentines Day is just around the corner and all our thoughts are turned to what would be best to offer our customers… and I’ll continue on that theme with my next entry…

Australia has brought us many trends and now they are bringing Papinelle to the other side of the globe! Papinelle, currently retailing at Fred Segal and Anthropologie, is a line of versatile, feminine lounge and sleepwear. The signature look of Papinelle is one that intergrates comfort and style. I am a fan of the delicate, cotton and modal nighties and slips. Perfect for sleeping or lounging, these lightweight pieces, like the Fairy Blossom Nightie, are just the right amount sweet with simple ribbon and lace detailing. For more coverage, try the Tinkerbell Pants and Cami. They look comfy and cozy!

Papinelle Penny Dress FrockThe Papinelle brand is more than just loungewear, it’s life wear! The comfortable, stylish, and flirty theme is also evident in the extras such as slippers, soaps, and candles as well as their newly introduced frocks. Papinelle is available online with shipping throughout the world. Unless, of course, you happen to be in Sydney, where you can stop by and see the complete collection along with the store-only goodies.

We hope you stop by our forums and chat about your Papinelle purchases very soon!
