Summer Sensations at Journelle

June 12, 2008 by Krista

I recently stopped into Journelle, my favorite boutique in NYC, to see the summer selections. I noticed a trend of light, airy pieces perfect for the 90+ degree weather we are experiencing here!My favorite pieces were from Araks, a brand we haven’t mentioned much here on TLP, but clearly should more often! Sweet and simple, yet very sexy, the collection is made up of sheer bralettes, panties, camis, chemises, and an absolutely adorable teddy. Details like ruching, silk and lace trims, and contrasting colors give the collection a unique flair. Choose from basic colors like Black and Cream or more summery colors like Sun, Lapis, and Marine.

Bodas was a new brand to me. With bras, knickers, camis, and more in cotton, mesh, and tactel, the collection is ideal for keeping you cool and comfortable as well as chic. In a variety of colors and styles, Bodas is perfect under clingy summer dresses and sexy summer short shorts!

With wedding season in full swing, I’m sure many of you are purchasing gifts for friends or perhaps for yourself. If you are looking for something a little different, I suggest Letters of Marque. This line proves that the sweet, vintage Victorian look can be sexy too. Soft and sheer with Leavers lace embellishments, it will be hard to choose between the bralette and cami and the bloomers and g-string. The collection also includes a babydoll and bed jacket.

Pretty, pretty! If you are in New York City, visit Journelle for a sampling of each of these collections. If you are out of the New York City area, you will soon be able to shop Journelle online, but in the meantime, check out Araks and Bodas at Lille Boutique and Letters of Marque at Nancy Meyer and Dollhouse Bettie. Enjoy!

Love Jones Lingerie – Las Vegas

March 1, 2008 by Krista

It’s been about a month since I traveled to Las Vegas for a fun-filled Bachelorette Party with a fantastic group of ladies! In honor of the bride-to-be (now the new Mrs. Jones), we just had to make a special trip to the Hard Rock Hotel to see the Love Jones lingerie store.

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!

Honeydew Mesh Boy Shorts at Love JonesHoney 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.Leg Avenue Sequin Bloomers and Mary Green 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!

Award Winning Carol Malony

February 21, 2008 by Krista

While at the Curve NY show, I was able to see the always sassy and stylish Carol Malony collections – Carol Malony Signature

Champagne Taste BraChampagne Taste Panty
Champagne Taste Set Champagne Taste Long Slip

There are a number of other collections in this group I am eager to see in stores this Fall! “Enchanted” follows a unique, Carol Malony trend of matching muted colors with a pop of neon. Made of French stretch lace and silk chiffon in muted lavender, this seemingly sweet set shows its sassiness with a neon green edge to the Bloomer Panty as well as the same pop of color to the bra. This one-of-a-kind, Carol Malony “WOW” factor is also seen in the racy, leopard mesh, “Here Kitty Kitty” and the bright and colorful lace and silk satin, “Tropical Punch.”

In the Fall 2008 Carol Malony Signature collection, the glitz and glamour of the cabaret is evoked in each piece, while still retaining the Carol Malony flair. With bows, sequins, feathers, and fringe, you’ll have fun channeling your inner vixen in pieces like “Tiny Dancer,” “Heart Throb,” and “Well Red.”

Patrick and Skinner’s Mint–Choc-Chip

December 20, 2007 by Mandolina

Patrick and Skinner raspberry luxury lingerieDesigned by Patrick & Skinner, this yummy collection is but only an introduction to their lingerious wonderland. Using the launch theme of ‘Chocolate’, Mint-Choc-Chip & Raspberry Chocolate-Ripple was designed with all the naughty and nice of chocolate in mind.

Inspiration for the collection was drawn from the Victorian and Edwardian periods of British elegance, luxury fabric’s and lady like patterns. Made with luscious silk, lace, ribbon and diamante, the concept is sinfully portrayed through colour- deep chocolate silk with delicate mint or Raspberry trimmings presented to perfection.

The pretty (and sultry) collection includes a Bikini Bra, French Knickers, a Thong, a Camisole, a Nightdress and Bloomers. When adorned in Mint-Choc-Chip you will truly feel good enough to eat!
