La Fee Verte Spring/Summer 2010

October 17, 2009 by Krista

I first told you about La Fee Verte back in the spring after seeing the delightful collection at Curvexpo.  During a time when the intimates industry was feeling the effects of the recession, and the general mood of the show was reserved, I was intrigued by a brand that would dare to go bold!  The Fall 2009 collection, now available at retailers, including Journelle (where I saw it last week!), is daring, colorful, and whimsical.  In contrast, the Spring/Summer 2010 collection takes a more mature, more vintage, more Parisian direction while still retaining an emphasis on quality and luxury.

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.

See above for a sampling of photos of the collection.  Many more are on the website.  I promise, you will be hooked!

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!

New Styles from What Katie Did

May 4, 2008 by Kelly

What Katie Did has been focused on building a range of good basics in recent years, but this Summer they decided to have a bit more fun with some new limited edition lines. The Hello Sailor range is very limited – only 18 sailor suits are available! The sailor suit comes with navy blue satin knickers, a bralette (made to fit B-D cups), neck scarf, and white sailor hat. The Tallulah corset is an overbust design made of handwoven dusty pink fabric with a purple and gold pattern. Only 30 Tallulah corsets are available (5 in each size)! Some sizes of each design are already sold out, so you’d better get yours while you still can!

Remember, if you’re ever looking for hard-to-find What Katie Did styles, or are just bargain hunting, keep What Katie Did’s ebay shop bookmarked! End-of-the-line and other merchandise can be found in the ebay shop, often at discounted prices.

Riviera Runway Boutique – A New Discovery

April 17, 2008 by Krista

Honeydew Lazy Daisy BraletHoneydew Lazy Daisy BoyshortI recently had the challenge of trying to find the Honeydew Lazy Daisy Bralet and Boyshort online. A friend of mine, who is getting married next month, fell in love with this set, but unfortunately, they did not have her size in the color she wanted (white for her wedding!). So, I have spent the past two weeks tracking down this apparently popular set. After trying a number of my favorite sites with no luck (wrong sizes, wrong colors), I stumbled upon Riviera Runway Fashion Online Boutique. And lucky for me, they had exactly what I wanted!

While I was a little apprehensive about trying a new site, the clock is ticking, so I had to jump on it. Navigating the site was easy and the check out process was a breeze. I appreciated the follow up email detailing my purchase. The set was shipped the following day and arrived neatly packaged a few days later.

The site features swimwear brands like L*Space and Luli Fama and lingerie brands including Undrest and Dessous. While the number of brands featured is small, the selection is decent and the purchasing process is easy. I would definitely use this site again.
