Sexy Lingerie Experts Suggest Fab Holiday Finds

December 19, 2009 by Bruna

Still wondering what gifts to buy this holiday season? Frederick’s of Hollywood has the answer! Four of the company’s lingerie experts have launched a “goddess-worthy” gift guide outlining some fabulous finds, and they’re all under $40!

According to a Frederick’s designer, zebra prints are all the rage this holiday season. “A zebra print plush robe embellished with Bombshell Pink trim is the perfect idea for a girl who loves color and pattern,” she said. Check out the $39 robe below!

The second price-friendly option is Frederick’s Satin 3-piece PJ set. “The tap pant, part of the three-piece set, is a good way to update the look and makes it sexier. For a sexy, bold statement I think ‘Frederick’s Red’ is a great color choice,” said Frederick’s associate buyer. The Frederick’s Red style is actually on sale for $20, down from $39!

According to Frederick’s senior buyer, lingerie lovers love matching sets—and she’s right! “Matching sets create a full, sexy look from head to toe,” she said. “My favorite is the retro inspired Pin-Up Chic set. Pops of Bombshell Pink, a nice alternative to red, make it sassy, sexy and wearable beyond the holiday season.”

The fourth expert, Frederick’s creative director, says sexy stocking stuffers are an absolute must for the holidays. “Boy shorts are fun and flirty, plus they make great stocking stuffers,” she said. She suggests the Ellie (4 for $25) as an ideal style choice for an array of body types.

Looks For Less: Frederick’s of Hollywood Chameleon Bra

July 28, 2009 by Kelly

The Frederick’s of Hollywood Chameleon bra is 3 styles in 1. The cups incorporate pads which can be worn black side out, colored side out, or which can be removed for a sheer cup look. While this bra isn’t a dead ringer for any more expensive styles I found, it does look inspired by several in its various states which makes this a great look for less. The bra is available in white, red, teal, blueberry, or purple garnet and all have black lace accents. Each normally retails for $30, or $24.50 when you buy 2 or more. Teal, blueberry, and purple garnet are on currently sale for $19.99 each.

Here is the Frederick’s of Hollywood bra:

With the pads color side out, it reminds me of the Mimi Holliday Belle Amour bra. It retails for $60 and will be available at the beginning of August (pre-order now at Mio Destino):

With the pads removed or black side out, it reminds me of the Aubade Mathilde bra with the black cups and colored band. It retails for $115:

Dress My Nest Around My Rhinestone Garter Belt

July 22, 2009 by Rene

The Style Network runs a show called Dress My Nest in the US. A designer, Thom (from Queer Eye for the Straight Guy), helps people fix up their homes. To get a sense of their style, Thom asks for “3 and 3” – three things you love and three things that reflect your style. He uses these props as inspiration. Rarely do the props become actual centerpieces of the room. On a recent episode (iTunes US), Thom is helping Tabitha. Tabitha is a single gal that is settling down after taking a turn globe trotting the world as a magician’s assistant.

One of Tabitha’s items is a rhinestone garter belt. (Click here to watch a small clip from the show and to see Tabitha unveil her three choices). I’m pretty sure I remember that piece from three years ago when Victoria’s Secret was producing a fall line and adding their own sense of glamour. I haven’t tracked any of the originals, even on the vast eBay. Frederick’s of Hollywood is offering a kit of bra and string for $39.00 US a piece.

I was also able to track down an actual garter belt from Body Lingerie for $39.75 US.

If you have no idea what to do with a garter belt (and I’m not sure why you would be reading TLP), then you can take some lessons from this instructional video.

Reversible Bras, now from Frederick’s of Hollywood

April 14, 2009 by Kelly

Remember back in 2007 when Victoria’s Secret had some reversible bras? There weren’t very many styles and they didn’t stick around very long, but they were a novelty while they lasted. Now, a year and a half later, Frederick’s Hollywood is trying their hand at this sort of product with the Hollywood Reversible Plunge Bra. These bras are available in nine different combinations; some have two solid colors, and some have a solid color on one side and a print on one side. The website says,

“One bra. Two sexy two looks! This deep plunge bra may feel barely-there because of its luxuriously supple microfiber fabric, but it offers maximum support and versatility with two sides to choose. Innovative soft wire shaping provides beautiful cleavage without padding. Deep plunge front for a sexy silhouette. Hidden elastic wings for smooth, flat fit. Swan hook adjustable closure. Colors that reverse to solids (Amethyst/Mink, White/Frederick’s Pink and Jade/Frederick’s Red) have two sets of straps to match both sides of the bra.”

The Hollywood Reversible Plunge bra is availble in sizes 32A-42F, although DD-F cup sizes are a fuller cup style and have fewer pattern/color choices. The bras are $30-$32 each, but are reduced to $24.50 when you buy two or more. And for a limited time (until 5/31), you can recieve a coupon for $20 off your next order when you purchase a reversible bra. There are matching thongs available for $8 (or 4 for $25). While the thongs themselves are not reversible, they are available in every combination you need to match whichever side you’re wearing your bra on – so you may want to buy both matching thongs to go with your reversible bra for the illusion of having two seperate sets.
