La Magia newcomers for Valentine’s Day!

January 31, 2008 by Mandolina

We haven’t had enough La Magia news on TLP in the last few weeks — and I’m pretty sure some of you have missed them! Still, now that they’ve added a little extra to their website in the form of a “NEW ITEMS” page — we have a perfect excuse of giving them another plug on the front page!

Right now — the new items page is filled with Valentine’s Day newcomers. New pieces from The Mistress Collection (this Silk Kimono is breathtaking!), Ayten Gasson, Playful Promises, Peachie Keen and others…

Happy shopping!

Dress to Undress

December 30, 2007 by Mandolina

Just about a month ago, deep in the heart of Soho, the decadence of Madame JoJo’s Nightclub welcomed excited guests to the glittering extravaganza and wonder that awaited them inside.

A sumptuous array of chocolates, Martin Miller’s Gin cocktails and Pussy Energy Drinks titillated the guests while beautiful burlesque, cabaret, and magic acts entertained us with a visual extravaganza of lavish, glittering costumes created by Playful Promises, Kiss Me Deadly and Fairy Gothmother. Laura London, the beautiful and youngest ever member of the magic circle amazed us with her cheeky tricks, while the stunning Japanese dancer, Maki teased with her mischievous feather performances.

Then came the main extravaganza; the eagerly anticipated performances and unique showcase of three exceptionally luscious and luxurious brands.

The charismatic Chrys Columbine amazed the audience with her exquisite baby-doll burlesque show wearing a stunning Fairy Gothmother creation.

The amazingly talented Morgana, Kiss Me Deadly’s beautiful model, seduced her audience with her incredibly visual murder mystery inspired strip tease.

The sexy, sultry Esme Bianco got the audience all hot under the collar with her cheeky and sophisticated show. The mood was sultry for her suited and booted “gentleman” character before transforming into a glamorous corseted vixen all while showing off her singing talents and the flirtatious frivolity of Playful Promises pieces.

Playful Promises Alice’s Party @ LM

August 16, 2007 by Mandolina

First: if you’re not a long-time reader of TLP, make sure to check out this post about Playful Promise s, and this one about their upcoming SS08 collection. I adore all of these, but obvioulsy we were a bit early with our coverage; the Doll Face pieces aren’t in the shops yet, and the Alice’s Party (winter collection) is only now available… Which is the whole point of this post: La Magia, who took a Playful Promises break some time ago, restocked PP, and now have a large stock of the Alice’s Party collection on their excellent website!

What’s so great about these pieces is the overall package. It’s one of my all time favorite collections, simply because of the stunning eye for detail, the excellent design — and the fact that those elements are combined with affordable price tags. That’s so awesome! This breathtaking Mademoiselle Bra, for example, is one of the most adorable little numbers I’ve seen in a long time. It’s available at La Magia for just Â£30. That’s $60 for a designer cheeky designer bra — beat that!

I know, I sound biased. I am biased. I love Playful Promises. You will too after checking the photos. Happy shopping! 😉
