Cosabella’s Fall Sex and the City Collection

September 12, 2008 by Krista

The hype surrounding Sex and the City: The Movie has long faded and many of us are already anticipating the rumored sequel. However, Cosabella is keeping the energy of the four ladies going by reintroducing the Sex and the City collection for fall. While the collection may include different styles, colors, and textures from the original collection released back in May, it continues to keep the sexy and sassy essence of the show and the characters. Available in stores now, just weeks before the September 23rd DVD release, the second Sex and the City collection is guaranteed to be a blockbuster.

Carrie is bold. For fall, the Carrie collection, including a camisole, brief, and g-string, is bold as well. In a vibrant pink called Lipstick, each piece is created from a new, scallop edged lace.

The classy Charlotte collection again uses the eco-friendly bamboo, but adds a 3/4 sleeve top perfect for the crisp autumn nights. The collection, including the long pants and low-rider thong, are available in an earthy Sage.

The sassy Samantha collection doesn’t disappoint! Complete with a bustier, low-rider hotpants, and a low-rider thong, the Samantha collection features a spotted black and tan feline print in tulle with black lace trim.

Miranda is polished, but playful. For fall, the Miranda collection again uses the contrasting tulle and lace combination, but in Cocoa and Pink. The collection includes a soft bra, low-rider hotpants, and a low-rider thong.

Cosabella is sold at retailers worldwide including Bloomingdales, Nordstrom, and online at Chic Mystique, Bare Necessities, Asos, and more!

Cosabella Sex and the City Collection: Launch Party Highlights & Fall 2008

May 27, 2008 by Krista

We are under a week until the movie of the year hits screens! Shown below are some photos from the Cosabella Sex and the City Collection Launch Party at Bloomingdales. The event was a lot of fun for all those attended. The first 100 attendees even received tickets for the NYC premiere of the movie on May 27th!

And if this hasn’t made your day, well, how about this? This fall, Cosabella will extend the Sex and the City collection to include new colorways and silhouettes!

The Fall Carrie collection will still retain a fun and fashionable essence, but will replace floral print tulle with scalloped edged lace. The cami, brief, and g-string all come in a gorgeous, vibrant pink called Lipstick. The Charlotte collection continues to use the amazingly soft and eco-friendly bamboo fiber. However, for Fall 2008, it is featured in Sage and incorporates a 3/4 sleeve top. Samantha takes sexy in a new direction with an animal print called Ocelot. The spotted print tulle is available in a bustier, low rise hotpant, and low rise thong. The hotpant and thong of the Miranda collection will remain, but a soft bra is introduced. All pieces will be featured in Cocoa with a Pink trim.

And that’s not all for the fall collection. Look for more details about the rest of the fantabulous fall collection in an upcoming post. In the meantime, channel your inner Carrie, Charlotte, Samantha, or Miranda and start shopping! In addition to Bloomingdales and Bare Necessities, the collection can be purchased at Chic Mystique or the HBO Shop (which also has a number of other SATC goodies, including a very cute eco-friendly dry cleaning bag!).

Yummie Tummie Tanks – Oprah’s Top Pick!

May 20, 2008 by Krista

Back in March, guest blogger, Heather, of Bare Necessities, first introduced us to the brand Yummie Tummie in her very informative post about shapewear. Since then, Yummie Tummie has made quite an impression on the intimate apparel market as well as on media maven, Oprah! Recently featured on Oprah’s Top Picks for Summer (with special guest Heidi Klum), Yummie Tummie shaping tanks are unique in that they are designed to be seen! Look sleek, slender, and sexy in your choice of 10 colors including black, white, chocolate, red, navy, and nude!

Why else should you own a Yummie Tummie tank? Well, the tank is made of a slick, soft cotton, so is naturally comfortable and won’t cling to your clothes. The fabric also features moisture-wicking so you will stay cool and dry. The longer silhouette means you won’t have to deal with that annoying roll up that often plagues us all when wearing tanks.

The Yummie Tummie Tank featured on Oprah is available in both a hip length and a long length style. Other styles include a Basic T, Strappy T, and Basic V (with a Nursing T on the way – preorder at Bare Necessities!). Sizes range from XS – XL. Yummie Tummie tanks and tees retail from $62 – $82 and are available at over 600 retailers in the U.S. including Bloomingdales and Neiman Marcus. Select international locations also carry Yummie Tummie. For online ordering, Bare Necessities has you covered.

Already purchased Yummie Tummie? Let us know all about it in our forums. Haven’t purchased yet? What are you waiting for?!

Either way, enjoy this clip of Yummie Tummie from the Today show :

Cosabella Celebrates 25 Years!

May 17, 2008 by Krista

So, most of my recent Cosabella coverage has been about the coveted Sex and the City collection. However, perhaps even more notable, is that Cosabella is celebrating 25 years in the industry! Now that’s a reason to celebrate! In the past 25 years, the brand has evolved from providing bodysuits and its signature Soire thong to offering an extensive intimate apparel and swimwear brand. In honor of this remarkable occasion, the brand is launching the Valeria collection (in homage to president and founder, Valeria Campello designed by husband, Ugo Campello).

The Valeria collection is made of a delicate, black mesh with intricate, metallic silver embroidery. Fitting of a silver anniversary! Swarovski crystals adorn the fabric for a rich, opulent look. The balconette bra is quite a stunner! Pair with a g-string or bikini. Complete the look with the elegant and amazingly chic chiffon robe. And because this is such a monumental milestone, pieces from the collection will be embellished with a special hangtag signifying the anniversary.

Arriving in August, Valeria will be sold at Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Bloomingdales, Bergdorf Goodman, and Henri Bendel among other department stores and boutiques nationwide.
