Shining In The Night: Lingerie To Dazzle

March 21, 2007 by Charly

Imagine this summer: a romantic dinner on the seaside, candles on the table, full moon sparkling over the calm sea and stars shining up in the sky and down in your bra. Don’t dream anymore because you can have it right now (at least the bra), because this summer many brands have released crystal embroidered underwear. These garments are obviously not for everyday-wear but for those special times, those weekend breaks or romantic dinners you can add the elegance of the crystal to your ‘wear to impress lingerie wardrobe’.Crystal Chemise Swarovski lingerie

You have a wide range to choose: bras, briefs, basques,… and many prices: from most affordable to the top luxury with champagne bottle included. But lets see what we can pick: webshop Figleaves UK and Figleaves US offer us different models from different brands. The Spanish Andres Sarda, has a selection of underwired bras on which the central gore features a bow with a swarovski crystal charm. Aubade follows the same principle with the Villa Caraibes half cup braicon in which the central gore is adorned with a shiny swarovski crystal. For a more lit-up look we have the Christies Platinum collection, currently on sale too!. The bra and bustier in this line have padded cups embroidered with crystals and one in the central gore to finish the look.

We can also find glimmering underwear on other websites like Silkstorm. Though there aren’t many sets the look and quality of the one they have stand by its own. Valery Swimwear halter crystal set swarovskiWe can pick a lovely pink satin bra and brief set or a luxurious black tulle camisole with hand sewn jewels from Cotton Club, an Argentovivo Limited Edition Bra that includes an Moet & Chandon bottle or, if you want to add a little bit of spice to your nights, a black satin cuffs adorned with swarovski crystals.

At silkstorm, they even have crystal-embroidered swimwear. Take a look at this beautiful Valery Metallic halterneck, finished off with Swarovski crystal on the cups.

Ultimo Lingerie: I like!

March 19, 2007 by Mandolina

I can hardly believe we haven’t talked about Ultimo yet on The Lingerie Post. I honestly can’t see why, as it’s one of the UK’s most successful lingerie brands, both in Great Britain and in the rest of the world.Ultimo frontless body modelled by Sarah Harding Having had big names such as Rachel Hunter and Helena Christensen as their brand face (and body), they are aiming for a very high profile. Today, Girls Aloud’s Sarah Harding has the honor of modelling the Ultimo lingerie…

What makes Ultimo so successful apart from their great marketing decisions? Their lingerie! The Ultimo pieces I have share a few common traits: cleavage enhancing, daring designs and very affordable.Ultimo frontless body Swarovski Crystal detail Only positives? Kind of… An Ultimo bra (or body) takes some getting used to, and that tends to put some girls off.

My favorite? The Ultimo frontless body. Yes, that’s frontless. Its aggressive cuts and beautiful Swarovski details give this already unusual design a very unique look. It’s very useful for low-cut cleavage dresses and accentuates your décolleté like all Ultimo pieces. I’m sure the photo’s (featuring the beautiful Sarah Harding) say more than my description ;-). Looking to buy Ultimo lingerie? Our in-house favorite Figleaves.com has Ultimo on their UK website. US readers are less lucky, but can order straight from the Ultimo website!

3 Budget Lingerie picks!

March 16, 2007 by Mandolina

We are working hard on bringing you a whole new section on the website in the next few weeks, and in the mean time, I’ll be able to bring you a little sneak preview every once in a while… Today, I’ll be showing 3 of my current favorites when it comes to budget bras… Budget means more than value for money, it also means anything sub £20/$40 in my opinion… Here are my picks:B-Ware by Ballet Betsy Underwire bra

1. B’Ware by Ballet Betsy Underwire bra
What makes this underwire bra so special? The cup detail! The pink frilly ribbon looks so girly, and the net fabric of these cups give the bra a sexy touch. Sexy and girly, good quality, and only $18 down from $36 on the US website, £20 (that’s over double the price :() on the UK site.Beneath Embellished padded bra

2. Beneath Embellished padded bra
This bra looks so much like an $85 beau bra one I have! Beautiful sheer mesh on the plunged cups, girly ribbon details on the thin straps and on sale as well! Down to $19.60 from $28 on the US website, £16 on the UK site!

3. O Lingerie Flirt bandeau bra
O Lingerie Flirt bandeau bra We’ve never mentioned O Lingerie on the website before, but this one deserved its spot! The $25 in the US and the £9.8 (down from £14) in the UK are rock bottom. The bra itself doesn’t look cheap at all though, especially thanks the beautiful floral lace trim on the cups. I’m buying this one straight away! 😉

Got bargain tips yourself? Let us know on the forums! We’re always looking for fellow lingerie lovers to join our community!

Jezebel Ruffles Galore unlined bra

January 31, 2007 by Mandolina

Browsing the Figleaves Valentines selection tonight, looking for a birthday gift for one of my best friends (her birthday is on February 15th, I mean, that means the boyfriend thinks he can get away with only one present). Stumbled upon this sexy Jezebel unlined bra, actually featured by Figleaves as one of their favorites, good stuff! First off: some photo’s:


This Jezebel bra features unlined cups that provides half cup coverage and uplift. Tiny bow details appear at the front of the adjustable straps and it has a two column, three row back closure.

Combined with the low-rise shorty (it features four rows of flirty back ruffles. The front is adorned with a satin centre ribbon. It has a high cut leg and Brazilian cut back) you’ll look STEAMING hot for any Valentine date.
