Pampered Passions

Pampered Passions’ Alicia Vargo wins first Leading Lady Award

December 8, 2009 by Press Release

Pampered PassionsIn a luncheon to honor Colorado’s female entrepreneurs, Alicia Vargo, the CEO and founder of Pampered Passions Fine Lingerie, was named Colorado’s First Leading Lady. The award was presented by the Colorado chapter of Ladies Who Launch, an organization that helps and inspires women to find success in launching and managing their entrepreneurial endeavors.

Vargo won the award because of her commitment to helping women, particularly breast cancer survivors, feel good about themselves, inside and out. Pampered Passions Fine Lingerie has 5 Post Mastectomy Specialists on staff to ensure every woman successfully finds a proper fitting bra and fine lingerie that makes her feel good about herself. Pampered Passions Fine Lingerie is well known for sewing pockets into almost anything in the store, “This way, breast cancer survivors can wear virtually anything in the store,” says Vargo. Having an In-House Tailor who understands both Breast Cancer Survivors and Bridal needs makes it easy to custom fit anyone.

“It’s going to take some time getting used to being called Colorado’s Leading Lady, an honor that I am very much honored and humbled by,” says Vargo. “I plan to continue to help women find bras and lingerie that fit their styles and their bodies without judgment, just as Ladies Who Launch helps women find success in business no matter what.”

Ricki Booker, the Colorado leader for Ladies Who Launch and mastermind behind the Colorado Leading Ladies Awards, says, “Alicia’s dedication to helping women, particularly women in her community, is what drew the judges to choose her as Colorado’s first Leading Lady. There were more than 150 women who applied for this honor – making Vargo’s win even more impressive.”

Vargo was honored at a luncheon on November 5, 2009 at The Curtis Hotel in Denver. The ceremony was MC’d by 9News reporter, TaRhonda Thomas. More info on the place charity takes in Pampered Passion’s business, check out their corporate care page; it’s well worth a visit!

Axami: Polish Lingerie

June 18, 2008 by Rene

In this series, TLP will narrow our coverage of lingerie around the globe and focus on the country of Poland. Poland has a long history of textile manufacturing and since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Poland has been embracing market economies. Freed from quotas and mandated manufacturing, many Polish textile companies are stepping on to the world stage.

The next stop is Axami. TLP introduced you to Axami in March of this year. The company produces a large number of collections and lines. You can sample some of the breadth in the thumbnails below. The company produces their website in Polish, French, German, and English. There is no company store, unless you live in Poland. Outside of Poland, Axami has established a healthy distribution network. If you are in the US, you can contact Grabit if you are interested in picking up the line for wholesale distribution. If you simply want to pick up these designs as a retail customer, try

  • Pampered Passions
  • Azzuma
  • Ever So Sexy

As Mandolina pointed out in March, there’s not a signature in the Axami collection. The range includes heavy spandex basques looking like Luxxa designs, Bridal basics, and ornate brocade pieces that look similar to Aubade.

Polish Lingerie: Sawren

May 16, 2008 by Rene

In this series, TLP will narrow our coverage of lingerie around the globe and focus on the country of Poland. Poland has a long history of textile manufacturing and since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Poland has been embracing market economies. Freed from quotas and mandated manufacturing, many Polish textile companies are stepping on to the world stage.

Sawren is the next stop on our tour of Polish lingerie. Sawren is typical of many of the lingerie shops profiled in this series. The offering is fairly broad and although the pieces are very lovely, it is hard to find a signature piece. Sawren does seem to have a signature colour or series of colours. Their line is speckled with very deep, dark colours like eggplant, ruby, darker lavendar, and silvers. Check out the thumbs at the end of the articles.

The site is available in English, Russian, and Polish. You can find the pieces online at various retailers including:

  • Chauve Vegas (Retail – US)
  • Chique Lingerie (Retail – Netherlands)
  • Thongs and More (Retail US)
  • Pampered Passions (Retail US)

The company also has distribution through at least these companies:

  • AC Lingerie (wholesale)
  • Mia Strabella (wholesale – US)

Something Sassy, Something Sweet…Part II

June 24, 2007 by Krista

Spoylt Passion BraOur next bride-to-be is the sultry, sassy, Soon-to-be Mrs. She loves the traditional, but with a spicy spin. Her wardrobe is filled with intriguing little numbers guaranteed to keep the sparks flying long after the honeymoon. Gigi’s Closet is a great source for everyday basics as well as a fun and lively pieces (and they have great customer service!). One of my favorites is this red-hot set by Spoylt! Some lucky gentleman’s heart will be racing for sure! Appropriately called “Passion,” vixens of all ages will be stunning in this red demi cup bra and matching thong complete with just enough ruffle to ruffle his feathers. At just over $200, this set is a little pricey, but hey, she’s worth it!

Out of your price range? Try the Eberjey Annalise chemise. Currently on sale at Figleaves for $55, light, mint and pink semisheer chemise will focus on all of her best assets. He will be left mesmerized as this piece hugs every curve. I love the simplicity of the cut with the ruffled bottom adding that something special.

Undrest Sophia Cami and Bikini Set I absolutely adore this cami and bikini set by Undrest! Made of the finest supima cotton this strapless cami (complete with ruffles and a satin ribbon detail) is constructed with a built in shelf bra for support. This set is available in mint with creme trim, crème with mint trim, and peach with mocha trim – flattering for a variety of skin tones. Casual, but sexy, the bride to be will be sure to grab her man’s attention in the thoughtfully designed Brazilian panty. Find this (and a fabulous treat for yourself) at Faire Frou Frou.

Keep things spicy with this set by Carol Malony available at Graffiti Pink. Made of soft, sensual eyelash lace this peek-a-boo bra and skirted thong makes a bold statement with the hot pink silk-satin trim. This set shows some skin, but leaves just enough to the imagination!

Jezebel Ruffle Galore Bustier

Being sassy is all about edge as seen in the Jezebel “Ruffles Galore” Bustier. The boning gives shape, structure, and support while the ruffles and bows give it pizzazz! Any bride to be can feel confident in this. Think runway show in the bedroom…Don’t forget the matching thong or boyshort. You can find this little number in precious pink, racy “Vampire” red, or bold “Icelandic” blue at Pampered Passions Fine Lingerie or Bare Necessities.

Not quite right? The series continues with more ideas suitable for your Bare it All Bachelorette!
