Making It Work: Lingerie As Outerwear - Gold Hawk Edition





Gold Hawk models showing us the sexier option of How to Wear...

We are pleased to present you with our next installment of Making It Work: Wearing Lingerie as Outerwear.  This week we feature yet another favorite designer, Gold Hawk, which allows for yet another super simple look to transition from lingerie to daywear.  For this post, we included a few gorgeous images of the models wearing Gold Hawk.  When something is presented in such a sexy, bedroom fashion, sometimes it's hard to look beyond how it's marketed to see another use for it.  Perhaps the number one reason we love wearing our Gold Hawk chemises & slips as tops is because it's such a perfect length!  It's super cute & short for the bedroom, but just long enough to cover the hips/rear when you're out & about...a winning combination for us!
The item featured on Faire Frou Frou's Alison is the Sheer Edge Slip in Black.  We brought this item to Faire Frou Frou for Fall 2012 in a few colors, and even brought in a few styles with lace trim.  This could easily be the first of many Gold Hawk posts!  As it is, yesterday on Instagram we made a little demonstration with this satin Gold Hawk chemise (on the hanger and on Alison):

Making It Work: Lingerie as Outerwear - Kriss Soonik Edition





images via Faire Frou Frou's Instagram!

Far too often customers see something they love in our boutique and ask us if the item is lingerie or outerwear, and often times our response is BOTH! 
Our first item for our new series of Making It Work: Wearing Lingerie as Outerwear, is the Kristel Suspender Top by Kriss Soonik.  We demonstrate the lingerie use for this darling top as the first image above, and show how quite simply it can be layered with a jacket and pants to create outfit you can spend the entire day in.  Another great idea is to pair it with a pencil skirt, and that way you put those cute garter straps to good use.  Now this may seem like an extremely easy no-brainer, but we wanted to start our series off with the simplest idea.  As it is, someone may see something just like this being sold at Faire Frou Frou and ask if they can wear it outside the house!  Just because something is sold in a lingerie setting, doesn't mean you can't get the double benefit of using the item both inside and outside the bedroom.
As for the Kristel Suspender Top, it is THE original garter strap top made from viscose jersey that is treated with an anti-pilling treatment (talk about attention to detail!).  It has a dramatic cut-out at the back that is accented with a sweet satin bow.  Now if you're really good, you will wear this top with the matching panties underneath, and that way have an instant day-to-night look!
