Yay! A Bra for Everyone!

It's so wonderful to receive a shipment of bras that work for virtually every customer; full-cup, small cup, someone who wants a pretty bra, someone who wants an everyday bra, and someone who wants an affordable bra! What could possibly cover all of these bases? The Timpa Duet collection. Timpa is a Dutch lingerie label that is responsible for creating the Duet group, which features pieces made from a mesh-patterned lace with scalloped lace trim.
We just brought in the Full Cup Bra, Padded Demi, and Lace Underwire Bra, which cover bra cups A to E! Also, what we just love about these bras is that they lie smooth and flat against the body like a t-shirt bra, but are actually attractive to look at. Imagine that, a pretty functional t-shirt bra.
The price range for the Timpa Duet bras ranges from $34 to $47...we love it! Also, we brought in a matching low-rise thong for those of you who wish to put together a set.
We have seen our customers wearing their beige Timpa bras under their white t-shirts and think it's just lovely looking. We can't wait to wear ours!

Cadolle - Bustiers & Corsets

Numero Magazine. model: Hilary Rhoda by David Vasiljevic

Wearing a corset is perhaps the easiest way to add va-va-voom to a lingerie ensemble. It's also the easiest way to hide a less-than-perfect figure! For those of you who want the creme de la creme of the corset world, you go to Cadolle. Cadolle is a world-famous corset maker based in Paris. This family-owned company has been creating corsets/bustiers/lingerie in their workshops since 1889!
Basically Cadolle is to corsets what Louis Vuitton is to luggage. That is why we are so excited to represent the brand at our boutique! We just received our favorite shapes; the Under-Bust Corset and the Waist-Cincher. Personally, the Under-Bust corset is just the sexiest piece we've seen (it's pictured below with a Simone Perele 'Avant Premiere' bra and boyshort)!

Pretty Bustier

model Freja Beha (photo credit unknown...please let us know who shot this!)

We found this image online, and it is one of those corset/bustier looks that we would wear/recommend as outerwear. We hate to say it, but we are not fans of the 'wearing a bustier with jeans' look...it's a bit dated. Nonetheless, we do like when an amazing bustier is styled with some chic accessories to make a killer outfit. In fact, one of our next posts will feature a few pieces from the queen of corsetry, Cadolle. We just received a few pieces from Cadolle and can't wait to share them with you! A bustier or corset might not always work as outerwear, but it always works in the bedroom!
