Coy and Sexy; Calla

images via here

These images are from the Spring/Summer 2010 Calla collection; a French label designed by Calla Haynes. The brand is primarily known for its prints/patterns, but what caught our eye is the interpretation of the bustier in these ready-to-wear looks. The lingerie-inspired look of these pieces is subtle and meanwhile creates a classic look. Perhaps even more eye-catching is the beautiful way in which these pieces were photographed. That top image is just gorgeous, don't you agree?

Our New Favorite Outfit

GQ Italy, January Jones

This is such a simple lingerie ensemble, but it works wonders in this shoot! We think it must be the sequin panties! In any event, we think that January Jones is rockin' the lingerie look in this shoot. A sexy black bustier like that should be in every woman's lingerie wardrobe...we need to get ours!

A Bit of Eye Candy

We discovered this image over on Captivate Me, and just had to share. A beautiful portrait by Kate Orne, and an equally beautiful bustier!

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)!
