Lingerie Gifts

Several occasions of the year readily come to mind when I think about receiving lingerie as a gift. Most obvious are Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, Christmas Day, birthdays and anniversaries. Of course, lingerie as a gift does not have to be something sexy or racy from our husbands, it can be fun and comforting from our children, thoughtful and practical from our girlfriends and more importantly, it can be a gift or reward to ourselves for a job well done.

For many people, even longtime husbands and close girlfriends, lingerie is a difficult purchase. Online boutiques are making it easier for women and their well wishers to purchase lingerie. Lingerie of the Month Clubs and specific gift-giving lingerie sites are perfect because the senders can choose the budget they wish to spend while at the same time send something that can be customized for their special receiver to enjoy.

PajamaGram.com is a great way for a family to send something nice to the woman they love. The pretty pajamas and nightgowns range in size from XS to 3X and are made in silk, satin, cotton or cashmere. Each gift is lovingly prepared with a choice of garment, keepsake packaging, scented sachet and personalized gift card. With over 100 styles, there is definitely a size, style and color for any age woman on this site.

Fill-R-Up.com is an innovative way to give gifts in different packaging. Their sweet lingerie bag comes in several colours with pretty pictures of camisoles and bikinis. It can be personalized with the woman’s name embroidered on the bag as well. Each bag comes wrapped in clear cellophane tied with a pretty ribbon and personalized gift tag. The bag itself would be a nice gift for any woman or the purchaser might go one step further and add a lovely piece of lingerie to the bag.

ChocolateFantasies.com keeps a steady stream of sexy panties and bras coming each month. Choose between 3, 6 or 12-month packages. Each gift is gift-wrapped and comes with gift card and another treat such as holiday themed chocolates or chocolate rose. Plus sizes are available.

GiftaMonth.co.uk offers two-piece lingerie sets each month of the year. The really nice thing about this particular Lingerie of the Month Club is some of the previous gifts have come with camisoles and bustiers not just bras and panties. They also send top name labels from around the world.

A New Lingerie Label Directory

While browsing Luxury Lingerie Shopping I noticed they had added a new link in their blogroll, so I checked it out… and I discovered a brand new directory site dedicated to lingerie labels!

I wish them the best of luck and if they need ANY assistance what so ever they can always give me a call! ;-)

Pajamas: The Forgotten Lingerie

When one mentions the word lingerie, our thoughts automatically veer toward sexy intimate apparel. Undergarments in lace and satin, fancy see-through dresses worn for that special loved one and sweet little garters and stockings are the images played in most minds. But what about pyjamas? Well, yes, loungewear and specifically pyjamas are participants in the realm of lingerie as well. And pyjamas are versatile. They can be lacy, frilly and a little girlish, sexy and provocative perfect for a lover and fun and whimsical for the relaxing stay at home type.Shirley Of Hollywood Pajamas

For ladies who prefer those creamy and sophisticated types of pyjamas, Shirley of Hollywood offers a key lime silk chiffon, long pant pyjama set. Add the matching thong and this set is fabulous poolside. Whether sleeping, lounging or basking in the sun, a gorgeous pair of chiffon pyjamas will set the mood.

Then, there are many women who live in the colder areas of the world and require nice, warm pyjamas for those nippy winter months. Big Feet PJs has the perfect solution to keep any woman toasty during the long night’s hibernation. These pyjamas are fashioned after baby sleepers. You know the ones with the little feet in them. And to add to that cute design, they have now incorporated the little drop door as well. The “big feets” are sold in cotton flannel, cashmere, micro-polar fleece and jersey knit. So whatever your needs, there is a material to suit.

Next, remember grandma’s flannels? Or what they called flannelet night gowns. These are now popular among women for both sleeping in cold weather and also wearing around the house. It is probably safe to say that many work-at-home moms don their fanciest flannel pyjamas and jump on the computer every morning starting their day at work. PJ Heaven has an incredible line of flannel pyjamas. Take your pick from stripes, florals, polka dots, hearts and solid colours.

Lastly, for the little girl in all women, the baby doll is the cutest little pyjama available. Most offline retailers and online lingerie stores offer one or more baby doll styles. Adorable, pink ruffled panties with a matching flounced cami or short dress-like top is the perfect summer time pyjama.

Whatever your mood, whatever your style, or whatever time of the year, pyjamas are sure to please.

Investing in Victoria’s Secret

Analysts are waffling with the recent announcements of Victoria’s Secret CEO Sharen Jester Turney that the company needs to revamp its image. In the wake of poor 2007 sales and the downturned US economy, analysts are recommending that the garment industry is not where investors should find themselves. The thought is that many people will be downsizing their wardrobes in order to make it through 2008 financial uncertainty.

Victoria's SecretAnd while apparel shopping may suffer low sales in a poor economy, other analysts are countering by saying lingerie is in a league of its own. Investing in companies such as Limited Brands is a smart idea. The rationale behind this notion is that when times are tough, women will dispense with designer clothes and expensive blouse or dress labels. But women still want to feel good about themselves and will continue to spend their money on quality bras and panties.

So apparel in general may suffer but lingerie, on the other hand, may sustain or do better. Added to this, the announcement that Victoria’s Secret may have come too far from its roots and needs to get back on track, may prove beneficial to the company in 2008. The company is scheduled to open thirty-one new stores and remodel another forty-five this spring.

If they can find ways to appeal to and regain their original customers. older women who moved away from the brand, then 2008 may be a successful year. The CEO has identified what she believes to be the problems and all indicators point to a major shakeup.

Investor or shopper, we will all need to watch the progress of Victoria’s Secret in 2008 to see what direction the company takes and what changes are looming. There may be some exciting moves on the horizon.

Eco-Conservation Hits Lingerie

Eco friendliness is taking huge leaps and jumps in modern society. Experts are touting “green weddings” using recycled and sustainable resources. Going one step further, they are recommending that hostesses who choose lingerie parties as a bridal shower theme suggest the guests purchase eco-friendly lingerie.

And you ask yourself, “what on earth is eco-friendly lingerie? Well in a sense it is lingerie made from the earth from natural materials that can be re-grown. Helping to protect the environment is not just about driving pollution free cars and recycling plastic bottles but, in a way, the move is taking us back to our roots and a simpler, healthier lifestyle coupled with cleaner living.

Examples of eco-friendly lingerie are t-shirts and pyjamas made out of cotton, soy based chemises, organic silk satin camisoles, hemp panties and colorful nighties using non-toxic dyes. Examples of online lingerie companies or designer collections who now sell “green lingerie” are Enamore Ltd, Belabumbum Lingerie & Maternity, Stella McCartney’s Lingerie Collection, Lotus Organics, Rawganique and Figleaves

And one of the funniest items that I saw while browsing solutions to our planet’s longevity problem was the bra that doubles as a shopping bag. Although this product was launched in Japan over a year ago, I wonder how popular or non-existent it really is. I am pro-planet but I cannot imagine using my expensive bra to carry my groceries even in the name of conservation!

Glamourize Your Lingerie

With Valentine’s Day fast approaching, I thought it might be fun to find ways to dress-up your lingerie and put you both in the mood.

High Heels – High heels make any woman look terrific. Whether she is petite or plus size, short or tall, the skinnier the heel, the longer and sleeker the legs appear so high heeled shoes are extremely sensual. Take the shoes off and your outfit is plain and drab. Add the shoes and wow, you look hot! So, pull on that animal print chemise, your sweet little thong and your favourite heels. Even if you aren’t waiting for someone special, feel sexy prancing around the house in your heels and best lingerie.

Nipple Covers –
Peek-a-boo bras or open cup bras have become hugely popular. Dressing up the open cup can be a lot of fun. There are so many styles of nipple covers or pasties that can help you to embellish the outfit. Pasties started out as plain skin coloured adhesives to cover breast tips while wearing a sheer top. Now they include so many colours, styles, shapes and sizes that almost any peek-a-boo item can benefit from the addition of pasties. The other great thing about these covers is if you are going out to eat for that special occasion, you can wear your finest open cup bra or teddy under your sheerest blouse or dress and still look elegant in public.

Body Art and Temporary Tattoos – Stick-on body art comes in endless designs from flowers to animals to stripes, hearts and bows. Slip into your long, flowing, nightgown and add a ring of flowers around your upper arm. The contrast of the coloured flowers with the solid coloured material of the gown will dazzle and entrance.

Long Gloves – Gloves of any length add to an outfit whether it be lingerie or anything else. But to spice up that lingerie selection, choose gloves that come up above the elbow. Either peel them off gingerly to enhance the mood or keep them on and take another direction. Either way, gloves will be a treat.

Jewellery – Jewellery does not have to be expensive to be worn with lingerie. Costume jewellery has the same sparkling effect as real diamonds and gemstones. When wearing gloves, add a thick rhinestone bracelet on the wrist and watch your outfit go from zero to a million. Wear your skimpiest bra and thong and add a wide, obtrusive looking necklace to the ensemble.

Boas or Scarves – Marabou boas have always been popular with lingerie sets. Try something a little different and use a scarf to dress up the outfit.

Remember that these red, hot tips are not only the exclusive domain of Valentine’s Day so why not glamourize your lingerie anytime you are in the mood for a special occasion.
