Many of you may have heard about the contest that was going on - it involved designing a pair of underwear and coming up with a safe sex slogan to go with it. The idea was to not only get people talking about safe sex, but also to make it easier for people to talk about it when they were in the midst of canoodeling.
When all was said and done, there were over 500 entries at undiescontest.com and these entries brought in 650,000 votes! That's amazing!
The grand prize winner of the contest was Tina Nguyen, whose entry was titled "Riding Safely." You can view her entry here; soon, you'll be able to purchase it to.
Ever wish you could saunter across the bedroom in lingerie from yester-year? That ultra-feminine, glamorous look that would bring Carey Grant to his knees?
Now you can.
Introducing Agent Provocateur's Elegant Esme line. Held together with simple ribbon bow-ties, this line of lingerie is made from silk chiffon and is stunning.
An investment, I'll admit. The soft-cup bra will set you back $105, and the matching panties are another $90. But, for a special occasion, or just for that extra-special treat, it's well worth it. Besides, imagine the look on your partner's face when they see you; we think you'll agree you can justify the price.
First, I would like to apologize for my extended absence, both here and at Fashion-Fox. For anyone that lives in the Northeast part of the United States, you know the weather has been nothing short of challenging. For any of you that live elsewhere, it has been an extended period of power outages, lost internet connections, and lots of rain.
Anyway, just wanted to get that out of the way. Now on to what you're really here for; lingerie!
Hanky Panky is a well-known name in the lingerie industry. Started 30 years ago after a gift of lingerie, created from hand-embroidered hankies, was exchanged between Gale Epstein, the President/Creative Director and Linda Orzeck, the CEO.
Best known for the comfort of their thongs, the Wall Street Journal has described them as "lace butter." Celebrities also happen to be very big fans. In fact, the thongs are so well known, and loved by so many, that they have their very own "diary" on the website featuring testimonials from happy customers. If you've got a thong story and they like it enough to include it, they'll send you a free gift.
Want to try your own pair? You can find them in a number of high-end retailers such as Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman, and Saks, or at select online retailers as well. Use the Hanky Panky search function to find them.
Barbara Paris has been around since 1926, a little over 80 years now, and they're still designing some of the most beautiful and timeless lingerie I've ever seen. The company has always been fantastic at staying ahead of the trends, almost like they've got a sixth sense about what women want……
Don't think you're lucky enough to win? If you'd rather just buy it, the lines are available at a number of fine retailers, you can treat yourself to this little luxury for just a small investment. A little over $100 will get you a set.
Agent Provocateur has really outdone themselves this time. If you already think that Kylie Minogue is one of the sexiest women alive, this video certainly won't change your mind! Watch Kylie prove that Agent Provocateur has the world's most erotic lingerie.
Figleaves has been a popular destination for women's lingerie; and now they're offering up Elle Macpherson intimates. The Dentelle boyshort provides full coverages, but is styled in lacy sophistication.
Available in a variety of colors such as Cameo, Jet Rose, Strawberry Ice, and Warm Charcoal. French Nude is currently out of stock.
Since we seem to be all about lingerie and underwear related gossip today, I might as well throw down the "Nick Adams is the new fact of 2(x)ist," story too.
If you want to read the Page Six version, head over here. According to 2(x)ist, "“……Nick [is] younger, sexy, more interesting (ed.note than his direct competitor). On top of that, his body was crazy. We set up a meeting, and when he walked in, that was it. We never even looked at anyone else after that…..He’s up and coming, the new face of sexy. He’s original. He’s hot.”
A fifty-something Los Angeles meter-reader gets hit in the eye with a metal fastener from a pair of Victoria's Secret thongs; I mean, everyone gets their panties in a bunch - pun fully intended - when they get a ticket, right?
But this, my friends, is no joke. It was reported earlier today by ABC news that a 52-year-old-woman, who happens to work in parking enforcement, is suing the mega-lingerie giant due a "malfunction" of her thong underwear which caused a clasp to break off and hit her in the eye.
Somehow, this doesn't surprise me……
No word yet on what law this is covered under
Starting just yesterday, a campaign was launched in Britain to find the best set of "puppies, jugs, or knockers," for a new Wonderbra line focusing on cup sizes D to G. According to their website, the line was designed to flatter and enhance a more curvaceous figure.
Did you know that 40% of women are now a D+? I sure didn't. But according to Wonderbra, it's so.
Think you've got the cleavage they're looking for? Chances are you do. They're looking for thousands of women to take part, from an A cup right on through to a G. There is no fee to take part, you only need to show up.
So, what do you get for the trouble of nearly baring it all? Your photo, along with all the others, plastered on an enormous billboard in Central London. Wonderbra's shooting to show off the "biggest collection of boobs ever seen." In addition to the billboard, they will be creating a 2009 charity calendar for breast cancer charities.
The event starts at 9am sharp on Saturday, June 28th at No. 1 Leicester Square, London. Bring all your friends, and some id, just in case you don't look over 18. Can't make it? That's okay, you can still participate! Just email you name, d/o/b and a pic of you in your Wonderbra to online.wonderbra@dbaeu.com.
For any woman that loves a comfy pair of pajamas to lay around in on a rainy weekend, I offer up Carole Hochman.
Truly, some of the most comfortable pajamas I own, they are lightweight, non-frumpy, softy, and you won't be embarrassed to grab your newspaper in them. My favorite pair of the line happens to be the enchanted solid pajamas. With their cute little scalloped neck-line, I feel ultra-feminine even on my laziest of days. And, as an added bonus, I can actually do the carpool in these and not be completely horrified if I get pulled over for speeding. Carole's line also offers gowns and robes that are equally as cute.
But, unequivocally, my favorite thing about Carole Hochman is her involvement in Sanctuary, a safe-haven for women and their children that are escaping the horrors of domestic violence. Recognizing that many women leave with only the clothes they have on, she donates a pair of pajamas and a robe to every woman that enters the Sarah Burke House.
Interested in getting a little Carole Hochman of your own? Use their store locator to find a spot near you, or order online and have it shipped right to you door.
