A thong is still popular for the ultimate no line solution.  The hi-cut brief and full brief are always “safe”.  They provide ample coverage and no struggle with fit on the hip line and rear.  Let the fun and shopping begin!

What woman does not love lace lingerie?  It’s glamorous, soft to the touch, and makes your soul come alive.  Lace has also become another way to do seamless if you have challenges.

No lines are seams are possible with lace.  You can take your lingerie to another level when you incorporate lace into the clothing mix as well.  Try a camisole with a slim skirt for a holiday party.  Yes, you can wear it out with the help of a shapewear camisole or a stretchy liner.

Lace in long sleeve is a perfect compliment to faux fur jackets and trench coats if you want to do the inner wear/outer wear connection.  Don’t forget the bottom half.  Matching lace underwear is a must!  Go confidently sexy diva!

I have always been a fan of animal prints.  Whether you’re a leopard, zebra or snake skin fan, making a statement with animal (of course none harmed) is fashion chic.  This year leopard is making a huge splash on the cat walk and fashion pages.  I have seen everything from handbags to hair accessories.  In the land of lingerie, there are a multitude of solutions for the cheetah ladies who love the print.   You can layer it with a shapewear camisole, or show it as a solution with a bra.  If you like it, but don’t love it try incorporating it into underwear.  If you want to make a statement, a tight or legging is the ultimate wow factor. Get wild this fall.

As I was watching Lady Gaga on the Today Show and her videos, the Fame Monster as she affectionately calls herself wears great fitting bras.  Bravo Lady Gaga! Some have been simple and some bedazzled and some a big WOW.  I am a fan of the beautiful bra.  The bra that when we put it on says ” I need to be seen”.

Of course, the majority of us are not bold enough like Ms. LG, but we have those times when if we are going to show it, flaunt it and look fantastic.  The ruffle top, and vintage inspired collections that have returned have allowed us to wear lace with seams.  As we approach fall, put a lace bra on the list.  Black is back in a big way, but keep it sexy with a touch of color.  Bella…

In the mid 90’s designer and icon Josie Natori began a line of lingerie camisole tops that you could wear out.  At first, my clients did not understand the concept.  They would always ask, is this to be seen?  I would always be so excited to show them how to incorporate the tee into their wardrobe.  I personally rocked an orange v-neck camisole of hers for years!Spring is a time to be creative in your shopping.

Advice:  On a budget?  Reinvent your entire wardrobe by purchasing three or four key camisoles.  Select different styles including no sleeve, long sleeve, prints and solids.  You will be amazed how your wardrobe will look brand new!

In early 2000, I began wearing fishnet hosiery due to the prompting of a friend.  She was gazing at my outfit and asked if I had ever tried fishnets.  I said no and never will.  I told her I felt it was not appropriate for daytime.  After a brief dialogue she convinced me to step out of my box and I gave it a try.  I started with a black suit.  The reaction I received was insane from both men and women.

Wow, I have got to try this!  Where did you get those? And of course my favorite, GO SEXY!  I was hooked and ironically, I secretly did have an issue with my off black hosiery that really did not match my skin tone.  As we enter spring, this is my recommendation for every woman.  I am even hooked on the thigh high hosiery for trousers.

They have color choices in chocolate brown and nude.   The cool neutral is in this year in a big way.  This not only makes a statement, but creates a sophisticated allure to your fashion statement.

You can never have enough color in your wardrobe.  If you don’t want to do it in your top or bottom, create a monochromatic dramatic effect and pop the hosiery as “the accessory”.  It’s a total power dressing statement.

Define your style with hosiery solutions…

I bought a handbag a couple of months ago.  When purchasing I sort of stepped back, looked it over and pondered if I would use the bag all the time because of the color.  It was gray and I never owned anything in this color.  I became confident with my choice as women and men complimented me on my bag.  Wow, it’s a winner!  It caused me to look at other options for my discovery of this very sophisticated color.  I noticed that I could put the bag with multiple colors from dark to light.

How perfect for us women who want a new color that goes beyond beige or nude for lingerie.  In the case of the Fantasie Full Figure Set, you can mix this into your black or khaki color story.  You will find the color gray in a variety of tones.  Dark pewter to light silver is the palate range.  Instead of selecting your normal black, white and beige try gray!
