    Fishnets – Take Your Dress from Simple to Sensational!

    DKNY 0A074 (click for details)

    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…

    Spring Shapewear Review – Focus on Fashion and Fit

    Cass 1700 (click for details)

    It’s amazing how time is flying by and Spring is just around the corner.  The fashion magazines are already showing all the trends.  I am an absolute fan of Doncaster.  I hosted an event in Stamford CT with a wardrobe stylist Noelle Ward who spoke about the trends for the season.  I loved her descriptions.  Americana is making a return (red, white and blue color stories),and orange is the new “it” color of the season.

    Cass 2050 (click for details)

    Noelle spoke about the fresh look of Black and White.  She wore it well with a spectacular white trench coat that is on my must have list.   It’s all about ruffles this year.  You can take a blouse and pair it with a pencil skirt, or the skirt has the dramatic flair and it is paired with a wide belt and a tunic top that is sleek and fitted.  As usual, women around the world sometimes cringe when they hear the word “fitted”.  Ladies, have no fear…shapewear is your friend for flawless dressing.  Take for instance the fitted knit top that works with a slim pant or skirt.

    A shapewear camisole is a must have.  Cass is leading the season with shapewear that glides on the body and fits but also can be used as fashion statement because of the fabrication.  It does not look like a shaper.   A shapewear slip is also a perfect compliment to the season, or if you prefer a biker short holds you in place and does not ride.  Remember, you can adjust the levels of control now.  Sometimes a girl needs comfort and smooth lines for pants, skirts and clingy fabrics.  As you prepare for spring remember to make shapewear apart of your shopping list.  The fashion possibilities are unlimited…

    Valentines Lingerie Shopping – Loving You!

    The sexiest time of the year is here.  I adore Valentines Day and all the girlie girl stuff.   There is something for every woman.  I remember the days when big puffy slippers and a sheer or silk night gown was considered “the gift”.  Thank goodness we have evolved and the types of gifts and styles for women range from cotton pajamas, sexy bras to two piece sets that work after the special day.  We as women need to connect to this holiday beyond just the boyfriend or husband ritual.  That is just as important, but loving yourself in lingerie is a 365 day affair.  I started being a fan of Valentines Day shopping for me when I saw the vase selection of styles come through the door when I worked in retail.  I thought, wow, this is the time to shop!  The vendors pull out all the stops, and after the big day is over it’s usually sale mania (my favorite).  You can grab some major deals on matching bra and panty sets ( Lingerie Fit Expert Must Have).

    La Perla Malizia 904517 (click for details)

    As for a color story, red and black are the norm, but have you tried the new it color of the season “purple”.  Surprise someone special with a smoking hot purple frock or matching set.  Every fashion magazine is screaming purple passion mania.  I also believe white is perfect as a transition to spring and summer that are right around the corner.

    If you are full fit and fabulous, I highly recommend Freya for beautiful lingerie that is sophisticated and spectacular in fit!  La Perla has taken the limits off this year with a fabulous red and black lace set that fits like a dream.  Several of my clients have purchased and can not thank me enough.  This is a collector and could be worn under the right blouse as a camisole affect.  Think beyond what you see.  Lingerie is a “solution” now for fashion as well.

    This year, I am recommending bra sets to clients.  They are the gift that keeps on giving.  You can use it everyday beyond the special occasion.  Remember, loving you goes beyond just Valentines Day.  It’s all about loving yourself without limits daily.  You are the gift.  Have a wonderful day…

    Sneak Peak at Spring

    Jezebel 12085 (click for details)

    Spring is almost near, and since we have had record breaking cool temps, we wanted to bring our own form of sunshine with a peak at trends coming for Spring 2010.  Simple statements and fresh color patterns are on the horizon.  Stripes mixed with dashes of color and bold orange is the signature color of the season.  I call it a mix of retro fresh chic.  I have always encouraged my clients to select lingerie to go with the season trends. The must have item in my lingerie drawer every season is a color story of camisoles that go with the seasons trend.  This winter I picked hot pink.  I took my basic black wardrobe and pushed it to another level with splashes of hot pink underneath.

    The Short Dress Part Two – Focus on Leggings

    As we have discussed in our previous blog, the short dress is the must have of the season despite record breaking cooler climates.  Even my hair stylist was going to Kansas City for New Year’s and talked about how she was going to wear the short dress with leggings and thigh high boots.  This has been featured in the fashion magazines as well.  The category has exploded with all players in the industry including hosiery icon Wolford.  The Velvet Legging.  This is what I call “all eyes on you”.  Sexy, multiple color options and totally spices up winter wardrobe solutions.  Even if you’re not a fan of the short dress, take ordinary black and make it pop with color leggings.  Hosiery also doubles as shapewear don’t forget! The legging can be worn in place of a shaper.  Sensational style can be so affordable with adding a trend such as leggings to your existing mix.  A new outfit is not always necessary.  Hue also features excellent selections that are fun and priced for budget conscious divas.

    DKNY has been one of my favorites for years.  The price point is reasonable and the fit is great.   DKNY camisole 631007 can be layered under a suit or worn under a turtle neck or v-neck sweater.  Depending on the length of the jacket or top, the lace could be shown as a peek-a-boo affect.  Complete the look with the DKNY 676007.

    The shape provides full coverage while the back provides a total seamless solution with the thong.  Women have always asked me if it’s possible to have shape and be sexy.  Question answered with this one.

    How many holiday parties have you worn shapewear and were uncomfortable?  All the ladies in the room said “YES”.  I know the first time I ever wore a control brief I was 18 attending prom and wishing the night would have ended at 9:00.  OUCH! I am in pain…TC Fine Intimates have heard the cries (literally) of women everywhere.  The new 4125 Light Control Shaper Brief is spectacular.   This is the ultimate in total comfort, total control.  Melts on the skin like your wearing nothing, and shapes the places where you need it most.  As we enter holiday party central, you have got to add this one to the list.  I enjoy the fact that you can wear any bra and create the right solution for you.  As we mentioned, strapless is a common necessity this time of year.  Add a convertible bra that is either molded or not, and create a total one piece illusion.   Get your party on girlfriend!

    Holiday Fashion Trend 09 – The “Little Black Dress” should be in your closet at all times for the unexpected party invitation.

    The Holiday Essentials – Strapless Bras

    Posted on November 30, 2009 in Bras We Love Tags: , , , , ,

    Happy Holidays Divas!  It’s the season of sexy, strapless social dressing.  I love it!  This month we are bringing you the best of lingerie solutions for every occasion.  We kick off this month’s lingerie reviews with strapless bras.   If you’re like a majority of Lingerie Fit Expert clients and readers, this is not their favorite holiday solution.  Why do so many women have a hard time finding a strapless bra that fits?  Over the years, I have determined that fit is the number one reason.

    Panache 3370 (click for details)

    Panache 3370 (click for details)

    People wear strapless either too large or too small.  If you’re a 36C, then you should be in the same size.  The engineering and support has come so far.  Defined cups, excellent fabrications and special enhanced features make this a must have for every woman who loves fashion and options in her wardrobe.  Are favorites this year are Chantelle 3065, Panache 3370, and Dominique 3541.  Chantelle is perfect for the woman who wants shape and no spilling out of the cup.  Panache is my personal favorite for D through G client, a terrific fit but you don’t want to pour out of the bra.  Finally Dominique is affordable.  Sometimes we may only wear a strapless once or twice a year.  Who wants to pay a fortune?  If you’re a petite, Calvin Klein is a winner!  We are just beginning stay tuned for more holiday lingerie solutions.

    One of my favorite stylists is Amy Salinger (www.AmySalinger.Net). Amy has taught me so much about the importance of signature style and the “details” such as hosiery.  Hosiery is truly a way to incorporate instant diva style into your wardrobe.   This is going to be a focus for 09 with my clients and events.  I am excited to partner with Amy in hosting signature seminars for women on fashion, fit and solutions that really work!  I agree with Amy with the fact that every woman should have a pair of fishnets.  My pick is a fashion and shaping solution in one! Leggings are the runway talk of the town right now as well.  Another hit by Spanx is The Tight End Tight Convertible Legging Style 039B.

    Fall Items We Love – Yummie Tummie Lacie Shapewear Tank

    YummieTummie TK1050 - click for details

    I love this item!  Brand new and in time for the upcoming sweater season, Yummie Tummie Tank 1050 gives you the best in shapewear and sexy.  A low plunge v-neck that takes care of the burrito roll and feminine lace for a v-neck or peek-a-boo affect in a blouse.  The TK1057R is a winner for the full busted woman who wants to shape and sculpt, but not “smash” her bust in a tank top.  Both tanks are long and are designed for women who love fashion, style and solutions.  Bravo on this one Yummie Tummie!
