As you can see, we revamped our blog with a cleaner and hopefully prettier layout! We love a little makeover, so we're enjoying the new look!

We wanted to share the news that we selected the winner of our Valentine's Day lingerie giveaway! The winner, Dallas Shaw, has been contacted and will receive her lingerie set. Thank you SO much to everyone who entered the contest...each and every one of your responses was amazing and very much appreciated. Again, we wish we could give free sets to everyone who entered!!

The good news for those of you still wishing to win an lingerie set is that there is a new contest in which you can enter to win it. One of our favorite photographers, Elizabeth Messina, just launched a new website called Kiss the Groom. It's a lovely website that "celebrates life, love and kisses". The site is filled with Elizabeth's work, and has an adorable feature called the Kissing Tree. Basically, you personalize the little heart carving on the tree and get a free copy of your very own Kissing Tree. Click here to make your own!

Elizabeth Messina; Lingerie & Beautiful Photography

We have been fans of Elizabeth Messina's photography for a few years, and we are so pleased to be able to share her work with you! Elizabeth's work ranges from editorial to personal, but she is particularly known for her wedding photography. You've pretty much have seen her work at one point or another if you read magazines such as Oprah, Martha Stewart, Town & Country, InStyle, etc.
If you have a big day coming up in 2009, Elizabeth Messina is the person to book! It is our hope to do just that (a photo shoot here at Faire Frou Frou).
We think the boudoir-styled photos such as those shown would be an amazing gift for your significant other. Actually, it would be a perfect Valentine's gift...but you need to get some sexy and amazing lingerie first.
You can check out Elizabeth's website for a sampling of her work, and of course we have posted some of her boudoir pictures here! The lingerie in the photos is tastefully and beautifully represented - we love it! You can see why she is our favorite...
