Sexy at its Best!

According to our lovely reader NutriGirl, we were informed that this shoot was by Vincent Peters, and that all of the lingerie is Dolce & Gabbana

Eva Herzigova for GQ Italy - August 2008

We are just loving these images of Eva Herzigova from the August 2008 issue of GQ Italy. Shot in Ibiza, this shoot seems reminiscent of that iconic scene from From Here to Eternity. The swimwear and lingerie are perfect, as well as the choice for who to model. We're so happy we discovered these, and wanted to share!
Now if only we knew who designed those adorable white panties with the satin bow!

(update: Thank you to NutriGirl for the additional details for this post!!)

Corrie Bond photography

We love this photo shoot by Corrie Bond because it shows a realistic look of lounging in sexy lingerie. The reality is that we're not hanging out in garter belts and thigh highs all weekend, but more likely relaxing in a cozy sweater and boyshorts (or flannel pants and a college t-shirt!).
The top image is from a shoot she did for Target - we just love how cute this look is! Granted, this look is not quite as common/everyday as the others that we've posted, but it's sweet nonetheless.
Take a cue from Corrie Bond and relax in your skivvies this weekend!

Barbie wears Wundervoll!

We love that Barbie also has a Philippe Starck Louis Ghost Armchair!! our Louis chair is shown in this post.

It must truly be an honor when a young lingerie company such as Wundervoll is asked to design a special ensemble for Barbie's 50th Anniversary! We are so happy for them! We even love the outfit they designed...but we have to wait until Spring 2010 until it hits stores. As for the Wundervoll Barbie, it will be part of the lingerie exhibit "Barbie Undressed" at BOUDOIR (which is a tradeshow in Germany) and then on view at the Galeries Lafayette from June 16-July 28, 2009.
For those of you unfamiliar with the label, it is a high-quality luxury essentials brand from Germany. Most of their pieces are made from a natural silk jersey and organic cotton. The most complete collection of their designs can be bought here.
Wundervoll has received some wonderful press as of late - congratulations!
By the way, in researching for this post, we discovered that Barbie has her own blog...it's pretty cute too (and geared toward more of an adult audience)! Visit it here.

Chickie getting bored with the photo shoot. By the way, she's a Pomeranian who lost most of her fur due to a genetic disorder.

Just showing that my room isn't as pink as it appeared in the last post! I definitely have fresh flowers in a vase every chance I can...these are from my garden.

A dresser vignette - the St. Germain bottle reminds me of a perfume bottle.

We just wanted to give a special thank you to everyone who so kindly commented on our boudoir makeover! What a great response!

Some of the featured brands at this exhibit include M&S, Triumph, La Perla, Christian Dior, Elle Macpherson, Myla, Wonderbra and Wundervoll (as well as others).
The show is on now through September 27, 2009. Click here for details.
