Sugar Lace Lingerie

Everyone who likes shopping on Etsy knows that you can get stuck there forever. Searching for different items, and just finding more and more stuff to add to your shopping list. Well, here's another Etsy shop to add to that list! It's called Sugar Lace Lingerie and is owned by Adrianna Tenoiro, who creates beautiful, very feminine lingerie! Everything is handmade, often comes in several different colors, and has a very sweet vintage look. Here are a few of the items in her shop. The rest you find here!

Bohemique Lingerie

I have blogged about fashion brand Bohemique before, but a while ago Kizzy of the blog The Dainty Dolls House posted a picture from one of their collections I hadn't seen before. After a bit of investigation I found out Bohemique has created a new demi couture capsule collection of garter belts! Thank you Kizzy!!! I love the look of these garter belts, and it would be a shame to wear anything over them so they couldn't be seen! Haha! I could definitely go to a party in one of these. Here they are!

Marlene...

If you like vintage clothes - and vintage lingerie - you probably know about the retro lingerie company What Katie Did. I've already blogged about some of their fabulous stuff before, but as I love them, here we go again! One of their styles is called Marlene, and this is the set I lust mostly for right now...




Marlene comes in red and peach, or...




...Black and peach, with a bullet bra, panties, and garter belt. I don't own a bullet bra yet, so maybe it's time to get one, to wear under 50s sweaters. They're great for poking peoples eyes out if they stare too much! Haha!







If you want to shape your waist a little, there are also color-matched, art deco inspired Marlene girdles. They are high waisted, with medium control and hooks in the side. As it's soon my birthday, I think it's only right that someone gets these for me! Right?...

For more of What Katie Did, visit their website here, or just click on the banner below. I will not be held responsible for anyone spending too much money on their stuff though! Hehe...

Von Follies by Dita von Teese

When I first looked at Dita von Teese's lingerie collection Von Follies I immediately wanted the black overwire bra. It didn't exist in my 32 A size by then though, so for a long time I haven't payed so much attention to it. But then, a few weeks ago, I took a peek at it again, and noticed the bra was now being sold in my size! Yay! Of course I ordered it, together with a pair of panties with a matching garter belt, and here they are! Just wish I could have done a proper shoot, with a better camera for these pictures. But sometimes there just isn't enough time...


I ordered everything from Debenhams, but the panties that are paired with the black overwire bra were out of stock, so I decided to go with the black lace and fishnet brief, and it's matching garter belt instead - which turned out to work really well with the bra!


The panties have a sheer backside, and even though I show them with the garters over them here (because it looks better in pictures) the right way to use a garter belt is with the straps underneath the panties! As I almost always wear stockings instead of pantyhose, I was happy to see the Von Follies garters are equipped with six straps and metal clasps, which means they will be able to hold my stockings in place all day long.

The bra can be worn with or without the straps, and in my opinion it's meant to be shown off! Like in the picture above where Dita wears it underneath The Showcase Dress from her Muse collection. Wish I could afford this dress, but even though her dresses might be a bit pricey, the pieces in her lingerie collection come at very good prices! And even though they won't break your bank accounts, they still feel - and look - really well made! So as long as they come in my size, I will definitely get more Von Follies lingerie in the future!
