Here's the beginning of the cleaver ad for Lynx Dry +

After watching this TV ad, you may be racking your brain as to where you’ve seen that lady before? As the two guys walk past her, we get a closer look as she pulls down her shades to check out the Lynx Dry+ wearing talent:

Recognise her yet? You should if you like Elegant Moments Lingerie or the movie Surrogates

Anya Monzikova is the lady in this Top Gun inspired ad. She has been a regular model with Elegant Moments, so if you’ve bought any lingerie online over the past few years, chances are it’s Anya who you were looking at when you added the item to your cart.

Anya Monzikova also had a small part in the movie Surrogates. Here she is in the beauty salon scene:

Anya Monzikova seems to have come away from her lingerie modeling career now, as she’s very rarely seen in any new Elegant Moments lingerie shoots (for their new collection). This must be due to Anya focusing more on the catwalk and movie/TV parts.

Cameron Diaz was a popular model before she got her break in The Mask, so we wish  Anya the best of luck in her movie & TV career.

Now lingerie is a much more sought-after and purchased item, it’s become increasingly easier to find. Major US and European manufacturers (that were once impossible to get hold of) are easily accessible to the web-surfing public now, than ever before. We’re sure you’ll all agree that the Internet has made lingerie shopping, a much more welcomed, enjoyable and less embarrassing task.

We would like to share with you, one such lingerie website, that caught our attention:

The music video had Cheryl Tweedy, wear a number of sexy outfits, putting across a fashionable street-style dance look, with a perfect blend of sexy-fantasy

Probably the most popular outfit that Cheryl wore during that shoot, was the super-sexy combination of a black lace teddy with leather pants. Teddies are a form of lingerie and have been sold for and marketed to the bedroom. However, after seeing Cheryl Tweedy strut her stuff in her street-look combination, it seems such a lace teddy can offer a number of gorgeous styles. Whether it’s to strut your stuff on the dance floor, or treat your man to racy night of passion, you’re all going to need advice on where to hunt for such an item. The one featured in the music video was unfortunately, specially made for Cheryl, but we’ve still got a similar item to perfectly recreate the look!

The stunning lace top that Cheryl wears in her music video, is actually a full body lace teddy

Get The Look

We’ve been hunting high and low for a similar lace teddy and we believe we’ve found one! Our pick is a gorgeous Elegant Floral Lace Teddy, from Elegant Moments:

Debenhams have reported that suspender sales were up a shocking 238% in May. Take a look through popular celeb magazines and you’ll see top celebs bearing all, in their raunchy suspenders:

Our money was on Rihanna to have the most raunchiest look...but Frankie's beaten her to it

Both celebs and high street shoppers, have been reported to take to suspenders, due to our current on/off summer. Suspenders give an incredibly sexy look, but also offer the cover of tights, while being much cooler to wear.

It’s recently been reported that Anna Nicole Smith’s “Used Underwear” has been placed up for auction, online. Among Anna’s old cosmetics (and even bedding) are her bras, knickers and garter belts.

Write a book...carry out an interview...did any of these cross this persons mind? No...lets just sell her used underwear, instead

The sister of Anna’s Ex (Jackie Hatten) is behind the ebay auction. Jackie has also made it clear to fans, that all items up for sale, are 100% legit and will even come with a signed certificate.

The certificate and legitimacy, aren’t the main focus here, Jackie…

‘Supply and Demand’ is a business term used, to explain why a product is created and invested in. Without a solid customer demand for a product, it becomes incredibly hard for a business to succeed. So why are there so few lingerie manufacturers and retailers, that will stand up and meet the demand of larger bra sizes and designs?

Time, Money and Man Power

As unbelievable as it may sound, many lingerie manufacturers and retailers, still see larger bras as a complete and utter risk. Larger bras not only take time to design and develop, but they also take much more material to produce (hence the higher retail prices).

Materials and measurements, are the main reasons for the lack of bigger and more beautiful bras

Once a bra has been made, it must undergo tests. Smaller and more widely sold bras, are much easier to pass such tests as they don’t require such crucial and precise testing. Larger bras however, require an awful lot of testing. Measurements are crucial for a bras success, so once this objective has been accomplished, the support must be tested. If the bra fails, the entire process must be started again. Manufacturing, measurements and support…it’s a costly process that many manufactures dread and completely stay away from. It all comes down to existing retailers, with large numbers of loyal (smaller sized) customers, who simply won’t take the business gamble.

While there are a hand full of good quality retailers out there, far too many seem to let “The risk” get the better of them. After all, “Business” is a risk, no matter what product or service you’re selling. However, if you’re already popular in the industry and there’s proof of such a demand…surly it’s a lower risk…a risk that’s certainly worth taking.

Combining high street stores and online stores for your lingerie and accessories, can still be very challenging

As you may know, Linn’s Lingerie (www.linnslingerie.co.uk) are currently adding new products to their online store, every week. It’s becoming a very good place to shop, for women of all sizes….but what if they temporarily, don’t offer your desired accessory (or lingerie item to go with such an accessory)? Getting in touch via email or their online chat, is an excellent way of getting what you want stocked, but you could also do with a small list of other recommended online retailers, to help you on your way.

Linn’s Lingerie offer a list of Recommended Lingerie sites. The list not only includes lingerie websites, but also includes all forms of clothing and even a few adult entertainment websites, too. Take a look and see if these websites can aid you, in finding your perfect look.

Why are smaller sized bras, given all the focus for design and material? Why are all bra adverts, posters etc., all done with smaller sized women, wearing even smaller sized cups? We don’t blame you for feeling so frustrated, but we do have a recommendation we’d like to share with you all…ever heard of Krisline?

Krisline (or Kris Line) are a polish lingerie designer, that use luxury materials and common sense, to offer truly beautiful lingerie. One of their most popular forms of lingerie, is their plus size bras. Their sizes are well researched and their designs are unique and simply gorgeous.

Krisline Bras offer both generous sizing and beautiful designs

Krisline have really focused on what kind of designs, the “plus sized woman” wants to wear. Their materials are of very high quality and they’re comfortable as they are stunning.

Krisline Bra designs, are a unique take on how plus size bras can look

With the image above, you can see just how well designed and put together, Krisline Bras actually are. Make no mistake, they earn the right to be called ‘Luxury Bras’.

Krisline offer gorgeous lingerie sets, to match their stunning bra designs

As well as unique and beautiful plus size bra designs, Krsline also offer corsets, teddies and many other lingerie items. Most plus size bra designs, will also have matching sets (as pictured above) and they too, are just as luxurious and beautiful.

If you’ve spent years searching for plus size bras (and other forms of lingerie) with the sizes, materials and designs to match, then we recommend you give Krisline a try. They may be slightly more expensive than your high street bra, but once you try them on, feel their quality and take a closer look at their design…you’ll totally understand why.
