Inspired

Since I mentioned being a decadent housewife yesterday I thought I would put a couple of images of the attire I think best suits the lifestyle. Its from my favourite English lingerie company called What Katie Did, they make amazing lingerie, corsets and so much more. So if your feeling in the mood to swan around the house like a hollywood starlet I suggest you jump online and have a look at their stunning garments.

So ladies start shopping for your inner starlet

What katie did

WOW is the first thing that jumped to mind when I saw this new design from What Katie Did, then the next thing to jump in was "I WANT! I WANT!"

The Pigalle Laurie corset is another dramatic-looking gored-hip style, great on curvy vintage figures as it allows for maximum cinching with optimum comfort. With inspiration drawn from this range's namesake, the naughty Pigalle Quartier of Paris, and the vivid red satin and black floral lace overlay is decadent, elegant and more than a little bit saucy. Laurie is one of What Katie Did newest overbust designs, carefully cut to fit and flatter a wide range of bust sizes. The shaped cups will boost and uplift smaller busts, as well as supporting and enclosing larger cup sizes – up to a generous E. They've made this beautiful corset extra special, by adding a pleated ribbon trim at bottom and along the sweetheart neckline, with a little bow nestling at the décolleté, for that perfect finishing touch.

So jump online and start shopping

If i only could get this to wear next weekend

From the stunning gals at What Katie Did comes this stunning little number from theirvintage style swimsuit range. With all the style and charm of mid-century swimwear, but unlike its predecessors, is suitable to be immersed in both chlorine and salt water! The fully-lined Sailor swimsuit has a supportive, halterneck top, shaped cups and an authentic, skirted bottom that manages to be slimming to larger posteriors, but create curves in smaller ones!

I think I may need this for wintersun....what do you think

In this heat

In this heat I am struggling with my love of stockings. I have invested in some stunning pairs from various providers but with the heat wave in Melbourne its proving a little harder to wear everyday.

So many of you may ask why since the invention of pantyhose or tights would anyone want to wear stockings unless you are trying to rev up the engine of your partner.

Well for me personally they make me walk taller, smile more and generally feel spectacular. There is just something special about walking around knowing that under your dress/skirt is the this silken pleasure is there, only for you and for those you wish to share it with.

I do firmly believe that lingerie is the foundation of you day, so with the right beginnings anything is possible.

I can only advise that ladies its time to hit the shops and grad a pair of stocking. Stay ups or true stockings and walk tall in your beauty.

Hello Sailor

So its time decided on what delicate piece of heaven I will start my week off with.

And the winner is......

Limited Edition Sailor Girl by What Kate Did

Sailor girls were often featured in the work of pin up artists including Elvgren. The underwired Sailor bra is made from navy blue satin and powermesh and features a white trim around the top of the cups..


Cute deep knickers featuring satin covered buttons on the front panel echoing the button fastening used on the front of sailor trousers.

Vintage inspired 6 strap suspender belt made from navy blue satin and powermesh. Features 2 embroidered white stars on the front section of the belt (US sailor scarves feature 2 stars on the back) and white trim.

So i think it may be time to get the money order out and wait by the post box for a package of joy.

XXX to you all

1 + 1 + 1= lingerie longevity Part1

What Kate Did Lingerie

Right now you may be wondering what on earth I am talking about. However after recently discovering that many women, including ones I know, are wearing the wrong size lingerie and don't follow the lingerie longevity rules I thought I might share them with you all.

Its pretty simple; most of us like we like to wear a matching bra and panties set. But we all know you can often get two wears out of a bra before washing which means every second time its worn you not matching. So when ever you by a bra buy 2 panties.

Personally I buy 1 bra and the 2 different types of panties, either g-string, boy cut briefs or traditional briefs. Now you may be thinking "I don't have all that spare cash to buy lingerie". Buts is about getting the most out of your lingerie dollar. As panties are usually the first to go have a second set to extend the life of your bra is a good thing. Also when watching the dollar keep your eyes peeled for briefs that can match with bras you already own. My other favourite thing is to sneak into the DFO stores (direct factory outlet) for lingerie companies as you can often pick up a third or fouth pair of briefs for up to 70% off RRP. It just means you have to remember what you already have.

So next time your wondering out to the lingerie department have a think about what you have, what you need and the qty your going to get.

Happy Shopping
