Cruising with the Soroptimists

We would like to congratulate Dale Roberts of Courtenay BC on his win of the September cruise, sponsored by Soroptimist International Courtenay. Unfortunately, Dale didn't win through us, but through Margot Rutherford. It seems he and Dale have a pretty good streak going as Dale previously sold Margot a winning Ducky 500 ticket.

Enjoy your fun in the sun Dale. We hope you and your lucky guest will pop by before you head off and check out our loungewear, perfect for a cruise.

Crocus in the Spring - New Prima Donna

We get asked, from time to time, about lingerie in colours other than black, white or beige. While those three colours are the staple of many an underwear drawer, everyone needs something chosen for indulgence and beauty over utility.

Above is the brand new Prima Donna Deauville in this season's must-have fashion colour: crocus. Crocus particularly compliments the tanned skin of summer (although we recommend you get that tan from a bottle and not the beach).

The Prima Donna Deauville is embroidered with decorative leaves through to the scalloped edging on the cup and strap. This is one strap you don't have to worry about hiding - it's an accessory all on its own.

As usual, Prima Donna has created a design with a larger-bosom in mind. We're carrying this figure-friendly look in sizes 34 - 42, cups C - H. The briefs, with tummy-flattering panels of embroidery hugging the hips and angled down the front, are also available.

It's time. Join us in-store to see the crocus' of spring.

No Wire - No Kidding

We love Anita for their attention to detail both on the outside and in the construction of their underwear. It is precisely this detailing that allows us to offer fully-supportive, wireless bras all the way up to a 44 G cup.

New this week is the Safina, seen right. This bra is perfect for women looking for comfortable support for a full bosom. The wide straps holding at the center of the cup make the look natural as well as supportive, while being wire-free. The cup sports transparent embroidery for a feminine touch.

Anita, also the makers of the fine Rosa Faia line, has been family owned for 125 years. We're always proud to support a family who understands that underwear matters...

Éternelle Chantelle Femininity

The new Éternelle by Chantelle appears eternal to us, in light gray with pink accents. The Éternelle exemplifies enduring femininity and puts us in mind of all the brides we see this time of year.

This design is made from an ultra-fine lace from Calais. This unique pattern of lace was designed specifically to meet Chantelle's exacting specifications.

The Éternelle is a demi-cup bra, meaning it covers less of the breast. And while this can mean less support, it allows for more daring bust lines and increases its delicate, romantic touch.

We're carrying the Chantelle Éternelle in sizes 32 - 38, cup sizes B - F. Get the matching, ruffled brief or thong to complete this subtle, and truly pretty, look.

Feeling Sexy? So is the New Hanky Panky Chemise.

Many women don't have the word "chemise" in their vocabulary, but they should. A chemise is a modern take on a teddy and is more flattering for most women.

A chemise is a short dress designed to hang from the shoulders and flow freely at the waist. Hanky Panky tweaks this design slightly by adding stretch lace cups and adjustable straps, enhancing a woman's bustline and shape.

The Hanky Panky Scroll Lace Chemise is seen right. The scroll lace on the diaphanous fabric is a new pattern for Hanky Panky and perfectly decorates a woman's figure.

The Hanky Panky Scroll Lace Chemise comes with a t-back thong and is available in black and white. Hanky Panky lets you be comfortable while adorning your curves.
