Photo Friday: Ashley Graham

February 16th, 2012 >> Black And White Striped Stockings

You could remember Ashley Graham from previous week’s media circus around the Lane Bryant corset lingerie commercial. Frankufotos Lingerie (a blog which I check nearly everyday) did an incredible write-up on the whole event, along with among the text he posted a photo in one of Ashley’s most recent limbs taken from Madison Plus through Erick Basilo.

I’m sure it won’t amaze anyone to hear which i love this article. Not only does it reinforce Ashely’s undeniable sex charm, it also proves that you could look great wearing economical lingerie. Almost every item in this set can be taken from American Apparel, and Ms. Graham entirely rocks all of them. Which chance is your favorite?

G.S. Enjoyed this week’s Picture Friday? Then please give it a thumbs up on StumbleUpon!

Love brazier, panties, garter belts, along with stockings? The enter the Kiss and lick Me Deadly lingerie giveaway!

Oh my health benefits…we are getting down on the metaphorical wire now, beloved readers. In just 14 days, I’ll be strutting, shimmying, and otherwise trembling my stuff facing a live audience pertaining to my burlesque recital. My behave is finally working together, but as points get closer to the big day I find myself getting more and more nervous. What if my pasties go away? What if I trip as well as fall over our high heels? What if our zipper breaks? What in the event that everyone hates my act? The anxiety is sheer torture.

Even as we move from learning the theory of burlesque to putting it into practice, there is a bit less that i can talk about here. Last week’s course consisted of costuming tricks as well as issues, along with various techniques and types regarding humor. We learned about rapid release tricks, embellishing our costumes, removing apparel, and how to use vintage items (like gloves and boas). We also mentioned the difference between farce, satire, parody, and satirical comedy, and also about ways to be funny (such as exaggeration, embarrassment, lure & switch, and juxtaposition). Without supplying too much away, my own act definitely contains elements of exaggeration and parody. All things considered, my costume factors include a bespangled catsuit, assorted plastic-type material weaponry, and a humongous afro hairpiece (seriously…it’s massive).

Tonight (I’m truly writing this in a cafe while waiting for my private lesson to start), we did the first dress rehearsal of our routines. As almost as much as I’ve practiced, recited, along with listened to my audio…there is absolutely nothing similar to getting on stage facing people and trying to put it all together. I won’t lay…I was horrible. But the actual upside is that now I have a better a feeling of what to work on. Even now…I’m not sure if I’m going to post my final routine on YouTube or otherwise not. You all promise to get nice if I carry out?

Oh…as well as the big lingerie evaluate extravaganza starts tomorrow! I apologize for the delay; We have spent the past few days hanging out with this guy. But We promise to get items back on track here pretty soon. As always, thanks for stopping by and reading The actual Lingerie Addict.

January 25th, 2012 >> Black And White Striped Stockings

Leopard print is the wild card (pardon your pun!) of the nighties world. As I mentioned inside a post from 2009 animal print underwear done well is sexy, naughty, and also fierce. Done poorly, it’s just cheap, trashy, and tacky.

Unfortunately, the majority of leopard print lingerie comes into that next category rather than the first one. Need proof? Just take a look at this well-known lingerie retailer, who was simply first in Google look for when I typed leopard printing lingerie.

Modern day Ask the Enthusiast feature comes due to Evija, who frequently graces your blog with her insightful as well as savvy comments. Evija acquired several questions for me personally, and I tried to respond to them as best I could. Remember, if you have something to provide, please don’t hesitate for this in the comments. I enjoy hearing what you just about all have to say!

R: Hey Treacle!

I’ve seen you’ve recently clarified quite a bunch of your readers’ questions, so I thought it’s about time I distribute mine and see whether or not you can help me!

1) Almost every lingerie keep has bra traction devices as their lingerie accessory. But what to do with any band size a bit too big? I’ve lost a couple pounds recently and think even though all brazier still do the support part rather properly, I’d like the band a little tighter.

2) Perhaps you could do a submit for all the colour freaks all there and submit the lingerie sites that allow you to browse by simply colour? I stumbled upon this when I made a promise to personally buy more environmentally friendly lingerie! and I did not found much aside from Figleaves. I’m rather fanatic in the direction of jewel colours and nearly hate the particular pastels, and frankly, celebrate life hard!

Three or more) I’m rather taller (nearly 5′ 9) sufficient reason for rather massive legs that isn’t too valuable when it comes to finding nylons. Thus far I have bought merely the KMD’s Ophelia, and even though I picked out size 5, I had created the welt a mere Half a dozen inches above my knee, which isn’t quite the thing My spouse and i sought for. And also I’ve heard the actual Cervins run even smaller! And StockingsHQ offer only lycra-heavy extra tall stockings.

In additional news, I think the new Review Wednesday is often a rather neat notion, can’t wait to see more!

Best wishes,

Evija

The: Hi Evija! Thanks for producing. I’ll answer your questions in the order you’ve offered them above.

1) There are a few different ways to deal with a too-large band dimensions. In order of least to most time-consuming, you could try regular sewing extra hook-and-eye closures onto the music group and cutting aside the excess. You could also go ahead and take bra to a dressmaker or tailor that could professionally consume the band for you. Or (and this is the alternative I’m most in support of) you could just scrap your old bras and start afresh. I realize that’s hard to do, specially when you might have to drop your favorites, yet chances are that your weight loss has changed more than simply your band size. I recommend going in for the professional bra appropriate, and then treating yourself to a new lingerie wardrobe!

2) Unfortunately, when it comes to surfing around lingerie by colour, the only store I realize of that allows that’s the same one anyone already use…Figleaves. I’m afraid you’ll have to search for treasure tones the old-fashioned approach.

3) As a long-legged 5’8 gal, I empathize together with your hosiery plight. The keep that I’ve found contains the best stockings assortment, in terms of height, bodyweight, color, and style, will be Stockingirl.com. Check them out there and tell me what you think!

Got a lingerie question you want answered by an expert? Just mail a note over to thelingerieaddict@gmail.net. I read every e-mail, i try to answer them much too!

What I Wore to the Seattle Erotic Disciplines Festival (SEAF).

Posted by: admin

January 4th, 2012 >> Black And White Striped Stockings

Yesterday, The Boyfriend and I sought out on a real date and attended the 8th annual San antonio Erotic Arts Festival, held in the Washington Center. Events like SEAF are not only found a great place to discover and be seen, they’re also an excellent excuse pertaining to dressing up.

I had the chance pull out my custom made Totally Waisted corset (which I never have worn since September–last seen in my Dragon*Con post the following) and paired this with an Alexander McQueen for Target skirt and Chicago Perla stockings.

Unfortunately, photography wasn’t allowed at the event, but you will find dozens of photos from your spectacle (including a wonderful burlesque show…which in turn featured my teachers Inga Ingenue and The Shanghai Pearl) below on Facebook (almost certainly NSFW).

Hope everyone were built with a nice weekend, and are avalable back tomorrow for any very special post on How to Buy Nighties for Mother’s Day.

Are Curvy Ladies Too Sexy with regard to TV?

Posted by: admin

January 4th, 2012 >> Black And White Striped Stockings

In a tasty morsel of lingerie-related news that is sweeping the dunia ngeblog, Lane Bryant alleges that ABC network turned down their brand new Cacique nighties ad for being way too sexy. Yes, the very same ABC that broadcasts the Victoria’s Secret manner show every year.

Based on Lane Bryant, ABC demanded excessive editing and recuts because the model’s cleavage was, well, too cleavagey. ABC strenuously denies the promises and is all but getting in touch with Lane Bryant a bunch of liars.

No matter what actually happened, it is really an excellent excuse to publish a couple of lingerie ads. For your perusal, I present the pleasantly sexy Lane Bryant lingerie ad, followed by the scandalously scintillating Victoria’s Secret ad from their most recent fashion present.

Tell me which one you want in the comments!

Burlesque 101: The last Session

Posted by: admin

January 1st, 2012 >> Black And White Striped Stockings

Well, I am almost to the end of my late night journey. A couple of days ago, we had the very last class before the show. That night had been all about the dress rehearsal. I put on full dress-up costume, makeup and wig (I kind of resemble Beyonce from Goldmember, which is why the woman’s picture is up over) and rocked out to my personal music. While there are still a number of rough patches (specially around the things I just added this week similar to my high heels and also afro wig), I’m super-excited concerning performing my bit on-stage in front of an honest-to-goodness target audience this Saturday.

While members of the audience defintely won’t be allowed to take images or video (that i understand completely…you have to protect the level of privacy of all the students), I’m hoping the official photographer as well as videographer for the show are certain to get some great images involving me. If so, you had best believe I am going to share them all along with you here, on the website.

I feel like I should use this entry to give a bit more background on my small character. As mentioned inside my very first burlesque school post, her brand is Velvet Chicago Soie. I know a lot of viewers were rooting for a stage name with Treacle inside it, but this character feels so very, very different from me that she deserves her own name. I really like the way Velvet L . a . Soie slithers off the tongue; it feels very sexual…and just a little bit great.

If you haven’t got from all my personal references to afro wigs along with catsuits, Velvet is a figure firmly rooted in the Blaxploitation era of the Seventies. She’s a real badass, and spends her days stopping all kinds of Grade A booty. But she also offers a softer aspect, one where she wears thick dorky glasses and reads comics and watches Superman (yes, I know…just about all hobbies which appear suspiciously similar to my own. ). In my routine, My partner and i show Velvet changing from a day out in the streets to a tranquil evening at home…with many different stripping, of course.

Over the following few days, I’ll focus on refining my make-up, practicing my program, and selling our tickets. The next time My partner and i write about burlesque, it will be to tell you how my own very first performance at any time went. . Thank you so much for sharing the journey with me.

Lust: Playboy Sequined Lingerie

Posted by: admin

December 3rd, 2011 >> Black And White Striped Stockings

Between the costs of transferring and the costs of just living, I’m on a slight lingerie diet. No fresh skivvies for the next month or two…even though I do anticipate raising the ban with time for a birthday celebrate! Anyhow, while going to Sweet Cherry Vintage (among the numerous amazing blogs on my own blogroll), I ran across this information on Playboy Corset lingerie.

The good folks from Playboy have only released an new version of their classic Rabbit Corset costume. While it’s not fairly for me (I’ve seen better quality elsewhere for less…even though without the Playboy identify), this hot little number caught attention.

I know, I know. It can be cheap. It’s trashy. It’s tasteless. It’s completely improper. But I love it anyway. And I can’t help yet think how wonderful this bra along with panty set would look on period during my next late night performance. What say anyone?

Have I (ultimately) lost my mind or could I display this over-the-top look? Let me know in the responses!

Tinsel for Your Ta-tas: A Nippies Assessment

Posted by: admin

December 2nd, 2011 >> Black And White Striped Stockings

The glow from last weekend’s burlesque demonstrate is just starting to reduce, but before I set aside my afro wig and my booty shorts, I want to review my choice of nipple handles for that evening…Nippies by Bristol6.

Many people have worn nipple covers, and most of us have heard of pasties, but Nippies is the better of both of these worlds. It combines the adhesive properties of a regular nipple area concealer with the glistening, jewel-like qualities of a pastie.

Bristol6 ended up being kind enough to transmit me a sample from the sparkly gold stars pictured above, and they were absolutely remarkable. Not only did these people completely cover my personal nipples, they also stayed at in place through a pair of sexy, sweat-inducing burlesque exercises. I wore my Nippies for any total of six hours, and they didn’t move, budge, or get until I peeled them off at night. Several regarding my fellow friends complimented me in having such a great alternative to traditional pasties.

There is only one downside, but it is a pretty significant one particular…you can only put them on once. At around $7.50/pair, they just don’t quite qualify as an every day extravagance. However, in case you fan Nippies on Myspace, they’ll take 15% away from your order and give you free shipping until Might 1st. Hmmm…maybe I should pick up one more pair or two.

One of several big reasons that I love lingerie is it can be your own freakish secret. The wonderful constraint of a corset, the smooth feel of stocking on your own legs, knowing that under your clothes is a alluring little secret that only you (and those that you’d like to learn) know. Lingerie making you sashay a little more, hold your face higher, flirt a little more, and feel sexy all day long.

Oh yeah lingerie- how I doth love thee! I’m a curvy vintage loving gal and I would become nothing without my own girdle and longline bras! After i wear them I feel audacious and they are a MUST while i perform with my own rockabilly band.

Corset lingerie makes me fall in love with my body. I love the way in which nylons hug my shins, or the way my own waist cincher makes me stand a little straighter and also literally look like a good hourglass.

I love lingerie because it makes me feel great with or with out clothes. Lingerie is actually my oomph and incredible. And because putting on spanx with my high midsection pants makes my sweetheart say your rear end looks so good, their boarder line inappropriate.

I’ve always adored lingerie for the aesthetic and how it makes me feel. Most importantly, I will buy at my flavor level without breaking the bank, which I can’t say with regard to clothing.
