La Perla - Fall/Winter 2012 Lingerie Campaign

We've seen some stunning campaigns for La Perla over the years, and once again the iconic lingerie brand outdoes itself with yet another eye-catching set of images.  Clearly the Fall/Winter 2012 collection is Asian-inspired yet still strong with the classic Italian lingerie design.  We can't say this enough, but we love it when a lingerie brand creates a gorgeous story with its lookbook.  As always, La Perla is elegant, sophisticated and rich, so its no wonder so many of our customers ask for it (though we remind them that there is a vast world of luxury lingerie that exists that simply doesn't have the marketing dollars La Perla has!).  Our personal favorites (items we would buy for ourselves) include those in the first two images, though we would gladly take any of the pieces shown here!
It looks like the F/W 2012 collection hasn't arrived in stores yet, but keep an eye out because it's sure to arrive soon!

Mierswa & Kluska: Jewelry & Garter Belts

Accenting your garters & hosiery with diamonds & jewels is the ultimate in luxury embellishment, and in this case, the ultimate in an eye-catching jewelry ad campaign.  These images for Park Avenue jewelry caught our eye not so much for the gems but for the sexy hosiery and the peek of pretty lingerie.  The funny thing is that we thought these photos were an update to those we posted on our blog a few years back from V Magazine.  The reality is that these have nothing to do with it, and just share the coincidence of similar styling, concept and posing (maybe not a coincidence then?).  Anyhow, we wish we had some credits for the hosiery and lingerie, but sadly there are none.  In the meantime, we can simply be inspired by the look and maybe do a simpler, small-scale version of this for ourselves!
By the way, here's one image from the V Magazine shoot we referenced above...

Sockbox - Luxury Lingerie

It's always fun to discover a brand that embraces our frou-frou spirit, which is why we're pleased to share our favorite pieces from the designer SockBox.  Though the brand was established in 2008, it was with the magic of our Pinterest page that we discovered this Latvian label!  Sweeping, dramatic lace and polka dot accents were enough to get our attention, and of course a variety of designs in simple yet luxurious neutrals make these pieces timeless.  We love that Sockbox not only creates lingerie and nightwear, but that it also creates matching hosiery as well as darling matching garter belts & straps.  Each item is handmade from the highest quality fabric and lace, and certainly made for the lady seeking to add a dose of glamour to her life. 

Sockbox just recently launched an online store, so these pieces and quite a few more are available on their website!  And who knows, maybe one day you will see them at Faire Frou Frou!
