Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Readers!  LOL, I found this pic somewhere and thought it was hilarious, plus it had lingerie in it which, like me I'm sure you can appreciate!  I hope you all have a wonderful celebration tonight!  At least try to pop your cork at midnight!  Be safe and don't drink and drive!  See ya next year for more fun!

Year End Review

Hard to believe another year is coming to a conclusion!  It's been a strange year for me personally, a lot of change going on.  Seems like the more you try to simplify, the more complicated things can get.  Modern life is full of hoop jumping for sure.  On a positive note, besides having survived the Mayan Apocalypse, I'm on schedule to make 138 posts this year, the most ever for this blog!  I can honestly say it wasn't always easy to get posts in either.  I know they weren't always the most in depth, but I did try, for you my loyal readers! ;^)  I hope you've all enjoyed reading my posts this year and will continue coming back next year as well.  Have a great weekend!

PS: The beautiful lingerie pictured today is by Discover Madamoiselle and available from LA's very own lingerie boutique Faire Frou Frou.

VS Sale

Howdy Readers!  Hope your Christmas went well.  In case you didn't get what you wanted (ahem lingerie), you might want to check out VS' semi annual sale going on right now.  There's a few nice things in there I wouldn't mind getting.  I believe the physical store sale starts right after New Year.  I went to the store before during the sale and it was a mad house!  I got a lot of funny looks, but don't let that stop you! :^D

As you can see they're offering free shipping on $100 or more orders (code SHIP100 at checkout).  I think that's their standard rate though.  At any rate go over and have a look, it's always fun to browse, even if you don't buy anything.

Twas the Night Before...

Hola Readers!  Well, I'm hoping you have the day off and that you aren't going to need to go to the stores today.  Did you trim your tree yet?  LOL, Here's how I'd like my tree trimming to be like!

Have a very Merry Christmas everyone!  May Santa bring you something nice, even if you were naughty!

Elves

Hello Readers!  Well, you made it to Friday, and guess what?  There's still a couple more days for you to shop, although I'm sure the mall parking lot will be anything but Christmas cheerie.  Don't let that stop you though! 

Well, how about a cute elf to bring up your spirits?  When I saw this pic, it immediately made me think of PM's story about the cute babysitter he had hired who dressed up in her elf costume for the kids.  Well, have a great weekend and Holiday too if you don't check in here next week.

Secret Santa

Hola Readers!  There's only a few days left for shopping before Christmas.  Of course my suggestion is always the same, get 'em lingerie!  Lingerie is the gift that keeps on giving!  If it's for her, it's really for you too, so why not splurge and get that REALLY nice lingerie.  You know something that she might not have bought for herself.

Speaking of Christmas, I'm sure many of you are participating in Secret Santa gift exchanges at work.  In this video, my fantasy is played out very nicely.  Not sure who this Steve guy is, but he sure is the lucky one!

Cosplay

Hola Readers!  Welcome to a new week.  Did you have a fun weekend?  As you know I like playing dress up (or down) sometimes.  You'd think the whole cosplay thing would really appeal to me, right?  Well, it does and it doesn't.  If done wrong it can be terrible.  The costume must be tailored to the person.  One person who does it right is Jessica Nigri.  Not sure if she makes her own costumes or what, but she seems to always have killer ones.  Tailored to suit her curves just perfectly and the costumes she chooses are perfecto.

Carly Rae Jepsen

Hola Readers!  Guess what?  It's Friday!!  I thought I'd send you off on a high note.  How about cutie Carly Rae Jepsen, the pop singer from Canada?  I think her eyes are so soft and pretty and I love the way she smiles.  She seems like she'd be good girlfriend material.  I like her song "Call Me Maybe" and the one she did with Owl City "Good Time", very energetic and fun to listen to.

Reveal Yourself

Greetings Readers!  How is your week progressing?  Are you having fun yet?  Why the heck not?  How about this to get you past hump day, a steamy hot video featuring Monica Cruz, (Penelope's sister)?  How about if I told you she disrobes and gets down to some super sexy lingerie?  Yeah, that sure got your attention, didn't it?  This is a promo ad for Agent Provocateur, the lingerie company.

VS Review

After carefully watching the VS fashion show, I have a few comments.  First of all, I was very pleased that this year they decided NOT to blur out the tushies of the models as they exited the runway.  I've always been perplexed by this practice; who the heck is going to complain about seeing a nicely formed butt in a pair of panties?  I could see if this were airing at seven or eight at night, but this is ten o'clock and, hello, a lingerie fashion show.  If someone tunes in to watch it, they WANT to see beautiful women in lingerie.  Anyway, just wanted to give credit to them for doing the right thing and not giving in to censorship.

Slippy over on her blog mentioned a distinct dislike of the show and I can see her points on why she didn't enjoy it.  The "lingerie" in many cases was more like costumes with lingerie as a base.  Crazy outfits with giant wings.  I can see how this is not lingerie at all and not in the classic sense in any way.  I can say that I enjoy the spectacle of the whole event though.

This year seemed to be much more music based than in the past shows.  I thought Rihanna looked amazing, but didn't enjoy the two songs she chose to perform, she has better stuff.  Of course the songs may grow on me too, we'll see.  She was super sexy in that slinky black dress with some stocking top showing, drawing you in and making you want to see more.

Bruno Mars to me was a great choice for musical performer and the songs he did were ear pleasing and very well performed.  Justin Bieber was good too, but since I'm not a fan, I wasn't really thrilled he was there.  To me it took a little something away because I associate him with a different audience.

Overall, I enjoyed the show as usual.  My favorite part was the later more traditional lingerie of course.  I know a lot of people dislike this show, but for me it's something I look forward to seeing every year.

Maria Menounos

Happy Friday Everybody!  Ready to relax and unwind?  Here's some bikini shots of beautiful Maria Menounos from TV.  I've always found her to be really attractive in both appearance and personality.  Of course I have no idea of her true personality, but she seems really fun and easy going in her outward TV personality.  Hope it's not all an act!  Either way, she sure is easy on the eyes.

Jaclyn Sweberg

Welcome Readers.  How is your week going?  Did you watch the VS Fashion Show last night?  I didn't have time yet, planning to watch this weekend.  Don't spoil the ending for me! ;^P 

It seems there's a lot of Jaclyn Sweberg fans out there, so when I came across these pics, I thought they'd be something that my readers would enjoy.  The full size pics can be had at the PB site if you subscribe, which by the looks of theses I'd say might not be such a bad investment!

Reminder

Hola Readers!  Well, Monday is here again.  Something to look forward to this week though is tomorrow night's Victoria's Secret Fashion show.  Yes, this is your last reminder to tune in Tuesday at 10 PM on CBS for the lingerie show of the year.  I'll be watching!
