Candy Blue

Ezender Readers! How was your weekend? Thought I'd start your week off right by offering up a panty review.

The panty of the day is a Candies brand royal blue and white g string. The body material is a sheer mesh with a crushed velvet polka dot pattern to it, very cute. The waistband is a scrumptious white lace which accents the panties quite well. In the front and center of the waistband they have added a bright pink bow; although many companies now do this I always think this is a nice touch and adds a little pizazz to the overall design of the garment. Another design detail that I appreciate is the back waistband being a full and wide strip rather than just a thin string. This accents the hips from the back view and adds a fullness that might not otherwise be there. It may not work on other panties, but I think that was a good choice for these which makes them a little softer in appearance and maybe a bit more cutesy than they would have been with an abbreviated rear waistband.

Overall, I'd say these panties feel well constructed. The materials used seem heavy and well made and the sewing itself is solid. That being said, they're not the softest to the touch, but they don't feel cheap in any way either. Right now, I'd guess they'd last a long time and offer up years of good use (or abuse). Of course I'll update you to any changes in that department if things change.

I bought these at Kohl's on sale for I think 5 for $20, which works out to four bucks a pop, not bad at all. I haven't seen Candies brand panties at other stores, so I don't know if they're a Kohl's exclusive or not, but if you want some of these that would be a good place to start looking.

Have a great week yall!

Summer Cleaning

Kitaitirivi Readers! Ah, the weekend is here again! Do you have a weekend chore that you've been meaning to get around to? Recently, I finally was able to get into my panty drawers (yes, I have two) and hand laundered my entire collection. It was a multi-day undertaking, let me tell you. What really took a lot of time was the drying process, as I have limited space to hang dry my delicates and so I could only wash a few at a time. All in all, I think it took the better part of a week! I also folded all my undies as best I could (some of my thongs are so "minimalist" shall we say, that there isn't much to fold or any good way to do it. So now I have nice, neat and organized lingerie drawers.

The problem is that now I don't want to go and mess it all up after all that work and I have so many panties that it's hard to find a particular one amongst the stacks. Before the panties were just a big mess, mixed up and unfolded, but I could dive right in and look around and not worry that I was making it worse. What's a lingerie fanatic to do?

Oh, I also perfumed my panties with a VS body spray after washing. I highly recommend doing this as the scent adds another layer of sexiness. I associate the body spray smell with panties now and it can be quite intoxicating to open my drawer and take in the faint, soft and feminine scent. One bottle of spray goes a long way, so you don't need much either, although obviously your mileage may vary depending on how much you use.

X Tina

Gowwa Readers! Hump day, oh boy. Just read that sexy lil Christina Aguilera is going to starring in a new film titled "Burlesque". Also in the film will be cute Kristen Bell and diva Cher. I know a lot of people don't care for X-tina, but I think she's got a fantastic voice and seems to be open minded. I don't always agree with her fashion choices (including hair), but I admire her daring and willingness to try different things, my kind of girl! I have no idea what the story line is, but hope the movie turns out to be a good one. Just the thought of seeing Kristen Bell and Christina in some lingerie is enough to spur me on to the theater!

Bikini Fun

Xmandyu Readers! How is your week shaping up? Not sure if any of you read the funnies (what's a newspaper again?), but one serial caught my attention recently. It's Luann where one male character decided to try on a bikini for the ladies. Of course I had to tell you all about it! You may need to click on each strip to see the whole thing.

Mischief

Howdy Readers! A movie named "Mischief" was recently brought to my attention by long time reader Panty Maven. It's a film made in the 80's about teens in the 1950's. I'd never heard of it before being tipped off, so it was a nice surprise to find out about it. PM mentioned that it had some nice lingerie scenes in it. Well, that alone is enough to make me want to see it!

My first order of business was to actually find it on DVD. I looked at Amazon and they had it listed as out of print, but they did have it at my favorite on line rental site, but it was seriously back ordered (long wait). I didn't hold my breath! A lot of times movies that are on the long wait list never come and end up being deleted from the catalog before you ever get a chance to rent them. Either that or when they come, the disc itself is severely beaten up and scratched.

Well, after having waited a couple of months, I was surprised to find an e mail informing me that the movie was coming soon to my mail box! When it got here, I took it out immediately to check the condition of the disc, and it looked OK. I watched it within a few days of getting it and was thrilled to see lovely Kelly Preston strip down to her pretty bra and panties, then to full frontal nudity...YAY! Her body is just amazing in this film, truly mouth wateringly beautiful. There is a scene early on when one of the main characters gets a peek up her skirt as well, a heart stopping sight indeed to see her stocking tops and white panties!

Do I need to say more? Yes, I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend it to not just vintage lingerie and panty lovers, but also to anyone who might want to watch a fun little underdog, coming of age, 50's themed movie.

Mad for Panties

Bonjour Readers! Just a quick post today to kick off your weekend. Late last night I was watching Jimmy Fallon (I'm a night owl) and he had Christina Hendricks of Mad Men fame on as a guest. I must say she is looking quite buxom now days as I don't remember her having such curvy assets when she was playing the part of Saffron back on Firefly years back (great show BTW). Anyway, she was talking about her early career and how she used to model in NYC. She said the modeling agency used to rent apartments and just throw girls in there together, so they didn't really know each other all that well if at all at times. She said that models can be crazy and then went on to tell about how there was one girl who used to do crazy stuff. Jimmy pressed her on that and she said the crazy girl used to steal the other girls panties! Wow, did that catch my attention! LOL, Who is this girl and where can I meet her!

I'll leave you all with that thought of a pretty female model stealing other pretty female model's panties and doing who knows what with them! Have a great weekend everyone!

The Other Half

Greetings Readers! How is everyone doing this fine day? As discussed in a prior post, I bought two items that were on sale at Frederick's of Hollywood at the low low price of two for $25. The first item was that white, ruffled back, satin garter panty. The second half of my 25 bucks got me this cute little chiffon layered mini skirt.

This gem is really cute with lots of nice detailing throughout. Starting at the bottom (usually not a bad place to start!), you can see the lace trim that goes around each tier of the skirt. Next the material itself, which is a soft and sheer nylon chiffon with thin vertical pin stripes. The color is "Buttercup" in case you were wondering, I'd describe it as a pale yellow that the picture accurately shows. The waistband has that wonderful lacey detailing, so pretty and not at all scratchy in any way. The inside is lined with a smooth quilted patterned extra layer that makes it harder to see through (you decide if that's a good or bad thing). The back of the skirt is slightly longer than the front which makes front access to the fun factory a little easier, spread those legs! ;^P

I actually snagged the last one on the rack, so you may or may not find this at your local store. The one I went to was a smaller store and the sales girl told me that I may have better luck at the bigger store if I wanted to find other things and more selection. All in all, I'm very happy with this purchase. I love to wear this around the house, with or without panties underneath. It's an interesting sensation to wear with no panties as the cool air goes up the skirt. Anyways, it's good for some fun for sure.

Nine

I watched the movie "Nine" a while back and thought I'd chime in on it. I know that this movie may be old news to many of you, but as I recall it wasn't in theaters long and now that it's out on DVD and Blu Ray I thought it a good time to throw in my two cents.

The movie is a musical, made my the same people who brought "Chicago" to you on the big screen. The production values are great, the cinematography is amazing, the music and dancing are wonderful. Can you tell I liked it? The women are stunningly gorgeous and a joy to watch. I rented the DVD, but would definitely be interested in seeing this on Blu Ray for the added clarity.

The movie has a never ending collection of beauties to ogle including Penelope Cruz, Nicole Kidman, Fergie, Marion Cotillard, Kate Hudson and even Sophia Loren pops in for a scene or two. This is enough to tip the scales in favor of a thumbs up from me, although I can't say that I truly loved the movie, I did enjoy watching it and would readily watch it again. I say give it a look, if you like beautiful women in lingerie, you will find lots to enjoy.

Sale!

Hello Readers! How is your week going so far? I found a sale you all might be interested in over at Maidenform's own web site. They have a few nice things that I'd like to try, although after my recent binge, I shouldn't and won't be buying anything for a while. Pictured above are a few of the things I found in the sale section. I own a few Maidenform items that I like a lot, although I also own some older things that the elastic has gone out on and had to be retired. The elastic thing may have been my fault as I seem to recall tumble drying them on low heat in a machine, which may have been bad for them. It was a real tragedy because they don't make those panties anymore and I really liked them a lot. I'll try and get a picture of them posted sometime so you can see what they looked like. I had three pair, one each in white, black and pink.

Rebound

Hola Readers! It's been a while, no? I hope all of you have been doing well. I decided to remove my last post because, even though it explained a lot, it also wasn't really fitting in the theme of this blog. Thank you all who wrote and sent support, it was sorely needed and I appreciate it greatly. I'll be trying to get back into the swing of things around here again, so please come by and look for some upcoming panty reviews and such.

Well, after having not had much libido the past few weeks, it seems to have rebounded very strongly, explosively in fact. In fact I went on a lingerie buying spree/binge, the results of which you'll be seeing in the next few postings.

I took a day off, and went shopping early. I hit Frederick's of Hollywood, Victoria's Secret, Forever 21, Sears, JC Penny, Kohl's and Target. Even in my extreme horniness, I tried to choose things that were totally new to my collection and not redundant. I bought a few things at Frederick's, JCP and Kohl's and would have bought a few at Forever 21, but they were out of the ones I liked. I've got to tell you, Forever 21 really has some cute things, clothes and lingerie. If you're looking for some cute tops or skirts, give them a look.

JCP had a sale on my favorite grannies, the Vanity Fair Perfectly Yours briefs, 3 for $11 something. That's the lowest price I've seen for those, so I couldn't resist and picked up a few (breaking my redundancy rule). I wanted to get different colors, but they were mostly sold out in my size, so I was forced to get an extra white one, which is OK, because that's my favorite color in these anyway.

Pictured above is a ruffled back, skirted, satin and lace garter panty I bought at Frederick's. It was on sale for $12.50 (actually 2 for 25) and well worth the price in my opinion. I'll show you what the other half of my $25 got me in a future post. I think these are super cute and ultra feminine and they feel great when wearing them. They were a bit hard to photograph, but you can make out the flower pattern in the skirt material. The garter straps are removable, which is great for washing or if you want to wear them as panties without stockings. There are little white satin bows at both the front and rear centers of the waistband, something I always like to see. The front of the panty is a chiffon like material and the back is ruffled in a full cut that accentuates the derriere nicely.

As these are a sale item, I suggest you get on down to Frederick's ASAP if you want a pair (or two) of these. Just to note, they are a bright white color, almost silver, they're so bright, very pretty, the back shot is a better representation of the actual color. Also, they come from the bridal collection, so you might want to look there if you don't see it elsewhere in the store.

New Links Added

Fasapshi Readers! I'm always on the lookout for new blogs and websites that titillate my erotic nature. Often times I find them from links on other people's blogs or people write me and make suggestions. Lots of times I find some real winners out there, and today I'm adding a few to the list over there to the right. So please do check out the following:

The Stockings Lady Blog. This blog features daily posts from a sexy Scottish woman out of Glasgow who is kind enough to share video clips of what stockings and lingerie she has chosen to wear on any given day. She enjoys wearing garter belts with her stockings and I enjoy looking at her in them! A voyeur's delight, stocking lovers do have a look.


Next we have Granny P, the Mature Burlesque Artist. Don't let the name fool you, Granny is one hot and sexy lady who has a wonderfully playful nature and features some terrific lingerie for her fans (of which includes me) to ogle. If you don't believe me, just look at the pic for this post, that's her! She also has a YouTube page where she posts her cute little burlesque videos.


Next up is Tracy's Blog. Tracy is a man who's all woman. She likes to dress in pretty women's things and has been taking hormones and using a breast pump. She was kind enough to share in great detail some of the things she is going through both physically and mentally as she has been taking these hormones. It's quite fascinating reading her thoughts.


Lingerie Diva is a blog and store. They feature lingerie news and picture updates of pretty women in lingerie, some of which you can purchase (the clothes, not the women). There are regular discounts listed too, so be sure to check it out if you're in the mood for some lingerie shopping.


Full Brief Blog is a fairly new one. So far the blog has featured movie references where a lingerie lover may find some panty shots on film. It's just starting out, but I've found the site to be very interesting and informative so far. Give him a helping hand and take a look.

Super Soaker

Chikmaa Readers! How have you all been? I've missed you. I'm sure you've all been following the story of that oil leak down in the Gulf of Mexico, horrible stuff. So you're probably wondering what can be done and if there's a way we can help out. Well, it turns out there is a way for us to lend a helping hand. It seems that the crafty people at Matter of Trust have devised a device made of pantyhose, of all things, that can help capture and soak up some of the oil. Of course you wouldn't want to use those really expensive stockings you have, but if you have some old cheapo ones laying around or about to go in the garbage, why not send them out and help the cause? Here's a link to the You Tube video explaining how to make your own hair boom.

Madame Frou Frou

Tungjatjeta Readers! Today I'm featuring some incredible pictures that I pilfered from Madame Frou Frou's Blog. The lingerie is from a company called Toad Lillie. If you like those pics there are more on Madame FF's blog to look at. Madame Frou Frou runs a lingerie boutique in the LA area, which is on my to do list next time I'm down there. I've added her to my links on the side, do check out her blog and tell her the Badside sent ya!

Eros

E Ku Ale Readers! I was browsing over at Amazon recently and came across the above pictured book. Of course that cover shot caught my eye and reminded me of many of Panty Maven's posts. The publisher Taschen seems to specialize in erotic literature and photography books. I own some of their other works which are of good quality, although one book did have pages that were stuck together where the ink hadn't fully dried. It doesn't look good when your guests are thumbing through your erotic coffee table book and some of the pages seem to have been stuck together at some point! ;^P Awful isn't it, but the book came in shrink wrap plastic, so I'm quite certain it was new when I received it.

I do find it interesting that they chose an image of panties on a clothes line to capture the essence of a book filled with erotic pictures. That's really saying a lot when you think about it. Panties must have a very powerful meaning to the erotic centers of our brains. Perhaps it's like in real life, when a couple comes together and the panties are like a fine wrapping paper separating a wonderful gift from your eyes and hands. I suppose in that light, panties would make perfect sense as a cover shot for this book.

Rabecca's Secret

Mija Readers! I'm afraid I have a bit of bad news for you today. In the past I have written about Rabecca's Secret and Panty Belles, two sites run by the same couple which featured mainly pictures of the wife, Rabecca. As you can see from the pictures above, she is a stunningly gorgeous blond who modeled various full cut satin and nylon panties.

Rabecca's Secret has been gone for a while, and I had assumed that Panty Belles would continue on in it's place, but sadly it too has disappeared from the web. I'm not sure if they ever signed off or if it just disappeared one day. I hope they're both doing fine and that the lovely Rabecca will continue thrilling us with her pictures in the future.

Monday Panty Review

Buokaye Readers! How was your weekend? Did you get nice and relaxed? I thought a panty review would be a great way to kick off the week!

Featured above is yet another of my newer VS panties. These lovelies come from the Intimissimi line. The material used on these is very nice; smooth and soft with a beautiful shimmer to it. The feeling against the flesh is exquisite. The cut is semi low rise, yet full in back, almost a tap or boy short in style. I've put on a few pounds recently, but they still seem just a tad snug for their size in my opinion.

A seam runs up the center of the back panel, very nice design element which accentuates that area well. Matching colored lace runs from the outer hips down around the leg openings. Where the lace meets the waistband at either side, the two sides join as it follows the edges of the front and back panels forming a little lace flap overlap at either hip and giving them a more sheer and light appearance.

The waistband is gathered and has a nice rippled pattern to it and is pinch sewn at it's base in such a way as it creates a very cute crease and distinct separation between waistband and body sections. Lastly, there is the signature VS bow at the front of the waistband accented nicely with a tiny sparkly crystal making the whole piece so irresistibly feminine and cute. To my eye they have a Victorian or old fashioned look to them that I find pleasing. I apologize for the wrinkliness of the panties in the pics, but I basically just pulled these out of my drawer and took pics of them, no time for ironing.

One last thing to note is that coming from the Intimissimi line of lingerie, they have the long info tags inside which stick out during wear if one is not careful. Most likely they're meant to be trimmed or removed all together, but I like to keep the tags on mine, so it can be a problem when walking about in public. I have a few panties from this line and they all seem to share that trait with each other. Not a big deal, but I thought it worth mentioning. Oh, and also of note, the crystal can occasionally get caught up on the inside of your pants if there is anything there to grab. This happened to me a couple of times when it got entangled with a loose string on the waistband of my cotton pants. Not the panty's fault at all mind you, but again something I thought you might want to know.

All in all, I really love these panties from both design and comfort aspects. As far as I know they should still be in stores near you, although they have been around a little while, so you might want to get down there fast if you want them.

Hey Buddy...The Bird's Up There!

Nangga Readers! As some of you already know, I like erotica both new and old. I have a few old magazines that date back as far as the 70's. Some even have black and white pictures in them, something I doubt you'd see nowdays. Anyway, it's really interesting to look at those old magazines and see what the norm was back in those days. They're kind of a documentation of the sexuality of their time period. You see women (and men) with full on pubic hair, that's one of the main things that's changed a lot. The pics are more explicit now I think, although I wouldn't say that much more so that it's shocking in any way. Also, the hair styles and clothes are something that stand out as well, then again, lots of that is coming back too. If there are any panties, it's never a thong, mostly you see nylon grannies or bikini style. I just love the way they look, hugging and framing those feminine curves so beautifully.

I was cruising the web the other day and came across the above pictured magazine for sale. I think the ad said it dates from the late 50's. I can't help but wonder what the pics are like inside. That cover is hilarious to me. Wouldn't you just love to have this for your coffee table or to frame for the guest bathroom or something? What really kind of shocked me was the fact that Swank magazine had been around so long.

Funny Undies

Demat Readers! How are you all doing? I've been a fan of Fox's animated shows for some time now, probably because they seem to hold no person or thing sacred. Family Guy is especially devious and twisted. Yes, they do push the envelope on decency and good taste, but being a deviant person myself, I just love it.

Another favorite of mine is American Dad, which follows an uptight suburban character and his family through various comical adventures. Hmm, could I have made it sound less funny! LOL! Anyway, if you've never seen it I encourage you to tune in and watch, very funny stuff. The wife of the main character (Stan Smith) is named Francine; that's her pictured above. I'll admit to having a little cartoon crush on her, she's such a cutie! ;^)

As I've stated in the past, I think someone over at Fox has a thing for panties because this past weekend's episode featured a little Francine panty flash. It happened so quickly that I barely caught it, but luckily I did, as I was able to go back with the slo mo and verify what I'd thought I'd seen. They even included a little camel toe! How can you not like that! Anyway, if on the off chance that one of my readers is the guy who orchestrated that or had any hand in it, I congratulate you on a job well done, keep up the good work!

PS: Sorry for the crummy pic.

Album Art

Leh Readers! Did you get your taxes done yet? Still got one more day. Maybe you need some music to listen to while crunching those numbers. I was browsing some music online recently when the cover art that you see above caught my eye for obvious reasons. That's classic rock band Roxy Music's "Country Life" album if you didn't already know. I listened to the samples, but it wasn't really for me, although I'd dang near buy it just for that cover! Somehow I doubt today's artists are daring enough to feature such a bold cover, too controversial. Let that thought soak in. Props to the band for selecting such an image to represent their work. The bra and panties are exquisite, so sheer and lacy you can clearly see what's underneath, love it!

Me-ow....purr...purr!

Aupa Readers! How are you this fine Friday? Ready for some weekend fun? I know I am, but let's see if the weather will agree. I finally got around to resnapping some of those panty pics I mentioned previously. Pictured today is the first fruits of that labor.

What you are seeing is a garter panty from VS. I absolutely love the way these look, but the material is slightly hard or stiff and not quite as smooth as I'd expected. It's not coarse in any way, just not as satiny and smooth as I thought it would be. Also, the animal print is very cute but is of a lower quality than I've become accustomed to from VS. It's hard to describe, but I think when you find a really good print, it's often hard to distinguish that the pattern is a print at all when viewed up close. With this it seems kind of obvious, although this may have been intentional, I don't know. It's not bad at all, just not what I was expecting given some of the other animal print things I own from VS. Come to think of it, it may actually be the pattern itself that causes this effect, I don't know, it's still cute, just could have been executed slightly better.

On to build quality next, which to my eye and hand seems very good. The panties are cut very low on the waist, can you say LOW rider? Depending on your backside this may give a spectacular view to your audience. The garter straps are well constructed having nice metal clips and are removable, a feature I like when executed correctly as they are here. Sometimes removable garter straps have loops that are too loose and the straps can come off unintentionally, but in this case they hang on nice and tight.

Lastly, let's focus on some of those lovely details I've come to look forward to from VS. I like the lacy sections which are very soft, the floral edging around the waist and leg opening and the ruched back panel. Next, we have the cute little bejeweled waistband bow. I really like that as it just makes the whole thing pop, it's just an extra little something that makes these even cuter. And on top of that they even put a cluster of stick on amber colored rhinestones spelling out VS on the front left lower hip area, SO cute.

I bought these babies on sale so there's a good chance you won't find them if you go looking, sorry. The panties themselves seem to run a bit small in sizing, so keep that in mind if and when you buy yours. I do recommend them if you happen to find them, I doubt you'll be disappointed!
