Fashion File: Bodystockings

Filed in fashion 6 Comments

I had to share this gorgeous image I stumbled upon of Amanda Seyfried from the October 2009 issue of GQ Magazine.    She is uber sexy and totally sophisticated in a black lace bodystocking.

I believe that every girl should own a bodystocking.  Not only are they affordable, they are super hot and hug your curves while hiding those bothersome areas you may not want exposed ;) Shapewear for the bedroom? Who knew!

The other fabu thing about bodystockings?  They are totally versatile.  Layer one under your clothing – pair with a mini skirt or wear as a camisole under a blousy top.  The possibilities are endless!

To steal Amanda’s look, try a Rose Lace Bodystocking in black.

Hello All You Divas!!!!!

I hope everyone had a great holiday, and are ready for an exciting New Year.

Speaking of exciting, I was speaking with our favorite customer today.  Hey Misti!!! Just to let you know, Misti is a true Diva, and will rock anything she is wearing. But I digress.

So, we were talking, about lingerie and corsets, as usual, and she says, “Hey Cathy, did you know Mariah Carey was on the Ellen Degeneres show wearing your dress?” Of course I said, “What dress?”  She said, ‘The Ruffle Garter Dress that you carry at Hips and Curves!”

After our conversation, I went running through the office screaming “Mariah Carey was wearing our dress!!!” Lo and behold, she was right!  Although we can’t be totally sure it’s our dress, it sure does look like it!

Leave it to our girl Misti to bring us up to the minute info on everything fabulous. Thanks Misti! You’re the best!!

For all you other Divas, please let us know if you see someone fabulous wear our items. Or, if you have a great idea about a corset, skirt, or dress, let us know. We love hearing from you.

All My Love, and Luck for 2010!!

Wide lace band thigh high stockings were seen all over the Spring 2010 runways.   Louis Vuitton paired the sexy stockings with sweet plaid school girl skirts and Designer Sonia Rykiel with stripes, flirty floral dresses and stiletto heels.

Get the look for less with our extra wide lace band stockings in sizes 1/2x – 5/6x.  A steal at just $15.95!

Going Green…or Black!

Filed in Products 3 Comments

You know everyone is going green these days.

Driving hybrids, or taking the bus. Recycling everything they can, or reusing what they can. Everyone is trying to do their part.

Well, I am too. I have several reusable shopping bags that I try to use whenever I shop. But recently, I haven’t been using them. To be honest, I find them boring, and not very cute. You never know who you could meet at the grocery store, right? :)

So, lately, I have been using our absolutely fabulous, Hips and Curves Signature Tote Bag. I love this bag! And I’m not saying this because my boss is behind me ;) This is a great tote for everything.

I’ve used it for my laundry, for a quick trip to a friend’s house, and yes, to the grocery store. I was at my favorite store, Trader Joe’s, minding my own business, picking out my favorite snacks. As I was turning to go into another aisle, this lovely woman walked right up to me and said, ‘That is the cutest bag.’ I replied, ‘Thank you so much’ I walked away with a little spring in my step, saying thank goodness I forgot the ugly bags at home. I don’t know if that woman checked out our site, or ordered one of our totes. I hope that she did!

So ladies, I’m not saying you have to buy our bag, but maybe consider it. Everyone needs some cute in their normal routine.

Hey Everyone!

It’s your ever-faithful Customer Service Diva here to share an inspiring experience with you. (And don’t worry – I checked my soapbox at the door.)

I have to say I love it when I hear from our boys and girls serving our country overseas. So here’s my personal call out to them all: I truly appreciate everything you are doing for me, my family and friends and our country. Because of you, I can live the life I have!

To all you boys overseas, I think it’s so sweet that you are thinking of your girls at home, and sending them things for special occasions or preparing them for your homecoming.

I also love hearing from all of you wives and girlfriends. Sharing the excitement in your calls and emails, because you know your guys will be coming home soon and you’ll be surprising them with something sexy, just makes my day. (Plus knowing that I helped you makes it even better.) Continue Reading
