Which came first?

I’ve been thinking about something that reminds me of the age old question; which came first, the chicken or the egg?

Here’s the modern day question: Do you feel sexy because you wear lingerie? Or do you wear lingerie because you feel sexy? I still haven’t figured it out, but researching it sure is fun!

Unfortunately, in our society women are taught to focus on their flaws instead of their natural beauty. The more I embrace and celebrate my curves, the more confident I feel. All I know is, each time I play dress-up with a flirty petticoat or I lace myself up in that ever-so-hot Valentina underbust corset, I feel a little bit sexier! What’s your favorite dress-up outfit or sexy ensemble that makes you feel amazing?

Corsets On The Brain

Filed in Behind the scenes | Corporate Culture | Products 9 Comments

We are always busy at Hips and Curves and today was no exception. I love so many things about working at Hips and Curves but what I really like is that we are always thinking outside of the box.

I received an email about a week ago requesting my presence at a brainstorming meeting. The email asked me to bring any and all ideas, no matter how big or small, to our holiday corset design meeting. I went on line and researched my wish list of vintage corset ideas, my dreams of an hourglass figure and the added plus of great posture were in my sights. Am I the only girl that loves the “Marilyn” figure?

Today was the day. With my wish list in hand I kicked my shoes off, grabbed a seat on one of our many comfy couches along with everyone else and the fun began. Everyone brought their “A” game, big, small, extravagant, wild and sexy; all ideas were welcome in this brainstorming event! Marcy was writing down feverishly as one idea topped the next. Pizza was delivered and the ideas kept coming for an amazing few hours.

That was fun – I am so excited to see the final list. I really do hope a couple ideas from my wish list make the cut. Stay tuned to see which beautiful new corsets made the coveted list!

By the way, did you all order the Contessa? I am waiting for mine, oh and the Cinderella petticoat!
