So, I found this FANTASTIC shop on upper Haight that specializes in vintage lingerie and retro inspired lingerie, and finally had the funds to stock up on some proper undergarments for all my vintage dresses!
I got an amazing girdle, bustier, vintage crinoline, and a vintage Merry Widow; all of which look beautiful! What a difference having the proper undergarments on underneath older dresses; it totally holds your posture differently and makes you curvy in all the right places. If you have any vintage dresses, I cannot stress how much of an improvement it makes! : D
Check out the rest of their beautiful wares here!:

We See Pretty Underpants...

If the Givenchy Couture Fall 2011 fashion show is any indication of what the future of fashion holds (fyi it IS), then it's good news for those of us who love the lingerie as outerwear look! We thought the whole high-waisted panty layered until a sheer skirt/dress was possibly on its way out, but not so fast! It looks like we have another season of this lingerie-friendly look, which typically features a high-waist panty (we suppose it would look disastrous with a thong!). It's been a few years since we first spotted this style on the runway, and it warms our hearts to see it once more. It's also good because we will be buying for Faire Frou Frou Spring 2012 in just a couple of weeks, and it gives us an idea of what you lovely ladies (& gents) will be wanting!
