Lingerie Francaise - Valentine's Day Sale!

[TtownAnne]

Looking for some dainty unmentionables for le jour d'amour? They arrived this weekend for immediate sale! I specialize in vintage nightwear, but certainly have the latest of whatever a modern lady might require (pictures upon request for those interested, don't want to cause trouble with the pornography police!).

We have vintage lace

Silk caftan-style peignoir, c.1923

There is a good reason why generations of fashion-savvy women covet handmade lingerie from the early 20th century. It is not only exquisitely beautiful but also has a well deserved reputation for working "bedroom magic" on the wearer's partner.

This caftan-style peignoir appears to float over the body. The open sides, which form graceful faux sleeves, reveal the silk under slip. The alluring pink hue and simple but ingenious construction create an irresistible feminine appeal!

The peignoir is fashioned from pink silk georgette that is trimmed with wide borders of gold colored silk lace. It is attached at the neckline to the pink silk underslip. The peignoir slips on over the head with no closures.

Silk robes

Paisley morning wrapper, c.1890. The color is still clear and bright. The skirt flairs dramatically, forming a small train in back. An ever stylish period piece.

Hand-embroidered silk taffeta dressing gown, c.1872. A perfect example of boudoir attire that retains elements of street dress. The Chinese hand embroidery is magnificent beyond compare.

Wedding night attire

Hand-embroidered batiste peignoir with lace inserts and ribbon trim, c.1900.

Our sale will run through Valentine's Day at 8pm, just in time for appropriately "thanking" your special Valentine. :cupid:

[Nichole]

I'd love a chemise in cranberry silk, please. :)

[Shanna]

Those are gorgeous, madame shopkeeper!

[TtownAnne]

Nichole, I will have that for you by the end of the day. If you care to stop by and pick it up, find me just down the street

Otherwise I can have it delivered to you. I will post a picture shortly for your approval, of course.

[Nichole]

Sounds good! :aok:

[AmyLynn]

I *must* have that silk caftan! Gorgeous!!!

[tuesdayswife]

Ooo la la!!!!!

[Jayne]

Oh how beautiful....what to choose what to choose

[gulp!]

DH's birthday is tomorrow night, and I'd like to get something nice. Do you have anything push-up? Way, way up? :scan:

[Darcy]

Ooh, I was hoping there'd be a store like this. Mind if I have a look around?

[Colleen]

Everything is so beautiful! Will you be getting more inventory in?

[Shanna]

Do you do special orders?

[sheila]

nice widow!

[sheila]

I just have to say that I love it when all the stores open up! It is such a happy feeling!

[TtownAnne]

Nichole, a few choices for you. It's all about your preferences.

Lace? Satin? Ruffley? (available in cranberry, I just don't have a picture)

Stef, for pushup anything do you prefer underwire or just padding?

Amy, caftan is yours. Delivery or pick-up?

Colleen, more inventory is coming. And as always, I can special order anything you might want, you just have to tell me basic details (long, short, satin, lace, etc.)

[Nichole]

Ooh, pretty! I like the first two, but I think I'll go with the second one because it's slippery. :awink:

[TtownAnne]

Slippery is always good - it's not fun for him to have to struggle to get it off you. :brow:

[gulp!]

Nice choice, Nichole.

For me, underwire please. And red. :brow:

[Karri]

Do you carry crotchless underwear, by any chance :shuffle:

[Darcy]

I'd like one of the first ones you posted for Nichole. That'll come in handy. :brow:

[Kristen]

Will you be listing any other items?

[Sandy]

I need to replenish my supply, so many of my most loved pieces are showing signs of :airquote: wear and tear. :airquote: Specifically, I am looking for some teddies, garter/undies combinations, as well as some boustiers. What do you have to offer in those styles?

[schwanda]

I'm looking for something a bit more risque. Something that will appeal to a younger man?

Amanda

[Kimberly]

Do you happen to carry plus sizes?

[stass]

Perty stuff!

[TtownAnne]

I'll be back later to discuss the special requests, but I wanted to just give a gentle reminder that due to Mayor Sheila's Anti-Internet Porn Laws, what I can post pictures of is limited. Some of the more....."special" things, shall we say, will have to be discussed in a private consultation at the store. But otherwise I will definitely post as many lovely *appropriate* things as I can find.

[TtownAnne]

Stef, pick your push-up. And yes, they come with the matching bottoms, of course.

Darcy, the lace will be delivered to you this afternoon.

Karri, crotchless in all materials. Let me know what colors you want! (you don't want to know the pictures I found...)

Sandy,

Heart embroidery for Valentine's Day!

Amanda, that will require a private consultation in store. You don't want to know the pictures I found!

Kimberly, plus sizes most certainly. And none of that "pirate hooker" stuff like you would find at Fredericks of Hollywood. :nono:

[MamaGoofy]

I need to pick up something sexy for my Valentine tomorow. Something lacy in white and babydoll style please.

Is this still available? If so, I'll take it. You deliver I presume?

[gulp!]

ooh, thanks Anne! The first one looks like it will fit the bill. :nod: And, can you throw in the white one you picked for Sandy? That's pretty! Put it on my tab. :awink:

[LISA]

Do you have anything in leather?

[Lora]

I love that vintage beige silk gown. Do you have it available in stock? My Valentine would love it on me!

Lora

[Kate]

I just have to have the beige silk nightgown. That will be perfect for Valentine's Night...

[Kimberly]

I will take the pink vintage nightie wrapped please. My delivery boy will be by to pick it up in the morning.

[Sandy]

Ah yes, those will do perfectly! Merci!

I often have wished to try other professions - would you happen to have anything in stock simulating a nurses outfit? What about a french maid?

[Karri]

ooooh! I'll take this!

Bridget, I did think of you for that dressing gown - very regal without flashy, kwim? I will wrap it for delivery tomorrow!

Stef, white and red all wrapped for you for delivery tomorrow! Pushed up to your loved one's heart's content, I hope. :brow:

Lisa, I found an amazing blue leather bustier that I think would be fabulous with your dark hair, but the picture was a bit..."overexposed" shall we say, so I will need you to stop by the store to check it out.

Lora and Kate, so glad I managed to find multiples of that gown! They will be ready for both of you tomorrow.

Kimberly, I think that pink nightie is you. :nod: Shall be ready by 8am.

Sandy, I like these for the French maid idea - risque without complete slutty, non? Will need cuter shoes, of course; none of these Amish orthopedics.

As to the nurse,

I rather like the flirty skirt of the first one.

Karri, I did think of you for that lavender slip, so I'm glad you liked it.

A special note to all customers, in honor of the greatest day, the day to celebrate love and romance, I will include a FREE bottle of Karri's finest champagne with all deliveries (deviliries? :brow: ) to help everyone celebrate!

[Jean Luc]

Bon jour, I seek something for Madame Stass. please deliver to her something in rouge for tomorrow. Merci.

[TtownAnne]

Jean Luc! [/curtsey] I will find the best I have for Madame. Delivery by noon acceptable?

[Sandy]

This is more my style
http://67.59.157.16/images/spirit/products/processed/00773945.detail.a.jpg
Ill take it! The nurses outfits you have are too obvious!!! Anything a little more provocative w/out - as you say - slutty?

[Kimberly]

Thank you for the beautiful nightie! It will be put to use tonight! :brow:

[LISA]

I'll come by the shop again tomorrow Anne, I overindulged on chocolate today I'm feeling too fat for leather :)

[Bridget]

Anne I got the dressing gown! Sending it wrapped up with the roses was such a nice touch. Thank you! If you see anything else I might like, please give me a call!
