SOL's Right On TARGET

Your favorite panty store is right on trend, my friends! We’re not the only ones doing fabulous recycled bags from billboards.

Check out this link to read more about how Target is turning their Times Square billboards into re-usable bags. They may have Anna Sui designing theirs, but we’ll one up them…no, we’ll two-up them…ours feature bits of your favorite SOL girl, and are even more green because they are made of eco-flexx (an already recycled material) as opposed to vinyl!

SOL's latest round of limited edition bags will be available in time for the holidays, once the current billboards come down.

Granny's Panties- How It All Began

Me and my sisters

As my 41st birthday quickly approaches, I reflect upon my love affair with lingerie. People often ask me where my passion from panties comes from, and here it is:

I am the 2nd youngest of 4 sisters, and all of us would get panties from granny each year for Christmas. Every year, I would unwrap my Carter’s panties to find bumble bee prints, while my sister Julie received romantic, feminine little flowers on hers. My panties were big enough, that if I attached a string around my neck, it would make a one piece swimming suit. Julie’s panties were petite bikinis. When I asked my granny why I couldn’t have the petite bikinis, she said, “Sweetie, you have a big bottom. You need more coverage”. After this moment, I vowed that when I could finally buy my own panties, I would buy pretty ones.

Fast forward to around 15 or 16. For all of you local Denver folk, you will know the store Fashion Bar…Well, I walked into the Fashion Bar and saw a rounder of not just beautiful bras, but matching panties, and I swear I heard angels sing! The sales lady approached me and informed me that I would not fit into any of these bras. I just grinned and said, “Watch me make em’ work”. And I did!

From that day forward, I was hooked. I love my matching sets most of all, not to mention a pretty garter belt here and there. Do I feel that they have kept me young at heart? Absolutely. And as I turn 41, I will be wearing a show stopping electric blue Agent Provocateur set to celebrate my special day…Thanks granny!

Purple Reign!

While our lingerie may be limited to the bedroom or hide out under our clothes most of the time, it is still great to know that whatever we are wearing underneath is trendy, modern and stylish.

Purple is everywhere this season, so try matching your purple bra to your outfit. Lingerie inspired pieces have been taking over the runways this season, and could be a major accessory to compliment your outerwear. Try something subtle… have a cami peek out from under your jacket and let your lingerie out to play!
