For a limited time Silk Storm has taken up to 60% off most of their lingerie in stock,  including the beautiful Barbara Eden Bra (was £48) now £20.  In fact the only ranges (it seems) not on sale are Argentovivo Swim, Cotton Club and select Made by Niki Couture.  The best way to shop this sale is to run your cursor over the gallery photo to see the designer, if it’s not one of the ones mentioned, it’s probably on sale.  Size selection is extremely limited.

Kiki de Montparnasse Summer Sale

Kiki de Montparnasse had added new styles to her exclusive Summer Sale.   Now you can save up to 50% off luxurious looks from this season, including the richly elegant Empress range, as well as her saucy signature pieces from seasons past.

Agent Provocateur Sale -75% off

Now save up to 750% off titillating lingerie and swimwear from ranges including Jilly, Dascha and more during Agent Provocateur Gamblers Sale.  What’s a gambler sale?  AP lingerie will continue to be marked down until it’s all sold out.  The gamble is getting the the pieces you want at the best price.  Last week everything was 60% off, now it’s up to 75% off, but a lot of pieces have sold out.  So the decision is yours, buy it now or wait for a better price and risk losing out.

Cazar’s Big Summer Sale

In order to make room for the new Winter 2009 collections Cazar is holding their Big Summer Sale where you’ll find over 1000 pieces from top designers at between 30-70% off.  Their new search engine has improved greatly, now you can stack your search by, designer, size, color, style, fabric and discount.  This is a German site but  they do have the option of seeing everything in English.

Katie’s Summer Bargains

As some of the regular readers may know I love a good sale and we’ve had a number of very good ones lately.  For me a great sale includes a fantastic discount on a fabulous product: you simply cannot have one without the other and still call it a great deal! 

On June 10 & 13th I told you about the SheandMe Sale (50% off already discounted lingerie) and Melissa Odabash, Rescue Beauty Lounge bath & body and Amrita Singh bangles (-up to 80% off).  I bought the M.O. zebra pareo(was $108/paid $26), S&M Must-Have chemise (was $120/paid $28) & the sexy back boyshort (was $45/paid $6), RBL hand cream (was $20/paid $5) & exfoliating body wash (was $48/paid $12) and Amrita Singh bangles (was $100/paid $16).  My summer wardrobe  was a good start for my poolside jaunts and these humid mid-western evenings.

She and Me Must Have Chemise

She and me’s  Must-Have Chemise really is a must have – I wanted to wear it all day long! As well as loving the flattering cut and comfort, I just love the sheer prettiness of this chemise.  The knickers are really cute: they are really stretchy and are large made so you’ll definitely want to order a size smaller than usual – which could count as an extra bonus for some!

The She & Me Must Have Chemise gets a Grade A from me!

Melissa Odabash Zebra Pareo

I’ve loved Melissa Odabash for some time, so I was thrilled by the Shopbop Sale.  I managed to bag myself an amazing 70% off the Zebra Pareo, and if that wasn’t enough, an extra 20% with a promotion code and free shipping – what is there not to love!  The color (retro brown) works with most solid color tops and the heaviness of the fabric ensured my legs wouldn’t be bothered by any pesky mozzies. If there is a downside it’s that it sold out, so I hope you got yours!

Another Grade A bargain!

Rescue Beauty Lounge

Summer sun, pool chorine and bug repellent spray can wreak havoc with my skin, so I’m always interested in bath & body products that will keep dry skin at bay.  I’d only heard of Rescue Beauty Lounge nail lacquer (dazzling colors and matching price $18) and posh salons; since even the new line’s label was designed by Sara Rotman, I knew it was the pedigree I was hoping for.  Due to its fine grains the exfoliating body wash didn’t quite work for me as an exfoliant, but it’s delightful for a bubble bath!  The hand cream was lovely:  rich (RBL knows hands), but not greasy, it quickly absorbs into skin and all of the products smell great, with Wild Rosemary Pamplemousse being my all time fave! 

I’m giving this a Grade B. And don’t forget, you can still enjoy 75% off with the promo code: SMELL GOOD!

Bordelle Bondage Babydoll

While we love the idea and look of the Bondage Angela Chemise $523, we reckon the Bondage Babydoll $215 is more wearable (and a touch less pricey!), unless of course you have the body of a supermodel. The fabulously-named Bondage Babydoll (above) by Bordelle will appeal to those who love the thrill (of the thought) of bondage, but don’t want to get themselves in too much of a twist on their wedding night!

La Perla Glamour: Quiet Luxury Chemise

If you’ve always dreamed of a piece of La Perla, why not use your wedding night as the perfect opportunity to fulfill that dream! The beautiful Quiet Luxury Chemise $249 is made of Levers lace and is delightfully dainty – needless to say this the chemise has the usual sophisticated La Perla sexiness that is hard to beat!

Sabrina Nadal Bamboo Chemise

If cotton is the love of your life, why not try something a little different from your usual choice: French designer Sabrina Nadal has created the beautiful Bamboo Chemise $225; made of 100% cotton it has a gorgeous lace trim, which is designed to be gathered or not, depending on what takes your fancy!

It’s been a wee while since we last reported on a new online store, and we have to say we really miss seeing new online boutiques opening! So we’re happy to see that a lingerie boutique very close to Knickers HQ has now taken the plunge and gone online.

Betsy La Belle, the cute lingerie boutique in Glasgow, are now offering a well thought out selection of (mainly) retro-style lingerie. Alongside Bullet bras by What Katie Did, lingerie by Bien Fee Pour Toi and Kiss Me Deadly, we’re seeing retro-packaged beauty products like the Lavish Lara Powder Puff and cute ‘High Maintanance‘ emery boards.

Betsy La Belle isn’t your full-on glamorous online boutique, but we love its quaint wee ways and the pieces we see, so it’s thumbs up from us! It’s also worth noting that Betsy La Belle deliver worldwide – especially when you’ve spotted a vintage must have piece!

I fell in love with Surfmonk the moment I saw it but the $200+ price tag was a bit off putting.  The casual beach style and the luscious eco-fiber bamboo terry velour had me imagining I’d just come out of the ocean.  I’ve never seen these robes on sale for less than 25% off,  so imagine my surprise when Shopintuition had the classic long robe for $75 (reg $225).  If you’re looking for something to take the chill off, once your out of the water, you might want to give Surfmonk a try.   Available in sand or black, size: Large only.

Today we’re loving Frances Smily’s bridal collection: if you love delicate silk chiffon with a hint of vintage, you’re going to love Frances Smily’s pieces. Made in New York, this is a real trousseau label with its sheer fabric and use of lace. If you’re going to a wedding shower, why not take a look at Frances Smily’s silk collection, full of rich colours and cute tap pants – a beautiful gift for the bride to be!

Frances Smily is available at their online shop and online at La Petite Coquette; sizing ranges from petite to large (we’d love to see sizes go up to an x-large!) and prices start at around $40 for the naughty bride panty.
