B L A C K W H I T E.

For some reason i've never been one for sexy lingerie at night but i absolutely adore it when it transcends evening wear and is incorporated into an every day outfit. I own a pair of black pleated silk pajama shorts that i like to wear around in public so it's only natural i would add these super cute corsets to my day time collection! Usually when i find amazing pieces like these opshopping i'll often wish to myself "If only i could find this in different sizes or colours" but i always know in the back of my mind there's a very slim chance of that ever happening. But sometimes, in that rare occurrence, it does, and it always makes me wonder if everything oprah said about "The Secret" is true. I was lucky enough to come across not one but four of these stunning vintage corsets on my opshopping trip the other day and am absolutely smitten with their romantic, dreamy and feminine design. Three of the four will be hitting the Gary Pepper Vintage store this week and are available in cream lace and a stunning cream tulle.

I have just finished sourcing my new collection and it will be up by the end of the week! I have no idea how many items i have but my collections seem to be getting bigger and bigger each week and i'm worried! I remembered i promised myself i would never list 200 items again unless i had hired help so it looks like i'm either going to have to slow down or finally let go of some of the responsibility and learn to trust someone with parts of my business. Right now, as much as it pains me to say, option B sounds more realistic. I'm secretly kind of excited to start looking for a new girl to add to the team though so that's probably a good sign :)

I was suppose to be taking photos of new stock today but unfortunately i decided to put on one of these new lace corsets and got a little sidetracked by their beautifully feminine design which completely inspired me to mess up my hair, add some smoky eyes and accentuate my over sized lips for once (if you can't tell by the photos above?). Plus, i've really been looking for any reason to take some photos in my new Jeffrey Campbell wedges that arrived the other week . I wore a sheer black lace tee over the top of this corset and turned two very simple pieces into my new favourite obsession; lingerie day wear :)
