I can’t take credit for today’s find. The only reason I know about Simon Preen is because one of my favorite lingerie bloggers, Morning Madonna, tweeted about them, and you all know how I feel about a good catsuit. I’ve been in my feelings lately about not having been to a Comic-Con in awhile. When I lived in Georgia, I went to Dragon*Con pretty regularly. Even after moving to Seattle, […]
Tl;dr: Savage X Fenty might just be the “disruptive” lingerie brand we’ve been waiting for. I’ll be honest. Most celebrity lingerie lines barely register with me. For every Elle Macpherson (now Heidi Klum Intimates), there’s a Britney Spears. For every Dita Von Teese, there’s a Halle Berry.

It’s an interesting phenomenon, and it’s perhaps no more evident than in who’s covering Rihanna’s new lingerie line…and who isn’t. We’ve been tweeting updates on the Rihanna lingerie story since April 17th or so […]
