Valentine’s Day Should Be a Daily Luxury

Monday, January 26th, 2009

Call me Crazy….or a hopeless Romantic, but Valentine’s Day should be everyday. You love, honor and cherish your significant other every moment of everyday. If your thoughts are positive, loving and good almost every moment of everyday, the synergy should come back to you full circle.

Its a profound place, a most trusting place to come from, vulnerable at that, but if you are bewitched body and soul, count your blessings, as not everbody expereinces this even in their lifetime.

Watching love grow in many ways is an amazing thing….I see it everyday in our Retail Store at Pampered Passions Fine Lingerie. Love and being adored is an amazing thing. If you have been adored once in your lifetine to the degree I am speaking of, you could pass away tomorrow and your life would be complete.

One gentleman came into the store and he was proposing in Oregon and wanted to propose with our Fine Lingerie. Needless to say she said, overwhelmingly, Yes!

2 ladies in their 20’s came into our store and they were going to Vail for the weekend with their husbands. They wished to purchase some Lingerie for the trip. I did not see the two ladies for about 10 months, when they brought their new babies in. They both acknowledged the babies were created in Vail and Pampered Passions Fine Lingerie was a significant part of the weekend. They call their two babies Pampered Passions babes!

Lastly, a woman was shopping at http://www.pamperedpassions.com looking for something with pearls. She mentioned her husband just bought and surprised her with a double Opera strand of pearls. She purchased a double strand Bracli pearl thong for her husband. Every woman needs a strand of pearls, she wished to return the favor.

We have seen so much love come through our doors over the years we have been in business. So many meaningful stories, so many couples loving, reviving, or appreciating what they have and the journey they are on.

Valentine’s Day truly is a daily luxury, you can create the most meaningful of relationships with a little “frosting” on top, dont be surprised if you end up in a Fine Lingerie Store! Its the start of a most wonderful, full-filling revival of any relationship, whatever stage of your life you might be in!

When Underwire Just Wont Do!

Saturday, January 3rd, 2009

Women ask me all the time…so what bra do you wear? I may be the ONLY owner of a bra business that does NOT own a bra, nor do I wear one.

Customers look at me quite perplexed and in wonderment, not quite knowing what to say this also encompasses the Bra Supplier Reps that call on Pampered Passions Fine Lingerie.

Its quite confusing, although it makes perfect sense and comfort to me, and many of our “Customer Converts” who do not wear underwire every single day.

If you are a AA,A or B cup you don’t have to wear underwire everyday of the week. If you are C cup up to a DD, there are bras that can be worn that do not have underwire for at least one day out of your week. The facts are these…..

It is not healthy to have underwire tightly worn every single day of the week under your arms and breast tissue. Some women even sleep in underwire which we do our best to correct and educate these women that non-underwire alternatives are plentiful these days.

There are also camisole alternatives with and without microfibre that are wonderful alternatives at least one day a week. Bodysuits as well, which is what I personally wear everyday. The microfibre camisoles from Arianne, Cosabella Shelf camisoles, and many other brands do exist.

I happen to be a “38ish Bish”. Before launching into the Lingerie Industry which was by “default”, I found myself personally challenged with fit and comfort. A sales lady at Vickie’s made me feel like an Alien from another planet being as she put it, I was “wide and shallow” with small “B” breasts. Wow, I felt like the feature at a freak show after this encounter!

Our 40 bandwidth ladies LOVE Pampered Passions Fine Lingerie. If you are a 40 bandwidth+ and you are a B, C or D, in particular camisoles are a wonderful thing for you. There are so many styles of camisoles to choose from including ones you can wear to work, under jackets, that also refine your midsection. When I am fitting a fuller figured women, I always take in a camisole. I show her this alternative, she pops it over her head or over her feet, and voila! She stares at herself in amazement in the mirror. Her “ladies” are up, her waist in thinner and she is feeling so unbelievably beautiful, like she never has before.

This is one of my favorite encounters, watching a woman see herself differently, feel confident and love herself just a little bit more, Ok, a lot more!

No Underwires can be your friend, if you are having a bad day, get out of your Underwire, you will be amazed at how good you can feel!
