gift guide – mother’s day

04.17.2012 by btslingerie // 1 Comment

We believe Moms should get the special treatment all year round, but life is busy and sometimes things fall on the backburner. Not this month! Mother’s day is less than a month away (May 13th) so we’ve put together a curated selection of our best-selling styles (our own mom’s have approved a lot of these) for the different mother figures in your life. One thing all Moms seem to share in common is that they spend a lot of time doing things for others, depending on what stage of motherhood they’re in their schedules may change drastically but that one factor stays the same. Nothing reminds her to relax, rest, and get a little more “me” time than lounge and sleepwear, and that is what we are all about… Here are some styles sure to make Mom proud

Bye bye skinny jeans, at least for now. Mom-to-be is sleeping for two, and dressing for two different bodies can be a chore. Why not get her something that will fit and flatter her body before, during, AND after the bundle of joy arrives?

Our Well Played yoga pant with foldover waist band that can flip up and shape to her growing belly, with high lycra content it will stay fit even if she goes up a size. Good news is they are also perfect for post-baby workouts. Opt for a darker “babyproof” color like dusk (dark blue), shade (purplish grey), or midnight (black).

Pair it with our Playdate babydoll has the most flattering swing shape with almost a full half circle cascading over your curves there is plenty of room for a growing baby bump. Post pregnancy it will be the perfect sensual slip to get her groove back in.

Long nights, no sleep, and a changing body have her wondering what happened to her golden years – that bundle of joy was worth the wait but she still wants to feel pretty. Just because the bar for comfort is raised doesn’t mean the bar for style should be lowered – get her loungewear that can handle her round the clock schedule.

Well Played Cardigan plays all sides- sleeves stay up and don’t slide down for dishes, diapers, and more. the front ties up and makes a great beach cover up- perfect on those chilly nights at the beach or on vacation. better yet, passing out after a crazy day in this is just as dreamy as waking up in, same can’t be said for jeans… pair it with the well played lounge pant for the perfect on the lounge alternative.

Fast forward, the kids are all grown up and have flown the coup. Long gone are the sleepless nights of infancy and the hectic afterschool scheduling. Her attention can finally rest back on the nest, and whether that means picking up an old hobby, or redecorating a room, there is plenty of time for lounging and enjoying the sweet silence.

Birds of Play legging
and Playdate tank are the perfect way to lounge in style, and definitely a step up from a baggy tshirt and sweats which can become a convenient alternative.

She’s happy to take a backseat to the nitty gritty of parenting and enjoy her ability to spoil her grandkids. She might not be running back and forth from gymnastics to soccer or driving a minivan but she wants to look and feel chic hosting movie night in her own home, no granny panties or pajammies allowed. For the stylish Grand Mother opt for something with a little understated luxury like a cozy soft robe with silk or lace, and a super chic wide leg pant that flatters almost every body!

Our playdate or playfield robes are the perfect PJ alternative, chic and sophisticated with lots of coverage and made of breathable and soft modal. Playdate is a modal/silk blend trimmed with delicate mesh, and playfield is a modal/spandex rib jersey trimmed with cotton lace, pair either back to the playdate pant for a perfect year round lounge set that she’ll love.

interview – BTS girl Danielle C of Lexelle Music

04.11.2012 by btslingerie // Leave a Comment

Danielle and I first met at the very first BTS fashion show casting in 2005, when I was just sophomore at FIT. Since then I’ve seen her career blossom in front of the lens with her face gracing notable campaigns for designers like Rachel Roy, but one thing I learned behind the scenes and after the BTS show was that Danielle had an amazing voice. We worked together styling indie singer and NYC artist Nicola’s latest album cover and promotional shoot. Post-shoot Danielle graced us with an a capella tune that gave me goosebumps, and that was when I first learned about the talent that didn’t meet the eye.

Fast forward to today, Between the Sheets “the brand/collection” is now two years young and Danielle is as beautiful as ever and pursuing that passion with that dreamy voice & Lexelle Music. I’m so glad we finally got to work together again, and I’m thrilled she was willing to answer a few questions for us here! Read on to find out her personal beauty must haves, musical inspirations, and an insiders perspective on the similarities/differences between the modeling and music industries.

L: Model or singer, which do you prefer and why?

D: I prefer singing, because my dream and ultimate goal is to be a pop music and cultural icon. Singing and performing, was something I always aspired to do and what I was always passionate about. Modeling is a lot of fun, but not something I ever sought out as my career.

L: Musical inspirations, who’s on heavy rotation on your playlist?

D: Garbage, Goldfrapp, Queen, David Bowie, New Order, Roxy Music, Depeche Mode, Robyn, Prince

L: What do you think makes a woman in lingerie beautiful?

D: High quality lingerie is cut very accurately around the female form. That being said, all of our best parts are showcased at their best in great lingerie, expressing our natural beauty, and a vulnerability that is hidden behind everyday streetwear and accessories.

L: If you could change one thing about the modeling or music industry, or both what would it be?

D: If I were in charge of what is considered cool about the music industry, I would not not develop such young talent into superstardom so quickly, therefore age-especially for women wouldn’t be such an issue. Children/young people deserve their youth, and as talented as some of these young acts coming out may be, they lack the substance that the older performers with a bit more life experience bring to a performance. 
The same can be said about modeling. I understand why models are discovered at a young age as it allows the time to develop their look, ultimately lengthening their careers. However, models used in advertising are meant to sell a product to a specific market. The model being beautiful and youthful gives the person viewing the ad an illusion of something to aspire to making them want to buy the product. Beauty and age of course sell, and where the viewer aspires to that, a more age appropriate model gives the viewer something to relate to as well. 

L: What’s your favorite way to wind down after a long week?

D: I love going to the beach in the summertime, I do that almost every day that I have off. In the winter I am more of a homebody and spend a lot of time checking out new music and performing styles, I cook at home a lot and read a lot.

L: Favorite beauty or hair products?

D: I have been using the same Clinique face moisturizer since I was fifteen, I love philosophy’s lip glosses,  and I am very into Urban Decay’s NAKED box, which has a slew of shades of gold based colors ranging from charcoal to nude. I also wear a lot of bright lipstick and am always on the look out for cool colors.

L: If you could vacation anywhere in the world, where would it be?

D: Any exotic place that I have never been that allows immediate access to the ocean. I do have a preference for South America and Europe, but I’d go anywhere new.
