New Year Lingerie Color Wheel

For me, the period of time around New Year's is a time to relax and recover, as well as plan for the future. I don't do New Year's resolutions anymore, but I do take stock of the previous year and set some mental goals for the next.

Fashion-wise, New Year's is also a mix of comfort and glamour. There are parties, lounging, and generally several fun meals out. Appropriately, today we're focusing on lingerie that exudes positives vibes for 2013 while helping you out in both the comfort and glamour departments.

The La Lilouche Belle Rogue Grecian SoftCup Bra and Scrunchie Bow Knicker set is a perfect way to ring in 2013. Red is the color of energy and passion, which gives you a great mindset going into January. This set is perfect if you are having a low key New Year's Eve with someone special at home. I'm a sucker for lingerie that features bows, and this set is elegant and celebratory without being too over the top.

Sometimes you just want to relax as you contemplate the New Year, and MC Lounge is here to make sure that you look good while you're doing it! Their purple Stretch Silk Yoga Shorts and SilkRacer Back Camisole is the perfect way to look chic while you make your resolutions or just enjoy a decadent brunch at home. These pieces are flattering, sexy, and above all comfortable. Purple is often associated with wisdom and creativity, which you may want to call on as 2013 starts up with a roar.

If you're wondering what to wear to a New Year's Eve party, look no further than the Maya Hansen Charlotte Corset 0106. This blue brocade corset would look amazing with a pencil skirt or as part of a black tie ensemble. Blue reminds us of health and serenity during this busy time of the year.

You can't really go wrong with classic black lingerie, and this Mimi Bra and Panty Set by Oh La La Cheri Paris is the perfect at home party accessory. The black mesh is backed by nude fabric, so you won't show too much! The bows and the lace overlay on the thong are absolutely adorable as well. Black has a classic elegance that never goes out of style.

Last, but certainly not least, everyone needs something soft and sexy to sleep in. This Naked Princess Lovely EverAfter Modal Babydoll fits the bill beautifully. The chocolate color is unusual and works for many skin tones, and their modal pieces are the softest on the market. Brown is traditionally the color of stability, which means you can sleep feeling calm and in control of things. 

What about you? What's your favorite color and why?

Ludique Lingerie - Mythic Birds Collection

This week we're thrilled to introduce the newest collection by Ludique lingerie called Mythic Birds! This collection is a gorgeous take on the underwear as outerwear trend and contains some great pieces for layering or wearing out. This label is Romanian and their newest collection is inspired by elements of Romanian art.

The Ludique Maiastra features a gorgeous purple color against sexy sheer tulle, but also offers lots of variation. Start with the basics in the form of the gorgeous Maiastra soft bra, and then pick between the Ludique Maiastra Bikini Panty or the Ludique Maiastra High-Waist brief if you like a more retro look. Then, add the Ludique Rara Avis Suspender belt to complete things! This set is great for those who love a little drama in their life, but also like to be comfortable. The materials are soft and the whole set is sexy and wearable for many occasions. The full set creates a set of cutouts that are both sensual and artistic.

The Ludique Maiastra Bodysuit can be worn as lingerie, by itself, or as a layering piece under another shirt for a night out. The bodysuit has just a hint of sheerness and a daring neckline that mimics a harness. Purple is the hot color for winter right now, and this bodysuit is a perfect combination of trendy colors and classic design.

For those of you who can't get enough black, the Ludique Rara Avis Bodysuit is the perfect choice for this winter. It features the same dramatic neckline as the Maiastra Bodysuit but comes in basic black. The stretch satin straps ensure that you're not sacrificing comfort for sex appeal!

I've never met a piece of blue lingerie that I didn't love, so I'm especially enthralled by this Ludique Phoenica set. The soft bra is trimmed with satin jersey straps which are adjustable, and the bra is slightly padded for extra support. Like the Maiastra set, it can be layered with the Rara Avis Suspender Belt to create a fun cutout effect.

The Ludique Phoenica Bodysuit is simply gorgeous. The blue really makes the design of the cups pop in a completely different way than the purple version does. This would be a great piece to layer under a sheer shirt for an extra dash of color.
