Where do bikinis come from?

3 May

If you’re browsing around here, you should know where babies come from. (And if you don’t…sorry…we won’t be talking about that today!)

Well, in celebration of Summer getting closer and closer, that means bikini weather is almost here! So today we’re going to be talking about the origin of the bikini.

After a bit of researching, I stumbled upon a Wikipedia article about Micheline Bernadini. In 1946, she was hired as a model to showcase the newest summer staple in beachwear…the bikini. Take a look:

Not much has changed, huh?

We are SOOO in love with this image we found of Naomi Campbell over on Frou Frou Fashionista’s Tumblr. How gorgeous and simple with the black and white animal print. Just stunning! Happy Friday, bombshells! :)

 

Boudoir inspiration from Frou Frou Fashionista…

19 Aug

I don’t recall how I discovered Frou Frou Fashionista, but it was love at first sight.

According to their site, Frou Frou Fashionista “showcases the limitless styling options with lingerie and inspires readers to build their own intimate apparel wardrobe.  It also aims to redefine the lingerie industry in a positive light; demystifying the stigma created by the less classy side of the industry and revealing its very glamorous potential.”

The gals behind the blog are a mother-daughter team who also run a super-lovely, award-winning luxury lingerie boutique just outside Los Angeles called Faire Frou Frou. We LOVE what they’re doing and feel like we need to make a special trip out to California to take in all the loveliness of their boutique in-person! Here are some of our favorite photos from their blog. SUCH a great place to find inspiration for your boudoir session!
