claire pettibone wedding gowns

I love these dresses. Claire Pettibone gowns have been featured in countless magazines and spreads, and for good reason. Looks from the Spring 2010 lookbook:

p.s. she also makes luxury lingerie…nice!

by the way, that cute little dress from Friday’s post (see below) is a Claire Pettibone creation!

sexy sleepwear for when the honeymoon’s over

You may be planning on packing a different piece of lingerie for evey night of your honeymoon that’s been carefully planned out (shoes included). :-) But what about after the honeymoon? I’ll never forget the advice that my sister’s older wedding planner gave her at her bridal shower- “keep it freaky.” Well, okay then.

But let’s be real here. It’s not likely that you’ll be pulling out your garters, fishnets, and 4 inch heels every night when the sun goes down. I wanted to scope out some sexy options for those other nights- super comfy but still very sexy- just enough to remind your hubby why he’s sooooo in love with you!

These first two are from Forever 21.com- very affordable options.

I made a point to pick out some items that are easy to find and relatively inexpensive because these are items that you want to be able to have lots of tucked in your drawer to throw on for pajamas. Next up- Victoria’s Secret.

And last but not least, Nordstroms.com.

I want them all! And just to play devil’s advocate here- there are some sexy sleepwear options that you don’t have to go out and buy that are comfy as well: a not-so-big tshirt or tank top and panties or maybe one of his old dress shirts or pajama shirts. The message here is keep it freaky sexy even after the honeymoon is over :-) .
