Intimates in Film: The Women ~ Lingerie & Video

Inspired by the 1939 The Women film starring Joan Crawford and Norma Shearer, the remake with Meg Ryan, Annette Bening, Eva Mendes, Debra Messing, Jada Pinkett Smith, and a handful of other talented actresses "centers on a group of gossipy, high-society women who spend their days at the beauty salon and haunting fashion shows. The sweet, happily-wedded Mary Haines (Meg Ryan) finds her marriage in trouble when shop girl Crystal Allen (Eva Mendes) gets her hooks into Mary's man...."

To see what the lingerie these two rivals are wearing in the current film, look at the images below.

To get Meg Ryan's innocent look in a white button up bustier (image directly below), the Dolce & Gabbana Gardenia Satin Underwire Bustier (second image below) is 50% off at BareNecessities for $133.99.




For Eva Mendes' vixen attire (image directly below), the Betsy Johnson Intimates Rose Jacquard Merrywidow Bustier (second image below) is on sale at BareNecessities for $53.99.

Lesson No. 3:

Tribute to Princesse Tam Tam

I was saddened to read on The Lingerie Post that Princesse Tam Tam owner Louima Hiridjee and her husband Mourad Amarsy were killed during the Mumbai terrorists attacks. Here at Eve's Apples, our hearts go out to their friends and family.

Bert, from The Lingerie Post, stated, "Blind violence leaves everyone with a sense of emptiness, and we were geniunly shocked by the news that Loumia and her husband were amongst the people killed in the Mumbai terrorist attacks. Hiridjee and her husband were dining at the Oberoi Trident hotel where they were shot and killed by terrorist forces."

In the Times of India article, French lingerie mogul, hubby killed in Mumbai attacks, it states that "...Loumia Hiridjee, creator of the Princess Tam Tam brand, and her husband Mourad Amarsy, both French nationals, were found dead in Mumbai, said Roland de Farcy, president of the group. President Nicolas Sarkozy offered condolences to the families and said France would offer "its unflinching and total support to the Indian democracy in its struggle against terrorism and fanaticism."

Hiridjee, 46, born in Madagascar, founded Princess Tam Tam with her sister Sharma in 1985. Her 49-year-old husband also served as former president of the company that has 158 outlets, mostly in Europe. Indian forces were battling Islamist insurgents who launched the coordinated attacks on two luxury hotels and other targets late Wednesday, leaving more than 130 people dead. Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner earlier issued a statement confirming that two French nationals had died in the attacks. A diplomatic source separately said the couple were killed during an exchange of gunfire.

'The terrorists have attacked the world's biggest democracy. All of the world's democrats are at their side,' Kouchner said in a statement. Among the foreigners killed were nationals from Germany, Japan, Canada, Australia and the United States. Kouchner earlier said that around 20 French nationals and an Air France crew trapped at the five-star Oberoi/Trident hotel had been rescued, but that there could still be others in need of help."

Christmas Suprise

Christmas is peeking around the corner! It’s finally that time of year again where one must get ready to celebrate in style. What better way to get in the holiday spirit than sporting a Christmas costume? There are various possibilities. For those, who like not to show to much we have two proposition.

Santa Lady Mantle and Skirt Set


Santa Lady Pants and Vest Set


For many couples, fantasy role-playing is a great way to spice things up in the bedroom, and fantasy lingerie can add realism to the play. If your bedroom routine has become, well, routine, then consider whether fantasy lingerie is right for you. You can choose something less conservative with sexy transparency or hot lacing.

Heartbell Set





Your man deserve an exceptional night of fun and intimacy. Re-ignite his passion and make it an unforgettable night. If you like skin tight lingerie to reveal your curves, you can choose a skimpy bikini set.




If you have comfort in mind, a loose fitting item such as a baby doll would be your ideal choice. I like see -through baby doll with slits in front to reveal more skin.


Santa's Helper Babydoll

Merry Christmas everyone!!!

Boudoir Basics: Part 1 ~ Bed Linens

The boudoir is such a personal and intimate reflection of who we are as women. I've created a series that will look at basics found in a boudoir that are an expression of your personality. There are countless personalities. Therefore, for the love of brevity and not writing a novel, I've boiled it down to 4 Boudoir Basic Types.

What style are you?

  1. Glamour Puss
  2. Classically Romantic
  3. Stylishly Modern
  4. Sexy Seductress

Scroll down to find your bed linen match up based upon your personality type.

GLAMOUR PUSS


If you're a Glamour Puss, chances are you'll love the "Tigress Stripe" by Ann Gish. Currently, the duvet coverlet is on sale. King or Queen Duvet Coverlet are both $799.90. I think the Round Sea Flower pillow ($139.90) makes the whole look!

For more information, please click on Tigress Stripe at Horchow.

CLASSICALLY ROMANTIC


"Oh Victoria!" If you're a hopeless romantic, you may never get out of this bed again. "Victoria" by Sweet Dreams comes in King and Queen. The King Duvet is $1400, and the Queen Duvet is $1350.

For more information, please click on Victoria at Horchow.

STYLISHLY MODERN


If you like modern styles, the "Amagansett" by Etro Home has updated both a classic and eclectic look. The Paisley King Duvet cover is $888 and Queen is $874. The Red Bed Spread (beneath the Paisley Duvet) is $1219.

For more information, please click on Amagensett at Neiman Marcus.

SEXY SEDUCTRESS


One of my all time favorites is the bedding above for you, Sexy Seductresses. The "Louis" bed linens by Ann Gish come in King and Queen. King Duvet is $650 and Queen Duvet is $600.

For more information, please click on Louis at Neiman Marcus.

These are high end, luxurious bed linens. All of them can be purchased at Horchow.com or Neimanmarcus.com.

GET THESE LOOKS FOR LESS

If you're looking to save a few dollars and still get the same look, here are a few tips:

  1. Choose a plain colored comforter with easy washing instructions. It's more versatile and you'll save money on dry cleaning
  2. Get the same look by embellishing with pillows in the same material
  3. Search websites, such as overstock.com for clearance items
  4. Buy 400+ thread count in a versatile color on sale or at Overstock. That will give you the feel of luxury without paying the high price

No matter what bed linens you use to enhance your boudoir, be sure it reflects your personality, respects your pocket book and helps you Celebrate Your Inner Eve!
