Happy Monday Everyone!!! I have a wonderful surprise today, so read on :)
If you've followed the blog for any amount of time, then you know that I absolutely love Vogue magazine. It's the only fashion magazine that I subscribe to. I love their fashion editorials and I'm always delighted with their up to the minute articles on current events. Yes, current event articles in Vogue magazine!!
There are a few other perks to being a subscriber. From time to time, I receive lovely books with the new collections of Ugg, Ralph Lauren, Hugo Boss and many others. It's such a delight to receive a special envelope with such a nice treat inside. Quite often I share what's inside with you here on the our Monday Morning Inspiration posts.
I recently received a new book from La Perla. Many of you enjoy making beautiful lingerie, so I thought I would share a few pictures from the book.
I especially liked the back detail on these two pieces.
Many of you make corsets and bustiers, so I thought you would especially enjoy seeing the boning on these pieces.
Take note of the side zipper. Makes sense!
The detail on this piece is exquisite.
Beautiful slips.
In the picture below, they are showing the bra as well as the garment. Take note of the shoulder pads!!!! They're bigggg!!!
Now for the surprise...and it's a great one!!! I have a subscription to give away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here are the details;
1. You must live in the United States.
2. You must be a follower of this blog.

Oh, what a great giveaway! I follow via the follow box on the side bar. :)
ReplyDeleteIt really is a nice one :) Good Luck!
DeleteI follow by way of the box on the sidebar - and I love the diversity of your posts. I've learned so much from you via that big ol' Internet in the sky. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteGreat Giveaway, thanks Rhonda. I follow through Bloglovin....
ReplyDeleteI follow via the follower box. :) New follower but so far I'm lovin' everything I see!
ReplyDeleteI follow via bloglovin' and really enjoy what you offer- thanks. Yesterday I sat with my new 850 + page Vogue and devoted myself to it for a few hours! I was thinking about subscribing and being gifted would be such a treat.
ReplyDeleteOooh, how exciting, I follow by Bloglovin, and email.
ReplyDeleteCount me in! I love those bras with the back interest, exquisite!
ReplyDeleteI follow by email and the sidebar. I really appreciate all of your helpful tutorials and cool photos!
ReplyDeleteI follow via bloglovin. I haven't read fashion magazines for years - although I used to! I stopped to save money about ten years ago to save for travels, but then I started avidly search pinterest a few years ago. You've just convinced me that I should re-investigate the good old fashioned fashion mag.
ReplyDeleteWhoop! Fun surprise! And those corsets are gorgeous! Not sure I'm ready to accept shoulder pads, however. I follow through Bloglovin'.
ReplyDeleteI get your posts weekly to my email. It's a bright spot in my day. I think I'm also part off bloglovin but I'm not sure.
ReplyDeleteI follow by the sidebar. Would love to win the subscription!
ReplyDeleteEver-Lovin' Bloglovin'
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the lingerie, Rhonda. I love the corset, the boning lines are quite beautiful. Now I have lace envy though. xx
ReplyDeleteI guess this is why they are able to charge so much for these pieces. They are exquisite. The next time I do a bustier, I would like to copy how they sewed in the boning. It's just so lovely.
DeleteI follow by e-mail (or bloglovin'). I can't remember. I would love the inspiration from the Vogue magazine. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI follow by email, on the blog and on bloglovin'. I love the lingerie so pretty. I sure hope I win as an old woman of 68, I am too old for all these pretty things but I still remember when and still dream...
ReplyDeleteOh Glenna, you aren't old. You are just getting started!
DeleteWell some days I sure feel old, but I still sew everyday. 40+ years of owning a sewing business makes you feel like you are old if you aren't sewing. All I really need is a face lift to take the sages away... haha
DeleteTrust me, you are perfect just as you are :)
DeleteOh, my, these are gorgeous! Of course, yours, Rhonda, is just as amazing. (I read a newer post first.) Don't include my name in the subscription contest, please. I already subscribe digitally to Vogue. Have you watched the documentary on Diana Vreeland? Lots of wonderful Vogue history.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful things. Thanks for sharing. I follow you on Bloglovin. Ps we met at the novi show a couple weeks ago!
ReplyDeleteYou are the winner!!! You can see the post here, http://rhondabuss.blogspot.com/2014/10/and-winner-is.html

ReplyDeleteI follow by the side bar. Love Vogue!
