La Senza Update & Valentine's Shopping Report from London

Last week, one of my UK boys, andrew, went on a scouting trip to Oxford Street in London for knickers (panties) for my Valentine's Day assignment, as well as to check on the status of La Senza:


La Senza
- His local La Senza (on the way in to London) was very picked over.
- At the two Oxford Street stores he visited, they are selling out their stock. The remaining selection was inconsistent, and there wasn't really anything in pink, red or heart-designs. However, there are good bargains to be had, with almost everything at 3 for the cost of 2. The stores will be getting in stock from their new owners, but not until after Valentine's Day.


Marks & Spencer
He went looking for the panties that I selected with him online:

- Limited Collection Chiffon Heart Print Bikini Knickers  £6
Product Code: T818160B

- The Oxford Street store did not have them.
- The Marble Arch location had a good selection of the knickers and matching bras. He purchased his size, and finds them to be of quality, with lots of nice little touches, at a good price.
- He also noted that if the store doesn't have the ones you want, or doesn't have the correct size, they can order them for you if you have the Product Code (see above), which is also available on their website. And, of course, you can also order them online.

While he was there, he also picked up a pair of these gorgeous stretch silk thongs:

- Autograph Silk Blend Pleated Thong  £12

He is a very good boy, and did a wonderful job of selecting these with my tastes in mind.


BHS

He checked BHS. While they had a lot of pretty stuff, he felt that they were probably too conservative to find anything to fit my tastes. They had nothing red, some pinks, nothing Valentinesy and nothing was on sale.


John Lewis

He found a couple lovely possibilities at John Lewis, but they are quite pricey. My favorite is this:

- John Lewis Women Flora Thong  £15

for which they also had matching shorts (tap pants), balcony (balconette) bra and suspender (garter belt).

He also found this exquisite lace set. I don't really like the pinkish waistband in the pic, but he assures me that the pieces in the store were a beautiful red.

- Mimi Holliday Frappe Lace Thong, Red  £40



Ann Summers

He didn't actually visit Ann Summers, but I know that jezi and my other gurls often find it one of the best places for holiday lingerie so I decided to take a look and add my choices:

- Destiny Red/Black Suspender Brief (Garter Panties)  £14

This sexy Destiny red and black collection also has a couple matching bras, a g-string (probably too insubstanial for your package) and a babydoll nightie. And there are even some lovely lace-topped black stay-up stockings with red seams, bows and cuban heels.

And finally, here is Ann Summer's "cheeky" version of Valentine heart panties. I must admit that I'm very tempted to order my jezi-girl to buy these:

- Open Heart Knickers  £10

If the reds and blacks match, I think they would be really cute with these Heart Print Stockings.

Shopping for Valentine's Knickers (UK)

The UK branch of La Senza has filed for bankruptcy. Some of the stores were sold and are still open, but the website has been shut down. La Senza was one of my top places to send my trainees to shop for panties in the UK and a favorite of my boys and my jezi-girl. We are really going to miss them!

I'm also aware that they may have some items in the stores, but there won't be any online pics or size charts to refer you to. For now, I'm asking andrew and jezi to have a look and let me know what they find.

andrew and I were doing a little pre-shopping online today, and I found these perfect Heart-Print Valentine's Knickers at Marks and Spencer:


The front panel is white chiffon featuing a black and red heart print, and topped with a black bow and red ribbon rose. While they have a full red point d'esprit mesh back, it is accented with a red lace medallion and black bow that make them even cuter:


They also have lovely some lace-trimmed knickers in red and bright pink, as well as these sexy Red Brazilian Knickers with Black Contrast Lace Trim:


If you're doing my Valentine's assignment, whether you are training with me or not, send me your shopping report with pictures and/or links, and I may feature it in my blogs.

Valentine Panties

Thanks to everyone who has downloaded my Valentine's Day Assignment. Even if you missed the free download day, it's priced at only 99 cents so as to be accessible to everyone, whether you have a Mistress, are interested in performing it under my direction, or want to do it on your own.

As I was preparing the assignment, I started looking for Valentine's Panties. Cacique has a nice selection, with many good examples of what you are looking for, including these black "Be Mine" tanga panties trimmed in pink lace, with pink lacings up the back.

They a variety of hipsters, boyshorts and string bikinis with other candy-heart saying like "You Sexy Thing!" ,"Love Me", "X♥X♥" or with lip prints all over them. Being a writer, I also really like these ruffled "Love Words" hipsters even though they have a white background.

The Pink and Black Lace-Trimmed Heart-Print Boyshorts on the left and the Pink and White "Je t'aime" version on the same page are really cute, but seem to have a somewhat low rise, which can be a consideration for those with a nice size package. There are some Pink, Silver and White Cotton Boyshorts which seem to have better coverage, but I don't think they're as cute.

These Pink and Black Satin and Lace Panties remind me of my boys and girls who love the look and feel of satin. They also have an absolutely yummy Pink Satin and Black Lace Skirt trimmed with garters which looks like it might be a close match.

Lacy pink or red panties, such as these Red Lace-Trimmed Nylon/Spandex Hipsters, are also acceptable if you can't find something more specifically Valentine-themed.


For Those Reporting To Me:

I would love this Pink Satin and Black Lace Chemise. Just send me a Lane Bryant e-gift card and I'll order it for pick up at my local store. I have a coupon where I can get something else free (probably panties) with the purchase. :-)

For more examples of the chemises, nightgowns, robes and peignor sets that I prefer, see my archived Valentine's wish lists at:

I've also set up a new Valentine's Day 2012 wish list for the items that I want this year, including some new Egyptian Cotton sheets.


Finally, here's more info regarding what I'm looking for in a good Pre-Valentine's Shopping Report.

And, in case you are wondering, the panties which that boy purchased are the same ones that now grace the front of the Male Service: Valentine's Day book.

Happy New Year!

I hope everyone enjoyed the holidays. I had a special boy visiting me and serving me, and had a wonderful time.

Around the house, he was generally dressed in only a collar, cock ring or CB device, and panties. There weren't any scene events going on, but we went out on vanilla-ish dates, with secret bits of kink thrown in. In addition to visiting my favorite art museum, indy movie theatre, etc, we went out somewhere different for dinner every night. I mixed it up from casual to romantically sensual and extravagant, selecting an assortment of good local restaurants with a variety of cuisines and experiences.

Each time we dressed to go out, I would select a CB device or cock ring for him to wear and/or other items as well as panties. On one of the first days, I had him wear one of my black lace bras under his shirt. Another evening, we went lingerie and toy shopping (for both of us) at a local adult store while he was locked in one of his CBs. And he wore his black leather collar out to the New Year's Eve!

As we progressed, I taught him to properly shave his legs, and had him wear stockings for me when we went out as well as around the house, and even to bed. I also painted his toenails and started to teach him paint mine. I especially loved the fact that every time he noticed the pretty pink polish on my fingernails it reminded him that his toes were secretly painted to match. ;-)

I sent him home still wearing the toenail polish, and with the collar and stockings, as well as what I hope were some wonderful memories. :-) And while I know that it was a very expensive trip for him, I do hope to see him again as we continue his training.
