Ari Dein arrives in Massachusetts.

Posted on November 8, 2011 by Forty Winks

We happily welcome Ari Dein to our racks here at Forty Winks.

After seeing the line in NYC a couple of times, Meredith and I finally decided that we just couldn’t keep this loveliness from our Boston/Cambridge customers for another second.

The detailing on these one-of-a-kind pieces is stunning. Something you need to see to believe.

And the way you’ll feel wearing this silk? Like you’ve died and gone to heaven.

Sure they’re pricey, but these pieces have special occasion written all over them.

For your anniversary, for your honeymoon, or just because YOU want to wear truly luxurious lingerie, Ari Dein’s Boutique Hotel collection is exactly what you need.

Treat yourself. You won’t regret it.

InStyle’s Peep Show

Posted on September 17, 2011 by Forty Winks

Fall is in the air!

The crisp weather is just another sign that everyone’s favorite season is right around the corner. On top of the usual fun, Fall outdoor activities that we New Englanders love to partake in , one of my long awaited things to do is to read all of the new September issues. It always reminds me of what I’ve been missing all Summer.

InStyle’s 638 page novel (!!!!) took me a little longer to get through this month. I’m finally finished with it and I can tell you that I was just beaming when I saw the Peep Show lingerie spread they laid out.

I was so proud to see some of our very own items represented over the four page spread!

Take a look at some of the stunners you can find right on the racks here at FW.

La Fee Verte Silk Teddy $118

The InStyle choice was Zinke’s Bright Light Set in Lake and Spice, and while we love this pairing too, we’re stock the cotton On The Road Again set in Gravel and Spice.

It’s just as pretty a combo and we know our customers love their cotton

Zinke On The Road Again Bralette $54 and Panty $46

And here is just a sneak peek at what is soon to come from Felina….

Felina Maxine Unlined Balconette $39 and Gabriella Garter Skirt w/ Thong $36

They also showcased a few of our favorite standbys here at Winks like Chantelle, Huit, Eberjey, and even some newcomers like Beautiful Bottoms which we’ll start carrying this Fall.

Shiny and new

Posted on September 2, 2011 by Forty Winks

Many of us have lingerie ensembles from past special occasions that we’d like to wear again (you put enough thought into these things right?) but worry that the newness wore off at first glance.

Now I think it’s safe to assure you that your Sig O probably doesn’t care about repeat performances. Your lovey is probably just happy to see you in whatever get up you’ve got going on…but we understand that in order to really get into these types of things, you may in fact need a new little something added to your outfit.

So I’m happy to report that our new accessories from Maison Close are just the added touch of newness you need to revitalize those sexy-time outfits.

Le Petit Secret Les Suspenders ($18) are finally back in stock. A best seller last V-day, these simple, elasticized strips of velvet feature a single garter hook for a look that’s all strappy and sexy without the added bulk of a garter belt.

The Salon Bourbon Bow Tie ($30) is our newest little-something-extra.The coquettish, silky black bow slips over your head and adjusts to neck size. Try adding it to any bedroom outfit for a look that’s somehow both coyly understated and over-the-top sexy.
