Rack of the Week: Bodysuit Edition

October 19th, 2011

We’ve been receiving some fantastic new bodysuits into the shop, and we’re excited to share some of them with you! Our fitter Regan is our fantastic model!

Inspired by the recent bodysuit trend, as seen on Rihanna, Beyonce and GaGa to name a few, Regan has really made the look her own.

Pairing this pretty lacy body suit from Princesse Tam Tam with a sheer blouse and sleek dark denim, she’s shown us that you can take this lingerie staple and dress it down for a casual, yet sexy, day to evening look.

Bodysuits are great for people who want a long and lean appearance, as they tend to camouflage and smooth out problem areas. They provide the look of a tight, tucked in shirt without the bulk of a camisole or blouse. A bodysuit can also transition well from work to a date. Wear a lacey bodysuit with a pencil skirt and a blazer for the day, and ditch the blazer for a gauzy top at night.

Here are some more great streetwear examples of looks to try with a these versatile items:

Here’s Regan in another great look, again from Princesse Tam Tam.


The body suit look works on a variety of body shapes and sizes! This fall at Secrets we are carrying bodysuits from Princesse Tam Tam, Empreinte, Mimi Holliday and Simone Perele, which means women of many sizes are able to wear this look!

We would love to see how you work your bodysuits! Tweet them at us @secretsFYsister or post them on our facebook fan page!

Regan wears them so well. Here’s one more, paired casually with great green shirt. This look is a great mix of casual and sexy with a peek of lace lending an intriguing edge to the outfit!

Looking forward to fitting you this fall, xo sfys


New Simone Perele

October 12th, 2011

Fall is in full swing and we’ve received boatloads of fabulous new items!  We just can’t resist…falling in love with each and every piece!

Three new sets from Simone Perele have arrived and each one is more lovely than the next.

Pictured above is Romance in lovely rich chestnut. The luscious demi bra is available in sizes B32-34, C32-38, D-E32-36 . There is a matching short in SM-XL and bikini brief in SM-LG.

Celeste is a new everyday style from Simone Perele, which replaces their long time best selling style Avant Premiere. With the same shape and cut, Celeste is available in black in store and ivory to special order.

We love the pretty scalloped lace that like a river runs around the edges of this bra. The bra is in sizes B-E 32-36 and we have the matching bikini brief and deep brief in sizes SM-LG. We are sure you are going to love this new cut, which is extremely flattering to your bustline!

Last but most certainly not least we received a new eye-popping style, Nina in Cerise.

Recalling Japanese origami, the delicate detailing is inspired by the petals of a flower.

Late Night TIFF Party

September 9th, 2011

Fall in Toronto is always a beautiful season for going out. The smog is gone and the city is buzzing with new university students. People are home from summer vacations and the restaurants and shops are full again. Best of all, catching a great film is never easier! The Toronto International Film Festival has arrived, and we’re ready to party. Are you?

We’re going to venture a guess that the hottest dresses you own are going to be the ones you pull out of the closet. You never know which celebrity you might run into, after all. So you need to look your best! When wearing a great dress, you might want to try Commando thongs or high-waisted knickers. They are the best, most invisible knickers and will work under any garment.

The thong is available in a wide range of hot colours!


But! Let’s say that you’re going to be wearing a stylish high-waisted white skirt. You would want to wear the slightly more Bridget-Jones-esque panty. Just slightly though, because Bridget Jones’ knickers weren’t invisible, smooth (no digging in!) and made of the most gloriously soft microfibre around. These might not be a black lace gstring, but they’ll make your outfit look incredible!

Going out on a Fall evening is great, because you can get away with wearing just about anything you like. If you’re like us, you’ll want to begin to experiment with patterned hosiery, mixing them with mini dresses. You know we’ve got you covered in that department.

Strapless bras or convertible bras are important too. This is our favourite season to wear a black convertible bra with an interesting strap arrangement. A great strapless/convertible helps you stay comfortable and contained while you dance the night away. We are now carrying the AWESOMELY incredible Marie Jo Tom strapless/convertible bra. It is available in Cafe Latte and Charcoal, sizes A-E32-38.

One super cool thing about this “strapless” bra is its straps! They are funky and fun, making the bra wearable and functional in a strapless, multiway or regular configuration. We want to show off these straps!
If you don’t fit the size range for this strapless bra, be sure to try some others from Panache or Fantasie. We have lots of options in many sizes!

Are you wearing a tiny dress? Bristols 6 Styling Tape holds everything in place if you are worried about gaps, pulls or even a dropped hem.

We carry a full range of great Bristols 6 products that will have you feeling red carpet ready! Thinking of going in a daring plunging neckline? You will definitely need this!

Trust us to help you with any challenging evening wear this Fall. Holiday parties are around the corner, including those saucy Halloween outfits, Holiday Office Parties and Fall weddings. Any dress you have, we can help you with!

Happy Fall and enjoy TIFF! xo sfys
