Hanky Panky Price Increase!

Ayyyyy Caramba! Hanky Panky will be increasing the prices of the following items in January of 2012.

The company that manufactures the "World's Most Popular Thong," Hanky Panky, has remained the same price point since 2004 despite increases in labor and material costs. They claim that they are forced to raise prices in order to maintain the high quality that their customers expect from them.

Below are the styles that have changed in price and what they have changed to!

Signature Lace Original Rise and Low Rise thong : $20.00

Plus Size Thong: $22.00

Petite Low Rise Thong: $20.00

Signature Lace Unlined Camisole: $48.00

We are able to take any orders that customers would like to place on these items. Stocking up may be a smart thing to do if you love your Hanky Panky products!

Hyped Up on Hosiery!

Hosiery is back and more popular than ever!

During the past few years hosiery has been making a comeback. It has gone from being an item that you only would see your grandmother wear to a key fashion statement for all ages. It has done so by changing colors, styles, shapes, and even by using a more diverse array of fabrics.

Every lady creates an outfit she loves and wants to wear all the time, but hesitate to in order to avoid repetitiveness. Well here's the solution! Grab a different pair of tights each time and spice it up a bit. Your peers will never notice you are wearing the same outfit over and over again.

Fashion Stocking patterns on the rise:

Must try style: Stay up thigh highs. Most people view thigh highs to be a sexy and used in the bedroom, but they were originally designed for a very functional purpose. These stockings have a silicone band at the top that resists slipping down the thigh taking the place of a garter belt which can be uncomfortable and sometimes get in the way and show underneath certain clothing. They provide ventilation in the crotch area reducing perspiration and potential bacteria and fungal growth. And hey, you can't complain if they happen to leave you looking sexy at the end of the day when you take off your clothing!

Must try Brands found at Bertha Church: Spanx, Commando, DKNY and Berkshire

Bonus: You are guaranteed to get chic for cheap! The average price of hosiery costs from $5 to $40 making it an inexpensive way to stay trendy this fall/winter season.

Supportive and Sexy without the wire!

Soft cup, better known as non-wire bras, are known for their comfort and lead people to think that they do not provide any support for the girls. This is not true. Soft cup bras provide from medium support to full support in a less dramatic fashion. Soft cups come in an array of styles and colors and are just as sexy as their wired counterparts.

Below are some of the soft cup bras that we have in the store that are stylish as well as wireless:

Pearl Lace by Belabumbum

Cotton Bralette by Fleur't

Signature Lace Bandeau by Hanky Panky

Crossover Bralette by Hanky Panky

Original Bralette by Hanky Panky

Never Say Never Bralette by Cosabella

Bandeau with Lace by Coobie

Cami bra with lace by Coobie

Another great thing about wireless bras is that they tend to cost much less than bras with the wire. Come on down to check out what we've got or give us a call today!
