Get a glimpse..

Stockings, fun and frolics! Glimpse magazine offers a light hearted view for all those into retro culture. It is inspired by gentlemen’s magazines from the 1950’s, a period where simply a glimpse of a ladies under-garment was enough to send many into convulsions. Published by Tony Nylons, the famous pin up photographer, these magazines are a real collector's item. While some of the features may lead your vicar to choke on his tea, these are not designed to be an adult publication.However we still think it would make a naughty Christmas present this year (wink!)
And if you are into pin up and burlesque dressing, you will get plenty of ideas for new looks.

I love you, right down to your pretty stockings!

We are so excited about our new subscription service!
Here's how it works .. you choose the type of stockings preferred (stockings, stay ups or full tights) and for how long you want it. Then we take care of the rest!
Each month we will send a pair of seductive stockings, gift wrapped in a beautiful package, complete with a handwritten note (messages can be provided for each month).
Imagine the thrill of opening the mailbox and finding a new pair of pretty, delicate, luxurious stockings.. maybe they'll arrive just in time for that special event, or you could plan one (or many) sexy dates around your deliveries!

It makes a thoughtful gift idea for her. Particularly if your partner, girlfriends, wife loves her stockings and vintage inspired lingerie. A fabulous way to tell her how special she is, not only at Christmas or Valentine's day... but every month!

Stockings and Lingerie shopping - a gentleman's guide

Christmas is just a few weeks away and it's time for you gentlemen to carry out some lingerie detective work! Simply abandon any visions of a pre-canned gift idea that you might be clinging to. Instead buy her a sumptuous, glamorous and unique gift from the heart - an object of desire which could be transformed in something fun for you both in the boudoir!

Here are some golden rules to help you find the perfect gift for your fabulous significant other (ladies, feel free to forward this email as many times as you like. Or print it and hide it in his pocket - wink!)

Tip1 : Women generally do like red. Men THINK women love red. To choose a colour that she will love and feel comfortable wearing, have a sneaky look at her lingerie drawer. What do you see?
Lots of black and neutral tones: Stick to the same colour for stockings and suspender belts. Black is sexy and easy to wear. Black suspenders and black stockings is a winning combination. White garter belts look beautiful with nude sheer hosiery.
Leopard prints: Yay! Your girl probably prefers the glamour of vintage or vintage inspired. Experiment with eye catching prints and bold colours. Yes, you are allowed to buy red stockings, if you really want to.

Tip2 : Buy suspender belts with metal clasps, not plastic. Cheap plastic straps will allow stockings to come loose and fall down the leg. All our suspender belt have metal clasps and are fully adjustable for a perfect fit. To find the right size check her undies - it is very likely to be the same size as her knickers.

Tip3 : Seamed stockings are sexy. And slimming. Chances are your lady will love them! Fully fashioned stockings have a seam sewn in (rather than printed), are ultra sheer and more expensive, but also more durable and a special treat.

Tip4 : Practical lingerie is generally not sexy lingerie. Ditto for stockings. Get her something that will make her feel fabulous!

Finally, don't be scared to ask the experts if you are still not sure. We are always happy to offer ideas and advice!
