Valentines Day no doubt inspires you to bust out some new sexy lingerie for your sweetie, (for tips on lingerie, click here…) but if you really want February 14th to be remembered for the next 365 days, here are our recommendations on some sweet extras  to make this the absolute sauciest night of the year!

Stockings

Nothing says sex appeal like a pair of stockings. Silky, sheer, sensuous! Whether you like barely-there sheers, or fishnets with rhinestones, our selection of stockings are sure to take your Valentines Day over the top. Choose from stockings that attach to a garter, or ones that stay up on their own… Our stocking are now also available in a larger size for tall and/or curvy gals!

Nippies

These adhesive nipple covers are made from lingerie fabric and look amazing no matter what size and shape your breasts are! Choose the red hearts for a classic Valentines look or sequined tassels (with matching panties!) for a burlesque-inspired evening.  Need some twirling tips?  Check this video! We can’t get enough of this saucy demo…

1000 Flowers Body Massage Bars

As a fun way to get even closer, an intimate massage should be on your agenda this Valentine’s. Our cocoa butter-based massage bars melt at body temperature and turn into a deliciously smooth way to massage your lover. They’re “guy friendly” and won’t stain your clothing or sheets. Locally made in the Slocan valley, these bars have natural ingredients and are scented with essential oils, not artificial fragrances or perfumes. They’re even non-toxic, so feel free to use all your senses… touch, smell, even taste!


Kissaholic Lip Gloss from Booty Parlor

With names like “Throb,” “Swoon,” and “Tremble” how could you resist these delicious little tubes of lip nectar? They’re non-tacky, leave your lips kissably soft, and will help you seduce your lover with its aphrodisiac blend of gingko biloba, ginger, and passion flower. Vegan friendly and available in a tint to suit you perfectly. Muah!

NIPPLES.

Nipples!  They’re a funny thing – We all have them… so what’s the big deal?  I mean, have you ever felt a cold breeze blow by and all of a sudden — There they are! And remember Janet Jackson’s infamous wardrobe malfunction during the Super Bowl a few years back? People were horrified! They’re airbrushed out of photographs and carefully covered up on the red carpet. But is this general anti-nipple attitude healthy? Why are nipples taboo? In our experiences at the store, we’ve heard from lots of women who think that no one will take them seriously if the outline of their nipples show through their clothes because it becomes somehow “too distracting.”

Women should love their bodies; breasts, nipples, and all. That’s why we’re so excited about Nippies by Bristols6! If you’re going to conceal your nips, wear their “Patches of Freedom” ($25-) which are are stretchy, wrinkle-free nipple covers that are available in fun shapes like stars and hearts. They’re comfortable and stick with the best medical-grade adhesives.  Wear them anywhere! Many of our customers match them to a bikini bottom for beach or pool-side because Patches of Freedom are water-resistant and available in fun prints and colours!

Or, adorn your breasts with fantastic sequined tassels ($35-) for a sexy at-home burlesque. Some tassels even come with a sexy sheer mesh panty ($45-)

We love these tips for wearing Nippies! You can find more at Bristols Six Website.
