Curvy Kate's Fourth Annual Star in a Bra Competition.

Full cup lingerie brand Curvy Kate aims to target four million consumers with the launch of its fourth annual Star in a Bra competition.

The competition searches the UK for a D+ naturally curvy woman, to become the face and body of the brand and win an international modelling contract.

Over the past 3 years, Curvy Kate has built a portfolio of real women who model for the brand, promoting the ‘feel good figure’ philosophy.

For this year's competition, Curvy Kate is increasing its advertising exposure, retailer promotions and producing a custom made application for Facebook, with added viral features.

With a social presence increase, the brand claims that it is set to generate the highest engagement in its history – aided by the support of retail giants such as Debenhams and Very.co.uk.

The company has ambitious growth plans for the Star in a Bra competition and is currently looking at other destinations to launch the competition. The brand is now sold in 17 countries worldwide and is targeting other overseas markets for 2012.

I love to learn new things. Yesterday, I was speaking with another Ebay seller on the social networking site, LinkedIn, and we were discussing how she made a huge investment in her ecommerce site. She then told me she matched her blog to her store. When I saw her blog, I was jealous! I thought it was very lovely and thought to myself, it's time to change mine to look more elegant, simplified and match it better to my Naughty and Nice Lingerie website. I worked on it all afternoon and think it looks fabulous. I always say that if I knew what I was actually doing, I'd be scary...lol. I had to use Google to learn how to add the menu bar and add the text underneath my logo, but I think the extra research time has paid off.

I'd appreciate your opinions. Please leave a comment below to let me know what you think of the new look!

Now on to my next project...my Ebay store! Wish me luck!

Spanx present all cotton shapewear!

Spanx has announced the soft launch of its first all-cotton shapewear collection, Spoil Me Cotton.

The new range incorporates cotton, slimming seems and a ‘hug of shaping,’ created by double-layer tummy control.

Spanx founder Sara Blakely said: “Women have been asking us for a cotton collection, so I’m super excited about the launch of Spoil Me Cotton.

"By combining the luxury, breathability and comfort of cotton undies with the shaping power of Spanx, we think this new collection is sure to spoil our fans!”

This new line incudes three pieces:

The Spoil Me Cotton Tank, costing $64, features a V-neck silhouette to flatter the bust line and tank style straps

The Spoil Me Cotton Tank Body, costing $74 features a scooped neckline for ample cleavage and full panty bottoms with a hook-and-eye closure for an easy on-and-off.

Finally, the Spoil Me Cotton Panty, $40, features a high-rise panty style for ample coverage made from a high-gauge ‘Real Lasting’ to ensure a fresh appearance after multiple wears.

The SPANX Spoil Me Cotton collection is currently available in shell and black.

It's never too late to find love and rekindle sensual intimacy!

Selling lingerie on the internet at www.naughtyandnicelingerie.com has brought me more blessing than I can count. Not only do I receive financial benefits from owning a florishing business, but I get to meet wonderful people along the way.

I met a couple on the internet just the other day. I have been speaking with them and suggesting lingerie pieces to fit their vivacious love life that has been rekindled while in their 60's! I loved their story so much, with their permission, I want to share it with you.

Adam* contacted me on Sunday night, finding me through my linkedin profile. He was a man on a mission. His wife was having some issues with lingerie and he asked for my advice on better options. He was determined to find a proper shelf bra and garter belt for his blushing bride. This was his favorite outfit and they both were very eager to please one another.

After a few discussions, he let me in on his story. "We are newly weds, met on the (inter)net last June and were married early in December. We are still on our honeymoon and with our libidos, plan to be the rest of our lives. I didn't know a relationship this wonderful was possible. We both were in long term bad marriages, so we have a lot of lost time to make up."

I just love the fact that they both found love, later in life, online no less, and are thoroughly enjoying intimacy, when most older people allow life to slip away, even though they can have a full one if they want it. Adam* credits his wife, Eve*, for helping him eat better and weaning him off artificial sweetners. Adam* says he now has the libido of a 30 year old.

Isn't this just a wonderful story? I love stories like this at any time of year, but especially now, during the season of Love and Saint Valentine. It just goes to show you that it is never too late to find love and everyone can continue to enjoy an intimate love life, even later in life. The points: Eat right, enjoy each other, work with one another for a fulfilling relationship and buy your favorite lingerie at Naughty and Nice Lingerie to make it all even sweeter!
