			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As a general rule for most women, and I say most because there are some exceptions, you should refrain from buying your girlfriend, wife, or fiancé trashy lingerie nightwear. In most cases, women detest the lingerie nightwear that consists of crotchless panties, leather, vinyl or other trashy lingerie of that nature. If you think about it in women’s terms, (yes I know a woman’s mind is far too complicated, so just bear with me) a woman is not going to want to receive a gift of lingerie nightwear from her man that is so trashy she’d be afraid to let anyone see it, and would have a hard time getting rid of it as she would never want to be seen with it in her possession. She may also get the wrong message from you and be made to believe that you think of her as a woman who would wear something so low on the class scale and will probably get angry with you; and we all know you don’t want that.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-281" href="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/what-type-of-lingerie-nightwear-should-i-buy-her/nightwear-lingerie/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-281" title="nightwear lingerie" src="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/nightwear-lingerie.jpg" alt="nightwear lingerie" width="410" height="276" /></a></p>
<p>We’re going to continue speaking in “most” terms because of course there are always exceptions to the rule. So, most of the time, women like to receive lingerie nightwear that is girlie and delicate, yet makes them feel sexy. Tasteful is a key thing to keep in mind. A few good examples of acceptable Lingerie Nightwear would be a silky satin slip with a little lace or ribbon. Or a sexy, cute matching bra and underwear set. These types of lingerie nightwear are still sexy, but will make any woman much more comfortable in them, which in turn will boost her confidence making her sex appeal go way up. It’s truly a win-win situation. Stay away from the nylon and black leather unless you know for sure that it’s something she’s into. Otherwise she may send you running for the hills with your tail between your legs. Feminine and stylish: the two keywords to keep in mind when you are shopping for lingerie for the lady in your life.</p>
<p>So now I bet the question you’re asking is how do I go about finding and buying this type of lingerie nightwear? The answer is simple: if you’re not comfortable going to the mall and talking with the sales clerks about bras and panties, then just stay at home! There are hundreds if not thousands of online lingerie shops that specialize in lingerie nightwear and all sorts of other sexy lingerie. Many of the stores will also have sections that recommend what is in style right now and how to size up the woman you are buying for. They know that many men are searching in the dark when it comes to lingerie, so they have a lot of helpful tools made especially for men.</p>
<p>So the next time you would like to get that special woman in your life some Lingerie Nightwear, keep these tips in mind and remember to use the online lingerie stores as additional resources. You’d be surprised at how helpful they truly can be. Your lover will thank, and probably even thank you two or three times if you did really well.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the beginning of many relationships, the emotions run high, the lust you feel for one another is irresistible and every part of each other is a new adventure waiting to be discovered. There are no details left untouched from the perfect dinner, to the perfect evening spent in the bedroom. When it comes to the bedroom women do everything from buying <strong><a href="http://www.laurela.com/tags/10/sexy-lingerie" title="sexy lingerie">sexy lingerie</a></strong> to making sure their top drawer is stocked full with silk nightwear. Some women who are more risqué may have a variety of kinky nightwear to strike their lovers fancy, while other women may prefer the more innocent or “baby doll” look of innocent satin nightwear.</p>
<p><CENTER><a href="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/feel-sensual-in-silk-nightwear/nuisette-sexy-motif-serpent/" rel="attachment wp-att-312"><img src="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Nuisette-sexy-motif-serpent.jpg" alt="Nuisette sexy motif serpent" title="Nuisette sexy motif serpent" width="375" height="500" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-312" /></a></CENTER></p>
<p>Regardless of your tastes, or how hot a relationship started off as, after a relationship lasts longer than few months, those <strong>silk sexy nightwear</strong> numbers may be pushed to the back of the drawer only to be replaced with baggy tee-shirts and too-big sweatpants. The idea of looking sexy at night in women’s nightwear may no longer be a vivid image in your man’s mind; it may have just been replaced from something red hot to ice cold.</p>
<p><CENTER><a rel="attachment wp-att-245" href="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/feel-sensual-in-silk-nightwear/silk-nightwear/"><img class="size-full wp-image-245 aligncenter" title="silk nightwear" src="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/silk-nightwear.jpg" alt="silk nightwear" width="455" height="455" /></a></CENTER></p>
<p>The good news is there is always hope. If you’re concerned that your romantic nights with your partner have faded away to cozy nights on the couch snuggled up in sweatpants and baggy tee-shirts, there is always a simple solution to turning the heat back up in any romance.<br />
<CENTER><a href="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/feel-sensual-in-silk-nightwear/hearts-babydoll/" rel="attachment wp-att-313"><img src="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/hearts-babydoll.jpg" alt="hearts babydoll" title="hearts babydoll" width="400" height="587" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-313" /></a></CENTER><br />
If you’re the type of woman who prefers pretty in pink lace bras and panties, then something as simple as silk nightwear may be just the thing for you. You’ll not only look sexy in your satin nightwear, but you’ll also feel comfortable enough to let you true sexuality shine through.</p>
<p>Sexy nightwear ranges from kinky nightwear to naughty nightwear, to even silk and <strong>satin nightwear</strong>. There is something for everyone and every couples fantasies and desires can be fulfilled by choosing the right women’s nightwear.</p>
<p>If you’re comfortable shopping and trying on silky nightwear in one of the crowded public malls, then more power to you. If you’re one of the women who are not as comfortable getting down to your skivvies in a public place, then you’ll be relieved to know that there are hundreds of online lingerie stores that specialize in <strong>women’s nightwear</strong>. From kinky, naughty nightwear to satin and silk nightwear. Anything your heart desires you will be able to find at one of the hundreds of online lingerie shops, and getting lucky finding exactly what you want won’t be an issue.<br />
<CENTER><a href="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/feel-sensual-in-silk-nightwear/chiffon-halter-sleepwear-babydoll/" rel="attachment wp-att-314"><img src="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/chiffon-halter-sleepwear-babydoll.jpg" alt="chiffon halter sleepwear babydoll" title="chiffon halter sleepwear babydoll" width="595" height="800" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-314" /></a></CENTER><br />
Don’t let your love life fizzle away because of something as simple as your choices in nightwear. This is one of easiest ways to keep the sparks alive and the passion ablaze in the sexual aspect of your relationship. There are all kinds of <strong>womens nightwear</strong> to suit all kinds of sexual desires and fantasies. Try something new; who knows, maybe the kinky nightwear will take a front seat to the silk nightwear; at least once in awhile!</p>

<p>After party online caught up with one of our exquisite lingerie designers Sally Jones to ask how the designer lingerie business has been affected during the current global economic climate and what the future holds for this exclusive, exciting Australian lingerie label.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Call me an urbanist, but somehow the Madawaska River Valley wasn’t the place I’d expected to find someone designing sexy sleepwear for brides and middle-aged women.<br />
And that surprise was doubled when I drove into the designer’s yard, crowded with broken-down trucks and tractors awaiting the tender ministrations of her mechanically minded husband. Yet the Valley is where Maryanne MacDougal’s heart is, not to mention her considerable and ever helpful network of friends and extended family. And it’s where she has staked out what is arguably one of Canada’s fastest growing apparel companies. You can’t buy Afterparty Special Occasion Lingerie in the shops in tiny nearby Burnstown, but you can find it in 42 boutiques across Ontario (including Marianne’s and Cleopatra’s Secret in Ottawa), 14 in British Columbia, 10 in Alberta and four in<br />
Saskatchewan. And that’s after just a year and a half in business.</p>
<div id="attachment_60" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 209px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-60" href="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/sexy-nightwear-from-the-valley/bridal01/"><img class="size-medium wp-image-60" title="Bridal Nightwear" src="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/bridal01-199x300.jpg" alt="Bridal Nightwear" width="199" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Bridal Nightwear</p></div>
<p>“I don’t know what draws me to it, I really don’t,” says MacDougal, 46, of the love affair she’s had with lingerie design since graduating from George Brown College in the 1970s. “It’s just something that I loved. I’m fascinated by construction.” And while there’s little construction in the sexy sleepwear<br />
that’s her trademark, “if it’s cut right, it’s very flattering. I’m just fascinated by the way that works.”<br />
And work they do. These are beautiful pieces that both enhance and disguise. No tiny triangles and teensy thongs, but sexy nonetheless in that teasing, just-a-hint way that makes a woman more alluring than in clothes that leave nothing to the imagination. There are vintage-look peignoirs (remember<br />
peignoirs?) short and long to wear with pretty nighties, also short and long, and cami tops to wear with<br />
pyjama bottoms. Some sets whisper “bedroom” or “honeymoon” while others are sophisticated enough to host a dinner party in.<br />
“Loungewear is coming back into vogue,” says MacDougal. “My stuff is quite loungy looking. It’s not so much for sleeping but more just for looking good and feeling good.”<br />
For MacDougal, the past 18 months have been a heady — and terrifying — time. Afterparty is her first venture on her own, although she has 23 years of experience in the design business, including stints working with Pakenham designer Paddye Mann and Ottawa bridal designer Justina McCaffrey.</p>
<p>She began her career working for Toronto designer Claire Haddad, whose clients included actress Elizabeth Taylor. “She was my mentor,” says MacDougal. “I just adored her. I think she’s the reason I stayed in this business.”</p>
<div id="attachment_61" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 204px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-61" href="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/sexy-nightwear-from-the-valley/fall-holiday-2007-001/"><img class="size-medium wp-image-61" title="Fall Holiday 2007" src="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Fall-Holiday-2007-001-194x300.jpg" alt="Fall Holiday 2007" width="194" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Fall Holiday 2007</p></div>
<p>In the uncertain world of fashion design, MacDougal frequently found herself out of work, but never for long. Besides Haddad, she worked for Lady Madonna, a high-end lingerie company in Toronto, created swimwear for Murray Kates, designed lingerie for Liliana Mann (who nowowns a chain of exclusive stores in the U.S.) and Kaiser &amp; Van Raalte, and worked on workout wear for Gilda Marx.</p>
<p>It was while working for Marx that she met her husband, Tim. He was from the Valley, and one of the conditions of marrying him was that she would have to leave her hometown of Toronto and move to his great-aunt’s old home just outside Burnstown.<br />
“His family is all from the Valley and it was part of the deal,” she laughs 15 years later. “He’d bought this property before I met him. There used to be an old house here and it had been in his family for 100 some-odd years.” Even in the Valley, though, there was work for a talented lingerie designer.<br />
She found a job at the Ottawa lingerie company Silkwear (now out of business), then with Paddye Mann and McCaffrey. It was after she left McCaffrey’s that MacDougal began to think about creating sleepwear for brides. Whilebridal gowns had morphed from big puffy princess gowns to a more sleek,<br />
sophisticated look, thanks to the influence of top designers like Vera Wang, the sleepwear side was still “really kind of icky,” she says. “I wanted it to be more modern, kind of a younger look and a bit more paying attention to what was going on in fashion and the cut.”<br />
<a rel="attachment wp-att-62" href="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/sexy-nightwear-from-the-valley/fall-holiday-2007-002/"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-62" title="Fall Holiday 2007" src="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Fall-Holiday-2007-002-199x300.jpg" alt="Fall Holiday 2007" width="199" height="300" /></a>There’s a huge market for other bridal lingerie — foundation garments like bras, corsets and panties —<br />
but it has become so high-tech it would be next to impossible for a small business to compete, MacDougal says. “Just the machinery you need to compete with Victoria’s Secret and La Senza — everything’s moulded, seamless. They must have machines that can punch them out.”<br />
Still, she didn’t act until a friend who owns a store in Burnstown asked her to create some samples she could display in her shop. “It went from there. Now I’ve got reps from Vancouver, I do really well in Alberta because the economy’s so good and I’ve got stores in Toronto. It’s a product that<br />
was missing.”<br />
But you can’t buy it in Burnstown anymore; the prices are too high, MacDougal says. “It has to be. I feel it’s the only way I can survive in the Canadian marketplace as a domestic manufacturer.” She uses silk, chiffon and high-quality Japanese polyester satin (“like silk but not like cheap Chinese shiny silk”) and suggested retail prices start at $62 for a satin camisole and $300 for a peignoir in silk. It’s a price-point that puts her in the same market as Vancouver lingerie designer Patricia Fieldwalker, whose work is worn in Hollywood.</p>
<div id="attachment_63" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 214px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-63" href="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/sexy-nightwear-from-the-valley/fall-holiday-2007-003/"><img class="size-medium wp-image-63" title="Fall Holiday 2007" src="http://www.afterpartyonline.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Fall-Holiday-2007-003-204x300.jpg" alt="Fall Holiday 2007" width="204" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Fall Holiday 2007</p></div>
<p>These days her house is evidence of MacDougal’s success. The dining room has been turned into a cutting room, and a small anteroom is her office and sewing room. She cuts out every garment herself, ships the pieces to Ottawa for sewing, then getsthem back so she can do the quality control. A gaggle of friends and family, including her daughters Taryn, 12, and Alida, 15, help with the packing, sorting and shipping. But MacDougal’s not lounging on her laurels. For the coming fall, she has created a new line for older women — well, not so old, just older than a typical bride. “That’s another area that’s been neglected. Older women want beautiful lingerie, but they don’t want to look like Britney Spears. This aging demographic is a huge market.”<br />
This line is more sophisticated and varied than her bridal line. She frequently combines two fabrics — black poly cuddle satin with silk brocade by designer Suzie Wong, for example — and the sets offer enough coverage and style for a night out. In fact, MacDougal plans to take a long crinkle satin nightgown from the collection to wear out to dinner when she goes to Hawaii for a holiday with<br />
her husband.<br />
With so much on the go, it’s no surprise the MacDougals plan to expand their house. An addition on the back will provide a ground-floor in-law suite for his parents and an upstairs studio for Afterparty.<br />
MacDougal has other plans too — perhaps adding some bamboo knits to the line (“environmentally  friendly, really soft and apparently cooler to wear than cotton, naturally antibacterial — qualities that make it perfect for sleepwear”) and maybe a lastminute nightgown for her newest collection that will incorporate small flutter sleeves like those on the dress actress Helen Mirren wore to the Golden Globe Awards in January.<br />
Whatever she does, MacDougal knows she can count on her friends and family for support. It’s why designing sleepwear in Burnstown makes such sense. “I don’t believe I can’t have this,” she says, waving her hand toward the cutting room, “and the lifestyle. I just don’t believe I can’t have both.”</p>
