La Belle Epoque – The Vibe

As the court case around the impossibly unlikely lothario, Dominique Strausse-Kahn, falls apart due to the compromised character of the hotel-maid/victim (it seems she was working double shifts servicing the hotel guestrooms and, where possible, the male hotel guests also. Her marriage to a Gambian drug dealer similarly does nothing to improve her case!), it seems the golden hour of the maid fantasy will dissolve into obsolescence once more! The one thing which we can conclusively take from this case is concrete evidence that world leaders, political or economic, are strong devotees of classical roleplay fantasies – DSK fell for the comely charms of his chambermaid (little did he know he was expected to pay for her company), while the ever scandalous Silvio Berlusconi found himself in water which was hotter than ever before when his ‘admiration’ of the underage north african bellydancer, Ruby the Heartbreaker, became public!

Obviously I do not condone the use of prostitutes (agreed, it may be the world’s oldest profession…but that will never make it either moral or acceptable – amsterdam take note) and so called ‘bunga bunga’ parties with underage dancing girls are frankly foul…but, despite my thorough distaste at their choice of partners, i simply cannot fault their taste in fantasy! Roleplay is such a wonderful thing, yet for some reason the part we women are now being asked to play are just, excuse the language, fucking stupid! Can someone explain the allure of the following; cheerleaders, vampires, cartoon characters, footballers (for some reason a girl in a skin tight england shirt will tighten the trousers of many a man)…hell, i’ll even accept secretaries, firewomen, policewomen, air hostesses, nurses and pirates, but even these are a little immature aren’t they?? I do occasionally dress as some of these but only because my man likes it…but these roleplays do little for me!

I want us to take a leaf from the books of the world leaders and bring a little more tradition, history and genuine sex appeal to our roleplay by adjusting the characters we play. Surely the french maid is much more ravishing than Mrs Long John Silver, one must assume the eastern dancing girl has more talent with her clothes off than the barely legal cheerleader and I can only assume that the average man would much rather bed the innocence of the victorian strumpet than the kind of creepy undeadness of a bloodsucking bat/woman?! If our men won’t lead the way…then it’s up to us ladies, and that’s just fine by me!

Roleplay is one of the most popular fantasies that couples indulge in; it’s a real favourite and it offer amazing escapist sex. Yet so many people find that the reality of roleplay isn’t quite as euphoric as the fantasy. The reason is that most couples do roleplay in a half-hearted way; dressing up in a french maid outfit is good but it’s not enough, for roleplay to be as amazing as we will it to be, you need to believe in the character you are playing! Yes, wear the outift but you need to take it further, girls need to apply make up and do their hair in a new way to feel that they are an alternative self and not just themselves in fancy dress.

To help you develop your roleplay and enjoy it like you so want to, we have brought in Baci’s range of fantasy eyelashes. Made from the highest quality materials and offered in myriad designs from classical to crazy, these eyelashes are here to help you become your lover’s fantasy, to take their desires further than they could think possible. As an added bonus they can be matched to any outfit to update your style for a night on the town. See The Range…

So – we asked you to give us a sneak peak in to your sex life, in particular your toys. A few of you got back to us (with some whopping collections, I must say), but here is our winner for May.

Gina G is a 34 your old woman from London and has been married for 8 years.
“Sex toys are important to myself and my marriage as they add something a bit different and keeps us both interested and excited. We almost use them as a key to further exploration of each other and sex that we would not have felt comfortable with before. Sex toys give you so many options to pleasure you partner and we always use them together. We dont use toys every single time and we sometimes use toys on our own, although this is quite rare.
We first started using toys about 5 years ago and have never looked back – it has been rapidly growing ever since!. Fortunately we have been able to get some really nice looking toys and high quality toys which is important to me. My sex life has improved massively since I/we started using sex toys and my husband loves using them on me! There are so many toys out there that I want to give a go, but the ones I want seem to be super expensive!! I store my toys in the chest of drawers in a plain black box – Im petrified that one day someone will find them! ”

Gina’s First Toy: I Love the Lelo Nea. We use in between us with me on top and it works EVERY time! It is really easy to use and my husband loves it too. I have also used it in the shower on my own which was great. It is great for beginners and despite its shape, is surprisingly versatile! I was SO scared to show this to my partner, I bought it in London on teh way home from work and it came in a plain black bag – I kept it in the bag for about two weeks before I plucked up the courage to show him!

Gina Cannot Live Without: The Jimmyjane Iconic Pocket is by far the toy that we use the most. I think because it is so small and powerful it is always what seems to be pulled out of our box. It is great as both an actual vibrator but also as a simple massager. He also really likes the feeling on himself! This toy does seem to chew through batteries, but other than that is really good. I havent actually used this toy on my own – we consider it to be “our” toy, so I tend to save it for when we are together! I have had this toy for about a year and will always have this in my life!

Gina’s Newest Addition: The “dusty” dildo is the newest thing in the toy box, and my Husband bought it. I had said the night before that I dont see the fascination with dildos as you surely have to do all of the work yourself? Anyway, he decided to buy this one… It is really soft and flexible and it quite a cool product. However I just feel like dildos just aren’t for me. I felt like it did not do anything and was not as good as the real thing. However, I AM persevering!

Well, we are certainly jealous of Gina’s collection! Congratulations Gina, you have won a Jimmyjane Little Chroma! And for everyone else out there, if you want to enter our “Your Sex Life” feature and win yourself a toy that we think you need in your sex life, please email you photo and story to press@labelleuk.co.uk.

Ahh…after what seems like an infinite wait the nation’s, (my), favourite rubbish TV show has finally returned, and no before you even dream of thinking it I’m not talking about anything to do with Katie Price!! I wouldn’t be paid to watch that show…after years of isolation I seem to have been joined by the general public in a state of deep indifference to the highs and lows of that odious woman’s life! Despite her finest efforts to poison the nation it seems humanity has finally seen through the, Madame Tussauds-esque, exterior and turned their backs on her plight!

No I’m referring to The Only Way Is Essex!! Entertainment Bliss…mindless, depraved nonsense lived out by a Quasi-real cast of extreme stereotypes who enjoy nothing more than revelling in their own awesomeness, which is frankly non-existent! Yes Wednesday nights are now the realm of airheaded plastic fantastics and their lunkheaded love interests with whom they clash with greater frequency and intensity than sea and shore! Between them they poses less depth than a washbasin and more self obsessed arrogance than the newly unhinged Mr Sheen! All except from James Argent, fondly known to his nearest and dearest as Arg! Arg is a wonderful sincere chap who could not be more out of place on the show, and yes I may have a little crush!! (more…)

Rihanna wears Nippies Basics nipple covers with a sheer Jean Paul Gaultier gown at the 2011 Grammys. Caramel lace hearts leave just enough for the imagination, and coordinate perfectly with her outfit. The sheer trend is here to stay, and Nippies are stylish and functional coverage you won’t be embarrassed to show.
