Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Ashley Graham drops her latest plus size lingerie collection with Canadian plus size retailer, Addition Elle called the “La Scala Collection,” and it is hot! So, I must say, there are all kinds of innuendos that I could share, but to keep it clean, this shoot is segzy… I mean, who wouldn’t want to be sky high in a jet plane with a few segzy men while you don your fancy chonies?
“The sexy design of the La Scala Collection by ADDITION ELLE captures Ashley’s confidence and allure,” says Roslyn Griner, ADDITION ELLE’s Vice President of Marketing and Visual Display. “Women will feel empowered every time they wear a piece from this collection.”
Quite frankly, everything Ashley Graham rocks makes me feel that I too, can feel and look segzy. It is something about her that does that for me! And with the La Scala Collection, I imagine this collection to do this for me too… I mean, I may not board a plane, but I can fancy a special trip with one of these looks worn underneath it all when I see my boo friend. IJS.
The La Scala Collection features a combination of hot pink and black, that, according to Addition Elle and Ashley, “are the epitome of seduction.”
Add to the fact that all bras come cheekily matched with a golden lock at the center while the panties that have a matching golden key charm. Ha! Talk about Lock and Key! I used to have this painting entitled this… but that is another conversation and another part of my life that I will have to share later…
“The Bright Rose Mesh and Lace Balconet bra and matching thong feature this color scheme and showcase the power of allure.”
“The Bodysuit is a sexy staple in the collection with racy garters and mesh panels highlighting women’s curves this piece will keep all lovers captivated.”
The La Scala Collection Deets:
Wonder if this collection will cater to your girls? Wellllll… Bra sizes range from 36DD-DDD; 38C – 42 DDD; 44 C – DD; 36-42 G/H depending on the style and her chemise bodysuits and panties range in size from X-3X. Oh and the collection ranges from $30.00 to $95.00!
This 12 piece La Scala Collection by Ashley Graham for Addition Elle, will officially hit stores this February (next week) and will be available at select Nordstrom Stores, www.nordstrom.com and www.additionelle.com.
Oh, and YOU KNOW honey did a video… Take a peek:
Now, I must add… it does not matter if you are booed up or not! I like to rock fancy chonies and sets throughout the day, week, and year, especially when I am feelin’ myself! Don’t you? Regardless of your relationship status, donning a few fancy frocks underneath it all is definitely a great way to start the day!
But given the Holiday season upon us, what a better way to show yourself andddd your loved one some love!

A lingerie brand is being praised for using a curvy teenager to model their latest line – and she’s been touted as a ‘normal-sized’ lingerie model .
Barbie Ferreira is a US size 12 – a 16 here in the UK – and is celebrating her size by appearing un-retouched in the campaign just launched by Aerie, a lingerie off-shoot of American Eagle.
The 19-year-old is the face of their new AerieReal ad campaign, and she’s appeared in this striking video explaining how she feels about her body image.
Barbie, who has been dubbed the “Queen of in-between” and boasts more than 200,000 Instagram followers, is in the ‘the real you is sexy’ campaign.

The Wilhelmina Models girl is also fairly forthright about shape and size on her Twitter feed.
Post as Bored Barbara, she said this week: “I have to remind myself that people are so cruel about bodies because they never see average bodies on their screens and it’s new to them.”

She went on to discount their comments, posting: “I don’t really care much about what they say except just super inaccurate s*** like I’m promoting obesity. What?!? I’m not close to medically obese.”
Then she added: “Which isn’t necessarily bad either but my body is super average – it’s a size 12. I work out, I eat extremely healthy – I live my life.”

She explains in the Aerie video: “I am unapologetically myself, no matter what anyone’s opinion is.
“Not being retouched in the images is something that’s very important to me – people knowing that, that’s what I look like without anyone’s perception of what my body needs to look like.”
The online response so far has been overwhelming positive.
@boredbarbara Thank you for not perpetuating the irresponsible and unattainable photo-shopped body types in most mags. You are beautiful!

In an interview last November, Barbie said she was unhappy with the “inaccurate” terms “plus size”, and gave Instagram her stamp of approval for offering a “raw, uncensored platform” for women to model.
“I’m not plus size,” she says. “I have never bought an article of clothing that is plus size.”
According to Business Insider , Aerie’s sales increased 18 per cent in the second quarter of 2015, compared to just 3 per cent at Victoria’s Secret.
Aerie is available online at aeo.com or in all American Eagle Outfitters stores in the UK (including Westfield London, Westfield Stratford and Bluewater Kent).
