Kinky Knickers makers in administration


It was an email my husband sent me on Saturday morning, he was at the office but he'd spotted it in quick read of the morning business headlines, he quipped 'maybe you'd like to buy some cheap stock to sell online'. I opened the link to the Guardian article and saw it was a Mary Portas involvement, which put me off right away because, as I've said before on here, I don't rate her I think she failed as the so called 'High Street Queen' and now it seems as the 'kinky knickers queen'.

But there's a market for good quality sensual erotic knickers (I wouldn't use the word kinky) as long as they fit well and I hope the firm behind the lingerie find someone who can turn them round, for the sake of the staff if nothing else. I like nice knickers, I like them to feel good, fit well and look good too even though they are only likely to get an audience of one, if you exclude me (apart from the rare occasion when I recklessly expose myself on here). I used to buy Elle but her range has changed fit-wise or seems to have, I've checked out Agent Provocateur but only bought a couple of times, the reality didn't match up to the videos, there really is a gap in the market.

I suppose my take on knickers might be skewed a bit by my husband's assertion over many years that the type of knickers I'm wearing can have a significant influence on the way he spanks me. I try to make a mental note of the ones that go with the hardest spankings and buy more less of that type. At the end of the day I'd say any 'kink' must be in the mind of the wearer and the eye of the beholder and I don't mind that at all.

Have a good week.

(and no, Mary wasn't producing knickers like the ones in the photo, if she had maybe the administrators wouldn't have been called in)

Hi
A mix up with your Mary's ?

Mary Portas and Mary Whitehouse perhaps?

Anyway - I agree the knickers can often dictate the spanking.
My wife doesn't take the spankings but what she is wearing will frequently indicate what I am about to receive.

Hi Ronnie,

I agree, I like nice knickers that feel and look good and fit well too. Interesting how the knickers we are wearing dictate the spanking isn't it?

Hugs,
Roz

Morning Ronnie, is that fire I feel in your tone. :)
I have a big smile right now because the other day my spouse and I were watching a movie, and the actor used the word kickers. My wife responded knickers? I started laughing, sometimes she catches me off guard with her innocence of things. I had to explain it to her....
Anyway, I'm with you on the fit and feel part. When I buy my wife panties, I have to feel the fabric and elastic before I buy them, sometimes the clerks look at me funny because of the way I inspect them. But I know it will be a wast of my time f they don't meet her standards. It took me many years to get her out of plain baggy Knickers, because she didn't like the cut of the fancy ones. And yes, the visual of how they fit on your romp, really get our attention...

Michael - :) Thanks. Was in a bit of a rush this morning.

Roz - Think its time to invest in some new knickers:) Thanks.

1MV - I agree about having to feel the fabric and I always try them on in store, they have to fit perfectly. You know me and my knickers:) I rarely buy on line. Thanks.

Love,
Ronnie

Women take a great deal deliberation in selecting their knickers/panties, for dates, spanking parties and such. Bless them. I have always felt the knickers tell me what type of spanking they want.

Around home, Bacall has panties that she wears when she wants a spanking and she makes sure that I know she has them on.

Hermione said...

I love shopping for new panties, and although the sexy ones look ever so inviting, I usually choose the kind that fit best and feel comfortable.

Hugs,
Hermione

I do feel pretty and feminine when I wear fancy underclothes... :-) Hugs

Ronnie-
Love your writing style! BTW,just curious...what kind of knickers are they that cause the BEST,oh sorry, I mean WORST spankings? ;)

Ami Starsong said...

Golly those Mary Portas knickers were awful weren't they? And quite expensive for what they were.

I make no apologies for being the knicker queen around here. Knickers for every occasion - and I MEAN every occasion! I just wish my bottom was twenty years younger!

You are right - knickers have to be well cut and well made; nicely finished seams etc. They need to be sexy, comfortable and practical, fit the occasion and feel good under different items of clothing. I think I have knickers of just about every variety and love them all, except for the couple of pairs of the "cheese-wire" type, which I find horribly uncomfortable and unsexy.

For me, knickers have to flirt with their contents, in a way that causes a glint to form in the eye of the observer. (In my case that observer is Dan, or anyone who happens along if I get knocked down by a bus! LOL!)

Hugs
Ami

OBB - We girls have to find just the right pair. I remember Bacall found a lovely pair but shipping to the UK was more than the knickers cost. Thanks.

Hermione - Some sexy ones are too frilly for me and I know P wouldn't like them. Thank you.

Terps - Matching or not. We (grl friends) had a conversation about that the other day. Thanks.

NS - Full fitting, silky and not too fancy seems to work for P:) Thanks.

Ami - And nothing kinky about them at all. Be fun to go knicker shopping with you. My cheese wires have long gone:) Thanks.

Love,
Ronnie

Ray would love it if I dressed like the picture all the time. Doesn't happen so when it does he appreciates it. Otherwise, as long as I don't wear "granny" panties, he's a happy man.

This clothing has a virtue: it doesn't warms, doesn't cover, and it enhances and improves skin.

Hi Ronnie, perhaps we should have a joint venture, I am sure all of us bloggers are experts on knickers. Could we not run this company back into profit!!
love Jan.xx

ronnie said...

SG - I like to wear lovely underwear for P but they have to be comfortable and fit me or it wouldn't work.

Josep - Thank you.

Love,
Ronnie

One of my favorite types of KNICKERS Ronnie, is the old-fashioned type called 'DIRECTOIRE KNICKERS. Worn in by-gone days in the Victorian and Edwardian eras. They cover a naughty woman's bare bottom so beautifully and I love to pull them down slowly by its elastic band at the top. Wow ! they sure turn me on sexually and erotically.

ronnie said...

SOTB - I've never worn a pair but did consider them once. Thanks.

Love,
Ronnie
