Chained to an Aga and Don Draper

I was reading an article, a snippet really, in an old copy of Style, written by Camilla Long, one of the Sunday Times emerging stars (in my opinion anyway). It was about ladies' underwear as marketed by Victoria's Secret and in particular one of their models who made some comment about all you need to get your man is sexy underwear. Clearly Long, with her obvious intellect, suspected that some girls - and men - might like to think there could be more to it than that.

In an obvious put down for the model who'd made the comment, Long said she could imagine her 'chaining herself to the Aga, dressed only in expensive knickers and suspenders, Stepford Wives style, waiting for an imaginary Don Draper to come down off a whisky high and do the necessary' or words to that effect. Now, I don't want to take a side in this really I don't, and I certainly don't regard myself a Stepford Wives type, but the thought of being chained up to the Aga in classy knickers and stockings 



waiting for Mr Draper to, ahem, attend to me did have a certain appeal. 



Only trouble is we don't have an Aga.

Back home later.

Victoria's Secret coming to UK



My husband told me, I didn't know it myself, he sent me a link to an article and told me great, more choice for you, competition should keep prices down. Apparently they're starting off with as store in Bond Street then adding one a few days later in a London shopping centre then see how it goes.

"Thanks, P," I said, "but how did you come by this knowledge of women's lingerie stores?"

"Ah, that would be telling, I like to keep track of things not just boring stuff," he said, obviously pleased with himself for spotting something which might interest me.

"No really, did you just happen to see the article?"

"To be honest, in the same article there's a piece about Agent Provocateur and google pinged me because of that, I've got some shares in the owning company, 3i, you see. They make some nice marketing videos." He's right there, Agent Provocateur do some lovely classy videos often with a S&M undercurrent.

"Oh, boring boring, and I though maybe you'd been searching for a little present for me or something." My husband smiled.

Ah well, a girl can hope.

So ladies, please tell me what do you think of Victoria's knickers, are they of good quality, sexy, not too thick, provocative perhaps, which will aid and abet me in enticing my lord and master to deal with me?
