So we have been trying to keep it under our fascinators but its just too exciting!!!  We sent some of our favourite pieces (the stunning Fifi Chachnil braces knickers and Kiera leather cape, to mention just a few) over to New York recently for a photo shoot with the amazing Christina Aguilera ! She has been busy posing and pouting beautifully for her new Album Cover. Imagine our excitement when we heard some of our gorgeous goodies were actually used. Oh my lord, whether we make it to the Album Cover remains to be seen yet but we havent stopped swooning yet with the thought of it.  Pass the smelling salts ..

At Bordello after a hard day's slog fitting East London ladies in ravishing lingerie, we like nothing better than to relax with a sherry or two and a copy of The Erotic Review. Stimulating the old grey matter as way as other parts the sherry cannot reach, this saucy rag is full of tales by hard hitting journos and writers who like nothing better than sharing their racy imaginations with us mere mortals. In fact, we love it so much that we now have added it to our Literary corner at Bordello. At £3 a pop, it's a right good read!

Today a budding journalist asked me the following question which I thought I would share with you:

In your opinion, are stockings for everyday use (maybe to help complete a specific vintage look) or more for special occasions?

Those of you who have been to a Bordello Salon lately will have sampled this truly wicked chocolate by Feeding Your Imagination. Well we have for you a recipe of pure indulgence ! So, don your pinnies and get baking! This cake is just so melt in the mouth, the chocolate sponge is simple yet so sensual, each mouthful along with a delicate pouring of double cream is so wrong but somehow so damn right!!

And after eating a rather large portion we suggest you just pop into Bordello for some tightlacing into a beautiful Bordello corset to tuck away those extra inches and look as glamorous and shapely as always! Yes you can eat chocolate cake and still go to the Hallowe'en Ball!!

We Bordello girls almost shed a little tear last week as we had to kiss goodbye to our favourite crepe embroidered Japanese vintage kimono. It was just sooooo pretty !! But there was some consolation in that it went to a  lovely new home and shall be adorning the fabulous Bat for Lashes!! What more can we ask for. With that in mind, we packaged it lovingly in gold paper sealed with a kiss and off it went to its new home .. maybe we will get to see it in a video one day .. sob .. sniff ..

Thursday night saw the first of our Midori Salons and what a fabulously entertaining workshop it was. If only all my teachers were this much fun I might just have studied harder at school! Mind you, the subject matter was bound to hold our interest: how to love and lick your partners manhood!

Authority and famed educator on adventurous sexuality, Midori is a frontrunner for liberated women around the world. A regular writer for Men's Health with features in Vogue and Playboy, Midori has earned herself a cult following and we can see why. This workshop was insightful, interactive and full of humour and worked its way through sexual techniques, toys and props to help you lend a hand to your fella in the bedroom, or kitchen or living room for that matter.

All ladies should take a lesson from Midori. This salon is not to be missed. Keep your eyes peeled for details of the forthcoming salons.

We’re used to naked people behaving like porn stars but having a motionless, basically naked, girl in front of you doing nothing to manipulate desire is a step up from sexual, it’s beautiful. Artist I am not, but it was fun to have a go at capturing our aesthetic design in the inimitably calm and creative environment of David Carter’s 40 winks ‘the most beautiful small hotel in the world’ (according to German Vogue).
