Last month, AOTG displayed a few of our favorite pieces from the Agent Provocateur swimwear 2009 collection. To promote both AP’s spring and summer collection, a video look book was created to showcase the seductive lingerie pieces. The video features a brief clip that shows the audience of AP’s direction with their Siren collection and really provides the true meaning of a seductress and femme fatale in the form of classy lingerie. If you haven’t already had the chance to view this beautiful set and video coordination, i suggest you take a few minutes to brace yourself and enjoy it.
Video look book here. Shop AP Siren collection here.

Since it’s one of the hottest days Boston has had in a while, the AOTG girls are thinking about bathing suits! We have done some research and picked out some our favorite suits- with all different price points. Starting at top left- going right: first is the the Tropical Leaf Monokini only $22.80 at Forever 21 stores & online, next the Aqua Net Print Binki by b. Swimwear- the pattern is available in 4 different tops & 5 different bottoms ranging from $46-$54 per-piece at shopbkb.com, next the Colorblock tuquoise & lime green biniki comes with a bandeau top for $22 & a low-rise bottom for $14 at Victoria’s Secret, next the Betsey Johnson “Rockin Robin” two-piece bandeau $82 for the bikini top and $98 for the ruffled bikini bottom from Bloomingdales, the Xhilaration Jane – Multicolor Plaid two-piece from Target and only $14.99 per-piece… such a deal, last but not least is the Etzu Monokini with removable straps by Aqua di Lara for $248 at swimwearboutique.com.
I think I need this!!! The new Knot-back Maillot suit designed by Cala Ossidiana for their summer 09 collection, is probably one of the sexist one-pieces you will see. From the intricate bondage knots up the back to the low cut deep-v in the front, the suit is designed highlights your cruves. Available online, the suit retails for $295 and comes in black, bright turquoise, lapis and navy. Click here to purchase.
When Marty’s Liquors in Allston permanently closed after 60 years of business many Allstonians were left heartbroken and dismayed. A landmark at the corner of Harvard and Commonwealth Avenue, at the foot of the T station and the 66 busline, there was always Marty’s. Now, what once was has become another vacant storefront- a reminder of the current economic situation and the gentrification of Allston. Amongst those residents saddened by the loss was Shayna Shenanigans, founder of “Paint Pens in Purses“, an all-female urban art collective.
In response to the loss, the ladies of “Paint Pens in Purses” sought out the Hamilton Realty Group to see if they could temporarily utilize the dead space as a pop-up gallery, in an attempt to reclaim and reinvigorate the infamous space. The idea was well-received and with the approval of the Hamilton Company, set to commence on April 21st, 2009. The artists, which span a multitude of mediums, plan to use the fifteen 7ftx5ft window display boxes of the large storefront as art displays.
Confirmed artists include: Silver Oris, Kim Harris (of LAB), tofusquirrel, Molly David, Morgan Thomas, Casey Williams, Mykim Dang and Nineta. For more info on the artists and “Paint Pens in Purses” please click here.
Take Over coming soon!…April 21st, 2009 – Ex Marty’s Liquors (aka Paint Pens Pop Up Gallery!!) 193 Harvard Ave, Allston MA. For another article on Paint Pens, written by our friends over at OPEN- click here.
They are finally here! Mishka just released their new Ladies Spring 09″ collection featuring one of my favorite pieces the “Keep Watch Leggings”. I saw these almost a year ago at the very early stage of production and have been in love with them since. You can check the whole spring collection here and LAB Boston will also be getting in the ladies gear this week.
