The Ultimate in Lounge Wear

Rock Bottoms was suggested as something that our readers would be interested in, and after researching them a bit, I was a bit apprehensive to recommend an intimates line made of a bamboo fabric. I always figured that bamboo was one of the last things I wanted in my underwear...Well, I was SO wrong. We just received a sample of the Rock Bottoms intimates line and we are in LOVE!

Rock Bottoms is an intimates, or lounge wear, line that takes it's inspiration from the rebellious and independent soul of rock and roll. Each piece is influenced by a classic rock and roll song, which is either directly quoted on the garment or is eluded to through images. Another thing that has Rock Bottoms standing out in the sea of intimates lines, is their interesting choice of fabric. I never thought I'd see a bamboo/cotton/spandex blend fabric, let alone love it. The fabric is incredible soft and has the perfect amount of stretch for a snug, but very comfortable fit.

The Rock Bottoms line is small and they currently carry six different styles for women and three styles for men. Men's boxers are quite affordable at $19, while the womens sets start at $56.

Trend Watch - Fall 2006

Time for a trend watch! Here are some of the hottest trends that are about to hit:

Grey Denim

Grey is the new blue...at least when it comes to denim. Grey is the next trend for jeans and any shade of grey will do. Another denim trend is the death of skinny jeans. Yay! I can't say that I'm sad to see skinny jeans head back to the 80's.





Kimono Sleeves

Kimono sleeve are going to be big this season. You'll see them on dresses as well as tops and they will be accompanying many different styles from dressy to casual. My favorite are kimono mini dresses and I have yet to find them on the shelves. Oh, but they will come, mark my words!



Cinch Belts

Cinch belts are probably the strongest trend right now and this one is going to be around for a while. You'll see cinch belts in every style/color/fabric imaginable, within the next few months.


Black and White

Black and white color combinations are also making a huge comeback. This trend morphed from all the sailor stripes we endured over the summer and now it is mutating into a full blown retro glamour trend. We'll be seeing a lot of black/white in evening wear and dresses.
