Leg Art Competition: Win a £100 Joanna's Wardrobe Gift Voucher!

Image001

Inspired by a Facebook Friend who liked this photo on my Leg Art page and wondered if I might like to use a similar image featuring herself and her husband, I’m running a competition with a prize of a £100 Joanna’s Wardrobe Gift Voucher for the best Leg Art inspired photo.  Photos don’t have to be new or recent, but the competition will run until the end of September 2011 so you have plenty of time to play around with that camera. And if your creativity really gets flowing then you can enter more than one photo!

Images must be 500 px wide by 750 px tall or larger - but they must be in the same ratio, i.e. portrait style, otherwise I will have to crop them which may spoil the effect.  You images should be emailed to joanna@joannaswardrobe.com by 30th September, and if you have any questions about the competition please send them to that address too.

All photos must either be your property or be given freely with permission from the photographer. I will need the email address and/or website details for all images by professional photographers especially if they are copyrighted -  I’m happy to attribute images to models and photographers and to display links to their sites if they’d like me to.  

If you wish to remain anonymous that can also be arranged, but I won’t accept photos with faces obscured using Photoshop or other image manipulation software - use back views and imaginative camera angles and be careful what’s in the background!

In any case, please make sure that you get the permission of everyone in your photo because the top nine entries will be displayed on a new Ideas and Inspiration page on the Joanna’s Wardrobe website which will be linked to on associated Blogs, Flickr, Twitter and Facebook in October 2011 and runner-up images may be used in those media as well.

And best of all the winner will receive a £100 Joanna’s Wardrobe Gift Voucher - just in time for Christmas!

Good luck and have fun!

Back in Stock! Black Vargas Dress by Kiss Me Deadly

Just arrived back in stock in all sizes is the sell-out Kiss Me Deadly black Vargas girdle dress.  In my opinion the Vargas dress, a sexy 6 strap corselette is a definite essential garment for any girl’s wardrobe.

New images of Stockings & Romance red & black Secret bodyshaper

Last Sunday I spent a fabulous day with Nicole from the Hourglass and the gorgeous Catt Heels shooting some of next season’s lingerie collections and fabulous swimwear. We also took the opportunity to re-shoot some of our very popular current lines. In record time Nicole has already sent me fabulous images of the red and black Secret bodyshaper by Stockings & Romance worn with Playful Promises black Jasmine knickers  and What Katie Did black retro seamed stockings. These fabulous Secret bodyshapers are particular popular with men buying for their ladies as not only do they look sexily stunning but are sized from extra small to X3 and not bra sized so make it a lot easier for them not to get it wrong.
