Oh no, he left not to return

Hello everyone, I am delighted to be able to participate in another weekend engagement, we are going for #102 and here I leave you the link for you to choose your option.

Before I answer my choice for this weekend, I want to tell you that many years ago, when I was still young, my hair was very thick and abundant, plus I wore it mid-back, so it was a bit long, and for that reason it always looked like I was disheveled and unkempt, plus I wasn't much time to fix it, so I repeated over and over again that I had to get out a brush to dry my hair. I explained it better, I wanted a round brush that would generate heat like a hairdryer, but in one product, so it would be easier and faster to be presentable. The years went by and the hair straightener came to help beautify women, but it wasn't the most comfortable solution for me (I bought it anyway).

A few years ago someone listened to my thoughts and designed the electric brush to straighten hair, when I saw it for the first time the first thing I did was to tell my daughter that when I was young I dreamed of something like this, two products in one, brush and dryer. It's hard to believe, but I haven't bought it ha ha ha, when I want to look my best I use the flat iron.

Now I'm going to take a quick tour of my nightstand, currently it helps me carry a moisturizer, splash, exfoliator, styling cream, comb, comb, hair ties, nail file, TV control, reading glasses, cell phone and charger. The more intimate products I do not have on display out of respect for my daughter, she comes into my room as often as she wants and sometimes we watch a movie together.

Responding to the commitment I choose... The Missing Product

It was the year 2008, when one day walking through a shopping mall in my beloved hometown I visited for the first time an intimate apparel store that was in fashion, all the women commented... You already went to La Senza, You saw what colors and models more daring, They opened a new store, They have offers, and so many more. The stores were tastefully decorated, the staff wore impeccable uniforms and had a very special way with customers. At the checkout, when the garments were paid, each one of them was wrapped in silk paper, delicately placed in an elegant bag with the logo of the store and they added some kind of rhinestones to give it a special touch.

That day I was in the company of my mother and daughter, we spent almost two hours choosing and trying on bras until we made our first purchase. The prices were not cheap, but they were within my reach. That day my life changed ha, ha, ha, ha, I became a fan of La Senza intimate apparel, every week I bought, I took advantage of the offers of 5 panties and 5 bras in almost every opportunity. Aside from being beautiful, that particular underwear flattered the female figure, in my case that I am 100% natural (I have not gone through the surgeon) highlighted my attributes, it made me feel like a plus size model, it was the first time I found an underwear that fit perfectly to my body.

I remember my good friend, the one who was in my divorce process, telling me not to spend so much on those things, why 5 panties and not 2, for example, she was more careful than me with the expenses. I got to have 3 panties for the same bra. Several years went by like that, but the purchasing power was lost and I stopped buying so often, then it was unaffordable for me and I opted for another brand, but as we say in my country, it was not even up to the ankles, it was not the right size, nothing was equal to La Senza. After that stores were closing, the country's situation affected everyone, including large retailers, I remember the last time I went into one of the few stores that remained, I could only buy a bra for my daughter, they had very little merchandise and all small sizes.

Today all the stores are closed, La Senza left Venezuela. So far I have not found a substitute that meets my expectations; however, I have bought other brands, because intimate apparel, like all clothing in general, wears out and needs to be renewed.
But there is still something good, as I made so many purchases.

I still have 2 sets of unused panties and bra, when the economy changed and I realized that I could not buy as before, I did not use everything I had at the same time and that is why I keep those 2 specials. I will find the right time to use them.

This is all my dear colleagues, if you have something to say, I will be glad to read it.

I say goodbye as always, wishing you good vibes 💞

Hey there, thanks for the tour of your nightstand.

You know, when I did this particular question I didn't expect anyone to answer it, but it's been quite popular and I think that's really cool.

On the intimate apparel thing...I'm not a girl so don't know exactly what feel a woman gets from such clothing although I believe it makes a woman feel more womanly, more confident maybe? (Knowing what they have on underneath.) I don't really know, just surmising.

I am a man though, and can confidently say that it's legit. I mean, all that thin, see through, filmy, stringy stuff that doesn't cover much at all. Just being honest. 😃


I really appreciate this post, not just for you taking the time to do it, but to lay it out so well, take so much care with its presentation, and of course, the content.

Nightstands hold part of our intimacy, not everyone is willing to be so open but I'm glad you dared, I've read several of the posts.
You described very well what we women can feel with a good intimate apparel , it generates security and confidence even if in the end it ends up on the floor.(In some cases).
That's why I miss that brand, if they were to come back I would run to the first store I found to buy again.
Thank you very much for your comment, I love this community and the truth these engagements are great, I don't know where the ideas come from, but I admire the creativity every week.

It's good to have you here and I hope you'll come back again.

Also...on the floor. Yes, that happens huh? 😀

We will read each other often.
Yes, on the floor or wherever it falls 😂

Hi Lis

Thanks for a smashing post, I enjoyed this because I know the brand La Sensa. I made one purchase there, but they were too expensive for me in general. I always enjoyed looking at their new stock in the windows though.

I actually have a very similar story to yours about another brand that went bang. Perhaps I should share it as my post. I bought a bra of that make when I was a teenager and I still have it. It is still in good condition all these years later - that's quality for you.

Have a lovely day

Here La Senza generated euphoria, I was able to buy until 2016 and what I still have I keep very carefully.
Sometimes we have clothes that last us years and we don't throw them away because they are still in good condition. 😍
I would love to read your story hahaha

This is a brilliant post Lis. What a shame that they left Venezuela. When it come to lingerie you often get what you pay for. For many women it can be very hard to find that perfect fitting bra, so would when you find a brand and then it vanishes that is a nightmare.
I am lucky though as my bra manufacturer has not changed 🤣
Wishing you an awesome weekend, I like that you and 1.50m watch movies together sometimes in your bed!

Lucky you, I hope your manufacturer never abandons you 😅
The truth is that this lingerie fit my body perfectly, I felt like a celebrity. I hope they come back and the prices are not so expensive.
My little girl is sometimes very clingy with me 😍, I think it's because she spends a lot of time at my mother's house because of her internship at the hospital.

jesus @lisrl26 I'm gonna have to take a cold shower after reading this all this talk about sexy underwear and getting worn out! 😂

The truth is that I laughed a lot with the topics of the weekend.
