Yearend Cheers for the Shai Guys

December 31, 2007

Who say’s we forgot about our beloved handsome SL men?

Presenting all new clothes for the Casa del Shai guy. Channelling Italian goodness, period clothing and a tiny peek into what’s instore for our men, we give you three stylish characters to choose from :)

The Newsboy Outfit
A hark back to the glorious days of the newspaper boy, this outfit calls out to the workforce as they trudge the empty morning cobblestone streets of the city. Each set comes with two coloured striped sweaters (full color + grey combinations), a separate jacket layer for the suspenders that you can wear with other shirts, and a set of grimy black wool pants.

The Nehru Suit
The popular Indian suit has graced its modern touch at the Casa del Shai. Promoted well thru movies and the glittery hollywood scene, the Nehru Jacket was seen off the illustrous villains of our times. Dr. No, Austin Powers and also popularized by Johnny Carson. Handcrafted with the best linen textiles, this suit comes with a jacket, a dress shirt and a matching pair of pants.

The Alpine Man
The sweet mountain air fills your breath as you shuffle across the winter’s path. The Alpine man is an altitude dressy outfit for those who like adventures up in the Bavarian Alps. Comes with a tweed waistcoat, trimmed with coque feather on the pocket, a knit sweater, a white dress shirt and matching tweed belted pants.

Chastity Unravelled

December 15, 2007

A foray into the naught of the night, Boudoir slips this sexy little lingerie set into your Christmas stockings. The Chastity Lingerie set binds you with the intricate wrappings of tinsel. She flirts with innocence as her lace peekaboo corset shows off her waist and holds her limbs into secret obedience. The steel key at her neck is the only path to her heart. Seducing your senses in Black, Dark Chocolate, and Hot Pink. For she of the most chaste can be the voluptuous vixen in the wee hours of the morning.

Comes iridescent in Myrtle Green.

Holiday Hosting Awaits the Casa Woman

December 2, 2007

Welcoming the winter chill, Casa del Shai introduces glamourous separates into the mix. These women wear the pants in bejeweled colours, paving the way for soft woolen knits, silk charmeuse and evening chiffon. Presenting this week’s releases for the sophisticate glamourous hostess of dinner parties.

First off is the Roisin Cocktail Dress, a floaty zebra print chiffon dress to rule haute hosting this season. Entertain your guests in a flowing wrap dress, with arm cutouts and shoulder trimmings. Dinner parties are never complete without you.

Harking back to the glorious 70s, the Dakota Pantsuit is an evening soiree number that glides oh so sexily as she waves her hands about. Slip on this rich duchess satin blouse with prim flexi sleeves. Get tucked into the fashionable high-waisted denims that hug your derriere and show off that waistline. Then dance the night away.

Be this season’s best dressed femme and chalk up all your party invites in these holiday must haves. The Roche Cocktail Outfit comes in sheer silk charmeuse, draped over a matching beaded tank top. A chanteuse atop slinky Alligator stovepipe jeans. Perhaps a conversation piece on its own.

No fireplace rendezvous can really swing without a saucy serving of woolen snuggles. Warm yourselves with the Sarita cowl neck sweater, in deep jewel tones. Sculpted collar makes you feel all toasty cool. The Sarita Sweater Set is matched up with a pair of rich tweed slacks to hug your bottom half in stylish flavor.
