1.Pink robe from Kashwére 2.White robe from Kashwére 3.Red robe from PIP Studios 4.Grey robe from Eberjey

This year we have brought in a great selection of warm and luxurious robes. Great for giving, these robes will help keep the cool winter chill at bay. After-all, every Cannuck gal needs something cozy to lounge around in. Here is just a sampling of the many robes and wraps we have in store.

1. & 2. Kashwére - The Kashwére robes are lightweight and incredibly soft, giving the feeling of being wrapped in a cloud. With their unforgettable warmth and softness, it's no wonder they made Oprah's list of favourite things! Extremely durable and machine washable, these robes will never shrink, pill or fade if properly washed.

3. PIP Studios - Lend a vintage-inspired flourish to your loungwear with PIP Studio's vibrant 100% cotton robe. Made from thick and warm cotton velour, it is imbued with a brightly-hued bird print. This robe is available in turquoise and white as well. We have a gorgeous classic white cotton terry robe from PIP Studios too. Designed to make getting out of the warm shower that little bit more appealing.

4. Eberjey - The new Alpine Chic robe from Eberjey is their warmest robe yet. Reversible white fleece with soft jersey makes this robe a winter winner. Feels like a warm hug worn over your favorite Eberjey PJs—or pop it on over that bikini for the sprint from the ski lodge to the hot tub!

If you are anything like us, you just can't get enough Hanky Panky! This customer favourite is loved by everyone for their fantastic thongs and great panty styles. Hanky Panky's yearly holiday offerings are always a hit. Beestung has all the latest prints and styles on hand for all the women who can't live without their Hanky Pankys.

1. Metallic fuchsia dot print thong - If sparkle is her thing, gift her with a metallic fuchsia dot print thong or boyshort. Black in pops of vibrant fuchsia dots glazed over in a metallic sheen for a festive, flirty look.

2. Classic red plaid thong - For a classic take on 'holiday', a red plaid thong or boyshort can't be beat. We're picturing a long walk in the crisp autumn air wrapped in our coziest knit sweater, sipping on something deliciously hot as the leaves so rich in color fall gracefully off the trees. In other words, we say slip on a pair of plaid skivvies, grab your mug and get some fresh air!

3. Sparkle box three-pack - For generous gift-givers, the three-pack and five-pack sparkle boxes are easy stocking stuffers. These coordinating pack of Signature Lace Thongs are available in both low and original rise. Packaged in a shining, shimmering oh-so-splendid box, perfect for gift giving!

4. Logo-to-go sleepwear set - For something more sassy, the little tank and tap pant logo-to-go sleepwear set is a great choice. Take just one step into this deliciously soft sleep set and you will fall madly in love. The touch of buttery smooth modal jersey on your skin combined with luscious lace embellishment, scalloped edging and a dainty rosette on the front end of each strap will make any day or night wearing this an affair to remember.
For a truly unique gift, check out designer Kiran Rai’s company Sir Alistair Rai. These spirited scarves for the global woman are perfect to throw over your shoulders and keep you warm. Match to your favourite chemise or pajamas, or wear out with your winter coat. This celebrity favourite comes in many unique colours and prints, as individual as the women who wear them. Because looking good makes you happy from the inside out. More great gift ideas here.

Undercover Agent: Your Guide To Success



As summer rears it's hot and humid head, many women are left wondering what to pair with their summer favourites. Sheer dresses, clingy jersey and unforgiving linen can all be tamed with the right foundation garment. Let the gals at Beestung Lingerie help you be your own best Undercover Agent with a few tips:
  • Pair the right pieces. Bring that tricky skirt or dress into Beestung with you. We have a variety of different slips in stock and trying them on with your dresses and skirts is the best way to see what will work.
  • Comfort is key. For a sundress that will be worn around the city, a slip may suffice and will keep you cool and comfortable. For a formal event though, shapewear with some control may look more polished.
  • Panty lines be damned. Attending a wedding or summer party? Asses what you are wearing before the big day. Give your outfit a test run by trying on your dress and panties. Stand in front of a mirror in full sunlight. Can you see your panties? If so, come in and we will show you some great options.
  • Hapless strapless. Many summer dresses have thin little straps. For a formal function we definitely recommend going with a great fitting strapless bra. For a dress you intend to wear around the city streets though, you may be able to get away with a pretty strap that shows.

Undercover Agent: Commando Slips



Beestung Lingerie's owner, Aimée Finlay, lives in these slips. All women who love to wear dresses need this wardrobe staple in their closet. A go-to item, our Commando slips never fail. Perfect for pairing with a wrap dress, or as a sleek layer under a knit, this slip's adjustable straps, scoop front and just-above-the-knee length make it a real wardrobe workhorse. All Commando classic items are made of a luxuriously chic, sleek stretch microfiber and are cool and comfortable to wear in even the hottest summer days. Featuring Commando's patented weighted hem to prevent creeping, clinging and sticking. Available in a variety of lengths and styles, including strapless, the right slip can make an outfit. Reducing panty lines, eliminating cling and combating sheer fabric, a slip will take your dress from o.k. to incredible.

Undercover Agent: Slimplicity Half Slip



This simply elegant shaper is a fashion piece pretty enough to be a part of your look! Soft-to-the-touch fabric and powerful compression meet chic design and thoughtful details. This sleek half slip from Spanx's Slimplicity collection goes from day to night. Pair this piece under an evening dress for no lines and a smooth derrière. Yes, shaping can be this stylish!

Undercover Agent: Luxe Wire-Free Bra



Women are always asking us for a lightly lined bra that is wire-free. This Beestung favourite from Donna Karan fits the bill. In nude and black microfiber, this bra will keep you covered and comfortable. A great bra to wear on those hot days. With non-slip straps and back smoothing laser cut wings, this bra combines the best technical features available to provide a great fit. Available from A-D cup.

Undercover Agent: Luxe Camisole



We all have that gorgeous blouse that we never wear because it's just too sheer. This concealing camisole from Donna Karan is just the trick. Like a slip in tank-top form, this layering piece will keep you covered and let your top shine. Pair this cami over your favourite t-shirt bra for a smooth and supported look. The luxurious silky microfiber is soft and comfy against the skin, while offering the smooth finish you are looking for. Wear this under all your prettiest blouses and tops for a polished look.

Undercover Agent: Le Mystere's Linguine Bra



Le Mystere has built their reputation around fit. This gorgeous t-shirt bra exemplifies a superior fit and incredible design. The seamless foam-lined demi cups and plunging neckline is perfect for everyday. The soft ballet nude is both pretty and practical for summer wear. The satin double strap is a sweet addition to this basic and begs to be seen. Trimmed with satin around the cup and power mesh side wings for amazing support, this bra has you covered. Available from A-F cup and in backs starting at size 30, this new basic guarantees comfort and great fit.

Undercover Agent: Commando Bottoms


The closest thing to wearing nothing, Commando's microfiber panties work with the most unforgiving of outfits. Great under silk, invisible under linen, when nothing else works Commando is your go-to. The bottom line is there's no bottom line. These under wonders feature Commando's signature laser-cut invisible edges and luxe fabrications, in silhouettes guaranteed to deliver a dig-free fit & line-free look. Beestung stocks a number of cuts including the thong, girl-short and CYA bikini.
