Add Valentine’s Day Drama With A Sexy Costume – Queen Of Hearts
Not everyone want a Valentine’s costume that is innocent, sweet and sexy. Maybe you want a sexy costume for Valentine’s Day but want a costume that is a little more edgy.

While dressing up like a sexy Cupid is certainly a sexy costume option, it can be a little predictable. And, if you are trying to sweeten things up a little this year, you may want a costume that is a little more unique.
One of the first sexy Valentine’s Day costume themes we found was, of course, candy. Now, we are not suggesting that you dress up like a box of candy. Those costumes, while certainly very cute, are not usually very sexy. We did, however, find a number of candy girl themed adult costumes. If you are looking for an adult costume that is innocent, sweet and sexy, an adult Candy Shop Girl costume may fit your needs.

Removing Candle Wax From Clothing
Maybe it was a romantic evening or possibly a birthday party, either way, there were candles involved and now there is a big blob of melted wax stuck to one of your cute, sexy tops. Now comes the question…How do I get this off without ruining the top?
To start with, use dull knife to scrape off as much wax as possible. Place the fabric between two blotters such as paper towels or facial tissues and press with warm iron. This should melt the wax and the paper towels will absorb it. Continue this step as long as wax is being removed. If is it colored wax, you can remove color stains with non-flammable dry cleaning solvent. Once you are done, wash with detergent in the hottest water safe for fabric.
As an alternative:
Harden wax by rubbing with ice. Remove surface wax by carefully scraping with the dull edge of a butter knife.
Sandwich the wax stain between folded paper towels and press with a warm (not hot) iron. Replace paper towels frequently to absorb more wax and to prevent transferring the stain.
Place stain face down on clean paper towels. Sponge remaining stain with a pre-wash stain remover or dry-cleaning fluid; blot with paper towels. Let dry, then launder. Note: If any color remains, re-launder with a bleach that is safe for the fabric.
How To Remove Butter And Oil Stains From Sexy Clothing – Part II
We previously told you about removing light oily stains from sexy clothing. However, sometimes, a greasy, oily stain needs a little more. If, after washing, a color stain remains, launder with fabric safe bleach or a chlorine bleach, if it is safe for the fabric. Always test for colorfastness before using chlorine bleach. Not only can chlorine bleach completely remove color, it can also damage the fabric.
For heavy greasy stains, place heavy stains face down on clean paper towels. Apply dry cleaning fluid to the back of stain. Replace towels frequently. (Carefully read and follow instructions on the product package, dry cleaning fluid in extremely flammable) Once the stain is gone, let the garment air dry, rinse well and then launder in hottest water safe for the fabric.
What Are Boy Shorts?
Boy shorts, also known as boy short panties, boys’ cut, booty shorts, shorties or boyleg briefs are a sort of lingerie that goes all the way down the hips. They are a relatively new, but increasingly popular style of lingerie among women and are named for their similarity in looks to men’s shorts. Boy shorts often cover most of the buttocks area, but this is not always the case with thong-back lingerie also widely available.
Boy shorts are a popular choice since most of them may avoid displaying a prominent visible panty line provided they don’t ride up, and yet are a modest and comfortable alternative to thongs and conventional panties. They are also popularly teamed-up with a camisole and worn as loungewear. Just because they provide coverage doesn’t mean that there aren’t sexy boy shorts—there are several alluring designs to choose from.
How To Remove Butter And Oil Stains From Sexy Clothing
Sometimes, accidents happen. Has this happened to you? You’re wearing your favorite sexy dress and have gone out to eat and something greasy drips and, of course, it never seems to hit the napkin. Now, that extra special dress that always makes you feel fantastic has a big greasy stain. Some of the biggest culprits of dining disasters are butter, cooking oils, margarine, mayonnaise, vegetable oils and, for that matter, anything remotely fatty. So, what do you do?
All is not lost and chances are pretty good that, if treated promptly, your beautiful dress will not end up in the donate box. Treat light oily stains with a pretreatment spray stain remover and wait a couple minutes for it to penetrate. Rub with a heavy duty liquid laundry detergent and launder. Regular dish soap that is formulated to cut grease also works quite well.
Removing Tar And Asphalt From Sexy Clothes
It was a day or evening you would just as soon forget and to make it even worse, you somehow managed to get tar, asphalt or some other equally nasty parking lot or car gunk on your favorite dress. Before you decide to throw that sexy dress in the trash, you might try one of these tar and asphalt stain removal techniques.
First, rub the area with ice and carefully scrape off what you can with the dull edge of a butter knife. Next, saturate the area with an aerosol pretreatment laundry stain remover. Give it time to penetrate the stain as well as the fabric. Keep in mind that it will soak through the fabric faster than it will soak through the stained area. Once the area has soaked through, rub the area with a heavy duty liquid laundry detergent and launder immediately. We have also found that dish soap specially formulated to cut grease will often work too.
If the color stain remains, launder in chlorine bleach if safe for the fabric, or in all-fabric bleach. Always check for color fastness first. For extra heavy stains, apply dry cleaning fluid to the back of the stain over absorbent paper towels. Let it dry. Then, rinse thoroughly and proceed as above. Read the product label and proceed carefully when using dry cleaning fluid, it is extremely flammable!
Removing Adhesive Tape and Glue From Sexy Clothes
Many manufacturers are now using adhesive labels and tags rather than hang tags. How many times have you purchased a sexy top or a new pair of jeans and peeled off the adhesive tag only to find a sticky residue left from the adhesive label? Some times this sticky mess washes out and sometimes, much to your dismay, it’s still there after you wash the garment. Now what do you do?
Having personally experienced this frustrating situation ourselves, we set out to find a laundry solution. As always, be sure to read and follow the care instructions and any warnings on the garment label…trust us, this is critical. We have ruined to many garments to count simply because we didn’t take the time to read the label.
First, refer back to our General Rules for stain removal. Now, specifically for removing adhesives from clothing (this is good for various kinds of tape as well as assorted kinds of glue):
Rub ice on the area and carefully scrape off what you can with the dull side of a butter knife or a spoon.
Completely soak the stain area with a pretreatment stain remover. Wait a couple of minutes for the product to penetrate.
Rub with heavy-duty liquid laundry detergent. Depending on how delicate the fabric is, watch how hard or long you rub so that you do not damage the fabric. Launder immediately.
For difficult stains, you can try applying dry cleaning fluid to the back of stain. Be sure to place absorbent paper towels under the area you are working with. Let the treated area dry, rinse thoroughly and proceed as per above. Please be sure to read and carefully follow the instructions on the product label regarding use and handling.
