Meet Our "Sister Store"

Did you know there's another Knickers?

Knickers of Hyde Park is Cincinnati's premiere bra fit specialist and intimate apparel haven! And, they're our "sister store"!

Jenny Schneider started Knickers of Hyde Park 10 years ago. We met when we both worked for Knickers of Glen Ellyn. We became fast friends and dreamed of one day having our own little lingerie boutiques.

Although we're separate stores, we shop together for merchandise and transfer items back and forth to accommodate our customer's needs.

There are several people who have been in both stores. I love when someone walks in and asks if Knickers is a "chain store". I immediately know they've been to Cincinnati and to Knickers of Hyde Park!

I visited this past week and had the best time with Jenny, her family, and the Knickers girls. It's such a beautiful store. She inspires me every day!

If you're ever in the Cincinnati area I hope you'll make time to visit Knickers of Hyde Park and say hello to this very special girlfriend!

Introducing the Lip Slip

The lip slip is the latest from Sara Happ, creator of the cult favorite lip scrub line. A balm like no other, the lip slip leaves no color, just the richest, glossiest hydration imaginable. Infused with Sweet Almond, Jojoba & Macadamia nut oils. It's so silky, it's like lingerie for your lips! Wear it all day. Wear it overnight. Results are immediate. You'll love how this feels!

This "couture gloss" is best paired with the lip scrub, which eliminates dry, flaky skin to leave lips ridiculously soft and supple. Choose from cool minty peppermint, or scrumptious brown sugar.

New Arrivals

New and already favorites....

We're crazy for Munki Munki sleepwear! This fresh collection of whimsical pajamas and nighties is perfect for welcoming Spring.

Choose from a poplin chemise with dachshund, a light weight voile cami pajama with butterflies, a mesh cami and short set with kites and clouds, a mesh chemise with cute little ladybugs and butterflies, or their classic knit cami with cropped pants that feature beloved gold fish names. So so cute!

Recent arrivals also include the new Bleu Claire collection of airy mesh camisoles, thongs (pictured to the right), boyleg panties and sleepwear. Each piece is a work of art and oh so romantic.


When shopping for the store, I'm always looking for anything that inspires and affirms...things that empower us to be the great women that we are! This is the case with our new collection of pictures from artist Kelly Rae Roberts. Her unique look of layered mixed-media includes acrylics, oils, collage and ink. Her own words say it best. "My hope is that my work invokes a sense of clarity and peace inside of you as you walk your own path in life, and that it inspires you to discover your own limitlessness." How beautiful!

These special pictures are $18 to $36.

Treat your feet with Butter London!


Ladies, it's almost sandal season. It's time to pamper those legs, feet and toes, that have been cooped up in boots all winter. That's why we're excited about Butter London! New to the United States, all of their products are made of the finest ingredients, beautifully packaged, and will make you feel like a queen!

Stiletto Stick
Extremely dry, cracked heels are difficult to treat since most products are heavy, greasy, and not at all shoe-friendly. With Stiletto Stick, your heels will benefit from a high urea content and macadamia nut oil, while staying silky, soft and never greasy, because of the unique "solid formula". Genius!

Pumps
Spritz puffy, tired, overworked legs and feet with this energizing foot spray to tighten and revive. Helps reduce swelling, stimulate blood flow, and deodorize.

Powder Finish Foot Creme
Imagine a product that contains the same active ingredient found in your antiperspirant, suspended in shea and cocoa butter. Add a touch of camphor for cooling, some triclosan to prevent microbial growth, and you're looking at one special foot-creme.

Silk Stocking
Give your legs the silky shimmer of stockings. This gel contains marine biology, multiple plant extracts, and added collagen to detoxify, lift and smooth. All these qualities are suspended in a luscious, light-reflecting gel that will glamorize your gams and hide blemishes!

Lacquer Lovers Duo
Two fanciful polish shades; Primrose Hill Picnic and Frilly Knickers. How apropos! Your toes have never been so pretty.
