If you reader's are anything like me, you will undoubtedly be taking a trip into the hottest stores in town this season.

I am talking, of course, about Ann Summers. I have completed the 50 Shades Trilogy and am on a mission to spice things up!!!!!!

So, I took a trip to my local Ann Summers store (it's the O'Connell Street, Dublin branch) and made a few purchases that would give Miss Ana Steele a run for her money.

The above all feature in the New Ann Summer's 2012 Catalouge. I'm obsessed with this seasons stock as the pic's feature a whole spectrum of body shapes (as you will notice above). A range of real size's at real prices. 

Gone were the frilly tutus and nurses uniforms in my local Ann Summer's window. Instead, the shop front, I am pleased to report did not look like a last ditch effort of a typical hen's night. This season's window was tantilisingly decadent, heavy reds and gothic blacks dominated the display and the (once banned to the back of the store) bondage sex toys shone in full view luring me in. Clearly the window dresser is a fan of the 50 Shades trilogy too!!! 

For those of you who have read the book....you will recognise these very unusual looking spheres!!!!! Ann Summmer's also stock the aptly named "Love Ropes" and a huge selection of blindfolds, paddles and handcuff's allowing us brave to taste the world of 50 Shades of Grey in our very own home!!!

If your too embarassed to enter a store and have a browse, you can shop online at www.annsummers.com/ie ....delivery is fast, cheap and very very discreet....just like some of the scenes in the 50 shades books!!!!
