Roses are red, bruises are black and blue...
According to their site, they started out on a Narrowboat! Growing roses on a Narrowboat, is apparently, not doable! So the creator set about devising an alternative. If you want to read all about their history, it's available here.
To the left is what the ELR Co. call their Erotica rose from their Gothic Collection - my personal favourite rose.
Between the timeless contrast of vivid, passionate red with the strict darkness of black and the gentle spikeyness of the rose's aesthetic, I couldn't help but be drawn to it.
For the kinky amongst us, two roses in particular stand out in the collection.
The first of the two is the Fetish Rose. Described as being "for a different kind of love", the Fetish Rose comes in four different colour designs - pure red, red/black mix, rich purple and pure black.
What really sets these roses apart from the other roses at The English Leather Rose Co. is the addition of real barbed wire! Symbolising the painful pleasures to be found in fetish romances, play and scenes, the barbed wire halo is wound downwards and bound into the black leather stem.
It should go without saying that as these roses have very real, very pointy, barbed wire attached, they're strictly for ornamental use and should be kept and displayed somewhere away from where little hands could grab them!
The other thing you do need to keep in mind about this particular rose design is that barbed wire is not easy for the creator Louise to work with, so at particular times they might not be available (i.e. right before Valentines) and in general it might be a good idea to give her a good bit of notice and allow yourself a little longer, just in case. ;)
Finally, the BDSM rose really struck me. I know so many people who would just fall in love with this. Black and Blue (geddit?) with a black stem and leaves.
The colours featured symbolise a variety of aspects found within BDSM relationships, and the rose is available with or without the fetish adornment of the barbed wire halo. Divine!
I haven't yet had the luxury of owning a leather rose, but some day I will! I'd definately recommend checking out Louise's site at The English Leather Rose Company, and following her on twitter!

Editor’s Pick
- Free-Hardcore.com by SapioSlut
With a name like that, you’d think that www.free-hardcore.com would be one of those dreadful porn aggregators, showing nothing more than row upon row of vacant-eyed, silicone-titted ‘teens’ engaged in the most banal of sexual acts. But it’s not.Note: A wonderful review of kink.com’s free content site, for those of us who love kink.com but don’t have a subscription. Maybe you already knew about this, but I, for one, was in the dark, and thought everyone should know. Not to mention I adore the beginning of the review.

Why Gordon Brown Made Me Rant.
Review: B Cute Pearl
I was lucky enough to be sent a B Cute Pearl by Sextoys.co.uk recently, in exchange for an honest review, and they were kind enough to let me share my thoughts here too!
The first thing I was really struck by when I opened up the discrete parcel was the packaging of the toy. It's really classy, coming in a black-and-pink box, with a rather attractive ladyperson on the front in a totally non-tacky, instead quite seductive, picture. It'd make for a great first impression if it were a gift, as so many toys come in truely classless packaging that can be incredibly offputting - especially for those newer to toys.
Annoyingly, I haven't been able to find a bigger picture of the packaging (I promise I'll start taking my own product pictures just as soon as I can get a camera that will do anything justice!) but the picture to the left demonstrates the 3 colourways of the toy's different packaging colours, and the style of the box. Like I say, really classy, no? Upon opening the box, I was delighted to find a silky black storage pouch lying alongside the toy, making the dinky vibe even more portable. Add that to the fact that all it takes is a single AA battery, and it's probably one of the easiest and cheapest to run toys I own.
I got the Petal Pink colour toy, and upon touching the vibe, the silky smooth silicone feels truly top quality and luxurious. I found myself a little disappointed that there is a seam from moulding the toy, which I personally felt let the toy down a little, considering how polished it seemed elsewhere. Add that to the fact that the cap feels a little cheaper than the rest of the toy (though, again, this is really nothing more than an aesthetic issue as I think it comes down to it being formed of white plastic - in use, the twist-to-operate cap performs very well) and I couldn't help but wish those tiny alterations had been made and the Pearl could have easily punched far above its sub-£30 priceband, easily into the 'luxury toy' category.
Saying that though, I still feel it measures up well to other clitoral toys. I say clitoral, as at 3 inches insertable, it really isn't going to feel too "filling" if inserted and really excels at focussed vibratons around the clit. Still, for vibe virgins or those who aren't keen on deeper, probing sensations, there's no reason why the B Cute Pearl shouldn't be enjoyed as a penertrative vibe. I wouldn't recommend it for anal use as it lacks a flare so could pose a risk of disappearing into parts of the body vibrators should never visit!
In use I was pleased to find that the multi-speed vibrations travel well into the toy rather than the cap, as so many clit vibes do. Silicone is a great material for vibration to carry through though, and this clearly helps. The bumps allow for a number of ways to play, both inserting the toy and through clitoral play, wether it be grinding along its petite length, or riding it to angle it into the g-spot.
Considering all the factors, I really like the Pearl. It's easy to clean, easy and cheap to run, unintimidating, unobtrusive and portable too!
The B Cute Pearl is available now at Sextoys.co.uk for £23.95* in Petal Pink, Rose and Royal Purple now!

Review: Ann Summers Rampant Rabbit Thruster Deluxe
Rightly so, of course, as many women have found them to be the holy grail of vibrators. With a shaft that does things (virtually) no penis can do, and those sensationally stimulating ears ready to buzz you straight to heaven, it's no wonder they've maintained their place at the top of the toy tree.
The Rampant Rabbit Thruster Deluxe promises to take everything the Rampant Rabbit has created and up the ante, adding a thrusting shaft - finally tackling what other penetrative vibes could never do (short of a sybian!) - actually thrust into you.
I was lucky enough to get my mitts on one of these little beauties, and have spent a few sessions now thoroughly testing (for your benefit of course, it's a hard life!) what this bunny can really do.
When you get the Thruster, you need 3 AAs to get it going, and some lube would be an idea unless you tend to take slightly girthier toys well. It's not a monster, but it does have a respectable girth and many ladies will need a little help to lube up. The controls have been kept uber simple - ideal for those moments when you're too lost to know what the hell you need to press. 4 buttons - an up and a down for both the thrusting shaft and the buzzing clitoral stimulator. Set the speeds, and away you go!
In use, the thrusting really blew me away. In all honesty I'd expected it to slow down or even stop under the pressure (I know I tend to "clamp down" a little when I get into it!) but it really didn't! The concertina'd bit is where all the action springs from, and this allows loads of variation depending on how you like to play. The only real limitation is your imagination!
This is one vibe you actually can just hold there and it does the rest of the work. However, I'd recommend trying other positions too, such as straddling the toy or holding it so the thrusts dip in and out, as this has a better chance of stimulating the g-spot.
The rabbit ears buzz on three speed settings; low-med-high, so no pulses or gradient settings, but in all honesty I didn't feel it needed it. There's already enough going on with the thrusting and buzzing.
In a nutshell, I had a great time wiht the Thruster. It's no wonder the This Morning panel gave it 10/10! I'd say it's a great option for single girls too, who may be missing couple-sex, or even for those in relationships as the possibilities (giving head while being fucked by a vibe? I think so!) are endless.
If you've been wavering, stop. Just go and try it already.

PS! here's a video about how it works! It's the official one, not by me, hence why I left it till the end!

Last Night
He stops, slick from my juices. I'm told to stand, and face him. He kisses me forcefully once more before commanding me to kneel. I drop to my knees, as he strokes himself in my face. "Take it" he tells me, and I take his cock into my mouth. As I suck, lick and lap at his glistening cock, I'm ordered to play with my tits. I feel his cock stiffen further in the final throes of pleasure, as he forces himself further into my face. I swallow every drop.
