Picture this...6in black stiletto ballet boots, fishnet thigh-highs complete with rips, a hand-made chastity belt, vintage corset, and the black leatherette ruffled Good Girl Bad Girl cuffs from Booty Parlor...

When I received my cuffs today, I wasn't thinking about being bound or chained...I wanted sensuality. As soon as I felt just one on my wrist, I wanted the other. And then I found myself playing dress up and admiring my reflection in my boudoir mirror.

I don't hide the fact that I love beautiful things...I collect them, search for them, on occasion send for them from oversees. The price doesn't determine their attractiveness. And some times things that are intended for one thing have a greater purpose.

The one common bond that my treasures share is their beauty. When I saw the Good Girl Bad Girl cuffs, I didn't care that they weren't suitable for bondage. I wanted them because even online I felt sexy thinking about them and that's what I crave - sex appeal.

From the thin pink bows that grace each end of the chains, to the black ribbon with Booty Parlor written in pink, to the BP initials with the bow & arrow ends, to the soft gathered ruffling, to the double strained chain, to the black and pink specialty box they are shipped in. What can I say about these cuffs but "sexiness manifested."

They aren't made for a rough romp in the dungeon but perfect for a naughty girl or bitch boy on a special occasion.

I love the design of the cuffs. What really pulls it all together are the small design attributes such as the cursive handwriting, the sexy girly packaging, the bows, ruffles, and mixture of black and pink.

Now when talking about construction, I will admit that they are not meant for a true bondage session. But at the same time, I didn't feel that Booty Parlor claimed that they would be. Just in case you don't know, I will say it now, loud and clear. Everything that says "bondage" isn't meant to bound and gag. I always keep this in mind when I see cute and frilly things. Everything about the product is sensuous and that's what I feel the focal point should be.

The cuffs are made of faux-leather which is perfect for all of my vegan sex-pots out there. The quality of the material is high-grade and it feels so utterly smooth that you may find yourself running them along your naked flesh every now and then. The cuffs aren't flimsy despite all of the cuteness, and I think that coupled with the faux leather is what gives them the bad girl touch.

The cuffs have a snap closure with three snaps and a three-hole buckle fastener. I measured the cuff from the tip of the buckle closure to the end of the cuff and got 11in. At the time I had the buckle in the last hole. Measuring just the cuff you get 7.5in. With these two sizing options we have plenty of room.

The chain that connects the two cuffs is a little over 11in including the clasps and double chained. I still feel that even with this length, they are more for show than use. What I truly love is that the small D-rings the chains hook to are practically hidden within the buckle clasp. This feature works perfectly when you decide to unhook them and wear them with your kinky outfit.

The spring clasp is very easy to hook and unhook and isn't overly large taking away from the appeal. As a matter of fact, nothing about these cuffs is bulky at all. The pink ribbons give it just the right touch of good girl while the little black ribbon with the Booty Parlor name reminds you that you're really a bad, bad, bad girl.

The Good Girl Bad Girl cuffs can be worn for an extended period of time comfortably. The ruffles and cuff feel just a little stiff, but this will definitely change over wear to a more pliable feel.

The Good Girl Bad Girl cuffs are comfortable enough to wear all night long, but I think that once you wear them a while they will soften up and feel more comfy.

Again I stress that these are not meant for BDSM play. They will not hold up to rough pulling or yanking. But once you have these on, you will just want to keep them in the box for those sexy nights out or sensual playtime.

I honestly didn't expect that these would compare to my metal chains and they don't. But again they weren't created for this type of play. Think sexy, soft, and seductive.

I enjoyed the feel, the lack of an overpowering smell, and all the detail.

Because these are made of faux-leather, you can simply wipe them with a damp cloth, use a mild detergent free soap, or soft bristle brush to clean.

I suggest keeping the cuffs in the box they came in when storing. They fit in the box perfectly and should be kept laying flat and not simply thrown in a drawer with everything else.

The cuffs come to you laying flat in a 4.5in rectangular, drawer style box. It makes you think you're getting a sexy pair of lace panties or expensive chocolate. The drawer pulls out with a thin black sheer ribbon. Everything about this product screams sexy!

There are no raunchy pictures on the box, only cursive writing with the company's name and item information. On the back of the box is a picture of the cuffs with a sexy intro to what you have to look forward to.

I think it's best to keep the cuffs in the box, but you will have to find space for it. The box is sturdy but is not heavy-weight cardboard which means that it may crush if you sit anything on it. Then again at first glance, one may not even notice what's inside until they pull open the drawer.
