Kandi Burruss, the most business savvy of the "Real Housewives of Atlanta" cast members, owns a boutique called TAGS in Smyrna, has made a decent amount of coin as a songwriter and is now set to launch a line of sexual items that could be euphemistically called 'intimate luxuries.'

She is holding an invite-only party tonight in New York City to launch the line and will have another private party next week. The YBF broke the story.

The line will launch in October, said her publicist Tresa Sanders. "It's feminine and it's strong at the same time," she said. There is no Facebook or website just yet but I'll update this when I get them. And hopefully I can talk to Kandi about it, too.

Kandi on 'Real Housewives" and her web show "Kandi Koated Nights" has been very open talking about sex and started dating again last year after the death of her fiance.

There are rumors on the YBF that Kandi may be doing some taping for some sort of spin-off Bravo show though no details were provided.
