Maternity lingerie can be too beige. Don’t get me wrong, beige has its place, it’s fantastic when you want a neutral colour that won’t show through your clothes. But sometimes neutral, basic colours don’t cut it, and maternity underwear can be guilty of being so niche, […]
Preparing the birth plan for my fast approaching due date, I’ve decided a water birth sounds ideal for me. I don’t cope with pain particularly well and have a long suffering history of painful periods and chronic pain, so all the positive stories I keep reading about water births […]
I’m continually amazed by how breast change in pregnancy falls in line with bump development. It took me until the start of the 2nd trimester for my tummy to really start growing, by which time my bras also started to feel less comfortable. While it didn’t […]
My maternity journey is proving to be the most transformative season of my life, right after puberty. If not only for the scarily impending responsibility motherhood will soon heap onto my shoulders, but the constant daily change I’m seeing in my body as I head toward that goal. […]
‘Good things come to those who wait’ said someone once, and they were right. Anticipate the release of an exciting new collection and it’ll feel a lifetime of agony, but when it’s launched the reward is sweet. Few full bust lingerie lines offer enough to be genuinely thrilling […]

At certain times of the month my boobs can feel something crazy. One minute they’re just big, cuddly mounds of squishiness, the next they’re moody boobs, rocks on fire, inflicting pain and misery into your sleepless life. It’s times like this that I can’t cope with my […]
If you took a look through my lingerie stash you’d probably be surprised by what I own. ‘Basics’ in black, white and skin tone are considered the mainstay of any underwear collection, but a neutral colour palette just isn’t my cup of tea. While some of my essentials are, […]
All too often I hear the same cry repeating: “you can’t get nice swimwear for bigger busts”. It makes me want to burst out even louder – you can! It doesn’t mean every brand caters for us bustier girls but it does mean there’s some […]
