* PR GIFTED Since becoming a mum, what I’ve looked for in underwear has definitely changed. Whilst I can still appreciate the fashion and frivolity of the lingerie world, when it comes to my everyday wardrobe I have no time for style without substance. My […]
* PR GIFTED Life as a mum is not glamorous – something I was never deluded to think otherwise even before I became a mum myself. It’s a hard life; days spent elbow deep at the dirty end of a baby and being devoured by […]
Great fitting bras have been thin on the ground for me lately. You’d think as a lingerie blogger I’d be so inundated with fabulous lingerie that my underwear draw would be bursting at the seams – it is, but not with anything I can wear. I’m […]
*PR Gifted/May Contain Affiliate Links Fuller bust lingerie generally gets a bad rap, often accused of looking frumpy and offering little in the way of smaller banded, large cup sizes. And it’s fair to say I’ve experienced these disappointments enough to know it can be true, so it’s easy […]

Pregnancy makes boobs crazy, and it starts right from the first trimester. The past twelve weeks have taken a painful turn, leaving me vulnerable to sensitivities. While a few of my regular bras are still comfortably wearable, softer and more gently supportive, maternity specific bras have […]
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, […]
I like my lingerie to be two things: reliable and mood reflecting. And of course that opens up to a whole plethora of styles and colours, which makes lingerie so complex and, importantly, fun! Summer is a great time to expand your lingerie collection if you […]
Lingerie is having a blue moment, and it’s every inch a cheerful affair.
