We may still be in Winter (yak!) but thankfully March is around the corner and if you look closely you’ll see glimmers of spring suggestion; buds are awakening on the old season’s tired trees and shoots are sprouting from beneath fading smatterings of snow. It’s […]
Okay, tomorrow is the 14th of February which means I’ve left it pretty late for a Valentine’s Day post. That’s true, although my excuse is I’ve been unwell for a little while and seeing as you’re here too probably means you’ve left the all important […]
My recent experience with Curvy Kate‘s Princess bra wasn’t the success I’d hoped for. I’d found the fit very broad with straps that teetered on the edge of my shoulders. I absolutely loved the style and the berry colour was just delicious so I was […]
Earlier this week saw the introduction of some gorgeous new bras for the early spring season at Bravissimo. New on the block, own brand bra Paradiso Plume had me smitten the moment I saw it online. I was tempted to place an order from the […]
I hadn’t tried a Curvy Kate bra for a while, with the last design I bought being the Criss-cross, which didn’t work out for me. I’ve always had my eye on the brand though because there’s always something new to catch your eye, whether a […]
Even though I’ve been blogging for two years this month, I’d never heard of the Liebster Blog Award before. It turns out it’s a casual blogger nominated award for blogs with no more than 200 readers (I’m guessing GFC followed). It’s a way of acknowledging […]

At one point we Brits ruled the world. The goods we consumed and traded were made by our own fair hands and considered some of the finest quality in manufacture. We bought British because it stood for the best, our livelyhoods depended on the presence […]
“You’re not curvy, you’re fat!” “You’re too skinny to be curvy!” Curves. We love them. We hate them. Gok Wan really loves them. And often, we get curves all wrong. The thing about curves is that they’re not size specific, yet time and time again the […]
Bra fitting isn’t just about establishing cup and band size. Oh no. With so many manufacturers, bra styles and varying fabrics, it would be impossible to fit into every single bra just based upon measurement alone. In fact, fitting into a bra properly can mean […]
Recently I said January is the month for fresh starts and new experiences and so a few weeks ago I placed my first order at vintage inspired Dotcomgiftshop. I’ve been visiting the site and receiving the emails for quite a long time but I just […]
Since Freya launched their moulded seam free bra back in 2009, Deco has become possibly the most prevalent collection available to the fuller bust market. It’s success has led the introduction of a variety of styles and colour ways over the years, providing wearers […]
