Last week Mr BB and I ventured down to Leeds for the grand opening of Boux Avenue‘s 18th store in the White Rose shopping centre. We were invited to the exclusive press event to meet owner Theo Paphitis and check out the glossy new store. […]
It’s the great British £1 coin’s 30th birthday and to commemorate Money Supermarket asked for ‘30 Ways to Save £1‘. As much as I love spending, I live for saving. My bargain obsessed brain had a free work out thinking of this little lot to hopefully save you […]
Lingerie falls into two categories, broadly speaking, in my opinion: there’s your everyday bras and knickers that are comfy and practical (your uncomplicated ‘underwear’) and then there’s the more superior pieces that earn being called lingerie. The latter is the desired; the fabrics that make […]
I love bags and always carry one with me. I feel naked without one. Having a bag was a natural progression from having my school bag growing up so when I was finished with school I moved onto an ‘essentials’ bag. There’s always so much […]
Like many women I’m a sucker for a good shoe. Admittedly, my shoe of choice these days resides around a flat sole; I love a good pair of ankle boots and when the warmer weather lands it’s time for open ballerinas or lace pumps. The […]
For a woman as widely known as supermodel Caprice it shouldn’t come as a surprise that her name would one day front a lingerie brand. Interestingly, and unlike models before, Caprice Bourret created her own lingerie business – By Caprice – putting to work her […]

I’m always super interested to hear from new brands and lingerie retailers, especially those who pay particular attention to the needs of larger boobs. I first came across Lissome Lingerie on Twitter during a networking hour some time ago and at the beginning of February […]
This week you’ll find me inside women’s mag, Pick Me Up (Issue 14, Apr 4). For the first time away from this blog I decided to share my experience of a condition I have called Raynaud’s disease. I spoke about it here last year and Pick […]
Yesterday was National Cleavage Day but it wasn’t the best of weather to be celebrating revealed flesh. I’ve been more familiar with my Heat Holder socks and chunky knit scarves lately than I was in December. We’ve definitely never had as much snow as we’re […]
Eleven years ago, in 2002, Wonderbra decided to celebrate cleavage by giving it an official day of it’s own and so National Cleavage Day was born. I really like National Cleavage Day because, to me, it represents the mile stone of acknowledging I’m a woman and […]
