* 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 […]
Lingerie is more than simply underwear to me. It channels my personality and allows me to reflect however I’m feeling, using colour, texture and style to play on my mood. Pregnancy was a time of my life that changed my relationship with underwear; I no longer wore […]
Wearing functional maternity bras for months on end can be such a bore. After what certainly felt like going on a year, I couldn’t wait to pack away the nursing bras and get back into regular underwear. Following the birth I continued to wear my […]
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, […]

No colour trend has been more lingerie fitting than this year’s Colour of the Year scheme by Pantone. And there’s not one, but two colours for 2016: Serenity Blue, and the delicately pretty Rose Quartz. What makes Rose Quartz such a gorgeous colour to wear is […]
Lingerie is having a blue moment, and it’s every inch a cheerful affair. Colour authority, Pantone, has selected a whimsical theme for 2016 naming not one but two colours of the year, with powder blue Serenity (alongside blush Rose Quartz) headlining the most desirable colours. Serenity blue, with […]
I always look forward to seeing Gossard’s latest collections. They’re one of the most most worldwide recognised lingerie brands and it’s all because of their trend led aesthetics and accessibility. This is true for many other D-G friendly brands too but Gossard have something that’s unique to them […]
I’m loving what the lingerie industry is offering the fuller bust consumer these days but I can happily admit that it’s an area guilty of pigeon holing. Heaps of ‘grown up’ looking lingerie can feel overwhelming, and frankly, boring. Whoever said a larger busted gal can’t have the same fun […]
