Amore Tulle Midi Skirt in Black. A tulle skirt is great for all types of occasions. This particular outfit I would wear to a dinner party.

Hello, Gorgeous!: threads. Thus is just beautiful. So simple, so classic and very sexy all at the same time. I live shirt pleated skirts.

Feminine and elegant, the moments ¾ sleeve big shirt is tailored from 100 percent mercerized cotton for incredible nighttime comfort. Three-quarter length sleeves and a mid thigh-length hem provide coverage and warmth, while the sleep shirt is trimmed with French stretch lace along the sleeves and v-neck style neckline for a romantic look. Perfect balance of elegance and comfort. My wife loves it. So do I.

A very nice gown indeed. It’s made of very good quality satin, with soft semi-transparent strap material (the same as the sweepy hemline) and good quality metal hardware for the adjustable straps. The hemline sits nicely below the knee for the most part, with a raised section right in front of the left knee, making for fun doorway stances with a little bit of leg showing! The pink is a little more pink than I had expected, but not garishly so, and it’s still a soft pink which is quite flattering. The cut fits me perfectly, but those with more ‘generous’ bustlines might not find it so ideal. The model here is more indicative of the body shape this is clearly cut for, so for those of us with less pronounced curves it’s perfect. There’s plenty of lingerie for the more curvaceous sorts as it is, so it’s nice to find something like this.

Perfect fit, feminine styling, great silhouette. I love the pinwhale corduroy, soft, and washes up beautifully. This top is also a perfect length, not too long, as often is the case with many of the plus size tops.

The top is very very nice..As one other reviewer reported the small was slightly large, not too big, but because I sew, I took it in a little in the arms and sides and it is perfect. It’s really different and I know I will enjoy it! http://goo.gl/8Sq7iV

The quality of this top is very nice, its beautiful. However, I’m returning it because it is too big on me. I’m 5'2 103 pounds and it is perfect on my chest and arms but very loose on the waist. http://goo.gl/8Sq7iV

Love this skirt ! I ordered this item on the 12th of December and it came on the 20th . This skirt is super cute and comfy ! It hugs your curves and fits in all the right places ! I would definitely but this skirt again in another color ! http://goo.gl/SQ2Xgz

Love the skirt. Love the color. Perfect for wearing to work, traveling, hanging out. I have this in two colors and it was all I wore for a week’s trip to New Orleans in the summer. http://goo.gl/XaoAwf

This skirt is super cute. The material is a bit thin but not see thru. It’s perfect for fall or mild winters only due to thinness of material. To give an idea of sizing, I am 5'9 and 159 pounds, my hips are 39’ inches. I ordered Large, fits perfectly and just below the knee. It hugs every inch tightly but you can move about comfortably and it doesn’t feel ‘tight’ and does not bag after wearing for hours on end. It holds its shape. The rust color is a beautiful burnt orange, perfect for fall. Think I will order the other two colors later I do own several other real suede skirts (size 8) and they do not stretch or have any leeway, however they are thicker material and satin lined. Shipping was fairly quick also. http://goo.gl/SQ2Xgz

I bought these last year and wore them throughout the fall and winter months. I really love them. They look tough and chic at the same time. I wore them with a denim tunic and Converse sneakers as well as with oversized sweaters and booties, and they worked well both ways. They are extremely versatile and can be worn in myriad ways. While they won’t pass for real leather, faux leather is now considered mainstream and Hue always has excellent quality items that are fairly priced and these leggings are no exception. I wear a size 8 and the medium fit me perfectly. They have a generous rise and are not low cut like other brands. They are very comfortable to wear on cool or cold days but can be a bit warm otherwise. The material is thick enough so that it thankfully doesn’t show every bump or bulge. They can be hand washed and hung to dry or even placed in the dryer for 10 minutes on the lowest setting (which gets out the wrinkles). All in all, I’m pleased with my purchase and will look forward to wearing them again this year. When I was shopping for faux leather leggings, Hue had the best quality of all and although they were a little pricier ($50), they were definitely worth it because they looked the most like real leather. I definitely recommend these Hue leggings.

So we got a little excited this week. I’m not sure if you’ve ever hit the trifecta of lingerie, but I think this may have happened to us this week. More of a trifecta over 4 or 5 times, so many of our/my favourite labels are having sales this week. Dita, Made by Niki, Nichole De Carle, La Perla, Carine Gilson. Sorry to name drop, but there is definitely something you’ll fall in love with. Also, it’s not just the labels either, my favourite collections have also hit the sales rack! Thought you couldn’t get your hands on luxury lingerie? Guess again. Welcome to the Luxury Lingerie Sales.

After reading fashion and lingerie guides/blogs for so so many years, I feel like I have a pretty good understanding of the items that “every woman needs in her wardrobe’. But honestly, when it comes to shopping for lingerie basics, it’s always been a bit of a slog. There such a different between ‘basic’ or ‘classic’ items. Sometimes you just finding yourself running around in circles trying to work out what the ‘best’ soft cup bra, comfy undies or tights are exactly?

So you have underarm breast tissue a little too much side boob perhaps? Breasts come in many shapes and sizes and as you are probably aware if you are experiencing this issue, they do not sit perkily and centred on a majority of people. It’s nothing to be ashamed of, it’s experienced by so many women regardless of weight or age. Did you know the most photoshopped area of the female body is underarm breast tissue. You’re not alone. Even celebrities AND models have been known to have it. Although there is no quick fix or easy solution to making this disappear completely, there are some ways to reduce the appearance of UBT. And of course, if you’re okay with it, rock it! If you’re happy with it, that’s fine this is just a little something for those girls out there who aren’t as happy rocking UBT.

Miss Crofton is, for those who have been following along for a while now, a brand I’ve loved from it’s dawn. Well not quite that far back, but it was a case of coupe de foudre! Lingerie, like the first move in a romance should be flirtatious, charming, expressive, and avoid cliché – and the handmade pieces of Miss Crofton are impeccably right. Run by Georgia Campbell, Miss Crofton’s designs are not only of high quality, completely handmade and so darn gorgeous but also affordable. The piece we’re crushing on today is this lacy piece. This dainty bra comes in a soft cream colour that will look elegant against any skin tone. Feminine and fanciful, this will be an ever so pretty addition to your lingerie drawer.

What’s the best part about this time of year? Halloween. But also Elle McPherson and Stella having their massive end of season sales. Their sales are usually held around September after the other sales have just wound up (so make sure to set a little aside, because they’re always worth it. I’m talking reductions down to $15). Although now it is much past September (and so close to halloween!), there are still a number of items by Elle and Stella you can pick up for very very cheap! As well as my Elle and Stella affair, I’m also a big lover of lace and hater of the feeling of picking up a gorgeous lacy piece and realizing that it’s the same price as your rent… isn’t it actually the most disappointing thing? My general shopping philosophy is that I try to purchase meaningful pieces that are the best quality that I can afford (meaning not spending this months rent on a set and having to eat lentils for a month). I also try my best to buy from companies which I support as well as giving back to smaller brands (they need your help to guys!). Elle McPherson and Stella McCartney are two of my absolute favourites who I support throughout because of their high quality pieces, design and they truly last the test of time.

Andrée Ciccarelli has my whole-hearted vote! Not only is the lingerie itself ridiculously comfortable, but Andrée is the sweetest and most savvy business owner who has brought her line to the highest level of quality. I had the pleasure of working with her in the NYC Lingerie Fashion week runway show this past October and saw the brand in action! I believe in her and the pieces made me feel beautiful without being overdone. Simple and classic is the way to go and she has married the two. 2. How long have you been collecting? I recently started incorporating lingerie into my outfit choices! I had always thought of it being specifically for underneath, but honestly it’s just as fun out in the open, those pretty little scalloped edges peeking out. So I really only started collecting just within this past year but my collection has been

We’ve done many pieces on this in the past and have a few guides out there regarding buying luxury lingerie. I thought for once I’d share a few of my favourites for SS15 before it turns into AW15. While we are heading into next season, the great thing is that if, like me, you’re not quite ready to splurge on the below, these pieces will most likely be on sale in the very near future. So you can always add them to the lust list for later. (Also, if you’re in Europe and still looking for these pieces and really don’t want to pay for the huge postage, check out Oleanda.

The Lingerie Guide How The High-Cut Stole Our Hearts December 15, 2015 There was a forgettable period of recent style that dropped waistlines to perilously low depths. Thongs and teeny strips of fabric were developed to make sure that while a butt crack may show, panty lines stayed hidden. If you were anything like me, even the vintage appeal of a high-waist was lost on those of a certain age, and any underwear that crept over the hips was deemed a “granny panty.” For whatever reason, the muffin top effect that these low briefs contributed to was more appealing than a higher cut. Thank god we all came to our senses. Now, I’m not saying that skimpy underthings certainly don’t have their place, but a high-cut bottom can be the most comfortable option for all different body types. I find that in a tighter dress that I don’t want to wear a slimming garment under, a higher cut brief tends to hold in those love handles a bit more, kind of creating a reverse muffin top effect. There is basically no body type that won’t be enhanced by a waist-defining and hip-minimizing cut. Going even further, some lines of slimming garments like Spanx and D’Mondaine have created their own high-waist panties, which is a great way to streamline curves under a pair of pants or in a tight garment. Not to mention, these days vintage styles are all the rage, and there is nothing that better suits a high-waist pant then a high-cut brief. Many brands established and new are coming up with creative ways to raise underwear waistlines, making sure there is a piece available within everyone’s budget and style. While typical granny panties were boring giant pieces of cloth, the modern high-cut brief comes in a range of styles that are perfect for any situation.

The Lingerie Guide The Last Minute Run Around | Wedding Night Lingerie December 22, 2015 Every bride has her perfect dress in mind, but with all of the other minute details that go into planning a wedding, sometimes wedding night lingerie gets forgotten. I got to experience this last year, when my friend called me in New York from her wedding venue in California absolutely freaking out because she forgot to buy lingerie. Now, I love pretty things and especially love buying them, but lingerie can be incredibly personal, especially when all I can think about is my best friends, well, using it. But of course I agreed, and then started to freak out. Luckily, the whole experience gave me some great insight on what to consider when buying wedding night goodies. BHLDN STARLET ROBE – $280 First of all, I had to think about my friend, and what her style is. Knowing that she liked simple styles but interesting cuts (and worked in fashion) helped me focus away from the complicated wedding night ensembles that are available. Instead, I opted for a simple sheer white chemise to give her something special, and focused on white bra and panty sets to spice up the look. Of course, that was the hard part! I know what I like in a bra, and luckily we are around the same size, so I tried on about 10 different options in a range of styles, including a few I wasn’t sure about. Of course, once I put them on, the ones I was least sure about ended up looking gorgeous, and it was easy to know which was the right one for my friend.

2016 is here, and with it comes new trends in lingerie. We have our eye on a few lines using jewellery to embellish their pieces, and some others that are using jewellery to create their pieces, but we can’t help but wonder if this is a passing fad or a trend with some staying power. The most common style we’ve noticed recently is the draping of gold and metallic chains. These added elements channel the vintage glamour of Victorian jewelry and 1920s headwear. They often play off of the material of the pieces they decorate or are worn alone to make a dramatic statement.

The recent expansion of the full-bust lingerie market has been a boon to women with larger busts, but well-fitting luxury pieces are still rare, particularly in sizes above a G cup. So imagine my delight when I stumbled across KH Intimates, whose Spring/Summer 2016 debut collection offers gorgeous, ethically manufactured lingerie crafted in sumptuous fabrics and laces, available in UK bra sizes 26-36 D-HH.

Everyone talks about the astounding statistic that nearly 80% of women are wearing the wrong size bra or an ill fitting bra. At J’adore we see women everyday with complaints of bands that are too tight, too loose or riding up, straps that are falling off the shoulder, cups that are too big or too small, sagging or overflowing. The list goes on and on.

I really like the idea of this dress. I have curves 34DD/36D-29waist-38hip i ordered a large & it fits good but if somone is a bigger than me it it wouldnt fit them. It is a tad snug in the bust area but not uncomfortable i can still move around & move my arms. I will warn you the dress is short so i plan to wear some yoga shorts underneath of it so that i dont give anyone a free preview of my vickies secrets :) Of course you guys know that the top is sheer/lace so i plan to wear a very full coverage black bra (grandma bra) so that i dont have any nip-slips . I would recommend that you do the same depending on which color dress you ordered. I absoloutely love this dress i bought it for my boyfriends bday celebration to wear to a concert lets hope its as functional on as it is cute& sexy :) either way i love it & i would definitely recommend this dress :) The only reason i didnt give it 5 stars is because i havent tested out the functionality of it yet (u know like moving around /dancing /sitting)

Ordered an extra small and fits as expected. Just the right length in front and back. Wore it to a group meeting for work and was asked by a woman I had never met before where I got it and what brand it was. I couldn’t remember who made it so I had her look at the tag. http://goo.gl/IB3DDh
