Samples

Its been a long time since I posted, but I've been very busy.

This week I was sent two different bras to try. Firstly was the new Cleo T-Shirt bra. It looks cute, and apparently has been redeveloped because the last one was awful (it was.) Its been made to rival Freya's Deco t shirt bra, and the price is only £26.00 so a but less also. I got my usual 30F and my god was it small, the back was tiny, much more like a 28 and the cups were small too, I would have definitely needed as big as a G (which I am not) Its pretty and soft and I would say perfect for under a DD/E cup. I didn't feel there was enough support there-especially being an avid Deco wearer.

The second bra I was sent was the new Panache sports bra. I got my size again 30F. It was OK.. the cups seemed to not fit right and there was a lot of bagging. It also didn't seem like it was going to support me enough. I like to run at the gym and that would not be happening in this bra. So sadly, again I shall be sticking to my good old Freya!

Top Lingerie Sites

1. Leia which has a few shops across the UK including York and Cardiff. Leia is actually owned by the Eveden group (Fantasie and Freya) If you check the outlet they do such amazing offers or lingerie and especially swimwear. As soon as the season changes everything goes up to 75% off. I've got Freya bikinis for £20.00 and lingerie sets for £15.00. They currently have Deco in green, charcoal, pink and fushia pink for £15.00.

2. Bra Stop I think most people know about this fab site but just in case you don't its worth a good look. They stock brands such as Freya, Panache, Curvy Kate, Gossard, Fantasie, Pour Moi, Lepel.. the list is endless. You can put your size in the bra finder and see what's on offer. For example, they have the lovely Fiore in Pink in all 3 cup styles for just £12.95 and matching bottoms from £5.95,

3. Figleaves I think is the most popular but for good reason. It stocks everything you need. From pjs with built in support to men's sexy briefs they have everything. They have a fab range of maternity and mastectomy bras. They also have a good sale going, for example Chantelle at over half price off, which is a huge cut! They are without a doubt the most up to date and they always have the newest lingerie and swimwear available. They do next day delivery and free returns and having have a catalogue that you can sign up for. 

4. Bras and honey only stock Freya, Fantasie and Fauve but they do it well. The price cuts on bikinis and lingerie is up to 60% off which is fab. They have Freya Pier in pink at 50% off for just £16.50, you really can't complain.

5. The Lingerie Store have bras starting at just £2.99. The sizing isn't great and its mainly smaller cups but you can get brands such as Charnos and Discover Mademoiselle from £2.99 which is such a bargain. 

Ashlee

I've just decided that I'm not going to buy myself anything until my birthday which is the 3rd March. So anything I think I want to buy goes on the 'birthday list.' I really don't think this is going to work but I'm going to try my hardest. I'm trying to save up so I can go on a lovely extravagant holiday to Bali. I found this website that seems too good to be true.. http://www.travelbagasia.co.uk/ Does anyone have any tips?

Back to the lingerie. The first drop we have coming to the shops is Ashlee by Freya. It is so cute it will be going straight on my birthday list. It's in the same style as Deco which I seem to have a slight obsession with, anyway, I think you can see why..

Taylor

Taylor by freya is so gorgeous!

Just arrived today! Styled on deco, its black with gorgeous gold detail. I think it looks really expensive and not like a deco bra. Im not too keen on the high waist hold-me-in briefs. The bra is around £32.00 and there is a mathing thong & short. The short is seamless so perfect for tight dresses, and I also find them really handy for running? Our most popular range has been Nina by Freya (lovely pink leopard print.) It's flown out of the shop and we are debating whether to get any more in?

Next to drop in is Sharon by Fantasie. It looks really nice but not my cup of tea, I think its aimed more at the mature lady. I always find Fantasie knickers are so high up. The thongs are nearly around my tummy!

Red

I want this bra so bad!! The colour is amazing and will be so good for winter wear, its also really plunging so gives great cleavage while being smooth enough for t-shirts...perfect!! Its by Freya and called Deco. They do this bra in really plain colours and bring out these fab editions! Its great because the sizes start at a 28 and go to a 38 with cups starting at a B up to a GG!!
