gift guide

As always, my blog gift guide this year is a mix of some of my very favourite pieces I’ve seen over the course of the year, plus some things that I just think are great for gifting. There are metallics, velvets, festive reds and icy ivories… plus ideas whether you’re looking for something cosy, glam, or not lingerie at all.

This is mainly intended to be a list of gift suggestions and yes, I pick some items specifically for their festive twist. But I also like to think of these annual guides (especially the ‘luxury’ ones) as a summary of some of the most creative, interesting and beautiful pieces I’ve spotted over the course of the year.

I’m still working my way through my gift shopping, so if you are too, here are some of my favourite lingerie or lingerie-themed gift ideas for this winter season. There are options included from an XXS up to a UK 28 (US 24) or 3XL, plus a number of size-free accessories.

This is my second and final holiday lingerie gift guide, just in time for you to take advantage of any Black Friday deals these brands may be running tomorrow and this coming weekend.

It’s time for my first annual gift guide, which has ideas from below £10 to just under £100 and includes some smaller treats which are lingerie themed – perfect if you don’t know your recipient’s clothing size or just want to get them something different.

There’s something particularly lovely about owning a garment that was made just for you, but we don’t all have the budget for bespoke lingerie. That’s where custom embroidery offers a nice alternative – it’s way cheaper than ordering something truly bespoke, but still feels more special than a purely off-the-rack item.

Last week I shared my top lingerie gift recommendations under £100, and now it’s time to turn my attention to the luxury suggestions. There’s both showstopping bra sets and decadent loungewear galore to choose from, and the more you scroll down, the more breathtaking things get!

From smaller treats to indulgent loungewear, here are twenty lingerie gift ideas that I feel offer particularly great value for money – whether their appeal be an eye-catching design, a luxury fabric at an affordable price point, or just something any lingerie aficionado is sure to appreciate.

Lovehoney’s Captivate line is an official collaboration with the Fifty Shades of Grey franchise. This season, they’ve added two great new ranges to it – Flocked Mesh, which features a classic black and gold colour palette with lavish chain and ring details, and Chiffon, for those after a softer and more romantic vibe.

Still on the hunt for the perfect holiday present? This won’t come as any surprise, but I think lingerie and loungewear is ideal for gifting. And not only for a romantic partner but for friends and family too – it’s not even necessary to know their bra size, because there’s so much more to lingerie than simply bra sets!
