Been working on something new for the blog: a deep Been working on something new for the blog: a deep dive into lingerie fabrics, literally! I photographed over 20 pieces from my collection under a microscope so you can learn exactly:
- how jacquard fabrics get their pattern
- why silk satin is shiny but silk georgette isn't
- how cotton jersey's texture compares to polyester jersey
- and much more!

Pictured here: embroidered illusion tulle, silk chiffon, a ribbed synthetic blend, metallic lace, nylon stockings, and jacquard fabric. Lots more in the blog post - I'll link it in my story 🔗

Which of these close-ups most surprised you?

Not exaggerating when I say that these @marjolaine Not exaggerating when I say that these @marjolaine_lingerie silk trousers might well be the comfiest thing I've ever put on my body 👌

I'd had my eye on them for probably a year but they were kinda expensive - recently spotted they were both 30% off and down to the last pair in my size, so it was now or never. I'm glad I got them, I can already tell these are going to feel so lovely and cool in the summer heat!

The other @lovebravissimo bra that I reviewed is D The other @lovebravissimo bra that I reviewed is Dana, a front-close style (and I think only the second front close I currently own along with my super-old Bordelle Thorn?). It didn't work for me fit-wise, but I think that back would look cute styled under a light blue silk camisole in summer!

Also pictured: the Niya and Niya Lace bras, which actually have more differences than just the addition of lace. The full review is on the blog for all the details.

Which of these three bras is your favourite?

This Niya bra by @lovebravissimo is my new everyda This Niya bra by @lovebravissimo is my new everyday favourite one! It's a great moulded style for shallower bust shapes. The full review is up on the blog if you want to read more - link in my bio.

Would you believe I massively stained this right on the front of one of the cups by putting it, an apparently-not-very-colourfast black bra, and a damp facecloth next to each other in my suitcase on the way back from a trip? Four rounds of dye run remover later, you can barely tell. Lesson learned about putting wet things in a suitcase 😅🧳

A new installment in my #lingeriemixnmatch series A new installment in my #lingeriemixnmatch series (the first new one since 2023 😅). It's so very rare that I buy a bra or brief without a matching coordinate, but back in 2016 I was mesmerised enough by Agent Provocateur's Bubbles brief to buy it alone - on sale, so I guess maybe the bra was sold out already in my size? 

I didn't love it as much as I thought I would. Low-quality net and a gusset that doesn't come up anywhere near high enough to make it properly wearable (it's SO uncomfy). But I did still adore the design regardless so I kept it and just... never wore it.

Recently rediscovered it and had the idea to layer it. Turns out it's quite tricky to layer reds - my red lingerie is a real mix of hues, from orangey reds to bluish ones. This old Bras Without Wires set is a pretty close match though! Solves the (lack of) gusset issue, and the Bubbles brief adds visual interest to a cute but fairly basic bra set. 

How would you rate this pairing? 👍👎
