Valentines day has become, amongst us linger-istas, synonymous with the most overtly sexual underwear we can possibly find. It is loud, it is obnoxious, it is wonderful!
Now we all know I like my underwear to have a fetish leaning (or several) but we can’t always be prancing around in bad-ass strapping and leather detailing – well, we can but occasionally even I want to soften a little and show a little romance.
Fuller bust lingerie stockist, Knicker Locker, is really embracing the whimsical, soft, romantic trend this Valentine’s day. Knicker Locker are offering an array of florals prints and pastels colours in elegant styles that, as part of their Valentine’s Promotion, will come with a tasty treat and popping pink lip gloss. What more can a girl want?
Knicker Locker were kind enough to send me one of their Valentines Day selections, this beautiful lace Liliana by Tutti Rouge. The set is a soft cream shade with ivory lace ribbon details and soft cream lace detailing. It really is romantic through and through with Tutti’s signature heart-shaped adjusters and scalloped hems.
I’m wearing the bra in a 34HH and the fit is slightly off. Tutti Rouge typically comes up a tiny bit generous on the back and a little bit shallow in the cups. My boobs have been growing lately (blame my PT) and I could, perhaps, have sized up to J but sadly, HH is the biggest Tutti Rouge currently make.
That said, the back band is wide and supportive, sitting low on my back and the central gore sits flush against my chest. The only tell-tale sign of the cup being a little snug on me is the slight over spill at the top of the cup – it isn’t so much to prevent the bra being supportive and, as such, I can see me getting a lot of wear out of this set!
The pants are a 2XL and fit me perfectly as a size 18-20. I love the scallop detailing on them and the lace design that runs across my bottom. They’re almost shorts in shape but the sheerness give them a little va-va-voom of sex appeal without losing that whimsical romantic feel.
Both pants and bra are very comfortable and supportive – I can actually see this set making a great fuller bust bridal option and would definitely recommend this for brides who aren’t going strapless!
The set is priced at £29.50 for the bra and £15.50 for the short. I think this is a perfectly reasonable price for such a cute set that can be worn time and again after Valentines has passed.
Knicker Locker have some other great ranges on offer so please do check out their website. I’m particularly loving the Freya Fearne and Huit Plein Lew Jeux Magic.
They also have some really great boxers for any man in your life!
How will you be spending Valentines this year?
Full disclosure, my husband and I don’t celebrate it but I will be going out for Galentine’s brunch with the girls on Sunday and may just wear this set as a special treat to myself!
