Trying It On With Fuller Figure Fuller Bust's Pinup Girl Clothing Collection

Have you ever wanted to try on your friends' clothes?  I often see my pals looking uber-glamorous and can get some serious dress envy...so anytime I get the chance to try things on for myself I leap at the chance! 

Back in March I had the pleasure of spending the evening with the beautiful Georgina of Fuller Figure Fuller Bust and her boyfriend, Robbie.  George made us a yummy dinner and then we talked for a while before I could resist no longer and proceeded to raid her wardrobe!

What Katie Did Morticia and Mae Corsets

For some time now, I have been lusting over the gorgeous corsets available at What Katie Did.  I have seen them on several blogs, including (of course) Georgina's at Fuller Figure Fuller Bust.

In particular, I have been itching to try the Morticia corset.

The Dollydagger VIP Shopping Experience

Last week, I was fortunate enough to be invited to a very special evening.  A handful of bloggers were specially selected to taste the Dollydagger VIP Shopping Experience at their Brighton boutique so I headed coastbound just as fast as my car would carry me!

Freya Limbo Bikini

Summer's here!  Well...August is here.  Unfortunately the weather in the UK has left much to be desired for the last few months and there have been few opportunities for people to soak up the sun at the seaside, at the park or in the garden.  That is, until this weekend when the weather has miraculously improved and we're having a mini heatwave!

The previous poor weather hasn't stopped me from poring over the latest offerings from the various lingerie companies and one of the bikinis that has caught my eye this season is the delectable Freya Limbo.

Freya Lacey Bra

A few weeks ago I visited Leia Lingerie at Bluewater with the wonderful Georgina of Fuller Figure Fuller Bust. We had a great time trying on lots of lovely bras and I came away with three new ones, courtesy of Leia, and the one I am going to review here is the Freya Lacey.

Freya Lauren Bra

On my recent trip to Leia Lingerie with Georgina, I came away with three new bras. One of these was the Freya Lauren in black.

I was also lucky enough to receive a free Lauren in white at the recent Eveden Autumn/Winter 2012 launch. Suzanne kindly gave me a black pair of the shorts in XL to match my black Lauren as they didn't have any white in stock.

Eveden AW2012 Press Launch

I was recently fortunate enough to be invited to the Eveden Autumn/Winter 2012 press launch in London.  For those of you who don't know, Eveden is the group who owns several large lingerie brands including Freya, Fantasie, Fauve, Huit, Elomi and Goddess.  Naturally, I was absolutely thrilled to be invited and took the opportunity to meet up with some of my gorgeous blogging buddies along the way, including Georgina, Mhairi, Rosie, Kitty and Sophia.

A fabulous Friday fitting with Leia Lingerie

Good Friday 2012 turned out to be a great one for me as I spent the majority of it in the company of the wonderful Georgina of Fuller Figure Fuller Bust.  We had decided to have a day of lingerie shopping - what could be better?

We headed off to Bluewater shopping centre in Kent as we wanted to visit a Leia Lingerie store and this was our closest branch.

Not the right size for me - Naturally Close Underwired Multiway Bra

I have been wanting a strapless bra for many years.  Actually, a halterneck/multiway bra would be enough; just something that gives me more options with tops and dresses.  I have never worn a halterneck anything and would love to have the choice to be able to do so if I wanted.


These sorts of bras don't come around very frequently in my size so I had all but given up hope...until I spotted one in the latest Fashion World catalogue Naturally Close Underwired Multiway Bra.  Pictured in a gorgeous raspberry red, I read the description eagerly but very quickly gave up as I just knew it wouldn't work for me.
