Regal Romance.

Cardigan: Primark. Babydoll: c/o Plus Size Lingerie Boutique.

It's time for another lingerie/nightwear review! I've always loved pretty pieces but never felt like I was able to wear them but now I accept myself for who I am there is nothing I love more than pretty lace to dance around my bedroom in to my favourite play list (I bet you can guess what's mostly on it!) The lovely girls over at Plus Size Lingerie Boutique dropped an email in my inbox asking if I'd like to review something from their site and what a choice there was! so many styles and different looks but the lovely details on the Regal Romance Babydoll just called my name.

The fabric is soft to the touch and isn't scratchy or irritating on the skin, something you can often find with pieces like this. My only real fault is I'm not sure on the sizing I got a 3x/4x which is a us 18/20 (a UK 20-22) and I could have easily have gotten the size below as the cups don't sit well on me but I did make it work okay in the end. The straps are also only partially adjustable which for a short arse like me means they're a little loose but as I'm a little sewing bee I can make them tighter myself. Other than that I feel super cute in this and wish I could wear it all the time! I finished the look with my make up done properly, a classic matte red lip and my curled slightly.

Have you see anything you like on Plus Size Lingerie Boutique website? I've now got my eye on this retro beauty and maybe a few other pieces too!

Lovely Lace - Ninex Lingerie Review.

Bridget Black Lace Babydoll: c/o Ninex Lingerie.

 This is something in the past I'd shy away from because I don't own anything pretty to sleep or flounce around in (I don't think moomin bottoms and boyband tee count?) but when the lovely team at Ninex Lingerie contacted me to see if I'd like to review this adorable babydoll I just couldn't say no! I love anything with a pretty lace print and this is something else! I wish I could have gotten a nicer backdrop but this was the only place in the house I could find for now. 

It's wonderful to wear and really comfortable, I believe I sized up to a 22 (4xl) for this style and I'm glad I did as for nightwear I generally prefer it to skim over the body, which this does beautifully. As you can also see the bust and central lace panels are sheer so I popped on some minimal layers underneath, so there's no need to avert your eyes! Over all I utterly adore this piece and almost feel a little more grown up in this compared to my usual nightwear, so I decided to add some wave into my hair and a pretty flower and do a soft bronze smokey eye along with my usual red lip.

From shopping on the high street and taking a look online I know that pretty and well made (which with my sewing eye, I can see this is) is hard to come by and when you do finally hunt it down it can often cost a small fortune and particularly when you added plus sizes into the equation it is even more limited but this beautiful babydoll is only priced at £16.99 I couldn't quite believe how affordable everything on Ninex Lingerie is, I'm hoping I'll try a few more pieces in the future and I'm sure I'll be as impressed with them as I am with this lovely piece. :)
