<div style="text-align: center;">
This next review is on a set that has been out a few seasons now and has to be by far my favourite from the possibly one of my favourite brands, <a href="https://www.curvykate.com/scantilly-lingerie" target="_blank">Dear Scantilly</a>.<br />
<br />
Now I have quite the Scantilly collection, which I will post about on a different post, but my absolute favourite is the leather look <a href="https://www.curvykate.com/scantilly-unleash-black-half-cup-bra" target="_blank">Unleash</a>, a demi cup bra which fits me perfectly.<br />

The bra whilst being a demi cup holds in all my breast tissue, whilst keeping the cleavage on show so it looks great under clothes as well as on show! The details with the buckle at the front and the rose gold throughout (a signature of the brand) the details continue onto the high waisted pants with a buckle on the back.<br />

<br />
The pants have a sheer section on the top half of the pants makes the back look like a heart! The leather look fabric is only on the front of the set, which part of me wishes went all the way round on the pants as well the the bra but both are so comfy as is and it's a set I have multiples of!<br />
As mentioned the fit on me is perfect and I wear a size 34H in pretty much every bra I own, and the pants as with all my Dear Scantilly bottoms they are a size large and they fit as I like, they don't dig in anywhere and they are so comfy!<br />
<br />
I have also taken this set when I have gone for my pictures taken with Nicola from <a href="http://www.myboudoir.co.uk/" target="_blank">My Boudoir</a> (I highly recommend going if you can! I'll do a post on my visits at some point!) Here are a couple of photo's taken in this set.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
So this is far too long in coming but I'm promising myself that I will be uploading at least twice a month! And for August I'm going to look at the perfect everyday essential bras! Starting with my favourite right now, the Curvy Kate Ellace. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After a little bit of research many thanks to the girls at <a href="http://www.bigcuplittlecup.net/" target="_blank">Big Cup Little Cup</a> as that's where I found when the bra first came onto the market which was AW15, I thought it was around that time but wanted to be sure! The style came out originally in black and champagne, now I will admit I didn't buy this back then, I was still very wary of curvy kate bras as I haven't had the best time with them in the past. </div>

I have owned the black colour way for the best part of almost two years and which I am probably due a new one by now but it is still wearable as I own many many bras! After realising how the black was I decided I had to get a few other colours so the next colour released in the style was latte which is a skin coloured shade (not mine though) which was very handy to own as I used to work in white shirts so I lived in what brands called 'nude' </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
My main concern when trying the same bra in different colours is that sometimes they can fit differently, most of the time the same bra can fit in a few different sizes in the varying different colours which can sometimes be a bit of a pain anticipating being the same size in each one. However I found that latte and the black fit the same, the band is firm without being too tight, the best part for me is the stretch lace, this at the top is perfect for any slight shifts in size throughout the span of the bra.<br />
When I purchased the Latte I also decided I wanted the white one too, now I'm not normally a fan of white lingerie, I personally think that no matter how many times you wash them I feel they stain very easily! but alas I thought the white was such a nice colour so I brought myself it too.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFgJt4vWVjjXlXxMaX7uqfMlYIFbUHzFXEBEapTpRZrbMlXN_gBDzVaMtooSoHMuJL_SacVqsoNz5Ry3jhBRzdPMfbkUb8e9bNBHQ9xbLFIrenV_32CkT2D0DxKwwJ-aMTLN9nRzuc3O0/s1600/IMG_5641.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1544" data-original-width="1160" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFgJt4vWVjjXlXxMaX7uqfMlYIFbUHzFXEBEapTpRZrbMlXN_gBDzVaMtooSoHMuJL_SacVqsoNz5Ry3jhBRzdPMfbkUb8e9bNBHQ9xbLFIrenV_32CkT2D0DxKwwJ-aMTLN9nRzuc3O0/s320/IMG_5641.JPG" width="240" /></a></div>
As with the black and the latte I got myself my trusty 34H and it was a perfect fit and matched the fit of the other colours, I find that sometimes different colour ways in the same style of bra can sometimes alter slightly size wise and with the three I had so far of this style all fit the same!<br />
The next colour I purchased was the mulberry and this one had a bravissimo exclusive high waisted bottoms so I HAD to buy the set (I'm a sucker for high waisted pants!) Please please please Curvy Kate make them in every colour way!! As per the previous 3 ellace colour ways the mulberry fits the same and is just as comfortable as are the pants!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
And because I couldn't resist I had to buy the nave once it came out and when I purchased it I decided to get the pink as well because I have an obsession with trying the fill my house with as many bras as possible! (and because of how comfy this style is!)<br />

<br />
Now the only gripe I have is the regular briefs, I sent all the ones I order back because I'm not a fan of pants that don't cover my tummy and the matching briefs would have ended up rolling under my belly and thats never a good thing!<br />
However the bra itself is one I absolutely recommend if you can grab one! the stretch lace, the firmness of the band and the lace detailing make it an everyday bra that looks and feels good on!<br />
All colours are available on the <a href="https://www.curvykate.com/search/go?w=ellace" target="_blank">Curvy Kate</a> website, the latte, pink and mulberry colour ways are in the sale!</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now onto a brand who I once thought I would never be able to wear, I'd always admired the pieces but always found they would never fit me right but praise the lingerie gods for around the past 3-4 years nearly every style I have tried from Curvy Kate has been pretty much a perfect fit! And I wear my Daily Dream every day in my day job (which is in a restaurant) the fit and the functionality of the bra for under a white shirt is amazing.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But enough of that and onto the new, I always look forward to seeing Curvy Kate because the staff are always lovely and the models are always so pretty!!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The lovely Sally from Curvy Kate showed us through both the main collection and the Scantily line which I will do a completely separate post on (I do own a lot of scantily because it is pretty awesome!) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm going to start with a style which will be coming to Large Cup Lingerie in June, a new staple which looks like it will do very very well for the brand is Victory, coming in black (and Latte but the latter not at LCL just yet!) The 4 part construction is something they haven't tried before and pre sales show that it could be something they do on future styles as it is flying out the door! </div>

Next the Luxe, now having owned this since it came out I can say it has amazing support, I honestly haven't had enough use out of mine to give it a better review but hopefully I will be able to get my hands on the new Ivory colour way in a size that will fit me, I will be putting a video of the lovely Laura Butler who demonstrated the amazing support and hold of this bra by doing cartwheels across the floor here at Moda on my Twitter soon which is @RuthsRoom for anyone interested in following me on there (I do post a lot of boob related stuff as well as some rubbish!) </div>

The inside of the nude is a lovely shade of pink and some of the details on the outside are also pink, I am unsure if this is the same for the black though.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This also comes in a fashion print which is very geometric.<br />

I spoke about the daily dream being my go to bra earlier and the fashion colour way for AW17 is a beautiful indigo blue which looks very denim like and has a contrasting purple trim which again I look forward to owning!<br />

Now I have the mention and show the tease which is a style that has been around for a long long one time! Cha remembers owning the Lemon and Black which was one of the first colours it came out in. Sally mentioned they tried to leave it out for a season or two but there was a bit of uproar so they gave it a few tweaks and brought it back again (rather like one of the desserts at where I work, if that went from the menu I think people would stop coming to us it's that good!)<br />

Well well well, it's been a while since I've been able to post on here, unfortunately life has gotten in the way so many times but from now on, I WILL make time to try and get at least one post every two weeks!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now onto the blog post!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Myself and Cha from Large Cup Lingerie are back at Moda and looking a the different collections coming this Autumn Winter season, and I am starting my Moda posting off with the Tutti Rouge styles s well as their new range "Rougette"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now Tutti Rouge are the brand I first review we'd on my blog, the Lilliana has come out in so many colours since that very first pink colour. <a href="http://thechangingroomdiaries.blogspot.co.uk/2013/07/a-fruity-tutti-start-part-one-first.html" target="_blank">My very first blog post!</a> Looking back at this at point would have upset me because I was a little slimmer back then but having gained weight I have gained some confidence which is mainly due to the fact that there are so many people promoting body positivity (still some nasty people out there) but the vast majority are.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now onto the new pieces from Tutti, now my favourite is the Talia, the abstract floral print stands out so well against the black background of the bra, and the plunge style looks like it will be a good style that will work for people of different shapes and sizes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAz99s2xco88h8K716dffZLlLWe7_93mDAk9Il11DOMeIuHNuiN5XA1fLIOtAxfJWkGSq7vdkvf6jPhkq8zpQ3DSBiZRyloHbbKawbiI0g-CPF6DQgBuPMq5-HhW3WvI8vftacJyiLVRU/s1600/image.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiAz99s2xco88h8K716dffZLlLWe7_93mDAk9Il11DOMeIuHNuiN5XA1fLIOtAxfJWkGSq7vdkvf6jPhkq8zpQ3DSBiZRyloHbbKawbiI0g-CPF6DQgBuPMq5-HhW3WvI8vftacJyiLVRU/s320/image.jpeg" width="240" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Minx is my second favourite, due to the fact it comes with a pair of high waisted bottoms and I do love a good pair of high waisted pants! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
Lastly I have a thing for bralettes at the minute, although in most if I want to to wear them out the house they do need a bra underneath as they don't tend to offer a lot of support, the Elvie is an all over lace padded bralette which is so soft to the touch and looks amazing on all the promo pictures I would be amiss not to like this one.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSFxclIIwqLtzpSJlxPojVn__YsjZtm1213AS4IzN2uAzkuP1QMrTF9pCNOkASQxbFpQErTv6PmZx7Zfsa9SaQRiFSLh00E4c8yZe6TUa-g4l1H98g56Y_LMLhDGfZ0We55ftHX2qVQ0E/s1600/image.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSFxclIIwqLtzpSJlxPojVn__YsjZtm1213AS4IzN2uAzkuP1QMrTF9pCNOkASQxbFpQErTv6PmZx7Zfsa9SaQRiFSLh00E4c8yZe6TUa-g4l1H98g56Y_LMLhDGfZ0We55ftHX2qVQ0E/s320/image.jpeg" width="240" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
Now onto the new line, the only style from the main Tutti line to go up past a 38 band has been the Lilliana, Jessica the Founder of the brand has listened to the feedback from customers and has expanded back sizes by creating the new range "Rougette" which launches July 2017.<br />
<br />
One colour way/print which we have a seen a lot today is leopard and the Erica is one of my favourite pieces seen today, the shape is slightly vintage and the finishing details are something that Tutti always manage to get right, plus the briefs are again high waisted which scores big ticks across the board for me!!<br />
<br />

Lastly the piece in which Cha liked is the Ashley, which is a stunning shade of blue (cannot say exact shade but the blue was was nice and bold!) Another bralette, which will have an extra lining from the sample we saw today.</div>

Now I'm looking forward to getting my hands on the Sukki in the Ivory which will be out around April time, (no photo of this one though) The caging is detachable and will work well under my everyday workwear white shirts!<br />
I do hope I will be able to get my hands on some of the styles mentioned in this post, if there any tutti pieces you'd like to try please let me know and I will try to get my hands on them and puts something up.<br />

This has been a long time coming but I'm finally able to start to look at reviewing the Dear Scantily pieces I have been collecting, in the terms of Pokemon I gotta catch them all! Because let's face it the pieces they are putting out are amazing, highly detailed with beautiful fabric choices, carefully crafted, and each piece has is rose gold S stamp of approval! </div>

Let me introduce you to the Invitation set, in the pink/black colour way from the very first season of Scantilly, this is pretty much a style unheard of for those of us larger chested ladies, a Demi cup?! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The tantalising shape of this makes it pretty difficult to be an everyday bra but it's just too pretty to be put to one side and only brought out for specials occasions. Having brought this when it first came out it took me a little while before I wore it out, the pants are still yet to be worn outside other than for a photo shoot with the amazing Nicola at My Boudoir but it still is a firm favourite for me.</div>

I have the bra in a 32HH which fits me perfectly, if a little snug when it gets to that time of the month! But the cup is perfect, a giving uplift and coverage yet being seriously sexy and giving you the 'on a platter' look. The fabric feels amazing to tough so soft and satiny, and the intricate details including intricate lace work on the cups, and rose gold on the straps as well as on the signature 's' on the bow in the centre of the bra as well as all matching bottoms. For those thinking about trying this I would recommend sticking with your regular size, because while you may feel like you are falling out, that's the effect this bra is going for. For instance wearing it for the Moda Party this week I felt like I was flashing everyone! But I was completely covered and encased the entire evening, even with a bit of dancing involved (sat down dancing but it still counts!) </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now onto the bottoms, I chose the pants which were a little risky and provocative as they have a rather large hole in the derrière! I think the brand refers to them as the bare faced brief,</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The pants seen here in one of the fabulous photos taken my the lovely Nicola at My Boudoir, (hair and make up Sarah Elliot) they are a little on the small side (not size wise though) for someone who is used to a larger pant, let' me honest I am a lover of the so called 'granny pants' I just prefer to wear something that goes a little higher up on my body and I can't help it! That being said although these do not go up to me waist they are ok to wear and they don't dig in and leave marks, for size reference I got these in a large, I think I could have size down to the medium. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Overall this set is surprisingly one of the comfiest sets I own, whilst being highly sexy and giving me one hell of a boost in confidence! Not one I can wear daily, but still a great piece to have as an option. </div>

<br /></div>
It's been far too long but I'm going to type these whilst being in Birmingham so I can get them to you as I see them. So first up from Moda's opening day is Panache, and I'll be posting some of my favourite pieces from the main Panache line as well as Panache Black, Panache Sport.
First up is a bra that is known all over to those who are fuller busted, the panache tango, a bra that has come out in a vast variety of colours is coming out in a lovely navy with gold detailing. Now my personal view of the tango is that the fabric on previous versions has been rather rough and irritating to my sensitive skin but this is a lot softer, which could be a slightly different fabric blend or the dye used can sometimes affect the fabric differently but this is a lot smoother in comparison to previous years. What I do enjoy about this is the colour, and a lot of the pieces that I have seen so far is the hues of blue/teal, a colour which I think isn't used as much in lingerie but can be a good alternative to black.

Next on my list is the Ava, one bra I miss a great deal is the Andorra plunge, it was discountined a while ago and while the Andorra still remains popular it isn't a shape I get along with, the higher gore paired with the complete coverage isn't something that agrees with my breast shape which is why Ava excited me simply because she is based on the plunge Andorra, and I love grey so this should be a winner.</div>

And lastly I couldn't do a panache post without mentioning the award winning sports bra, which will be expanding it's size range later this year, with some band sizes heading up to a J cup great news for many, but don't be downhearted if your size isn't available, while it may not be around now, panache is a great brand for listening to customer feedback, this expansion has come about through feedback and if there is the demand I'm sure they would possibly look towards testing out even more sizes. </div>

Two great ones coming out is the neon pixel which is a favourite of mine, and the blue marl, the latter only coming in the non wired style.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Kicking off my Moda posts this time I am starting with a brand that was a little under wraps last time round, a small collection has gained a few pieces and is slowly coming out of it's shell and what a shell it is!</span></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Scantilly come from the people behind Curvy Kate, and is pretty much the naughty older sister and when I say naughty I really mean it! These pieces are not for the faint hearted, there's peek a boos, bottomless briefs and even something that can leave you all wrapped up. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The Scantilly brochure is a prized possession, each piece comes with it's own story, with each day bringing about a new parcel for our lovely model Lottie, who makes the pieces look amazing. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Seeing the pieces brought to life on the lovely Laura Butler this time (Last Moda we saw Lottie) </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'm going to start with my favourite piece, having seen Peek A Boo in black in AW15 seeing it in red I fell in love right away, red is a favourite colour of mine I knew I HAD to have this, (I've even joked that I will be stalking all the sites selling it and if it sells out before I can get it I'll make my way to Scantilly offices and beat their door down! I love it so much) </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinLJWg-YtTXdwQRmk9p_2X_X6Tz4ludbamEMWa1feKSphWyueb12ZOmKb3f5eaioIthr8m80TEtGDutVNGzNKZTKR0q8JFAVuOohRC5VqqzXiBJ1PdCl0KFaRdIDqD5k8d42kjTt__9wo/s1600/IMG_3992.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: black;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinLJWg-YtTXdwQRmk9p_2X_X6Tz4ludbamEMWa1feKSphWyueb12ZOmKb3f5eaioIthr8m80TEtGDutVNGzNKZTKR0q8JFAVuOohRC5VqqzXiBJ1PdCl0KFaRdIDqD5k8d42kjTt__9wo/s320/IMG_3992.jpg" width="240" /></span></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So unfortunately the colour isn't as showing as much as it should do in my photos, its an amazing vibrant red, (see end of the post for the black version out in AW15 on Lottie)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Onto the cheekier side and the AMAZING bottom! See why they called it Peek A Boo?! Now this may not be too everyone tastes but if we are being completely honest these aren't your everyday briefs, the set does come with briefs that do have a covered bum, for those times where you need to cover yourself but for those cheekier moments I think these will be perfect.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Next for the season is the AMAZING real demi cup Invitation, I say real demi cup because it very low so would defiantly not be a bra for everyday purposes as they could be a hint of nip (as Laura said) </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The last piece in the new collection includes a basque to figuratively die for, rose gold embroidery and a harness type strappy detail along the top of the cup, I think this is going to be a big seller for the brand and I do wonder if thats the aim with the piece. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The collection itself screams decadence and seduction, it's nice to see styles like this in these sizes, Scantilly is limited to 30-38 DD-HH and bottoms are S-XL but please this is a new brand only just coming out this AW15 (the three styles mentioned in this post are SS16) </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">And the marketing strategy is genius, within the elusive brochure each piece in each part of the collect so AW15 starts on Monday and is about a parcel of delectable underwear being delivered each day from an unknown sender, and we are hoping to figure out who the sender is, the story makes it's way to Saturday where in the SS16 collection where #ScantillyTales will take place and a competition to finish the story of Scantilly will happen. I shall post more details on this when the time arrives. But for now, which pieces are people looking forward to? And more importantly what do you ladies think? Would you wear any of the pieces? </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My sincere apologies that this has been a long time coming! My work life has taken over and not left me with much time to wear and review my other pretties, too many people are eating out! (I work in a restaurant) But I have a day off so here is my first review of the summer season! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'm starting with a piece that caught my eye at Moda last August, Tutti Rouge were bringing out the Janey who is this bold, bright and beautiful, and very much like a bikini as I remember mentioning to Jessica Tutti's Creative Director.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now my first attempt was a 34HH and the shorts in a large but I quickly discovered the bottoms were a tad too small and the bra on the big side, so a quick snap of some photos and I emailed them across to tutti towers and we decided that I would ship them back and get some different sizes.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">About a week later the 32HH bra and XL shorts arrived and they both fit wonderfully! My favourite set of the year by far! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgH08DxYHMGRXfKExFDSJ8OY-Kg2KSxZU449-9bXIBc0LaaHeSmRprinEKpVnENoFkXLPS6KqAuuxY855U_VgunvJ1tq7ybb8hLC6q6W72pZUT_lDleoN_o26zjtzQOtg2Q1qAuLc6NNqA/s1600/IMG_3418.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: black;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgH08DxYHMGRXfKExFDSJ8OY-Kg2KSxZU449-9bXIBc0LaaHeSmRprinEKpVnENoFkXLPS6KqAuuxY855U_VgunvJ1tq7ybb8hLC6q6W72pZUT_lDleoN_o26zjtzQOtg2Q1qAuLc6NNqA/s320/IMG_3418.jpg" width="240" /></span></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The bra band is spot on, a nice firmness which I can see lasting for a very long time, and the cups whilst being a little more east vs west than I am used too it it still a great shape for me and really does work under the majority of my clothes. </span></div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The XL bottoms also fit so well, the coverage at the back is great my whole butt is covered, and there isn't a high amount of muffin top digging over the top, I would prefer them to be a little higher waisted but thats because that is what I prefer these days as it is what I wear on a day to day basis but I can still wear these and be very comfy. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This is such an eye-catching set, even though it isn't a bikini, it still could worn for maybe sunbathing in your back yard, I know I would if I had the time too ;) it's too good to keep hidden away! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">*Bra costs £39.50 and is available from the <a href="http://tuttirouge.bigcartel.com/product/janey-tropical-print" target="_blank">Tutti Rouge Big Cartel Store</a> as are the shorts and they are £19.50* </span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Tutti Rouge</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">'Kiss and Tell' is the next instalment from Tutti, following the 'High Hopes' which is about to start making it's way into shops now. The 'Kiss and Tell collection includes some pretty bright bold and fun colours with a storyline inspired by 'Frivolous Fun' as well as 'The Thrill of The Chase!'</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhs5czXo_ytf7yJOtSkATrRrAFZM7xjQNmd07sMh8Xh1vwJJ4vzKc2ku1GDpsWKEteIoXgNhzf7z_TvM_-eMSnyepQbvudXPyOiJs-9wPI0nL0Le9ORrF3cDB80mwTSzCiVrP62K2XXPQ4/s1600/IMG_2497.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: black;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhs5czXo_ytf7yJOtSkATrRrAFZM7xjQNmd07sMh8Xh1vwJJ4vzKc2ku1GDpsWKEteIoXgNhzf7z_TvM_-eMSnyepQbvudXPyOiJs-9wPI0nL0Le9ORrF3cDB80mwTSzCiVrP62K2XXPQ4/s1600/IMG_2497.JPG" width="320" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Tutti has their set styles which are their core collection, and what a collection they have, ranging from the half padded plunge in 'Lilianna' to 'Nichole' the non padded semi sheer bra, soft and satiny belongs to the padded plunge 'Beatrice' and Padded balconette Betty, lace comes in the form of 'Fifi', and new to the group is 'Jessica' the non padded plunge with added cleavage 'cookies' </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">All of the colours for AW15 are bright and eye catching for instance,</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> Beatrice in Emerald/Noir is my stand out for this collection, I adore green and it's a rare sight to see green in the fuller bust lingerie market so this has me pretty happy and I can't wait for it to wing it's way into my house. As we've all come to know and love it has the detailing we have come to in a way expect from the brand, the small touches that make it a Tutti piece.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Next comes Nicole who I must admit when first came out I didn't really take a shine to but this Cobalt Noir I'm fawning over I love the shade of blue it's seemingly a slightly darker royal blue than often seen, but a really great shade and something different from black. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I will admit I didn't take a photograph of the Emerald/Pink colour way, but the colour is exceptional just like the colour of the beatrice, and the pink is so different it clearly stands out. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Seeing the creme up close is nice too and the creme is a continuity colour for this style.</span></div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Liliana's bright colour this coming season is Magenta/Scarlet a lovely bold pink with sharp red ribbon detailing. This is a style I get along well with due to the plunge shape and the stretch lace at the top. I think it's an excellent shape for nearly almost all sizes and the plunge gives a great hint of cleavage without being too over the top!</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwmQ0ovUPbDdjGJu4P3DLYAo8vAjt41sN5AKkZEAatt99zLhsnIBzgP7chlt89q8YSKGPkhsZVOpKzjFrgXfA8IAttA_zaLsecEj8DoA50CCcecKnQlUMZJGZJzIM3gJgi6YfTSjieLgk/s1600/IMG_2370.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: black;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwmQ0ovUPbDdjGJu4P3DLYAo8vAjt41sN5AKkZEAatt99zLhsnIBzgP7chlt89q8YSKGPkhsZVOpKzjFrgXfA8IAttA_zaLsecEj8DoA50CCcecKnQlUMZJGZJzIM3gJgi6YfTSjieLgk/s1600/IMG_2370.jpg" width="240" /></span></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This bright Scarlet beauty is Fifi an unpadded balconette with wild animal bows and an adorable keyhole in the briefs. The added impact for Fifi is the bra is sheer adding to the impact of what could be a plainer looking bra into something which is quite cheeky and creats a touch more 'sex appeal' </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Another Balconette style for the brand is Betty who is in the luxurious floral printed satin fabric, contrasting teal leaves with different shades of pink with added frills on the band of the bra and along the top of the cups. This version of Betty is far cry from the original which came in a cream colour while was still had a floral pattern the colours in this make it stand worlds apart.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Lastly is the Jessica, the newest weapon in Tutti's arsonal, the non padded plunge with uplifting 'cookies' to put that little extra umph! The nude and black colour way makes me think this is smouldering and the hints of red in the details just adds a little extra. This is described in shoe terms by Tutti as being 'The Platform' not something for everyday but something that adds a certain 'wow' to an outfit, and I really think this will.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Another strong season for Tutti Rouge, I feel each yeah they are becoming more and more well know and well loved by the masses, some of the prints styles and colours make me think of the underwear in high street stores which would never fit me but I would always really want to own, and now I can own something better! A Tutti set that will fit and flatter me! </span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">One brand I couldn't wait to see was the lovely <a href="http://www.tuttirouge.com/" target="_blank">Tutti Rouge</a>, they are the brand I reviewed first, we came out around the same time so I tried to make a point to try as many of their styles as I could get my hands on (which as it turned out to be not a lot) But I have always admired and kept a close eye on what they planned on bringing out, so checking out their SS15 line at Moda made me vow to try harder and get my hands on more styles because what I saw from a growing brand was in my eyes a game changer. 'High Hopes' is pretty much my favourite collection seen at Moda. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Starting with my ultimate favourite, Tallulah Tattoo, a half padded balconette with a tattoo print on a cream base, now being a tattoo fan this is adorable and the stand out of the bunch. The details in which Tutti seem to pride themselves on are ever present, cute bow details and the 'High Hopes' logo in the print, they always think of everything.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_BoGsxd0y20U_xbjldIcYL5rUDbSY_pRLzsRhTqNNy0bbpXjDG2R6Liz4Wuc8ONjykIk7F2gSm_CNQP8Xf7058c_mJBhpJF0lWredrksHtNETz48e6cq6-psyh097qaoNTVtaP7MKnFw/s1600/IMG_0664.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: black;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_BoGsxd0y20U_xbjldIcYL5rUDbSY_pRLzsRhTqNNy0bbpXjDG2R6Liz4Wuc8ONjykIk7F2gSm_CNQP8Xf7058c_mJBhpJF0lWredrksHtNETz48e6cq6-psyh097qaoNTVtaP7MKnFw/s1600/IMG_0664.jpg" width="240" /></span></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now another Tallulah is Sunrise, it seems one of Tutti's colours for next year is Yellow and while I may not go for it personally I do love it mixed with the pink, it is defiantly summery as well as a pick for the season.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOKNgDKbpF84XU6_DY0BQDa1eD9PoFyUmm-DaIDCypl_LOdD0HNuDBvzT8t-DuYUoIjmUoINRIC4jcEzbTk_nOloKHO_7OwtRs-vq3IwHJumOCmQkL2Esr1JqTGsYO9FBEbYEdNnzXXxI/s1600/IMG_0666.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: black;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgOKNgDKbpF84XU6_DY0BQDa1eD9PoFyUmm-DaIDCypl_LOdD0HNuDBvzT8t-DuYUoIjmUoINRIC4jcEzbTk_nOloKHO_7OwtRs-vq3IwHJumOCmQkL2Esr1JqTGsYO9FBEbYEdNnzXXxI/s1600/IMG_0666.jpg" width="240" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">One of the fashion colours for the Liliana is yellow with pink detailing which I think can be used as a mix and match with the above Tallulah Sunrise.</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCsVYFGH8d-ukJYn4bws_babqmHGgSNDQJSynUwICGkjbNlp5WfzKOPaMuhzg4sLjI-XdAvSwVfHGWKWsQC9tjf1i6xW6ZiPQufvgJNA2o_zf4m6RnRfzIrxmdwwlG3qMQZFFwRXLSi_w/s1600/IMG_0667.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: black;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCsVYFGH8d-ukJYn4bws_babqmHGgSNDQJSynUwICGkjbNlp5WfzKOPaMuhzg4sLjI-XdAvSwVfHGWKWsQC9tjf1i6xW6ZiPQufvgJNA2o_zf4m6RnRfzIrxmdwwlG3qMQZFFwRXLSi_w/s1600/IMG_0667.jpg" width="240" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Another big favourite of mine is Janey, she's bright bold and beautiful, at first I thought it was more of a bikini print but as a summer set it works, and I can see it as one that might end up being shown, because something this pretty should not be kept hidden under clothes! (Not an excuse to walk down the street in your underwear apparently!) And the short have some adorable ruching which works so well.</span><br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Also coming out next year will be more colours in the Nichole and Beatrice, as well as a 'pacific blue' and 'hibiscus blue' Liliana. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">What I love about Tutti is their ability to mix fun bold colours with practical styles and each line comes with it's own storyline, making them in a league of their own. It's a brand that brings out the utter girly girl in me and I love it! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">And I also have a new adorable mirror to keep in my handbag! (The sweets were eaten on my train home) </span></div>

<span style="color: blue; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In this short series of posts I am going to be showing you sneak peaks at what is to come next year from some of the brands I love, I've spent a day at Moda in Birmingham looking at and cooing over some amazingly beautiful pieces of lingerie and I am going to start my round up with Curvy Kate.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now even though this brand can be a bit hit or miss with me, after speaking with Hannah and some of their other staff what's to come might actually be a great turning point (unless your my wallet!) having tweaked some of their designs due to customer feedback I'm very excited at the prospect of trying as many of the styles for next season as I can!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Starting with a style similar to one I have tried before, Cascade is a style which looks a lot like the Gaia, having listened to the feedback the brand tell me they have altered the fit slightly, making the shape better overall, having somewhat flattened the top part of my breasts the last time I tried it I was happy to hear that they had looked at this and changed something in the design that will hopefully stop this happening. The colour way for next year also excites me, the bold and bright turquoisey blue is great for summer as it's nice and vibrant.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">(Please excuse my photos, the lighting is all off and doesn't quite bring out the colours as great as they were in person) </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Another stand out for me is the Bardot, which comes as a balcony bra as well as this beautiful babydoll, the thing I love about this and I made a point to ask about is the sheer cups, they are sheer for all sizes. Which is great! I find that most other brands tend to add an extra lining to their sheer cups which makes them out to be a completely different bra, in my opinion. This not having that addition lining is nice to see. The intricate embroidered detailing at the top in a lovely violet colour adds another dimension, and the satin edging at the bottom is a nice finishing touch. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My last big favourite on the Lingerie side of Curvy Kate is the Arizona, now this is based on the daily boost (big big big fail on me) but as with a lot of their styles they have worked on the niggles and slightly altered (it does still look a little wide for me, but i will still try it) I love the denim look and the spotty edging is a fun little addition. So I really do hope this one will work for me! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">(And Lottie looked amazing in it, as she did everything I got to see her in!) </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now a couple of swimwear pieces I liked, I haven't reviewed any swimwear yet, mainly because I can't swim but I just haven't really found anything that I really love to want to give it a go. One thing I enjoyed about pretty much all of the swimwear Curvy Kate had to offer was the fact that everything was pretty much mix and match, you could take pieces and change them up which makes for more options! Below are some pretty bad (my apologies) photos of Beach Bloom, Moonflower and Cocoloco :) </span><br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Recently I tried a brand that I have only looked at and never tried myself and this brand was <a href="http://madeinpreston.com/" target="_blank">Made In Preston</a>, they ran a offer I just could not refuse. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Made in Preston are a UK based brand who produce their items in the UK and are designed for those of use who don't quite fit into high street brands because of our breasts. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Having had my eye on the brand for a while I recently decided to use the buy one get one free (now expired, but they have ran it before) which is too good to miss out on. And with them being from the UK made me want to try them a little more. Now even at the age I am now, 24 my personal opinion of the styles that came up were a little 'young' (I'm feeling old lady like already) But one staple style I feel that no matter how old you are you can pull off if it's right is a peplum pencil dress, seen here. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-owTP7-wXdpIOLPfK-nCT3PxSjED5JfAv03kpIohEKLUugm_xLLePebBKq5TTZzqdAPa7TpP0GZgXNqnqYDToSraZWFlw0CgjzB0krhRrhtDg61TWCDTqudVcnXlqEfsIWF5bP9B897s/s1600/Screen+Shot+2014-07-18+at+00.59.07.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-owTP7-wXdpIOLPfK-nCT3PxSjED5JfAv03kpIohEKLUugm_xLLePebBKq5TTZzqdAPa7TpP0GZgXNqnqYDToSraZWFlw0CgjzB0krhRrhtDg61TWCDTqudVcnXlqEfsIWF5bP9B897s/s1600/Screen+Shot+2014-07-18+at+00.59.07.png" width="197" /></a></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So this of course I had to purchase, red is pretty much my favourite colour and I wanted something smart that I could possibly wear to my work experience placement or job interviews. (This style also comes in baby pink and teal)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Unfortunately this is the only image I can show of the dress because I couldn't zip it up at all, I had gone with the size that the website gave me and it was at least a good 2 sizes too small on me (I picked the 16 Foxy). Had this been available in larger sizes I would have considered exchanging but 16 seems to be the largest the brand is going at the moment, I would love it if they could maybe go a little bigger! The dress itself I was highly impressed with, the fabric, while it felt a little rough to me was great, and I did love the fact that they have lined the top of the dress (although I do wish they had also lined the bottom) The fact the lining was black I liked on the peplum too, as it gave a little flash of another colour the dress. I can't comment on the bust room but it did seem like it could accommodate a fairly large bust, just not one of my size, and I'm currently around a solid 32HH although I do change fairly often at the moment, I feel the 16 Fab wouldn't have worked either which is a shame. I would recommend this though as I think it is well made and I have seen it on others and it does look great on.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The second item I picked to get the buy one get one free offer was one of their skater styles that I had been eyeing up for a little while now which is the <a href="http://madeinpreston.com/jersey-skater-dress-with-lace" target="_blank">Black Jersey Skater Dress With Lace</a>, seen here. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Whilst not being the biggest fan of the razorback style I do generally cover my arms so it wouldn't have been an issue.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This once again I grabbed in the 16 Foxy and this time with it being a a different kind of dress and I anticipated that there would be a little more stretch to this one than the peplum. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The fabric was nice and heavy, but the appliqué lace parts are a little disappointing for me, one reason it doesn't go around to the back, it just covers the front which is a shame, I also felt that they weren't as secure as I would have liked them to be. But the main reason this had to go back was the length, for me being 5ft 3 (so pretty short!) this was more tunic length than a dress, even the slightest lean forward would have given someone behind me a view of my butt! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Although the fit was actually spot on the waist wasn't baggy which can happen to me sometimes, the boob area was great, I do think the Fab might have been a little better it might not have stretched so much. As you can see from the second photo I did add one of my trusty belts to add a pop of colour to the look.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So, as the title says unfortunately the two styles I picked to try were ultimately not for me, but I do feel that brand has the starlings of something that could be great for ladies who can't get the fit they want from the highstreet in terms of chest space. I'm also not completely writing the brand for m, I do still like the looks of some of the items on the site and different shapes may work better on me. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">(The first two photos are taken from the <a href="http://madeinpreston.com/" target="_blank">Made In Preston</a> website, the second two are my own)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">*Both dresses are available from the website, the <a href="http://madeinpreston.com/jersey-skater-dress-with-lace" target="_blank">Black Skater with Lace</a> is currently £32 as there is £10 off at the moment, and the <a href="http://madeinpreston.com/peplum-dress-945" target="_blank">Red Peplum</a> is Half Price at £22.50!

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have decided to try and do a few more video blogs because my first wasn't as bad as I thought, so to kick start my blog back up I decided to make another video, and this time the piece I am reviewing comes from a brand I have had many issues with in the past. And that brand is <a href="http://www.panache-lingerie.com/en/" target="_blank">Panache Lingerie</a>, and the bra in question the wildly popular <a href="http://www.simplybe.co.uk/shop/panache-jasmine-balcony-bra/xv665/product/details/show.action?pdBoUid=9277#colour:Ivory/Floral,size:" target="_blank">Jasmine</a>, I purchased my Jasmine with my trusty personal account at <a href="http://www.simplybe.co.uk/" target="_blank">Simply Be</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">(I just did a little happy dance at the fact I've been able to attach the video! I seems to not like me at times!) </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The devil is in the details of this bra from me, the intricate and realistic flowers really sold me, I love the contrast of them on the ivory background. Also the stretch lace at the top, I'm glad they went for a bold colour and didn't stick with continuing the ivory colour, the deep purple works really well and it's in keeping with the colours in the flowers. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">On this I will say is having worn it a little more since making this video is the straps while fully adjustable they do take some moving, I've found I've needed to tighten them, the band is still pretty damn firm, I'm no where near moved down hooks yet so it doesn't stretch out as much as some of my other bra's. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">*This bra is still available at <a href="http://www.simplybe.co.uk/shop/panache-jasmine-balcony-bra/xv665/product/details/show.action?pdBoUid=9819#colour:Ivory/Floral,size:" target="_blank">Simply Be</a> where it is currently on sale! £20 but there don't seem to be loads of sizes left so I'd check it out quickly if I were you!* </span>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">One of my first posts last year was my first try of the <a href="https://www.axparis.com/" target="_blank">AX Paris</a> brand, I however had only tried the regular line which as beautiful as it is, unfortunately for me it isn't quite big enough. I have however tried a couple of pieces from their AX Paris Curve line, which I have found in stores and online with <a href="http://www.simplybe.co.uk/" target="_blank">Simply Be</a>, however until recently I hadn't tried anything that I was compelled to buy/keep. And it has turned out to be a great buy considering I have worn it once for my work experience placement, and I plan on wearing it again this week with slightly accessories. The dress in question is the <a href="http://www.simplybe.co.uk/shop/ax-paris-waffle-textured-skater-dress/sl124/product/details/show.action?pdBoUid=9511#colour:Black/White,size:" target="_blank">AX Paris Waffle Textured Skater Dress</a>. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Having tried this in the Doncaster store a while back, I liked it but wasn't completely sure if I like it enough to get it, but having been put on a work placement I wanted more options to wear, that weren't suits or overly smart clothes as the dress code is smart casual. I tried the 14 when trying in store but when ordering a couple of weeks ago I thought the 16 would be the better option, just to be a little bit comfier and I was right. It feels slightly big at the waist but only just and it's nothing one of my trusty belts can't fix. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now, even though I am only 5 ft 2 (just under according to my mother) I find myself wishing there was just a little bit more length to the skirt, I'm used to dresses and skirts ending below my knees and this falls just above them, but it doesn't look bad and it works for me. The main area of ill fitting is around the arm pit area, but I do get that problem, more often than not a dart in the fabric could bring it in and have it fit slightly better, but this fabric is very stretchy. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As you can see from the photo above you can see the ill fitting area closer. I wore my trusted (but slightly ill fitting) <a href="http://www.freyalingerie.com/lingerie/decohoney/ss14/moulded_plunge_bra.aspx?colour=topaz" target="_blank">Freya Lingerie</a> Deco Honey (mine is the previous green colour) I did try with a non moulded bra but I felt the shape at the top worked better with a smoother line underneath. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now this last photo is how I styled the dress to wear out, unfortunately for me I'm not a fan of showing my arms so some form of cardigan or shrug will always be necessary, a belt as mentioned earlier, I went for red to add a pop of colour to the look. And I had on a pair of slightly patterned tights and my trusty black <a href="http://www.kurtgeiger.com/aurora-2-red-synthetic-35-kg-kurt-geiger-shoe.html" target="_blank">Kurt Geiger Aurora 2</a> shoes (seen here in a dark red) I now own three pairs of these, red black and nude and I find they are very rare to find as the style is discontinued, it took me months to hunt the black pair down on <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/" target="_blank">ebay</a>, but I do keep looking!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Overall I do feel that the dress was a great purchase for me, I can see myself wearing it quite a lot, and it fit's in with a lot of items I already have in my wardrobe. I also see it as a great dress for someone working in an office environment, as it's comfy and does cover you up well, and the spot pattern is cute. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I will also mention that I got this dress when there was a half price sale online with Simply Be, so I did pay a bargain price of £17.50 for this (it made the dress even more perfect for me!) But I can safely say I probably would have paid full price as well with it being so versatile. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana;">[A quick note I missed before posting this is, the one downside I feel this dress has is the fact that the label does say that it is handwash only and I do normally tend to not buy things that say that. I did fall a little in love with this though and wore it out before reading the washing label! But I even if I had read it before I wouldn't have sent it back just because of that when it looks so nice one!]</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I recently received the</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.curvykate.com/" target="_blank">Curvy Kate</a></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.curvykate.com/proddetail.php?prod=eden-rose-print-curvy-kate-bra-ss14&cat=107" target="_blank">Eden Rose</a></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> from </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.simplybe.co.uk/" target="_blank">Simply Be</a></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">, in the 34H. I have attempted to do my review of the bra a little differently by doing a video which can be seen on just below.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I will say sorry for how I sound and the video, it's my first try at 'vlogging' and I'm not fond of my voice when recorded, and I wasn't overly sure what to say so I just went with the flow haha. But I'm going to write a little and expand on certain aspects of the bra.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now this is a cute bra, the bright bold colours do scream spring/summer but as I stated in the video there's a little too much pink for my liking, but I do love the hints of green in the centre on the bow and the stems of the flowers. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I also love the attention to detail, they carry on the embroidered scalloped detail onto the band near the hooks. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">And the band is rigid, it seems as though they have double lined it unlike some who have the one lining I find it stretches out too quickly, this I could see lasting longer. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In terms of fit I might end up trying the 32HH to see what it's like as after I had done the video I was able to easily hook the bra on the tightest one which the bra wouldn't last long at all. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now when I first saw this bra it was unfortunately out of my size range but in the last season the Charlotte size range was expanded up to a K cup, which was great news for anyone like me who previously liked the look of the bra but weren't able to try it. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My biggest decision was picking which colour to go for, while the peach is quite nice my option I knew it would be the red or the dusty rose both of which I love, red is pretty much my favourite colour, but I chose the dusty rose because it's different and can go under paler clothes a little easier than the red. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So the ever so lovely <a href="http://www.largecuplingerie.com/" target="_blank">LargeCup Lingerie</a> sent me the dusty rose in a 32J, as we had discussed that from other reviews the cups ran a bit smaller and most people who had reviewed the bra before me had mentioned, we thought it would be better to start bigger and go down if needed. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now at first I thought the band was a little too lose for me, as I prefer to have what some would say a band that could be too tight to me they are pretty comfortable, so LargeCup sent out a 30JJ for me to compare. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Which came in the lovely new hot pink shade and strangely enough as I'm not a fan of pink I did love the colour. Comparing the two made it pretty easy to say that the 32 was the right way to go, and there was a little gaping at the sides cup wise, and the band dug in a little too much for me as you can see here </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">(I have plenty of back fat as it is, this just makes more) It also rolled up and that made it dig in even more than it was. So back the 30 went and the 32J stayed and joined my collection, which worked fine in the long run as my band measurement is around 32/32.5 and it is still just fine on the loosest hook, I have been able to get used to bra's not being very very tight, and I now opt for a slightly loser (in my eyes) band but a band that I would probably be fitted in. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now I love parts of the bra, the thickness of the band is great in my eyes it manages to cover and hold in a little smidgin of my back flab. And I also love the thickness of the straps I know a few people haven't been but they don't dig in this way and they are so very comfortable. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A couple of issues for me personally are the the sides, it comes up very high for me and it can at times be a little uncomfortable, but I will say there seems to be a little bit of padding meaning it doesn't quite hurt and it isn't always a problem. And this isn't the bras fault, it's my breast shape not working properly with that of the bra, due to my close set breasts and the height of the centre gore there is an issue of quad boob. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I recently got the pants sent through making the set, now unfortunately at the minute I probably would want the bra in a 32JJ as I'm quad boobing in every aspect (but only after wearing it for a full day, putting it on to wear if I'm running a quickish errand is fine) But onto the pants, now I normally would have gone for the large but I read a review from the lovely Anna who writes <a href="http://brasandbodyimage.com/2013/09/07/feeling-peachy-in-parfaits-charlotte/" target="_blank">Bras and Body Image</a>, she mentioned that the large briefs didn't quite reach her waist and were a little snug on her hips, so I asked for them in the XL to see if they could actually reach my waist as not many can, I've tried a few than end up being no where near and it ruins the look a little. As you can the they aren't digging in at the top or the legs, they have reached my waist which is pretty high, and love the look of the set with these over the smaller regular briefs. My only niggle is because they are a satiny fabric, depending on what I wear with them it feels off and ends up being a little slippery.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I can't wait to see what other pieces the brand extend the size range of, because this is a lovely set to won and it does feel great on.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There are so many beautiful sets I'd love to own, or be gifted on valentines (if I had a valentine that is) so as to follow a trend of wish lists heres my 'must haves' for valentines.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'm starting with a babydoll, a couple have been released recently aimed at the larger busted market which is a revelation for anyone squeezing into something too small from <a href="http://www.annsummers.com/p/bow-boudoir-ivory/black-babydoll/01stblas1049030" target="_blank">Ann Summers</a> (who's babydolls aren't bra sized) . I've picked the <a href="http://www.figleaves.com/uk/product/CUR-SG2107/Curvy%20Kate-Ritzy-Babydoll/?product_id=CUR-SG2107" target="_blank">Ritzy</a> from <a href="http://www.curvykate.com/index.php" target="_blank">Curvy Kate</a>.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I think this is stunning, although I haven't tried it myself unfortunately I don't have the best luck with the brand (hopefully that will be sorted sooner rather than later) I love the pinstripe on the cups and down the front, and the colourway of black and almond I find sophisticated yet stunningly sexy. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I've picked this because like the babydolls they are a bit harder to find in D+ and while this one only goes up to G that's still pretty good. I love that you could have this under workwear and then once at home it could be the surprise gift for you and your other half.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This I love for so many reasons, the bra itself has lovely wide straps (some people dislike them but I'm a huge fan!) 4 hooks at the back and although it comes up very high under the arms its slightly padded which makes it comfortable. The high waisted pants I'm yet to try but I love that big pants can look as stunning as these. As for the colour well red is a favourite of mine and I just couldn't leave it off my list! </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #f1c232;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A few months back now I received a parcel from a lovely worker at <a href="http://perezhilton.com/perezitos/2014-01-19-3d-printed-babies-business-company-north-west/?from=blogroll_perezhilton#sthash.0HRfw0qi.dpbs" target="_blank">Curvy Kate</a>, after not having much luck with my twitter freebie friday prize which you can read about <a href="http://thechangingroomdiaries.blogspot.co.uk/2013/11/the-prize-that-failed.html" target="_blank">here</a>. After a discussion with the ever so lovely Himare about which bras might work better for my shape I decided to try the <a href="http://www.curvykate.com/proddetail.php?prod=smoothie-blush-curvy-kate-bra-ss13&cat=86" target="_blank">smoothie</a> again, having tried a 30J briefly and it being completely the wrong size, we decided that being around a 34GG/32H that I would try the 34GG. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When it arrived I noticed it was missing the bow in the centre but that wasn't a problem at all, I knew I was going to attempt to alter the bra, but I was sent a bow which I'll add at some point. Now as per I find with Curvy Kate it was a little east vs west on me but not as much as I have had in the past, and comparing to other bras I own the centre gore does seem to be a little wider in the middle which is what seems to be the problem on me.</span><br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The fit was reasonably ok, the band a little lose so I possibly could have got the 32H but this is still very wearable, and I'm filling the cup just fine, a bit of empty space at the bottom but theres no overspill at the top, and the straps whilst fairly wide apart on my shoulders they don't fall down. It gave me the smooth silhouette I expected, although there is a slight problem with the very top of the cup, it curls a little I haven't found a way to stop that happening, so under tighter tops it does show.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I knew when deciding on this bra that I was going to try and make a slight alteration to the middle of the bra and pull the gore together a little to see how it would look, so a couple of weeks a go I found a needle and some thread and looked up some tutorials and gave it a go.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So, while the photos don't seem to show much difference when I wear the bra it feels more central and my breasts feel less pushed out, all I did was pin the gore in a little and (haphazardly) sew it together. To me the fit is so different, I have worn it quite a bit and while I am now getting a slight bit of quad boob (I'm getting bigger! soon to be smaller!) It's perfect under tops and dresses when I need/want to show a little flesh ;). </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I do feel it isn't quite up there with the <a href="http://www.freyalingerie.com/lingerie/essentials/deco/underwired_moulded_plunge_bra.aspx?colour=nude" target="_blank">Freya Deco</a>, it s so so close though I feel the shape for me personally is better with the Deco, but I will continue to wear my smoothie and I will more than likely (when I get a job) grab another. I do love the subtle animal print one what is considered a plain bra, I have high hopes for this coming out in other colours maybe a bright red or a mint green.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Side note I did get the 'high waisted pants' and I will admit I was pretty disappointed they aren't anywhere near high waisted, they sit in a rather strange place on me hence why they haven't really be worn. :(</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A few weeks back now in a parcel from the ever so lovely Laura at <a href="http://www.largecuplingerie.com/" target="_blank">LargeCup lingerie</a> and it contained a couple of surprises, one of which was the lovely <a href="http://tuttirouge.bigcartel.com/product/olivia" target="_blank">Olivia</a> from <a href="http://tuttirouge.bigcartel.com/" target="_blank">Tutti Rouge</a> in a 32HH.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now Olivia is is so different, whilst it may be floral it's not obvious and I love that! The geometric floralness (not a word but it is now!!) is so different to anything I've ever seen on a bra before, it's such a stand out print that is in a league of it's own, it's such a shame it didn't fit. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now although I love the print, I will admit though that the lace that is in the middle of the cup I'm not overly fond of I feel it's out of place, the top and the bottom work, I get that breaking print up can be good but in this case I don't think it works (that's just my opinion though). And as you would expect there is the usual Tutti touches, the heart on either strap and embroidered branding on the clasp.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Onto the fit, I'm normally fine with the 32HH from Tutti but this was far tighter than any I have tried, I compared it to a 30 band in the parfait charlotte and it was a good inch and a half shorter! So either Olivia runs very tight or this was a one off, I would have said this is more like a 23/30HH Which isn't the right size at all for me, the cups were also a tad too small, probably could be rectified with trying a bigger band which I may do so in the nearish future. I also admit this is the second 'success' in the same style from tutti, if you think back to when <a href="http://thechangingroomdiaries.blogspot.co.uk/2013/07/a-fruity-tutti-start-part-one-first.html" target="_blank">I</a> first looked at the brand and tried the <a href="http://tuttirouge.bigcartel.com/product/liliana" target="_blank">Liliana</a> this also worked due to the shape of the bra suiting the way my breasts are, but I'm not going to give up on the different styles!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It was so pretty (as I'm finding with every Tutti set I come across), it had the usual details on the Tutti bras that we all love, the heart on the straps and the embroidered Tutti Rouge on the back clasp, and it was very ruffley. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The ruffles are a little over the top for everyday wear personally, especially on the skirted suspender, whilst pretty, I'm not quite sure how practical it would be. The colour on the other hand I found really cute and different, whilst it wasn't what I would consider a pastel shade it wasn't too bright it was in between and I thought that was nice to see in lingerie, I always love (although they can be slightly impractical) coloured underwear.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now onto the fit, of the balconette styles from the brand this is almost perfect on me and I was pretty miffed that it didn't fit. The band was spot on, firm but not overbearingly tight which I do like in a bra, it was the cups, the cups are that bit too small, if only they made it up to a J I think I would have been onto a keeper! The bra also wasn't east vs west on me at all which made me really smile, I sometimes have a problem when the gore is a little too wide, it can push me apart a little too much, but that wasn't a problem at all with Frankie. The last photo I have tried to show the same thing that happens with all Tutti bras on me, because I'm not full on the bottom I don't always fill the bottom of the cups on bras, this isn't as much has others. This mixed with the fact I'm fuller on top makes the 32HH too small in the cup, which is upsetting because it's so adorable I so wish they will consider extending because I want to own this :(</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The skirted suspender I got in a large, because when I've tried medium bottoms from the brand before they have been a little tight, however I think this ran a little on the big side, even though it doesn't seem to look it on the photos! It is a thong, (my lovely starry pants seem well hidden in this photo, they weren't in the rest!) I do find that because I needed the larger size when you lift the skirted part, it looks (and possibly could be) uncomfortable at the front as the front part of the thong is pretty small. If it were slightly bigger I think it would be better. (it might not be like that on everyone)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Overall I do think it is very cute and I do love the idea of skirt.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So after having a fear of the dreaded tube pencil skirts for quite sometime, I made the decision to try them out this year, after seeing them in so many shops and on so many lovely ladies I thought to myself there must be one I can wear and not feel huge in. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />And the weirdest place that I managed to find the right skirt was <a href="http://www.primark.com/whats-new" target="_blank">Primark</a>! I rarely manage to find things in there because I find the sizing to be very inconsistent. But these are by far my best purchases from there! </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I got my first two, the green and the purple from the ever so lovely Kelly who runs <a href="http://kel-kitty.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">The Curvy Kitten</a>, my local store only had 12's and I tried that first and whilst it fit, it was very snug, so Kelly managed to get me some 14's and they were perfect. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They hug my body just right, and although they do enhance my belly a little I honestly think they look great and I feel great in them, they show my rear (which I have grown to love as it has grown!) They are exactly what I wanted and at £5 a skirt, I couldn't ask for more, the Jersey fabric is stretchy enough but also keeps it's shape, and so far they have all washed just fine.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I think they are so great that I hunted down some more and I still am, I currently have 7 the five pictured above and one in grey and a royal blue, they do have a fairly bold orange colour but I felt it didn't really work on me so it didn't join my collection. They are very practical for me to wear out shopping with tops like the above photos, and I also wear them for work with a longer tunic type top. The length is great as well, they sit a couple of inches below my knees, depending on how high I pull them up. They also work well with my heels, flats or my big chunky winter boots, so I think it's safe to say I love them, they have been the perfect addition to my wardrobe and I will admit I have been wearing them a lot more than I thought I would, it's much easier and looks much nicer than just throwing on my jeans. </span></div>

<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So continuing the spotty theme, I think it's high time I reviewed my last <a href="http://www.bravissimo.com/" target="_blank">Bravissimo</a> purchase which was the <a href="http://www.bravissimo.com/products/lingerie/sensational-sets/dotty-spot-bra/red-ivory/au08ri/" target="_blank">Dotty Spot</a>. I did try the previous two colour ways when they were out, the aqua and red and well as the black and cafe both seen <a href="http://brasandbodyimage.com/2012/03/18/going-dotty-for-bravissimos-dotty-spot/" target="_blank">here</a> being reviewed by the lovely Anna who runs <a href="http://brasandbodyimage.com/" target="_blank">Bras and Body Image</a>. Whilst they were lovely colour ways at the time of them being out my shape didn't work with the bra and I couldn't seem to get the right fit in them. But when I saw the red and white colour way I knew I had to try it.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I brought this in September as I was down to one bra, (that didn't really fit) and when I visited my sister in Scotland, while we waited in Endinbrough I thought it would be best if I went and found a new bra. Now I had previously been fitted into the Dotty Spot in the Leeds store about 2 weeks before the trip so when I went in I asked for the same size and it was a perfect fit again. I hadn't managed to shrink back down again so my new size was deemed a 32H.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This is one of the best fitting bras I have had for some time, although there is a slight wrinkle in the fabric, the cup fits perfectly and the wires don't dig in at the sides as well as not sitting too high and stabbing me in the armpit. I will admit it took a little getting used to because I had constantly been in more plunge shape bras than anything, the higher centre gore felt very strange and whilst it felt like it was digging in after a while I didn't notice it and put it down to not wearing bras with higher gores for some time. The band was also great, I do prefer really tight bands so naturally I did ask to try the 30HH on just incase but I couldn't actually get it done up, so the 32 is fine and I'm only just tightening the back by moving to the middle hooks, which is pretty rare having taken me 3 months instead of 3 or 4 weeks I find with other bras.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I feel I have to mention this though, I don't quite know why but the bra doesn't quite give the natural rounded shape I know at least I normally want, it is as you can see quite pointy and to some women that might be off putting, I think people should try it and see before completely saying no though. I found myself loving it though, it creates a different shape that works really well under clothes and I think it's quite vingtagey and reminiscent of bullet bras. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The colour and print I find just up my ally, I adore red so it was a given I'd like this, although I think I would prefer black to white spots, it looks very cute as it is and the bows attached to the gore and the base of the straps add to the cuteness.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If I were to pick one bad point about the bra, I would have to say I find the straps a bit slippy, they slip off my shoulders and the fabric with it being shiny I find it slips when I have tightened it, and by the end of the day it's gone back to where it was. I am looking for a way to stop this happening because it is a niggle that bothers me now, as the straps don't hold all the weight of my boobs but they do hold a fair amount and if the straps loosen the boobs droop a little.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For many women <a href="http://www.freyalingerie.com/" target="_blank">Freya Lingerie's</a> infamous <a href="http://www.freyalingerie.com/lingerie/essentials/deco/underwired_moulded_plunge_bra.aspx?colour=nude" target="_blank">deco</a> bra is a staple to own, I know of many women who will squeeze into one which may be slightly too small just because the shape is gives is exactly what women want. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The roundness, the lift and the cleavage on show is nothing less than epic, the fit was perfect, and they do try to reinvent the bra, having seen the <a href="http://fullerfigurefullerbust.com/2011/05/09/underneath-my-clothes/" target="_blank">Frida</a> (seen on the lovely Georgina), <a href="http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10701_10001_150010451785_-1?CMP=KNC-cid=35528127110-aid=&sc_mt=b&sc_kw=_intitle:Freya&tmcampid=6&tmad=c&label=generic&gclid=CI_GqbyXgbsCFQHHtAod9l4AgA" target="_blank">Carly</a>, <a href="http://fullerfigurefullerbust.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/crystal.png" target="_blank">Crystal</a> (again on Georgina) and more recently the (also again modelled by Georgina) <a href="http://fullerfigurefullerbust.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/taylor.png" target="_blank">Taylor</a>. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Having seen the aptly named <a href="http://www.freyalingerie.com/lingerie/aw13/deco-spotlight/moulded_plunge_bra.aspx?colour=claret" target="_blank">Spotlight</a> in a brochure summer last year I knew I had to have it and I hated that I had to wait until November to get my paws on it. But when <a href="http://www.figleaves.com/uk/" target="_blank">Figleaves</a> sent me an email with a discount code (subscribe to their newsletter and every so often they send codes giving you discounts on items and sometimes free delivery) I snapped at the chance to get this lovely bra as I received 15% off and free next day delivery, so in a few clicks the 34GG was winging it's way to me, and luckily I didn't have long to wait.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now when I get parcels I get rather excited (I'm like a child with presents, only I've brought myself them) and when the box with this arrived it was no exception, I hurriedly opened the box and there it was. the colour, an intense shade of burgundy red (claret going by the official description), and I loved that the spots aren't just on the cups, they continue around the bra even on the black edges and straps, I think when a detail like that is done throughout the bra it feels more finished and refined. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have to admit, I was a little apprehensive on the fit, the Crystal I mentioned earlier for some reason had a bit of an iffy fit I panicked that this would be the same, and it is, a little. </span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The bra fits, there's no denying it the centre gore fits sits flat, my breasts are fully encased in the cups, and the band while slightly loser than I like it actually feels fine (I'm one of those people that seems to like the band really really tight) I will admit I wont be wearing this as an everyday bra, just because I find a lot of movement, even in a really well fitting plunge bra, I find after a couple of hours my breasts have fallen into the middle more than they need to have. This is going to be my go to bra for when I wear lower cut tops and dresses as it will give me the right shape and look I will desire. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Now onto the crystal effect, I found the crystal to be slightly wider than the regular deco, being that the centre gore seemed spreads my boobs further apart than normal, which unlike the crystal this doesn't do it as much, unfortunately it does still happen, but it isn't enough to put me off this bra at all. That and I do LOVE the pattern, I'm all for spots and dots and red and black, pretty much my dream bra combination really so it had to work! </span></div>
