Valentines Gift Guide - Boux Avenue

It's that time of year again, shops filled with all things red and lacy and in a lot of cases incredibly tacky, and thats just some of the cards! 

Other then roses, lingerie is one of the most bought items during the two weeks running up to V-day, and some of the nicest collections have been from Boux Avenue. I could choose what I liked best so the boy has picked for me, 5 things that will look amazing for Valentines Day, maybe this might even drop him a hint!



1) Victoriana Satin Plunge Bra and Briefs - I love the pink of these, its so gorgeous and is a nice change from the traditional red. Bra - £26 (30B-38DD) Brief - £14 (8-18)

2) Flirty Frills Balconette Bra and Brief - a cute set which creates an amazing clevage, looks good under most tops or dresses and is simple enough to wear every day! Bra - £22 (30a-40F) Brief/ Thong - £10 (6-18)


3) Ebony Bow Plunge Bra Set - A really cute set that is not really practical for everyday but is so cute, love the pale pink with the black lace overlay - Bra - £28 (32A-34DD)Thong - £12 (8-18) Suspender Belt - £16 (8-18)

4) Alexus Silk Balconette Bra Set - Ok, so I couldn't write a gift guide without a bit of red, and this was my favourite. I adore balconette bras, they give such a good shape, and the touch of black lace is lovely. Bra - £30 (30C-38FF) Brief - £16 (10-16)

5) Cutesy Flock Spot Bra Set - Out of all of these, this one is my overall favourite. I love the black dot detail, has a nice kitsch feeling. I would happily wear this as an everyday, plunge balconettes give us bustier girls cleavage without 4 boobs whilst boosting those with smaller boobs! Bra - £26 (30B-38E) Brief - £12 (8-18)

These are just a few of the gorgeous bras from Boux Avenue, plus I've had a sneak peek at their SS'13 collection and my list is now incredibly long! Head on over there to pick out a set, or start dropping hints now! 

Which sets do you like? Any others that you like? xx

Next Valentines Day: The Perfect Gift Selector



Evening lovelies, hope your well, finally the weekend, only one more week until half term! Currently getting ready to go out with work but thought I would throw together a post quickly.

I hate the way every year Valentines Day seems to sneak up on me. I plan to be organised and then its the day before, I have no present and no outfit! 




I then proceed to panic and sink into a pink coated fog that means I pick up the first thing I can find, ending up with something that resembles what I would buy for my Nan's birthday, rushing about in a very unsexy way!


Thankfully Next has to come the rescue with a great little gift/outfit selector to help chose something for you.


I had a go, answering a couple of questions and ended up being shown this gorgeous skirt:



There are other options but I fell in love with this skirt but as I'm on a spending ban this will have to wait until next month, unless a certain someone is reading (hint hint ;D ) Plus you get the opportunity to win one of 50 bottles of Just Pink Eau de Toilette for Women! 


You can have a go on this, by heading over the the Next Facebook page, or by having a go on my blog! You will need a Facebook account to enter the competition but its great fun! You never know, you could win the perfume, even your perfect outfit!


I'd love to find out what your selector gave you, leave it in a comment below!


Thanks for reading xx
