“I think lingerie plays a big part in how you carry yourself.” – Nichole Richie.
Ever looked at most stylish women, those ones who never seem to ever have a bad wardrobe/hair/makeup day and wondered how they always get it right? Notice anything interesting? I have – they all have some pieces of wardrobe essentials in common. Why? My guess: these essentials make the difference between a regular wardrobe and a stylish wardrobe. So, I have begun a series called ‘Wardrobe Essentials’ to highlight my findings of the different fashion/style pieces that will take your style journey, no matter what stage it is at, to a 💯. This is the first instalment of my ‘Wardrobe Essentials’ series.
Never underestimate the influence of wardrobe essentials. I am big on dressing to LOOK good. But I also know the importance of dressing to FEEL good. And those 2 things, combined with dressing to FEEL comfortable, make up part of my style principle. As conservative as I am with my fashion choices, I know that there are certain outfits that require the sexy touch of lacy lingerie like a black bra peeking out from underneath it. Black camisoles, under a semi-sheer top, like this one, are necessary where you need just a little bit of self-assurance! Especially if you’ve been ill all week long.
A couple of weekends ago, I was invited to LuLu Lingerie’s Sip ‘n’ Shop event at the brand’s store at The Palms Mall and it was as fabulous as I had expected with an array of lingerie on display, including the recently released collection by LuLu Lingerie.
Personally, these are my favourite types of bra. I absolutely avoid lingerie in any colours outside of black (obviously) and red, and would even rather choose a blue lingerie if given the A/B option. Other factors that determine my lingerie choice include the wiring and strap size. As always, comfort is a major factor, and luckily I can get comfort and looks all under the one with a supportive lacy lingerie, whether it’s a bra or bralette.
My biggest issue is that lingerie in my two favourite lingerie colours (black and red) are always too beautiful to leave at the stores. I always feel the need to rescue them and end up buying more even when it’s not yet time for my regular update. It’s an absolute disaster to my budget plans!
I have therefore permitted myself, although with budgetary caution, to try out some pieces from the LuLu Lingerie brand. Will let you know what I think about them. What are your favourite lingerie styles and brands?
XoXo,
