As a new mum to be, I’m completely fazed about how much information there is to take in about being pregnant. What to eat, what not to eat, how you should feel each week and which creams prevent stretch marks. The list of what we should know goes on!

Saumarez Lingerie offers a gorgeous range of beautiful, elegant sexy pieces and accessories believing women deserve to wear luxurious lingerie with a clear conscience – and so we should!
The items are made by designers who care about people and the environment so fair-trade, organic growing and caring for workers are at the heart of Saumarez. Run by Victoria Groulef she combines her experience in International Development with a lifelong passion for lingerie launching Saumarez as an online boutique where everything from underwear, nightwear and accessories such as garters, pasties and eye masks can be found.
Tastefully sophisticated I absolutely adore the pieces on the boutique. There are styles and colours to appeal to an array of women who appreciate stunning lingerie. A great touch to the online boutique is Mia – a vintage inspired burlesque starlet and lingerie expert who offers opinions and styling tips for all the items so you’ll never be stuck on ideas – in and out of the bedroom!
I was very excited when my Bedrock Ruched Shorts and Bedrock Garter arrived – both designed by Enamore! These leopard print beauties are made of soft bamboo and adorned with cute flamingo pink satin bows which add a touch of femininity! I love the fact that I can adjust the front ruching of the shorts depending on how much skin I want to show and the look I want to achieve. They are so soft against my skin too and look great on, fitting me perfectly whilst hugging and showing off my curves. The garter which is part of the Bedrock range is a gorgeous accessory to complete the lingerie set adding a flirty sexiness to the look whilst sitting comfortably on my thigh.
Bedrock Ruched Shorts, £38.00
Bedrock Garter, £15.00
I’ll definitely be visiting Saumarez Lingerie in the future for more fabulous lingerie and goodies!
Check out the new ghd IV Mini Styler designed for shorter hair and ideal for creating tight curls, La Roux flicks, sexy waves or straight lengths.
What we really love about these ghd straightners is its portability; it’s cute, versatile and works an absolute treat. We’re having loads of fun with it in the office and competing to see who can create the craziest hair.
It’s £99, so not cheap BUT with ghd’s you know they are going to last you so well worth the cash in our humble opinions. I guess we can’t be too wrong as the product won best slim/mini irons in the prestigious Hair Magazine Awards 2009.

I’ve been a fan of Gossard lingerie for a while now. They produce such gorgeous sets at reasonable prices making every woman who wears them feel sexy and confident as the brand itself is famous for enhancing women’s shapes.
The latest set I got my fashionista hands on is The French Fancy Non Padded Plunge Bra with briefs – a beautiful set in midnight made from sheer lace with delicate gold trimming. It is designed to support you in the most comfortable of ways and I must say this is very true and it fits me perfectly.

I’ve always wanted to give shapewear a try. The promise of lifting and slimming your figure is always something women dream of! But having heard mixed reviews in the past I was a little sceptical. Curiosity got the better of me though and I chose two pieces of shapewear from Lingerie Please – both made by Cette. The Revolution Magic Knickers Support and the Evolution Midriff Tummy Thigh and Rear Shaper!
I was quite excited when they arrived but seeing the women on the front of the packaging wearing the items did make me think I would no way look like that! When it came round to opening them up and actually seeing the shapewear I did wonder how I was going to get them on – they were so tiny and, as I had opted for small, thought a medium would have been the better choice. Oh how wrong I was! Once I had tried them on they fitted perfectly and were more comfortable than I thought.
