Fall Lingerie - Rich and Deep Colors

The beginning of September is approaching (can you believe it?) and that means one thing is for sure – it’s time to embrace Fall and start transitioning over your wardrobe.

For me, I love accessorizing with bold statement pieces and fun prints (remember the cheetah print obsession?) But my go to pieces are always dark and rich in color to compliment my mood. Fall and Winter really brings out my love for dark colors and I can’t wait to whip out my black, brown and maroon pieces this Fall!

And while jackets, pants and boots seem to be only a few of the items on my mind, I can’t help swooning over darker shades of lingerie, robes, and boudoir gowns.

1 // Beautiful Bottoms Black Pearl Tunic with Stone Embellishment – This is probably my favorite piece in the group. It’s wildly sexy while still giving you coverage in all the right places.

2 // Rosa Silk & Lace Knicker by Sonata Lingerie – I love lace even more in the Fall, if that’s possible. I think the deep hues compliment the delicate details so perfectly.

3 // Ludique Catarina Bodysuit – I think this is a great staple to have for your lingerie as outerwear collection. Throw this on with a great pair of skinny jeans and a blazer, it’s the perfect Fall wardrobe necessity.

4 // La Lilouche Delia Silk Maxi Gown – This rich burgundy maxi gown is on my wish list. The stunning details are so very Grecian and the cut will only enhance your figure in all the right places.

5 // Beautiful Bottoms Jade Silk Playsuit – I adore this shade for Fall. It’s deep stone shade of green is a great choice for this playsuit.

6 // Beauty Lace Bra by Oh La La Cheri Paris – a gorgeous balconnet bra made of black lace? Yes, please and thank you.

See what I mean? Going bold with dark colors this Fall is totally possible. What are your go to favorite Autumn colors?

Xoxo,

Light Years - Australian New Lingerie Label

We came across this cool new line of lingerie from Australia and wanted to share it with you. Light Years is a new boutique lingerie label designed to fill the gap between the traditional lingerie offerings of lacy, shiny sexed-up styles and utilitarian basics emblazoned with kiddie prints and giant logos. The Light Years girl craves fuss-free lingerie that is a natural extension of her own confidently cool, understated style. The styles remind us a bit of Zinke Intimates, another cool lingerie brand with a similar approach.

With pieces from the range doubling as outerwear, the Light Years offerings can work their way into daywear ensembles, or remain hidden for someone special.

Each garment is made from natural fibres with added stretch for great fit and comfort, making them ideal for everyday wear as well as dressing to impress.

Light Years is designed and made in Melbourne, Australia. To find out more about this lingerie label visit the official website here.

Wildside Lingerie

Did you guys hear? Fall is coming – can I get a collective HOORAY! out there anyone? I love Fall weather, and even though we have to wait for it a few weeks later than everyone else down here in Florida, that doesn’t stop me from adding some of my favorite Fall patterns to my wardrobe. My number one go to pattern this year? Cheetah print. That’s right – it’s wild, chic and undeniably flirty. Here’s some of my favorite ways to incorporate it in to my wardrobe:

And who says cheetah print can only go as far as your outerwear? I love having some frisky lingerie pieces to wear under my outfits. Bella Bella Boutique has two gorgeous collections I’m just itching to get my hands on.

>> Beautiful Bottoms Quartz Silk Short Robe, Playsuit, Tunic

>> Dirty Pretty Things Vivian Pale Pink Bodysuit, Padded Bra and Thong

How do you feel about animal prints for Fall? I can’t get enough!

Xoxo,

Nocturne Sleepwear: Sleep in the Finest Cotton from Brazil

Cotton doesn't conjure up the glamour that silk or satin does, but lots of great designers are creating pieces that elevate cotton beyond the every day t-shirt level. Nocturne uses the best cotton batiste from Brazil to create gorgeous and comfortable sleepwear. Their designs incorporate French, US and Brazilian influences while focusing on style and simplicity. I've always been a little scared of white lingerie, but each Nocturne piece is machine washable for stress free wear.

If you're looking to collect some great basics, this Nocturne Leandra Short Robe is perfect. Everyone needs a great basic robe and this one is classic. It's machine washable and hypoallergenic, which means that you don't need to worry about it every time you put it on. White cotton is also incredibly feminine, so you'll feel beautiful every time you slip it on.

The Nocturne Leaves Chemise is my favorite of the collection. The pleats are stunning on their own, but even nicer when combined with the handmade lace inset. It's hard to find gorgeous and comfortable sleepwear, but this definitely fits into both categories.

If you like more traditional and romantic lingerie, the Nocturne Gloria Nightgown is perfect. The lace and button details are feminine and frilly and the high waist design is really flattering on a variety of figures. This nightgown is also a little longer, which can be nice if you like more coverage around your legs.

If you like more sex appeal, the Nocturne Jupira Chemise is the best choice. The swiss dot pattern is classic and cute and the tucked details around the bust are sexy without being vulgar.
