Girl with a Pearl Thong

BRACLI & G BLACK  S
Bracli Lingerie
Spain

(Giveaway prized given by Brigade Mondaine)

If you are a like me, a lingerie addict who buys her own undergarments and works hard for her money, a giveaway is a dream. And sometimes dreams come true.

Brigade Mondaine, a Paris based lingerie curator who ships internationally, was having one. They have incredible deals in their sale section, and delivery is quick with no extra custom fees. I have been watching them for years for they hold such a wide range of luxurious lingerie brands. This is how i discovered Ruban Noir and Opaak amongst others. But more precisely this is how i became personally acquainted with Bracli Lingerie.

The giveaway contest was offering a lucky winner a beautiful pearl thong. I presumed a new sensory experience: a thong able to give clitoral stimulation as the pearl string attaches from the pubic bone to the tail bone. A high waist lace knickers with a satin bow in the back to attach (or detach) a naughty precious string.

Brigade Mondaine' representative contacted me via Instagram DM. A lingerie miracle had just happened, i was so very excited. 3 days later the precious package was delivered to my box.

Rapid, eco-friendly, luxurious and naughty. A personalized love note written in gold, a satin sachet containing the  item and a gift signature choker. It looked and felt expensive. I was in heaven. A lingerie gift.

Instead of wondering how this pearl thong worked, i tied it up and tried it on right away. omg! A label is needed: "Wear with caution". Stimulation can not be denied. Just the sight of it leaves no one unaffected.  White pearls soaked in flesh. Made for love. Self love or the kind that bask in kink and class.

But i still wondered about the name. I experienced firsthand the arousal and sexual excitement, but why the G mention?

So i searched and found that from the creators:

finding-your-g-spot

I was shocked and intrigued but thats material for another story

Lingerie has proven itself as such a learning tool. Teaching my preferences in  tactile sensation, my desire process and the pleasure of investing in myself, and also the intense intimacy that results by daring to nourish my passions.

Thank you Brigade Mondaine i hope i discover more epic lingerie with you.

Kayleigh Peddie, 
(Montréal Québec, Canada)

Lingerie is something i tease myself with. I go in shops, i lurk online, i read blogs and i search for designs ive envisioned on my own. I take my time, i wait to feel that burning sensation of desire. When i purchase it has usually been months (sometimes years) since i laid eyes on it.

It is the case with the petra garter tank from Kayleigh Peddie. 

I discovered Kayleigh Peddie's lingerie when i started recognizing lingerie companies that gave social media love and support to their fans/customers whether they had 30K or 300 followers. And when i understood the designer worked from my hometown i heard angels sing.

Handmade to order ethical fashion and edgily erotic i watched 3 collections unveil before i took the plunge. And finally ordered the white fishnet ensemble i had been dreaming about. But also some tie straps black mesh and a neon green tiger that she had just dropped... 

It took 6 business days from "your order has been accepted" to "your order has been shipped". 

No fancy box, just a black soft envelope, with inside my 4 items wrapped in black silk paper, their signature look on a sticker-stamp crowning it and 4 cards-postcards giving you visuals of what is to be revealed.

I've come a long way since my first review. I still touch the fibers and rejoice (when available) in the quality of the fabric. But now i also look in the craftsmanship, each hem, fold, the finish, the lining, the symmetry, the adjustability and with  Kayleigh Peddie that was just the préliminaires. 

The fit feels perfect. Im a 36a and the medium bralette and garter tank are just snug enough to feel the pleasure of wearing the beauties without leaving elastic branding so often occurring with mesh, microfibers, bamboo jersey and fishnet. 

My waist/hip ratio has unusual proportions. It very seldom fits both without adjustable straps on the bottom but this time everyone is happy. My waist is 27 inches, around the hip bones makes 33 and at the widest makes 39. The Small Anja and basic cut thong fit like gloves. Not just for time of a lingerie photoshoot but a whole day and night of sitting and moving around, dancing and having to look (and feel) our best. 

Im usually a black or nude lingerie girl. I have an imposing red and black tattoo and fear clashing with unorthodox patterns or colors. So i was the first to be surprised about the neon yellow green tiger print i ordered. 

First, the Anja thong. The cut is so flattering. My legs feel endless, my hip bones are free and the V shape is excellent curve enhancing architecture. The black mesh is very see through but the show stopper is the animal print. From the pelvic bone to the tail, the goods are covered with it: a funky wild untamed feline!! And thats just how it made me feel. Highligthed... Wild and free! Dangerous and fun. Sexy. With a secret smile... but oh! sooo very sexy.

So much so, it took me 24hours to order the missing pieces to complete my set. yeah i (was) am hooked. and that was only the thong.

The Dreamer bra fits like charm. its Sheer to a provocative degree. long bows falling from the shoulders romantically with a rose between the breast. I chose my rose mine black. it was green leaves. matches incredibly well with the untamed animal bellow... but i ordered her matching side-tie thong with black roses again so combinations will be wild romantic and limitless ;)

Kayleigh Peddie white fishnet is, in my collection, the softest and most comfortable one by far. Its in the composition of the fabric (90% nylon, 10% spandex). And the design and garter buckles themselves. The later are gold plated and very small. But sturdy enough to hold up cotton/wool stockings. The adjustability of the garment is also wide and strong i.e. it didn't loosened up after excessive wear or movement which is often the case with so many companies.

The basic high cut thong is just as perfect and is lined with a bamboo jersey soft as a cloud. And together they make this new entity, almost a wonderful body, which must be close to how the Petra body must feel. 

I can't wait for the Ava crop top, the Estelle garter belt and dreamer thong to get home. I have a feeling the match and mix possibilities will be endless.... but also with other companies like hopeless and the end...

This is the beginning of a beautiful lingerie adventure. Thank you Kayleigh Peddie for making this girl feel, not only dreamy comfortable, but sizzling in hotness and able to express sensuality with confidence and personality.

And that to me is very special and something money can't buy...

House of Bordelle

Gia Shelf Bra M
Harness Thong S
Amaya Adjustable Garters
Atelier Bordelle
(London, England)

The art of seduction at its most sumptuous. BordelleGirls are lingerie's new BondGirls. Beautiful, bold and dangerous. It was just a dream, like test-driving a Ferrari, and then it became a chapter in my lingerie storybook. 

It started with envy and lust. And then a gift card on my birthday. Then Kezia, Bordelle's special agent, helped me so kindly with sizing and other important details. So when my Bordelle crossed the pond and was delivered at work, it literally knocked me off my feet.

I took my time, like decanting a prized wine and every details was an enchantment.
The black thick luxury gift box was was wrapped by their signature bondage lingerie strap,  bows and 24K plated gold hardware. Inside the box was a black silk sachet containing my Lingerie. I laid everything before me scrutinizing every stitch, fold, O-ring, eye, hook, adjusting patiently my straps... 

The Caramel color was just a feast to the eye, melting perfectly on the skin with shimmer of the 24k gold . The mesh is so fine and elastic, the satin straps allow a huge range of fitting possibility. I just couldnt wait to try on my treasure. 

The Gia Shelf bra is a quarter cup bra with a satin elastic frame. At first the rigidity of the bra surprised me, very structural and almost corset-like. I thought it would make it restrictive and uncomfortable. Was i ever wrong. The soft lining places securely the brassiere as you wish on the chest, putting your breast on an exquisite pedestal. The O-rings are the thickest i've ever seen. Thick and heavy. Feels great on the skin. I usually fit a 34b or a 36a, and the Medium size is just plain heaven in comfort. The ribs straps can be adjusted as you desired, and so can the ones on the top of the breasts. Whichever ways you choose. I found to have never loved my bosom as i do wearing Gia. 

The Harness thong gives a sublime view from the back with 5 straps attached to O-ring crowning a strategically placed bow. It hugs your hip bones follows the pubic bones bellow the navel where its met with the harness attached to a smaller o-ring. The harness can be worn to the waist or let to fall on the hips' flesh. The thong straps are perfectly adjustable (again) either way...

The Ring of O is a specially designed ring which has been worn as a distinctive mark among BDSM practitioners, mainly in continental Europe — and especially the German-speaking countries — since the 1990s. Its use is relatively widespread within this subculture. Its name derives from the name of the central female character in the classic BDSM novel Story of O (written by Pauline Réage), who was a sex slave and wore an analogous ring.

those O-rings... Even bigger on the Amaya adjustable garters, in the center of 3 straps. I can wear them at the knee, on the thickest most muscular part of my thigh, and even by my inner thigh, where the leg begins, framing the body in a majestic fashion .

I took 3 weeks to write my review. Wanted to make sure my judgement was not clouded by my lascivious excitement. And lust is turning into love. I just long to wear my Bordelle. 

Such a selfish pleasure, make me feel like incredible because of the tactile quality of fabric and craftsmanship. Let's not kid ourselves, the price is also very high, but expectations are met and surpassed. Ethics on sustainability are also respected, everything about the brand is at it's finest.

House of Bordelle is empowering, a sure investment and most sinful decadence.
