Slip into Peter Alexander

Oh this is super cute I just want to rush out and get this one.

You can find the Split detail slinky nightie from Peter Alexander in their stores and online. Made from 92% Polyester 8% Elastane. This very pretty nightie features lace trim panels at bust, subtle slits at the hem and adjustable straps.

Pass me my martini

Sometimes when you at home you need a bit of Hollywood glamour. Well the team at What Katie did have created a couple of pieces that fit that right down to the hem of your favorite nightie.

Their slip is based on an authentic pattern, and can be worn as both a fabulous nightgown or as a period-perfect underslip. We can all understand why you need a nightgown, but there are still some who don't understand the need for a slip. Not only does a slip produce a super-smooth dress line and keep you warm during cooler nights, but it also helps avoid the static cling that nylon stockings can be famous for.

So what elese.....well they also have these rather saucy knickers are the perfect thing to wear underneath your Hollywood gown! Made from a single layer of sheer powermesh around the back and sides, they feature a flattering curved tummy panel made from matching midnight black satin, finished with a cream lace trim.

Doll House Bettie Spring Treat

One of my new favorite international lingerie houses Doll House Bettie has just released for spring (our autumn) a number of stunning vintage slips perfect for the light weight fabrics and pastel colors of the season.

My favorite from this collection has to be the stunning sage green nylon deemed " Van Raalte Satin Suavette". Now normally I’m not a green person but this piece is just to stunning not to love especially as it is gathered under the bust and has chiffon trim at the V-neckline and hem. As well as large lace appliqués adorn the bodice front and center back while a matching asymmetrical insert trims the skirt front.

Now you may be wondering why in this modern time of jeans and hoodies I’m talking about slips, personally I think these are a staple in any woman’s lingerie drawer. They can be worn under any dress so in the blustery Melbourne weather the fear of showing everyone in the street your frillies is reduced. So I think its time to embrace the slip and enjoy the breezy weather.
