Happy New Year!
First of all, happy new year everybody! I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas and had huge new year celebrations! I spent it at my boyfriends which is why I haven't been posting much over the Christmas period - I apologise! I've just been super busy catching up with different family members up and down the country but I've got my posting mojo back and I shall be creating a lot more beauty/fashion/homeware posts throughout 2014! So again, happy new year and I hope you all have a safe and wonderful 2014!
So today my post is about the Boux Avenue sale. So the day after Boxing Day (Friday) me and my sister went into Manchester to take a look at the sales and if I'm being honest... I wasn't impressed, at all. We went into Ark and we didn't see anything we liked, we went to shops including Topshop, Urban Outfitters, Selfridges and H&M, but we just weren't satisfied at all. The only shops that had great sales were House of Fraser, Mango and Boux Avenue.
They had some of the most gorgeous sets in Boux, I fell in love with some of them but a few were too expensive. Then I found this floral patterened, feminine set and I loved it!
I fell in love with the style, the colour(s) and the lace. I thought it was so feminine and classy but really sexy too. I was scared incase it didn't suit my body or if the colour of the set didn't suit my skin tone because I'm quite naturally pale. So I took the risk and bought it because it was just too pretty not to buy. The bra cost £15 and the high waisted Lyla Rose satin briefs cost £8 (They were £16) so for the set together they cost £23, which I thought was a reasonable price for Boux!
My favourite feature of this set is the Lyla Rose satin high waisted briefs. I think they're so cute and provocative at the same time which is a hard combination to find in women's underwear, you either get one or the other. I love the laced pattern around the edges, it really makes them look dainty and delicate.
Soooo, I tried them on, just to see how they'd look...
... And I absolutely loved them! I thought they were really suited to my skin colour so if you're quite pale like me and you're looking for underwear which is erotic but classy, I really would recommend the Lyla Rose set from Boux Avenue, you can choose from high waisted briefs or a thong but I personally thought briefs were cuter - everyone's opinions are different though! They're also really comfy too! It's such a bargain for £23.

(I apologise for the *slightly* nude photo or if any viewers found it distasteful but I posted it to show how well the colours matched my skin tone and how the briefs looked on me as obviously they look completely different when off. So yea, sorry about that!)
Be quick by the way, sales don't last forever!
I hope you all enjoyed the read and have a lovely day! Stay content.
Love, Chloé.
