Thinking about Lingerie

I don't often ponder on the psychology of underwear. Looking at it, writing about it, tweeting about it, buying it, selecting it, obsessing over it-yes, but as soon as I focus on anything deeper than that in fashion, I am normally distracted by another sparkly thing.

 However,the last few days have seen me in a pensive mood. Now, given that nobody (usually) knows what underwear I have on at any given time, why does it matter to me if the underwear matches or not. Sometimes, it is easy, practical and just a whole lot less faffing, to grab one item from each drawer and hey presto, underwear selection. But, at other times, it just has to match. Why?

And why do different colours seem to be more important on different days? Perhaps you have an answer you'd care to share here. perhaps there are no answers.

Anyway, welcome to my first-ever blog post. I am mad about lingerie, it really, really matters to me and I thought I'd set up this blog for a number of reasons.

I have tips galore, reccomendations, lingerie you will never have heard of and some to die for. From stockings to babydolls, corsets to panties, I will be giving you the lowdown and comparing style and substance.
I'd like to create a community-though realise, at this point, with one blogpost and 2 twitter followers to my name (@jillysfrillies) I have a long way to go.

This is how I see my approach. Fun, flirtatious and seductive and because my fave items of lingerie-EVER- are babydoll nighties, here is a picture that hopefully will come to sum up my blog-sexy and quality.


cute and sexy




I'd like to educate guys too about what it really is women like and make the pursuit of sensual femininity affordable and accessible.

Lofty aims aren't they. Let me know how I get on won't you?
