Here at Boudiche towers we seem to be having a flux of Birthdays. We normally turn to Stella McCartney Lingerie for the perfect gift since we all like to think we are of course what she thinks of when designing her knickers. When our buyer discovered the new Happy Birthday knickers there was smiley faces all round at Boudiche HQ . A novelty, designer birthday gift to keep forever and ever for the rather charming price of £35 – yes please!

But wait! There is more…the latest Stella McCartney Box Set to be released is the Vintage Days of the Week Knickers Set. Featuring a contrasting colour scheme of grey with white embroidery, and electric pink with purple embroidery, these are are boldly eye-catching, and comfortable to wear. The set also comes encased in a mini-drawer set with Stella McCartney branding, and each day of the week is written on each individual drawer. There’s even a little bonus drawer for “bits and bobs”, which is perfect for stashing away any little extras cluttering up your dresser. Any lingerie lover would be very excited to add this set to their lingerie collection, and it would look adorable on display in the boudoir!

So there’s some food (or rather knickers) for thought!

Name: Kirsten

Role: Braologist (Glasgow Boutique)

Bra size: 30DD/32D (Depending on the brand)

Style: When it comes to lingerie Kirsten’s head rules her heart. She is not one for frivolous or dainty styles – this lady is a bonafied designer lingerie addict and only the best will do.  Lingerie has played a large role in Kirsten’s life for some time having studied lingerie design at the London College of Fashion. It’s now no surprise that Kirsten has a magical eye which can spot an ill fitting bra from a mile off and of course guess the correct size – without fail.  We are sure Britain’s Got Talent will be calling someday soon!

Favourite Items: Corsets, corsets, corsets need I say anymore?  Kirsten is all about creating the perfect hourglass silhouette and she has just ordered an Eternal Spirits corset for her birthday in her favourite turquoise colour (I will post photographs when it arrives).  Otherwise, a lover of investment purchasing she has quite the collection of  Australian brand Pleasure State.

Most exciting thing about working at Boudiche? Making women feel and look great, a true believer in the wonders of a good fitting bra. Kirsten is very familiar with happy (albeit slightly shocked) faces from women who thought they were B’s or C’s but in actual fact are DD+’s.

Name: Steffi

Role: Web & Marketing Assistant

Bra Size: 32D

Style: Laid back, simplistic yet edgy lingerie that could (and will) be worn outside! I am a sucker for a beautiful photograph and New York brand The Lake & Stars ticks all my boxes. Ohh and  Scottish gals Bebaroque how could I forget how they revolutionised tights and now bodysuits!

Favourite Items: In my photograph I am wearing one of The Lake & Stars romper suits -as seen on Naomi from 90210 and Carrie from Sex and the City (my hairspirations!) New Season it has to be the Sedgemoor teddy and Bebaroque Gretal tights which I plan on layering up for the super cold Scottish winter.

Most exciting thing about working with Boudiche?: I really love the social aspect of my job; I get to chat with likeminded designer lingerie enthusiasts on a daily basis. Hopefully this will continue to grow as I am starting a lingerie surgery on the Boudiche facebook along with my fellow Boudiche braoligists where we can chat bras, pants and tights all day long.
