Whether they are strapless, one shoulder, low cut or puff sleeved, summer dresses seem to be everywhere I turn. Lovely and floaty or short and chic, I just have to have them…ALL of them!

However, there was something very important that I failed to remember when I rushed out to buy my first two new dresses of the summer (FYI a gorgeous backless dress and a floral dress with cut away shoulders). However lovely my dresses seemed at the time of purchase, trying them on again at home I realised that they would never look quite right without the correct underwear. In my opinion, there is nothing worse than visible bra straps. And the clear straps you can get often end up looking a lot like cellotape! So I began searching on the internet for something amazing, and that’s what I found. Introducing The Wonderbra Multi Plunge Bra from online store Lingerieplease.co.uk.

Believe it or not, this bra comes with 3 sets of straps that can be moved to over 100 positions, which means no visible bra straps with ANY style dress or top. Yippee! So, for £25.99, you are effectively getting around 100 different bras!

Available in Black, Skin and White, you have no excuse for looking anything less than drop dead gorgeous in your summer gear this year!

Summer is fast approaching, and those cosy warm jackets and woolly scarves are the first to go, which means one thing; it’s time to start shaving our legs and preparing for the return of short skirts and strappy vests. I like the sun as much as the next person, but it can be a little daunting bearing flesh after so many months hiding it away. Here’s where SkinKiss Caffeine Tights step in. Available from Tightsplease, these revolutionary 15 denier sheer tights have the ability to slim the wearer’s bum, tum and thighs by up to 2 1/2cm, thus helping to create an irresistible pair of pins for the summer months ahead of us.

How do they work? The warmth of the body causes the caffeine infused tights to act on the skin and tighten and firm the tissue. They even reduce the appearance of cellulite.

Available in colours black and skin tone these can be worn either at work or on an evening out, so there’s no excuse. Go to www.tightsplease.co.uk for more information and to order your pack with free delivery today!

Stella Mc Cartney is expanding her empire; now venturing into lingerie she is finally able to inject her beautiful delicate signature style into a new line of underwear that is sure to be a sell out!

I must admit I am a big fan of Stella and am excited to see this new lingerie line. Net-a-porter has recently interviewed the hugely successful Brit designer to reveal the inspirations behind her latest lingerie collection; it is an interesting read and gives you a few previews of the latest collection! Expect to see luxury silk georgette bras in beautiful floral prints that reflect her much praised spring/summer 08 Ready to wear collection.

Being aware of the environment is also one of Stella’s main attributes so it doesn’t come as a surprise to hear that her new lingerie line will feature organic cotton sets in a range of pastel shades; eco friendly and fashionable, what more do you want!

Looking for understated elegance, head to Rigby & Peller. The expensive and luxurious brand has some fabulously sexy, lacy numbers.

Apart from the obvious occasion, Valentines Day coming up, buy some lingerie to make yourself feel good. This Rigby & Peller Felina Seduction Underwired Basque will have any man to his knees and will make you feel like a million dollars! The lace basque oozes sophistication and is finished with some glamorous diamante detailing. There is an option of matching thong or bikini brief, but in this day and age I’d go with the bikini brief – French knickers ooze sex appeal.

Get your Felina lingerie set at Rigby & Peller online. The basque is £96.95, and both the brief and thong are priced at £33.95.

With Valentines Day around the corner its time to start thinking of what you’re going to buy your man for the special day! Well the answers simple; treat yourself to a Patrick and Skinner lingerie set and you’re both winners!

Patrick and Skinner is a new lingerie label that is utterly scrumptious! A truly beautiful collection called ‘Mint Choc-Chip & Raspberry Chocolate-Ripple has just been launched from the label and I have to say its good enough to eat! Taking inspiration from Edwardian and Victorian times, Patrick and Skinner have produced a collection bursting with elegance and beauty. The use of sumptuous silks and lace in unusual colour palettes really set this collection apart from most!

You can find out more from the Patrick and Skinner website and their my-space page that has links to a number of stockists! Enjoy!

Get wild in the new Miss Selfridge lingerie collection! Miss Selfridge has taken influence from nature this season with their fun and sexy animal print underwear collection!

Vibrant zebra and leopard print underwear sets are spicing up the Miss Selfridge stores across the country! Both prints are mixed with either pink lace or ribbon trimmings for that extra girly effect.

I think these sets are really good fun and would make perfect Christmas gifts, however if you fancy treating yourself just be careful what you wear them with; a see through white blouse in the office would be a no no!

Bras cost £16 and the bottoms depending on which style you prefer are either £5 or £6, both can be purchased online from Miss Selfridge.

Boost your confidence this Christmas by investing in lingerie by Myla to wear for your partner or to make yourself feel great.

Either way Myla have some glamorous pieces that are guaranteed to send a man crazy and make you feel like a million dollars. Take Gina, Myla’s iconic range this season, available in an ultra seductive lingerie set. The Yves blue silk satin and black Leavers Lace collection oozes sex appeal and is so worth the price tag. The Tie Side Knicker costs £59 and the Soft Bra is £69 and both also come in plum and black too.

Or if you are more comfortable wearing a cuter but equally seductive babydoll, Lara, would be more suited to you. The silk chiffon babydoll with silk satin halter neck costs £119 and is available in pink. Complete the babydoll with either Tie Side Knickers costing £49 or Ruffle Knickers costing £39.

I am a huge fan of Victoria Secret lingerie and have recently signed up to the mailing list for their season catalogues. I spotted what I think is a cute, feminine and sexy green pretty lace padded bra lingerie set. I decided as I was visiting the States to wait until I got there but was disappointed to find out they don’t stock the same items as the catalogue in the shops. Since then I had forgotten about it until I was browsing ASOS and found it there!

Odille is a new lingerie brand producing some sexy little numbers and this pretty lace padded bra and boy short set is just what I want. Priced at £22 for the bra and £12 for the matching boy shorts, this lingerie is a must buy this season.
