More of Katie’s bargains and what she thinks of her latest lingerie acquisitions! Recently we posted about some great lingerie sales from Made by Niki , Sexy Panties & Naughty Knickers and the Elizabeth Cotton Kaftan from Neiman Marcus and my recent TJ Maxx outings and again I must say I’m quite pleased with the service, shipping speed and most of all the products themselves.  I’m seriously thinking of picking up another S***K dressing gown (Turquoise) and a couple more Fresh Foundation pieces in satin while they are still on sale . Elizabeth Cotton Kaftan I had been interested in trying Elizabeth Cotton from the moment I read Danae’s glowing review and they did not disappoint.   So when I saw the line on sale at Neiman Marcus I knew that was my chance. The Elizabeth Cotton site states she was looking for something she could wear in front of her future in-laws and not feel stodgy but  I think the material is a bit too thin to go commando.  With that said the 240 thread count, finely woven cotton is crisp allowing my caftan to retain it’s smart lines, it’s fade resistant and was perfect for warm summer evenings.  Neiman Marcus still has the pj’s available but sizes are limited and the sale price is now $86 instead of $65. Sexy Panties and Naughty Knickers The Knickers Girls are big fans of Sexy Panties and Naughty Knickers and though we are sad they had to change their logo, which is embroidered on each piece of lingerie, the 80% off  or more sale was thrilling!  I had purchased a couple of things from S***K before so I knew the quality; also I just love the companies overall mission as well as the little silver Live, Love, Laugh charm that come with each piece, so the chance of being disappointed was slim.  I decided to go for the oh so 40’s glam of the hot pink, silk, quilted robe for £30 (was £155).  The color was eye popping and the style tailored yet cozy, when I wear it I want bon bons and champagne, powder puffs and satin slippers.  Currently this dressing gown is their monthly special and is still only £30, sadly it’s of the old stock, therefore cannot be shipped to North America. Made by Niki Fresh Foundations The first time I saw Made by Niki Fresh Foundations range it was on the cover of  Intimate Apparel Business magazine and it took my breath away, I was not alone!  This drop dead gorgeous satin shapewear (available in black and champagne) took the market by storm, I saw it everywhere from small online retailers like Pampered Passions to high end boutiques like Journelle to the big players like Figleaves. Like my fellow bargain shoppers (the sharkettes) I want to know immediately when/if it ever went on sale.  It did and I was able to pick up the sheer suspender skirt and matching knickers in Lilac.  The sheer is for light to moderate shaping, so don’t expect miracles, but the design is fun and the knickers are a wonderful soft mesh that feel great on and the price £39 for both pieces (rrp. £168) was divine.
