Starkers Blackberry silk victorian corset 20″ review

Happy Monday y’all! If you follow me on Instagram, you probably already know the pieces I am wearing on today’s article. I have been wanting to pair these pieces for months but somehow couldn’t get myself to photograph them. Anyway… I finally did it. The real star of today’s review is a corset I bought…

Katherine Hamilton Abbie Vintage Rose review (30G/UK10)

Hey beautiful people! Today’s review is one the most exciting posts I have written this year. I mean, I am really excited, I don’t know about you. Today we’re reviewing the ever so gorgeous Katherine Hamilton Abbie set. After reviewing the “faulty” Sophia set I bought from the brand outlet, I was really happy to…

Channelling my inner fairy: Ellesmere Rosa set (custom bra & Small)

You might know it or not, but I fell in love with Ellesmere lingerie a year and a half ago. I discovered the brand through Instagram and eventually got to meet the designer as we live in the same city. Seeing the person behind a business is always very interesting to me. Ellesmere lingerie is…

Silk robe made in Canada: Birds of Paradise clothing

Although I don’t show it on this blog, I definitely have an obsession with loungewear lately. I have almost 10 robes in my wardrobes and yet I keep adding some more to my wishlist. Note that I bought all of them during the past year or so. However, something I have learnt from my past…

Discovering Katherine Hamilton: Sophia (30GG & UK12)

It’s been a longtime since I have actually written a lingerie review. This month is being crazy busy. I am about to graduate from my masters, and this is taking most of my time and energy. Yet, I am annoyed because I am not active enough on my blog and social media platforms. I just…

5 Plus-size friendly indie brands that love and empower women

A few days ago, one of my Instagram followers asked me for advices about independent designers that make plus size full-bust bralettes. It made me realize that despite reviewing many indie brands, my blog posts were definitely not informative in that regards. So, I decided to set a non-exhaustive list of designers I trust for…

Lingerie made in France: Bombom B’So Wild set review (34C/FR40)

Last weekend, it was both Bastille day and France world cup victory. I wish I was in France to feel the energy, and at the same time, I felt a bit disconnected. These past few years didn’t show the best face of my country and I guess I have a hard time forgetting its behavior…

The little black bikini : Raq apparel bikini 10G/32G review

I don’t know if it’s just me, but I feel like a bunch of Australian full bust swimwear brands have been released lately. This would make sense considering the climate in this part of the world, but for me it mostly means that there is still a need for more swimwear options for the full…

Trendlistr x Effie Butterworth : some more love for your old silk

You might have noticed that the idea of ethically-made and eco-friendly lingerie is important for me. It’s not something that is affordable to everybody but I feel like we should all do a conscient effort to think about who made our clothes and in what conditions. [The true cost documentary on Netflix is very informative].…

Discovering Uye Surana : the Layla set (30G & Small)

Hey guys! You might remember my 2018 lingerie wishlist ? Well, I am slowly but steadily getting there. In fact, during my last trip to New-York I got to meet (again) the lovely designer behind Uye Surana, and couldn’t resist getting something from her shop. So today I’ll do my best to introduce this independent brand…

Getting ready for Christmas. 🎄✨️❤️ I am Getting ready for Christmas. 🎄✨️❤️ I am craving authenticity more than fantasy lately, so I thought I would picture myself as I am most days... Half dressed, multitasking, always leaving some paints, paper, or pens behind me. I am a little messy. Happy Holidays everyone! ✨️ May you be surrounded by love and patience. We all need more of that. 🌹

Rummaging in our souls, we often dig up something Rummaging in our souls, we often dig up something that ought to have lain there unnoticed.- Leo Tolstoy, Anna Karenina.

I do believe facing the truths we buried deep inside is beneficial in the long run, if we can handle the uncovering process. 😅 If I was president of Wencilliatopia, I would offer free therapy to everyone starting at 13 years old. Hopefully this would make everybody healthier and we would save lots in other areas...

I really want to learn Russian so I can read Tolstoy and Dostoevsky in their original language. I think I am missing out, even if I already get all the feels reading them in English. 

What would you learn if you had all the time in the world?

I recently noticed that I have a sort of noise add I recently noticed that I have a sort of noise add*ction. Somehow, there is always something playing in the background.

A YouTube video, a podcast, music, a friend’s voice messages.

I am not sure that I even truly enjoy it (except the voice notes, ahah), but it is always present.

Often, I feel so overstimulated, yet it is also hard to turn off the noise for an extended amount of time.

So, sometimes, when everything is too much, I sit down and paint. I paint until I am tired of painting, and then I take a nap. It is funny how being an adult often equates to treating one’s self like their own toddler.

Going with my own flow. 🌱 I am currently rewiri Going with my own flow. 🌱
I am currently rewiring my brain to live in the moment instead of nurturing the constant fear of failure that has been hindering my every move for as long as I can remember. As an overthinker, it is hard to reduce the thousands of questions fighting in my head to the most important ones. The best things I have done for myself this year all implied accepting to be bad at something in order to have a chance to become good at them some day. ♥️
