Caroline Trentini by Richard Bush

I'm in love with the styling on this shoot.

Styled by Charles Varenne for Numéro #110.

If only it was really feasible to walk around in these kind of ensembles on a day-to-day basis...

Lingerie Love

I've always had a bit of a thing for buying nice undies. I'm not sure why. I guess it just makes you feel feminine and sexy, which is never a bad thing.

We've been doing a broadcasting project at uni about how the recession has affected underwear sales. Apparently more people are investing in nights in rather than nights out, so are buying more lingerie (and Dominoes pizza apparently?).

Agent Provocateur and Elle McPherson's line have seen increased sales since the recession began.

Anyhows, I thought I'd have a look around for some pretty knickers and such and share some of my favourite finds with you all.

Enjoy :)
