Welcome back La Senza

Golly gosh, I've missed you. 

Whilst walking through my town's shopping centre yesterday afternoon, I realised that my local La Senza has reopened. A few months ago, La Senza was one of the latest stores to be hit by the recession, but after being sold to Victoria Secrets, La Senza are aiming to reopen as many as 60 of their stores.  Having desperately being in need of a new fitted bra, I popped in to get measured yesterday and I found the staff delightful and the store looking as glamorous as french boutique. I can't say the same for every store, but the Huddersfield branch is homely - whilst you search for your new sexy lingerie, there's draws to pull out, pink dressing rooms and an array of bra's and french knickers in every colour possible.  

This emerald green balconette bra was the first to grab my attention. I was immediately drawn to the black lace details and the luxurious feel of the fabric. Gone are the cheap feeling cotton La Senza bras, they are replaced with what you can see as Victoria Secrets inspired lingerie. 

My second purchase was an everyday perfect black bra. As soon as I came out of the store, I rushed to the nearby toilets and decided to wear it. It gave me a slight lift, that makes my cleavage have volume, but not look too intrusive. The woman who measured me made sure it's a perfect fit and I really can't fault her. This bra is so much more comfier than my older La Senza gear and I like how, from the black lace trim to the little bow, they have made a plain black bra look sexy. 

My local La Senza had an introductory offer of two bra's for £30. Having paid up to £70 for Agent Provocateur underwear before and other sites hitting the £50 mark, I'm so glad to have La Senza bringing back affordable glamourous lingerie. 

What do you think about La Senza coming back?
