WHAT TO PACK FOR A ROMANTIC WEEKEND AWAY
It’s the beginning of the year, and the perfect time to relax and reset in preparation for busier times ahead. Perhaps it’s the start of a budding Valentine’s romance for you - or you've planned a last minute couple's weekend getaway together, time for just the two of you!! Either way, knowing exactly what to pack for a weekend away can place anyone in a pickle. Too many lingerie choices and it’s a waste of valuable overnight bag space. Too little, and we find ourselves wishing we’d brought those extra undies after all!
When it comes to Valentine's lingerie, the key is dressing to impress…yourself. You do you and you’ll feel your sexiest, sassiest self all weekend. A helping hand from the Boux crew never goes amiss though, so here are our top sexy underwear and lush loungewear picks for a weekend to remember.
ROMANTIC LINGERIE FOR A WEEKEND AWAY
As suitable for daytime dalliances as for nighttime naughtiness, it’s hello to some romantic realness to start. Luscious lilac helps bring unrivalled femininity to your packing via the Heidi plunge lingerie set and the Kollette longline lingerie set. Gorgeous lace galore and intricate floral work make both a little fancy and a whole lot of fabulous.
A couple of classic V-day shades next: The Aaliyah push up bra in strawberry red promises a boost like no other - that is, for both your cleavage and your confidence! A simple yet sassy everyday staple with contrast lining and plush padding, it’s a pick that’ll make your stay feel anything but basic.
We couldn’t leave you without a bold black option, either. Enter the Kyra flock plunge bra. Understated and wearable, with curved cups and bow detailing that definitely add a dose of romance, this bra is equally at home in your bougee boudoir as it is on a starry-eyed afternoon stroll.
Floaty and feminine is the ultimate romance vibe - and so is the Amelia satin midi robe in ivory. The romance-inspired Amelia range consistently puts the ‘a’ in amorous and this robe is no different. Premium silky satin material, fanciful fluted sleeves and stunning lace trim is all perfect both pre and post-dinner á deux.
SEXY NIGHTWEAR FOR A SEXY WEEKEND
A rare weekend en amoureux calls for items that make you feel sexy, sensual and super seductive. And this feels different for everyone - variety is the spice of life, after all! Regardless, your Boux crew has gathered a few pleasing picks that are likely to tick at least a couple of your bedtime boxes.
Throw a beautiful bodysuit in your bag to start with. Both the Francine body and the Bouxtique Vivian body take things back to black, but with a twist - a tantalising, thong-styled, almost-transparent twist, that is!
And if you’re keen to layer up and tease a little longer, slip into the Amelia satin chemise for luxe feels all weekend. A sexy side slit adds some edge, whilst on-trend colourways (6 shades, no less) keep your options open and this quintessential gem bang up to date. Slide on the Amelia satin short robe for matchy magic and enjoy cheeky mini vibes and luxurious satin and lace design.
Prefer to get straight to the point? A matching set is your fast-track ticket and we adore none more than the Freddie balconette lingerie set. A balconette shape draws attention to your bust in the chicest way possible, and winter berry hues fit any Valentine’s theme to perfection. Add the fabulous Freddie suspender for more stunning gold detailing, and finish your look with our Nude plain top hold ups. Their neutral shade keeps eyes on your main ‘fit and they’ll work with all your other sets too; a romantic getaway mainstay, we’d say.
THE WEEKEND AWAY PACKING ESSENTIAL: LOUNGEWEAR
Because if downtime isn’t part of your weekend away, are you even vacay-ing? We think not, so we just had to add our loungewear lovelies to your list:
It’s lounging but glam in the Heart satin pyjama set. Feel gorgeously glamorous in this pretty pale blue set, made from silky satin fabric for the most comfortable of snuggles and sleeps.
For a slicker take on loungewear lingerie, slip on the Lana ribbed twist cami top. Winter cosiness is assured with this gem, crafted with super soft fabric in a beautiful charcoal grey. Show off your most (booty)ful assets and grab the curve-hugging Lana ribbed shorts to match. Be warned, though - a strut round your suite in these, and you’ll prove pretty irresistible!
And for our motif-loving mademoiselles, make it the Ribbed seamless cherry embroidered bralette. Seamless material, scalloped edging and an all-over cherry motif make it a true naughty-but-nice piece that your (very lucky) Valentine will delight in for years to come.
