(Yes, more lingerie. But it’s so inexpensive, I just had to…)
Sand Dollar is a new lingerie label from Lavender Lamington, and the first release comes to us by way of ‘Fruits Basket’, with a total of eight design choices, each one costing a very reasonable $125L. You can also purchase a fatpack for $800L: at $100L per set, you can’t really argue that it’s good value for your Lindens.
Each hand drawn set is based on a fruit, featuring a themed print and colouration to match. ‘Blackberries’ is the black set, ‘Cherry’ is red, ‘Grapes’ is purple – and so on. The sets feature bra and panties on two layers, plus a pair of yummy thigh highs and prim bow sets to decorate.
The look here is delicate and feminine, the triangle print bra hiding most of the breasts but leaving a little uncovered on all sides. The central gore and halter neck are trimmed with white lace, the straps accented by coloured prim bows above either cup; there is another bow with long ribbon ties that hangs down to the back, which is a nice touch.
The thong is also printed with its themed fruit, bows to the front on either side. It has the same frilly trim. My favourite part of the set though is these thigh highs – as you can see they do actually come up to standard and don’t end over the knee or half way up the leg, which I see in a disappointing number of supposed ‘thigh highs’ on sale. They’re demi-opaque with spots over the leg, finished to the top with coloured ribbon, lace and more little bows to the backs.
Looks good enough to eat.
The seams are ever so slightly mismatched, the outer left on the thigh high tops and the right hand side on the panties are the two obvious ones: these were not a real issue for me, and you certainly won’t notice from a distance. You will find demos at the store, so if you’re picky you can try yourself before you buy. Pay Sand Dollar a visit, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
