In this week's Ready to Wear vs. Lingerie post we feature the gorgeous Elcee Ruffled Camisole by La Lilouche. Epitomizing the glamour and flirtatious of the 1920's, this vintage inspired silk camisole is crafted from delicate ivory silk chiffon and it's exquisitely detailed by a handmade of 8 yards of silk crepe ruffled trim to bring femininity.

Spoil Mom with a Gift from Bella Bella Boutique




1} La Lilouche Adelle Silk Chemise
2} With Love Lingerie Beatrice Babydoll
3} NakedPrincess Royal Treatment Gift
4} Plum Pretty Sugar Cami Dress
5} LOLA HAZE Bomb Robe
6} Paradis Lace Robe by Sonata Lingerie
7} MC Lounge Silk Racer Back Camisole and Stretch Silk Yoga Shorts
8} LOU Silk Camisole and French Knickers Set
9} Nevaeh Silk & Lace Chemise
10} Nougat London Nourishing Cream

Mother's Day is almost here and BellaBella Boutique has lots of gift options for your favorite mother or wife! Today I've picked 10 items that will please almost anyone, from bath products to gorgeous luxury lingerie sets.

Sometimes presentation is the thing, as with this Nougat London Nourishing Cream. Everyone loves a long soak in a bubble bath, but the glass decanter that this Fig and Pink Cedar foam bath comes in will make your gift extra special. This foam bath also contains antioxidants and vitamins to keep your skin looking great and feeling soft.

Speaking of presentation, this NakedPrincess Royal Treatment Gift set makes quite an impression as well. It contains a lip scrub, body soufflé and body & boudoir spray in the signature vanilla scent from Naked Princess. This is a great choice if you want to help someone you love relax and indulge their senses.

Since spring is here (well, we're at least hoping it is!) this is the perfect time to discover Plum Pretty Sugar. This knee length Cami Dress in their Beckoning Creatures print makes the perfect gift for someone who loves sweet prints and flattering sleepwear. This piece can be either a nightgown or a bathing suit cover up, which makes it great for the warm weather we all know is coming.

If your mom or wife is a fan of classic glamour, this With Love Lingerie Beatrice Babydoll is perfect! It's an easy shape to wear that looks great on a wide range of body types - this one size fits all piece will work for sizes 2 to 12! The handmade flowers make this a luxurious basic for either lounging or wearing out over leggings and a tank top. 

This LOLA HAZE Bomb Robe is cute and colorful, but the shoulder cutouts really transform it into something special. This robe is a colorful classic, which makes it the perfect gift for a fashion forward woman! Sizing on robes is much more forgiving, which means this is an easy gift to give with confidence.

Speaking of robes, it would be impossible to leave the Paradis Lace Robe by Sonata Lingerie off this list. The color is perfectly on trend, flattering on lots of skin tones and the lace is just incredible. This is a great gift when you want to make your mother or wife feel truly appreciated this spring!

I'm a huge fan of luxurious basics, so this MC Lounge Silk Racer Back Camisole and Stretch Silk Yoga Shorts set makes me really happy. The rich purple color is a wonderful way to welcome the summer and each piece is comfortable and easy to wear. You can split them up and wear them out or lounge around home in the set. These pieces also wash and wear very well, which make them perfect for the stylish woman with lots going on in her life.

The La Lilouche Adelle Silk Chemise coral colored perfection. The open back and rhinestone details make this a truly special gift for the woman you love. This piece is made to order, so make sure to allow enough time for your order to arrive for Mother's Day!

Chemises are often an easy piece to gift moms because of the classic shape, cut, and easy fit. You can go wrong with a black chemise, so I think this Nevaeh Silk & Lace Chemise will make her smile. It has adjustable straps which can be used criss-cross style or classic. The stretch silk material embraces the body in all the right places creating an elegant look with a luxurious feel mom will love!

I went through a period of time a few months ago where I threw out all my ratty t-shirts and replaced them with lovely basic camisole and french knicker sets like this one from Marika Vera. This LOU Silk Camisole and French Knickers Set is luxurious, flattering and has some serious yet subtle sex appeal. Sets like this are timeless and can be worn lots of different ways, which makes them great gifts!

La Lilouche 'Rosy Days' New Collection - SS13


The newest La Lilouche collection 'Rosy Days' is here this week which I'm extra excited about. La Lilouche collections are always frilly, fun, colorful and gorgeously feminine. This season also contains a lot of variety as well as an extensive bridal collection, which means there really is something for everyone!

The ROSIE collection consists of incredibly flattering pieces in black silks and satins. Each piece is finished with a hand dyed silk rose to add lots of romance. This collection includes a balcony bra, knicker,ouvert high brief,  a maxi gown, and a boudoir cape! If you're someone who is addicted to black lingerie, this is a great way to add a flirty flavor to it for spring. While it's hard to pick a favorite from this group, the boudoir cape would be a dramatic addition to anyone's lingerie drawer.


The JAYMIE collection features a vintage inspired mint green color. The mint green JAYMIE Babydoll is a great basic piece in a fun color and the Peek-A-Boo Knicker shows a little skin without exposing everything. These two pieces would also make a great sleepwear set once summer hits in full force.


The LANA collection is a decadent ode to shockingly bright coral colors! The LANA Ruffle Camisole is a nod to the styles of the 1920's with it's dramatic eight yards of silk chiffon ruffles and fabulous drape. This would be a great piece for the bedroom or for wearing out over a plain tank top to add some color to your outfit. The matching Ruffled SilkSatin Tie Panties are adorable and sexy. I love the oversized bows on each side.



The DAISY collection in electric emerald green is my favorite of the bunch. I've already picked up the bodysuit for myself, in fact! The pieces in this collection are a combination of luxurious green mesh, matching green silk satin and handmade ribbon flowers with gemstones at the center. If you're looking for an outerwear piece, you can't do better this season than the DAISY Bodysuit. For a more traditional look, combine the DAISYKnicker with the triangle shaped Bralet and then add the DAISY Garter.


The BARBARA collection includes a gorgeous ballerina inspired set with tutus. If you'd like to channel your inner ballerina, pair the BARBARA bra with the Ruffled Tie Belt and the Brazilian Knicker.


The ADELLE collection is another take on coral, but this time with a more elegant and traditional feel. The ADELLE Slip is silky and traditional, but the rhinestones on the straps make it a piece to buy and show off. The Scrunchie Bow Knicker and the Grecian Bra are a great combination of silky, sheer and sparkling. Finally, as one can never have enough bows, the ADELLE pasties are the perfect way to finish off your boudoir outfit.
       

What's your favorite style of La Lilouche new collection?
