Every once in a while, we like to get a bit, well, saucy over here at Love My Dress…..! 🙂 We have already written about some fairly hot-under-the-collar brands, like Fred & Ginger and Dollybirds and did you see the Julia Boggio Claridges photoshoot with those amazing Lindsay Fleming dresses *mops brow*…??
Today, we'd like to share a little vintage-undie love with you, courtesy of What Katie Did.
Born from a passion for vintage glamour, What
