12 Days of Holiday Lingerie: Day 12

Give the unforgettable gift of sumptuous Italian silk from Christine Lingerie this Christmas. 

Courtesy of Christine, I've recently had the pleasure of adding this beautiful Gatsby Lounge Top (pictured below) to my armoire of particularly special pieces. It is absolutely luxurious to touch. Made of a light, silk charmeuse, it will pair perfectly with denim and stiletto booties. While tailored black culottes and strappy sandals will play up the drama of the design's contrasting noir details.

Any piece from the stunning Gatsby Collection would make a memorable present. Christine Lingerie's iconic kimono may best show the beautiful digitally printed peacock motif.

Honestly, the best part is that the garments are not 'dry clean only' as one would expect. I was more than pleasantly surprised to learn that my gorgeous piece could be gently handwashed and hung to dry at home!

The Gatsby Collection and other fine silk collections are available online at Christine Lingerie, at Christine Lingerie's Vancouver showroom and in-store at Romantique Lingerie in West Vancouver.

12 Days of Holiday Lingerie: Day 4

We popped into Christine Lingerie's studio and showroom today. We had a little tour and met the team. Lovely people! Truly a Vancouver-based business, Christine Lingerie has been designing and making their luxury silk collections here for over forty years. #ShopLocal began here folks! Meet Christine and read more about her company here.

After our tour and a look at the gorgeous Gatsby Collection (review coming soon!), we couldn't wait to share the first of Christine's picks for the perfect Christmas gift with you. The Sweet Dreams chemise is a combination of lace and silk that makes this set truly special. If you haven't experienced Christine's silk, you really have to. It has to be one of the finest things we have ever touched.
