ROMP Juke Rechargeable Vibrating Cock Ring

Bright and Tight (and vibrates just right)

I already own a few other cock rings, but this is my first vibrating one. It’s smaller than it looks in the pictures, but it’s cute, bright colored, and smooth. It also comes with a sheet of 16 little genital themed stickers and a little poster on the back side of the instructions. (Note: the instructions are not specific to this cock ring, so they are a general guide for ROMP rechargeable products). The vibrator’s charging hole is covered with self-healing silicone, so it’s waterproof and very easy to clean. (Not in instructions: flashing blue light while charging, solid light once fully charged). I like the way the yellow buttons look contrasting with the blue, but they’re hard plastic and absolutely terrible to press. Some presses, they’ll click right on to the next speed or setting, but most of the time, you have to press it several times or press it really hard or at a certain angle to get the hard plastic cover to hit the button underneath just right. Since it’s even harder to press while wearing the cock ring, I’ll usually turn it on and put it on the setting I want before putting it on (which can still be a pain).

My other cock rings are all soft plastic, so I noticed right away that this silicone ring is much firmer (the silicone tip of the vibrator isn’t flexible either) and does not have much stretch at all. I have a difficult time getting it on while flaccid (even more difficult if I’m already hard), but once it’s on it feels great. Putting lube around the inside of the ring keeps my pubes from being pulled. Since there is hardly any give in the stretch, it’s very snug. Although I don’t have any discomfort, it seems to be borderline too tight on me (I’m average in girth). After climaxing, I go soft right away, so it just slides off (especially with the lube), but if I tried to take it off while being hard still, I’m not sure I’d be able to. Because of the weight of the vibrator top, the vibrator doesn’t stay put in one spot. It doesn’t move around on my penis, but it makes my penis twist to one side or the other. This is probably the case with all vibrating cock rings with a top-heavy and unbalanced vibrator on top, but again this is my first one, and it’s kind of annoying. When using in combination with penetrative sex, I was constantly adjusting to keep it lined up as it tried to slip to the left or right.

I expected it to be a toy for my wife and I to enjoy together, but the enjoyment has been one sided. After trying it out several times together in different positions, my wife doesn’t like it. The shape of the vibrator was not a good match for her clit, so the buzzing tip and textured ridges made no difference when she tried grinding on it, and when I was moving, the firm and weighted top kept smacking her. When I wear it, it basically vibrates my whole penis, and she didn’t like the feeling of my buzzy penis vibrating inside her. She tried using it solo just to see how the vibes were when just held on her clit, the vibes were fine, but it buzzed her hands too much, so she’s probably just about done with it now.

As for me, I really like the sensations the vibrations give me, so I’ll continue using this cock ring for solo play. I like using my wife’s clit vibrators on my balls, so I thought I’d like wearing it backwards and upside down on my penis (with the vibrator cupping the front of my balls), but the most comfortable and stimulating way I’ve found to wear it is still just upright because of the way the vibrations carry along my penis. The vibrations make my penis extra sensitive (in a good way) and my climaxes more intense. I like the extra stimulation when I use it along with my prostate massager, and it makes my (non vibrating) Fleshlights feel like vibrating toys. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to heighten their sensations, but there’s no guarantee that your partner will get the same pleasure out of it.

Overall Rating: 3 out of 5 stars

Pros: Good vibrations along my penis. Smooth silicone. Stylish design and coloring.

Cons: Ring is tight with minimal stretch. Buttons are difficult to press. Vibrator doesn’t stay in place.

Bottom Line: My wife doesn’t like it, so I’ll enjoy the vibrations solo.

Red Hot Rechargeable Silicone Flickering Tongue Vibrator

Hum or flick? Take your pick!

I love this vibrator! I use a vibrator on my clit most days, as well as almost every time I have penetrative sex, so I was thrilled that this one was not a dud! The silicone is soft, and I love the bright red color. It’s lightweight, quiet, and the tip is super flexible. The included guide/instructions are not specific to this vibrator, just a general safety guide for Cal Exotics products. The writing on the packaging had more helpful “get started” info than in the guide. The vibrator only has one button that is very simple to use: a long hold to turn on and off and a quicker press to move through the speeds and patterns. So far the battery has been amazing. I was worried because some reviewers were unhappy with how long the battery lasted between charges. I charged it fully when it arrived (flashing red light while charging and solid red light when fully charged), and without a second charge in the first three weeks, it didn’t die on me despite being used very regularly (I’ve since charged it). The charging hole is covered with self-healing silicone, so it’s waterproof (the product page says “waterproof: splashproof”, so not sure if it’s safe to submerge) and very easy to clean. It doesn’t come with a storage bag, so I got a little bag separately to protect it from lint and dust.

I love how thin and narrow the tip of the vibrator is. I feel like it should be obvious that it feels nothing like a tongue. Its vibrations are more of a tapping or flicking, different from the buzzy and rumbly vibrations of the other vibrators I own. This one is perfect for tapping against either side of my clit, the top of my clit, the base of my clit, or running up and down my inner labia - all depending on my mood and where I want to feel it. The different speeds are perfect for me - low speed when I want to take it slow or medium and high speeds if I need a quicker orgasm. The higher the speed, the wider the tip flicks, so if I press it against my skin, it hums against me, and if I pull it away from my skin, it starts flicking a little harder. I’m pretty juicy on my own, but I’ve found that using a little lube on my clit helps me avoid soreness when using the vibrator repeatedly throughout the day. I just have to be careful when pulling the vibrator off my skin as the lube starts to flick everywhere if I don’t turn it off quickly. Since the tip is thin, it doesn’t get in the way when having sex or using a dildo like some of my thicker/chunkier vibrators do. I’m also happy that the vibrations don’t carry down to my hand, so I can use it without buzzing my hands off or having to swap hands every couple minutes. I haven’t noticed it heating up in my hand while in use either.

This vibrator delivers a different sensation that I’d recommend to anyone who who enjoys clitoral stimulation : )

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Pros: The flicking/tapping vibes. Thin and narrow tip. Precision stimulation. Soft silicone.

Cons: No storage bag. Lack of instructions.

Bottom Line: Highly recommend for clit vibe lovers!

Lovehoney Fresh Toy Cleaner 8.5 fl. oz

Keeping it clean!

It’s is keeping my toys clean and fresh. It smells good, but doesn’t have a strong scent. The spray nozzle makes it even easier to use. Glad it has a cap, so it stores easily and travels safely.

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Pros: The scent is good but not too strong

Cons: No complaints

Bottom Line: Necessary for anyone who uses sex toys!

Aneros Helix Syn Trident Silicone Prostate Massager

Got Prostate? This is a must try!

Great for a beginners. Enjoyable for the experts.

Packaging:
The Syn comes packaged in a nice, little red booklet styled box that makes it easy for toy storage. I wouldn’t necessarily store it on your book shelf (wouldn’t that be a crazy surprise for someone that’s unaware!), but definitely makes it easy to keep clean and out of the way. In addition, it includes a little booklet with some nice instructions on use of the product.

Pleasure:
Now, this is a review from someone that is new to devices like these. This was nice as it is specifically designed for prostate massages. The process to insert was comfortable so long as you are relaxed. Once inserted about half way, the rest just slides in. From there, its very subtle and fun to just listen to your body!

Design:
The syn is made with a weighted base and a silicone shell. The design is receives 5 stars hands down. Its shaped specifically for prostate pleasure and you can tell there has been significant thought put in to how to perfectly shape this toy for that purpose. The tabs are also silicone, and they are rigid enough to do the job, but not so much that it is uncomfortable.

Quality:
For being a silicone-esk toy, I was pleasantly surprised on the quality. The tabs are well designed, not too hard as to be uncomfortable and the weighted base backs up the silicone to make it substantial.

Value: I purchased this off of a Black Friday sale. That being said, the value was worth it even without a sale.

Overall, this receives a Happytobehere 5 stars.

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Pros: Well engineered, easy to clean, simple to use

Cons: Nothing

TLDR: Great for a beginners. Enjoyable for the experts.

njoy Pure Wand Stainless Steel Dildo

The Thor’s Hammer of Toys: Shocking…

Phew… The NJOY Pure Wand is a beast. 8" of pure medical grade steel. Miles (or km dependent of where you are from) of fun to go with that.

Packaging: You would swear you were receiving an engagement band with how this is packaged. Granted, a 8" long engagement band, but still that is saying something. After opening up the njoy box, you see the Pure Wand, which is laid in a pink satin material and fits snugly the box. I wish more manufacturers took the time to design their packing like this because it definitely makes the experience special.

Design: The design is receives 5 stars hands down. Its shaped specifically for prostate/g-spot pleasure and and you can tell there has been significant thought put in to how to perfectly shape this toy for that purpose. The Pure Wand is designed with two bulbous ends, which allows for enjoyment of both novice and experienced players. That coupled with the mirror finish all around removes any question of uncomfortable edges. njoy has definitely perfected their QA/QC process.

Pleasure:
When you insert this, you might as well be feeling the lighting from Thor’s hammer. The steel of ice cold is the first sensation. But don’t worry you will quickly warm the Pure Wand with your body heat to bring you back to Earth (kinda). At that point, your g-spot / prostate is at the mercy of whatever bulbous end you inserted! Now, this is a review from someone that is new to devices like these. This was nice as it is specifically designed for those massages. The process to insert was comfortable so long as you are relaxed and lubed up. From there, its fun to just listen to your body and enjoy the sensations!

Quality:
Did I mention that this has a mirror finish? njoy finished this toy with excellence. Because of the grade of the toy, there is no rusting, it is easy to clean and even easier to store safely. This is one of the highest quality toys that is going to stumble into you (pun intended) and you have no worry of sharp edges (as you may have with some glass alternatives). Quality is not a hurdle for the Pure Wand.

Value: I purchased this off of a Black Friday sale. That being said, it was still expensive even with the discount. If you are on a budget, there are likely other products that will do comparably for you. If you have the cash to buy this, its definitely worth it.

Overall, this receives a Happytobehere 5 stars.

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Pros: Easy to clean, sleek design and easy to use

Cons: High cost, may be out of some’s budget

TLDR: The NJOY Pure Wand is a beast. 8" of pure medical grade steel. Extremely high quality.

Sex Ed: A Guide for Adults

Puts the School Stuff to Shame

I know you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, but for this I’ll make an exception. Such an eye-catching design and that funky art runs seamlessly through the book. Reminiscent of Yellow Submarine if you ask me. Great to look at and even humorous at times. While quite feminine in appearance, it does have some male related topics in here too. Something for everyone in fact. It’s also excellent quality with nice paper stock. Glad I got a psychical copy instead of an ebook version.

I like the way the images don’t shy away from certain things like period sex, for example. Helps remove the stigma, right? Not only that, but there’s a large variety of body shapes to appreciate. The language is liberal and funny. Very loud and proud - almost verging on aggressive at times. While inclusive terms are certainly present, some of the text was hard to read like it was getting too long winded to get through one sentence. Other times the text boxes could jump around the page. I often found myself getting a bit muddled and had to re-read again with some. The bright art pops against the writing which made the other text-only pages seem boring by comparison. The language, themes and topics reminded me of the Oh Joy, Sex Toy comics which I’m already a fan of.

One of my favourite aspects is the little classroom-like questions/activities it prompts you to ask yourself. How about sending a love letter to your genitals or defining what sex means to you? There’s blank boxes to fill in with a pen/pencil, but the book seems too nice to ruin with my chicken scratches so I preferred to write my stuff on a separate piece of paper. I looked forward to these while reading through the book. Sadly, these interactive parts phase out later on. I want more! More!

After this sex ed, you’re sure to be clued up on all things coitus. Way better than the stuff you got (didn’t get) in school. Some things you wouldn’t even think of like a playlist of songs to masturbate to. There’s a couple of gems that I still listen to just because I love them - especially the French songs. Ooo la la! No real mention of baby making which is good for a change with something titled Sex Ed. Yay! Most of the focus is on pleasure, happiness and acceptance.

I enjoyed reading most of the book, but drifted in and out of the chapters/topics I wasn’t as interested in. Pages are boldly marked, so you can flick to something that’s more your thing. Might have been more helpful to include a detailed index as the book is teaming with stuff. It may be just me, but I don’t think I learned anything new as I have a few books about sex already. So it’s more for pretty pictures than anything for me. A good buy if you haven’t read much before that, though.

As the title suggests, it is aimed towards adults. Not one to really pass to a teen who is having sex ed classes in school. Although, I definitely wish I was taught some of these things back when I was young. Would have been much more helpful and insightful. Another thing I thought was interesting were the quotes from other people. Goes to show everyone is different and there are people that feel the same way you do.

Overall, it’s a quality sex ed book with so many topics to go through. No shame here and nothing is off the table. There wasn’t much new stuff I could take away from it, but still a worthwhile read regardless.

Overall Rating: 5/5

Pros: Quality and hard cover. Funky art style. Insightful and modern. Written activities. Removes stigmas.

Cons: Needs more prompts and art. Some text hard to follow. Needed more of a detailed index.

Bottom Line: I may not have learned anything new, but it’s still a worthwhile read with great art.

Penis Pokey Illustrated Book

How Versatile is your Virile Member?

This is such a worthwhile addition to Birthday or Christmas celebrations for a cheeky giggle and lots of fun. I bought it as a joke present for my OH on his Birthday and it went down very well.

It is sensibly made, each page being a little over 1mm think, sturdy cardboard so hopefully no sliced, diced or mangled members will result from the use of this interactive adventure. The pictures are bright, bold and hilarious, each one telling a story about it’s interactive star. In my OH’s case photos of the pages, minus the star of the show of course, were sent around to his friends straight away upon unwrapping amassing much mirth.

Without giving too much away, there are pages for a flaccid penis insertion, right through to a fireman’s bulging hose shooting great streams of liquid and a lot of thought has been put into what different situations your shlong will shine in.

We did have a slight issue when I went to consume the monkey’s banana which resulted in it significantly swelling and not wanting to come back out of the page. The horrified comment was made, “How am I going to explain all the paper cuts on my penis to the doctor?” I am pleased to say that given a little time and very gentle manipulating his member did emerge unscathed but we would prefer the hole to be larger for settings where the penis is required to stand to attention!

Ask yourself, can your (or your partner’s) penis display fear when hanging from a fishing hook about to be gobbled by a sharp toothed fish? Can it show the jovial expression of Nessie’s face bobbing about the Loch? Can it cum on command when the fireman turns his hose on? There are quite a few more settings but I don’t wish to give away any more spoilers… suffice to say, it’s a lot of fun!

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Pros: It’s a lot of fun, it’s interactive, what’s not to love?

Cons: In some situations the placement hole could do with being a bit bigger!

Bottom Line: A great value Giggle

Lovehoney Plus Size Lotus Black Sheer Embroidered Bra Set

Uncovered

As a 16 on top, 18/20 on the bottom, with a B cup, one size bra sets are not something i tend to order much. But i have to say the 18/20 set fitted surprisingly well. The fabric is very soft and slightly sheer in places giving a nice effect with the black, slightly raised, textured print of the flowers.

I really love the bra on this set. The half cups where incredibly sexy when on, and sturdy giving excellent support for my B cup bust. I liked how they give a slight push up effect which in combination with the long line of the bra and delicate floral pattern was very sexy.
The cups themselves where very comfortable and fitted with some room. i felt i could have easily put some silicone bra inserts in there and still had room to work with. They didn’t gape or sag though and overall looked very attractive.
The removable cup tops are floaty and more decorative than practical as they provide no support. They’re pretty on, though i preferred the look without, but did take a couple of goes to remove as some of the hooks are rather small.

The shoulder straps are very stretchy and fitted my wide shoulders incredibly comfortably. Something i often struggle with on bras. The clasps are very close together at the back, so theres not a lot of adjustment. But it fitted my 40B’s surprisingly well and was only a tad loose on the back of the band.

The suspender belt is the type that sits high on the waist. which, though pretty when on, was not the best design for me and my curves. Due to its stretchiness I found it had an annoying habit of rolling up whenever i lay down or bent over. Its elasticity all over did mean it fitted my 18/20 curves very well though and was very comfy. The suspender straps had larger clips than i’ve seen before, which made attaching the stocking much less fiddly. I did find the straps positioned strangely closely together on the belt though. they where very stretchy and held the stockings well, but i Would have preferred the straps to be further apart a bit as it would have given more support to the stockings.

I just couldn’t get on with the underwear. I found the cut very strange and They just did nothing for me, especially from the back where they made my bum look big(er). They did fit well though, where very soft, comfy and easy to put on with good access underneath. So if the style is to your taste, then they do feel great when on and the straps sit nicely on the hip.

Personally i loved the bra part pf this set so much and will definitely be putting it with other knickers in the future. The suspender belt was also a nice piece, and though not the nessisarily best shape for me personally is definitely one i’d wear again.

Overall Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

Pros: Bra was very sexy and so comfy, suspenders easy to hook stockings to

Cons: belt had Tendency to roll up, straps could have been spaced Better. Didn’t find pants flattering.

Bottom Line: Some small flaws. Knickers not for me, but overall good set. Adored the bra, so comfy and sexy.

Sweet Smile Extra Large Silicone Jiggle Balls 200g

Filling, Weighty and Deliciously Jigglesome

These are described as an excellent workout for experienced Kegel ball wearers but I really don’t think that this is the case. Don’t get me wrong, I like them very much and for what I bought them for they are ideal but they are not a serious kegel muscle workout as they are far too large. These are for fun not exercise!

By my measurements of my set each ball has a 14 cm or 5½ inch circumference and on the kitchen scales they weigh 198g so almost what is quoted. They are certainly fairly weighty and sizeable to pop in. Dab of lube and I’m good to go though.

I wore these when the OH and I went out for dinner at a local pub with friends. The sensation you get from them is not as strong as with the more powerful vibrating internal toys but whenever you move you can feel the free movement jiggle and the weight and it feels very good. You also have the advantage that there’s no noise so they’re ideal for situations where you don’t want a tell tale buzz and if you’re out for a prolonged time you’re not going to reach that annoying point of the evening when a flat battery finishes play.

They are heavy, they are filling and you can feel them move whenever you move. They are not going to make you suddenly orgasm in the middle of the supermarket but when I returned home from our night out the evidence was certainly there that I’d had a good time, was wet and ready to go… though it was a bit of a tug of war with my vagina to get them out - apparently I didn’t want to let go!

If you are looking for a serious Kegel exercise for experienced, toned muscles I’d go with very small but weighty free roaming balls as you really don’t need strong muscles to keep these big boys in. However, if you’re looking for something fun to wear out and get you warmed up for when you get home these hit the spot really well.

They are extremely easy to clean - blitz of sex toy cleaner and warm water is all you need. I would recommend getting a little bag to store them in when not in use but basically they do what you expect and do it well.

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Pros: Filling, weighty, jigglesome and leave you ready for sex.

Cons: A little storage pouch would be beneficial.

Bottom Line: For fun rather than exercise.

Lovehoney Sweet Love Pink Bra Set and Eye Mask

The Sweetest

If you were to ask me to describe a lingerie set that was called “Sweet Love,” I’d probably say: pink, flirty, cute, with frills and hearts, and a touch of excitement and romance. And this is exactly what this set is.

It arrived quickly and discretely, as always with Lovehoney. Inside the plain outer packaging sat the lingerie folded inside a pink envelope and sealed with a rich red ribbon. Immediate thoughts were this would be a fantastic gift, and no wrapping necessary.

The set contains a bra, thong, suspender belt and eye mask, with pink and red being a running theme throughout. I’m a size 10 on top, 12 on bottom, 36C and 5ft6. This is a One Size set.

From top to bottom and starting with the eye mask; the design is certainly different from anything I’ve seen before but I like it. It fits comfortably and there’s a good amount of stretch in the band. It can be worn with the set for a more sensual experience or, like me, as a part of down-time and to relax.

I adore the bra. The spotted mesh with the frills, albeit delicate, appear playful and sweet. The thick red straps, below the bust and in the halter neck, bring support and plenty of adjustability with both being elasticated, plus I find halter necks often bring a little bit of an uplift. The crochet hearts covering the nipples are perfectly placed and don’t reveal too much. Both bands are secured at the back with G-hooks which I’ve always found a little fiddly if I can’t see, but they sit securely once fastened.

My favourite element of this set is the suspender skirt. Another thick red band sits across the waist and flows into the same pink mesh as the bra. The material sits over the hips and distracts from any insecurities in that area that may lie underneath. I find it really flatters my shape, and I’ve taken great joy in prancing around in this set and allowing the skirt to swish as it catches the air. 4 matching ruby red suspender straps peek out from below the skirt; I paired it with red stockings and they worked really well together. The straps are detachable, though, and the set still looks wonderful without.

Finally, the thong! The mesh, the straps and the crochet heart all come together to form this piece. The adjustable sliders on the hips are easy to alter, and the band is very elasticated to cater to your fit. The heart is just so dainty and attracts the eye to your bum.

Overall a very welcome addition to my lingerie drawer. The materials are fantastic quality throughout, and the eye for detailing hasn’t gone unnoticed. So happy and fills me with confidence!

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Pros: colours, materials, components, the skirt, details

Cons: The fastenings can be fiddly

Lovehoney Fantasy Risky Business Top and PVC Skirt Set

Boss in the Bedroom one night, Solicitous Sexcretary the next

I am just short of 5’9", a size 12 - 14 overall but very pear shaped (36-28-40) and a member of the itty bitty titty committee with only petite A cup boobs. I got my Risky Business in M/L and I really, really like this outfit.

The skirt first, I am a big fan of the feel of tight PVC over skin and I defy anyone not to want to stroke, caress, and yes, spank a tight PVC clad bottom. I think the cut is extremely suited to my horse riding sculpted very round behind. The fishnet sections have some stretch in them to keep it snug but the hem at the bottom though elastic where the fishnet is remains pretty tight and restrictive on me but I rather like this feeling of being restricted. The zip on the back runs the full length and can unzip from either the top or bottom so allowing plenty of versatility, the tags are metal but the zip itself is plastic but very secure and runs well. I personally favour being bent over the desk, unzipped a little from the hem and the skirt pulled up around my waist… but that’s just my preference. Be unzipped from the top and pull down to restrict your movement if you prefer.

The top is also great, it is however a lot more shear than it appears in the model photos. Skin and nipples are very, very visible but through the material this looks really hot. I’m also an appreciator of collars on shirts as they balance up my small boobs. It has been cleverly thought out in terms of design for the exhilarating total reveal. Single knot tie and then poppers for you to either rip your own shirt open or have it dramatically ripped open for you with no damage done. For me the top fits well but would accomodate and probably benefit from larger domes than mine however I still love it. If you are significantly larger though and not gravity defyingly pert there is no support built in so you might want to take this into consideration.

Whether you’re the boss who wants your employee to earn their next raise outside of the boardroom or the business partner going for a hostile takeover or simply the well dressed secretary who’s boss needs you to take a long DICKtation you’ll feel the part in this simple two piece.

Pair with some killer heeled, spiked stilettos and get your erotic am-dram on.

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Pros: Clever, well thought out design features, allure of bottom in tight PVC.

Cons: Nothing.

Bottom Line: A great addition to the bedroom dressing up box.

Lovehoney Mindful Black Lace Plunging Body

Mindful

This teddy was delivered in the normal Lovehoney packaging and inside a ‘Mindful’ biodegradable bag. The Mindful range is a great step for LH, and this teddy proves that lingerie made from recycled materials could be the next big thing.

This teddy felt heavy before I even removed it from its packaging. The black floral lace which flows throughout is stretchy and durable; it isn’t necessarily delicate like you find with a lot of lingerie. It can certainly take a few tugs.

I stepped into it. It became a little tight around my size 12 hips and I heard a couple of stitches pop despite trying to gently shimmy into it, but once over my hips the waistband sat comfortably and the lace flowed over my bum. At 5ft6, I had no issues with the length. It sat without digging in anywhere.

I adjusted the sliders on the racerback style straps to tighten the fit in the chest slightly, and there’s another slider at the back on the band to give or take a couple of inches. I’m a size 10 on top and a 36C and this piece is a M/L. It gave a relaxed, comfortable fit while also keeping my boobs in (although you can get a little peak of skin through the lace which I really enjoy).

I think the little ‘keyhole’ in the chest adds an element of sex appeal, as well as the relatively low cut to the back, however I see myself lounging around the house in this more than anything… it’s that comfy. And if you want to wear it to bed (literally to bed… as nightwear), I wouldn’t blame you.

I personally wouldn’t normally choose the mint green against the black but it works. It’s a little different, but different, as proved, can be a good thing!

Overall Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

Pros: fit, comfort, material

Cons: slightly tight over hips

Bottom Line: comfortable, cute, ethically aware, and great to wear in the bedroom (as lingerie or nightwear!)

Fifty Shades of Grey Sweet Anticipation Faux Leather Ankle Cuffs

Better than a boquet

These cuffs are really beautiful. The red rose pattern is classy and very sexy, with a nice shine to it. The fabric of the cuff is soft but durable and well finished. I also like that the 50 shades branding is on the underneath of the tongue, as i often find it distracts from the look of items.

These are actually the most comfortable pair of cuffs Ive tried, and really minimise pressure on the ankle when on. They fit well for my 28 cm/11 inch ankles on the 3rd Hole, and where reasonably easy to do up. Though the buckle design does make a bit more of a fiddle.

The double ended chain is solid and a nice length, especially if you want cuffs with a bit more movement, and is fully removable so could easily be exchanged for a double d clip if you want something more restricting.

My one concern with this set is that the buckle has some sort of rotating section built into it, which seems a rather strange design and does make me wonder how much hard play they’d withstand. Though i failed to bend this when i had a go, if your someone who puts a lot of strain on your gear, you may want to pick a sturdier set. For lighter use though they where purfectly fine and i had no issues with them.

Pros: Gorgeous, Incredibly comfortable, fully removable chain, branding hidden

Cons: Rotating Buckle design not so good for rough play

Bottom Line: So comfy and Pretty as a picture but possibly not for rougher play

Ps. Didnt actually realise these guys where reversible at the time i wrote the review. Naturally i ended up using them pattern outward. The red side is not quite as soft as the black and i definitely prefer them this way round.

Fantasy Pink Satin Tie-Up Bralette Set

Gutted.

I had this bra set in my saved items for a long time, debating buying it but being aware of negative reviews. I think reviews are important and in this instance should be taken on board.

At size 10 on top, 12 on bottom and 36C, I knew I didn’t quite have the measurements of the model, but I hoped it’d still flatter me, somehow, surely. I received this in One Size.

The pink satin is beautiful. It’s smooth, sexy and feels lovely against the skin, and if this piece worked then it’d look great. There’s an element of stretch throughout.

I like the tie-sides of the thong; I know my OH would have great fun untying them and revealing what’s underneath. Getting a nice bow does seem to take practice though! I can’t fault the thong much, but there are loose threads and this continues with the bra.

I slipped the bra on and attempted a half decent bow. It didn’t flatter my boobs at all or hold them in place, nor did it stay in place itself. It felt quite delicate and all the loose threads didn’t fill me with much hope, however I saved it for another day and put it on to show my OH. It didn’t compliment my body how I hoped it would despite my OH saying how much he loved it.

An absolute shame because I really, really liked how it looked from the pictures.

Overall Rating: 2 out of 5 stars

Pros: material, colour, ties

Cons: no support, poor build quality

Bottom Line: sexy in theory but didn’t quite work

Fifty Shades of Grey Sweet Anticipation Silicone Ballgag

The Anticipation is Worth the Wait

I’m always looking for accessories, of any sort, that will suit my appearance. With bright red hair, a pale complexion and dark glasses, this ballgag not only matches perfectly but turns me from girl next door to a gagged, begging submissive.

The ballgag arrives in a brown Fifty Shades of Grey envelope and inside a branded black drawstring bag. I always appreciate toys that come with storage bags included, particularly toys or accessories that have silicone, like the ball of this gag, to avoid attracting dust/fluff.

The ballgag itself has a couple of tags attached with safety, care and storage instructions on. I’m not a newbie to ballgags but will always read the labels.

The gag itself has a soft faux leather strap, with the inside being plain black and the outer depicting a sensual red and black floral, shimmery design. What’s better, the gag can be worn either way as it’s entirely reversible.

There are a few inches worth of velcro to play around with to cater to your size. I find it fits well with plenty of velcro leftover, although only issue I’ve found so far is that I’ve caught my hair a few times while securing the straps.

The ball is a comfortable size and made of silicone, so very easy to clean and isn’t too firm to bite down on. Each side of the ball there is a stretchy silicone extension which comes in very useful for any extended periods of use where I often find the corners of my mouth may get a little sore.

The silicone and the straps are connected by black D rings which are very secure. I can’t fault the build quality of this ballgag at all! There are no loose threads, snags or marks, and a lot of attention has gone into the overall colour coordination, the storage and great quality materials.

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Pros: design, reversible, materials, colours, fit

Cons: my hair never fails to get stuck in the velcro!

Lovehoney Feline Frisky Leopard Print Catsuit Costume

A Frisky Feline

Thank you Lovehoney for sending me this classic cat costume to review.

Off the bat, this isn’t really something I’d consider bedroom attire (nothing stopping it being, though) as it’s more in the Halloween costume department. There’s a very 70s Josie and the Pussy Cats vibe to it which is cool. A style gone by perhaps, but is nowhere near using up its nine lives just yet. There’s no secret zips or holes to be found so you’ll have to take most of it off if you need to use the loo or something more wild.

The materials are decent. Smooth and stretchy which is similar to leggings. I enjoyed running my paws across it. Mostly comfortable, but the only part that scritched and scratched were the inner seams at the top of the black legs. Pretty noticeable when walking and could be irritating after a while. Beware if you’re going to wear this out and about as it won’t keep you warm at all! BRR! From the backside it has some coverage but isn’t quite squat proof. Seamless underwear or a light thong should help. It may also be due to the suit pattern going paler around the ass area, too. Didn’t notice the surface seams that much as they tended to get blended out by the spots.

The ear headband is very basic, but goes well with the rest of the suit. Glad it wasn’t the fluffy kind. They arrived disassembled and you adjust the ears along the headband to get your preferred position. Pretty straight forward.

It comes with a collar and bell so people can always tell where you are. There’s two sizes to adjust to using the stud button fasteners. The largest feels too big for me, but the smaller one is fine. However, this then makes the back uneven. If you have long enough hair then you can cover up this imperfection. It may also just be me, but I think the collar would have been better in black to balance out the suit more? Imagine a cat having a collar that matches its fur. Odd, right? Anyway, nothing stopping you from switching it out with another one of your choice or even a simple choker.

I’m generally not a fan of low cut neck lines since all they do is remind me that I carry a Small Titty Committee member’s card. Maybe a good bra would help, but I don’t own any like that - just sports ones. Wearing one of my black sporties still seemed to balance well enough. I guess it’s always flattering to show off a bit of skin no matter what you have down them ways, right?

The stretchy belt completes the look and cinches in the middle. The suit looks a bit too plain without it - just adds that instant pizzazz, y’know? As the bold belt draws quite a bit of attention, it may not be best if you’re self conscious around the belly or hip area. Almost like it’s sitting on top of them. You can pull it down or adjust it, but it still tends to gravitate to the same zone regardless. I bet you could also mix the same snazzy belt with other pieces of clothing as well.

Love the tail and the way it hangs. It attaches to a tiny loop on the back so you can barely see how it’s staying there. It sits just at the right spot where a tail would probably be. I enjoyed making it move and shake a little too much. You have to be careful with it though because it wouldn’t take much to snap the loop or tear the back if the tail was pulled too hard. You could also turn the belt around and attach it to the straps if you wanted to for a higher tail, I guess? It has a bendable wire inside so you can add a bit of shape to it. Another fun factor it has is that the tail can be taken off and used like a whip! Don’t worry! The wire has foam around it so it doesn’t sting… much.

As a UK size 8 at 5’1, the S/M (8-10) suit fits for the most part. There’s some slight looseness around the shoulders and arms, but it certainly isn’t baggy. I also like the thumb holes for a sleeker and claw-like look. The fit was best around my ass and thighs which showed them off. It was everything below here that had issues. Afraid I’m a bit too short in the legs which is a common problem I have with pants and leggings. Anything south of the knees hangs loose with the feet parts being the most noticeable like giant socks. Even walking around made them limbo lower by themselves so be careful in case they get in the way. I thought it was an odd choice to have the feet sewn up (like tights). Having open ones may have made it slightly more fixable? Pulling them up would just make them fold around the thighs so that’s a no go. The suit looks amazing on the size 8 LH model, but she has an extra 9 inches on me. So I guess this won’t fit quite right if you’re vertically challenged or have short legs like me. You can try to combat this by wearing high boots to cover the loose areas. It may look like you’re wearing two sets of boots with the black designs on the legs, but it beats the other way I suppose?

It’s basically the same material as some of my leggings so I knew it would be safe in the washing machine. It doesn’t take too long to dry either. There was no noticeable change in the fit or quality afterwards. Only the main body requires cleaning as the rest of the accessories aren’t exactly in the firing lines to get dirty. A quick wipe over should do those. This is quite a sizable set, so you may want to think about storage options and keeping it together.

Overall, I think the set is cool and frisky. Adorable pointy ears that don’t grind my gears. Chest on show where it’s best. A collar and bell that don’t go so well, but at least the ass is class. And most importantly, excess fabric around the feet isn’t so neat. Even though my partner doesn’t like leopard print, he still admired how much you got in the set and the way it showed off my figure. He was in agreement with the leg parts, though. Sad meow. Just wish I was taller or had longer legs to fully appreciate the garment in all its growling glory.

(My photos here)

Overall Rating: 4/5

Pros: Tail. That 70s vibe. Easy to clean. Cool belt. Cute, simple ears. Get quite a bit in set.

Cons: My legs aren’t long enough to appreciate it fully. Itchy seams. Collar. Low neck line.

Bottom Line: 80% PAW-some and 20% CAT-astrophic.

Exposed Lust Studded Wet Look Open Front Strappy Teddy

Boobs framed and on display!

I LOVE THIS TEDDY!!! It is so so sexy with the shiny, studded straps framing my chest! I’m SO happy it fits!! I wear size 2-4 US, 36C, 5’00” with a 27” waist and 35” hips, and I bought the one size (4-8). I thought it wouldn’t fit because the only teddies that have fit so far are the really stretchy ones, but I loved the look of this teddy and planned that if the top part fit but the middle was maybe too long, I was going to do a little snipping and DIY to make it fit me, but when I tried it on, it fit perfectly! Still not sure the right way to put the teddy on, if it’s better to slip the center band (that goes around my ribs and back) over my head/shoulders or pull it up from my hips/butt (either way feels a little snug to get pulled up or down), but I keep managing to get it on, so maybe it doesn’t matter. This is another piece that I don’t think I’d be able to get on correctly in the dark, I always have to untwist, untangle, and examine it before putting it on.

The wet look fabric is slick, smooth, shiny, and has a bit of a stretch. It’s pretty similar fabric to the Mapale wet look pieces and not as shiny as the Lovehoney Fierce collection. You can’t see in the picture, but the neck is fastened in the back with velcro. The velcro fasteners are stitched on well. When I first saw the velcro closure, I was worried that the neck would be too large and would wind up loose (or that if I tightened it too much, the tip of the velcro would stick out), but it fit comfortably, not too loose or tight around my neck when fastened with the edges of the velcro squared up (just measured, my neck is around 12”). Another piece I bought a few months ago had a velcro fastened neck, but it was poorly stitched and wound up really cheapening the look and feel of it, so I was pleased with this one.

I was disappointed when I noticed that the hip straps were twisted upon opening. I thought they must have been sewn on twisted and that was that, but then noticed the g string wasn’t stitched to the hip straps - it’s sewn into a little loop so it can slide on the hip straps, and I was able to untwist the hip straps, so now it’s perfect! Another big pro with that sliding loop is that we can easily pull the g string to the side of one cheek (like the back of a jock strap) to keep it out of the way for oral and penetrative sex. I thought I would’ve liked having a metal ring where the g string meets the hip straps (as it would’ve kept the studded and metal look from top to bottom), but I really like being able to slide the g string to the side when it’s time to get down to business.

The only downside that I’ve found is the way the studs are fastened to the wet look fabric. Each stud has 4 sharp pieces that pierce the fabric, and then they’re bent in to secure them in place. I haven’t been worried about being scratched at all (they’re bent in well), but some of the prongs look like they’re barely hanging onto the fabric, and if handled roughly, I think some of the studs could fall out, so I’m being careful so that it will last.

I feel SO sexy when I wear this. My husband loves the edgy look. When I showed it to him on the site before ordering it, he said it might be a bit much (for his taste in lingerie), but when I wear it for him, it’s just right! I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a hot edgy piece!!

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Pros: Sexy studded frame around chest. G string slides out of the way.

Cons: Studs not all secure. Center strap a little snug to pull up (over hips) or down (over shoulders).

Bottom Line: Perfect for an edgy and dramatic look!

Mapale Wet Look Triangle Bra

Not the wet look I wanted

I wear size 2/4US depending on the style, 36C, and I bought the S/M. I love how this bra looks on the LH model, but I knew as soon as I got it that it wasn’t for me. The fit is just like a swimsuit top that ties behind the neck and back, but the string material felt really flimsy, like it would easily tear or break if I tied it too tight or pulled on it too hard. The triangle cup material also feels really flimsy and thin, like my nail could easily scrape and rip the material. Additionally, the material does not have the same “wet” look as other Maple Wet Look items. I got two other Mapale Wet Look items (thong and ruffle mini skirt) that I like, and the material on the other two is totally different, much more durable feeling and thicker. After trying it on to be sure, I put it back in it’s bag and returned it. (And LH did a great job processing my return!)

Overall Rating: 1 out of 5 stars

Pros: Adjustable fit for different body shapes

Cons: Flimsy and cheap feeling material

Bottom Line: Not for me, returned this bra

Lovehoney Rose-Patterned Lace Stockings

Too big and loose

The material was soft, and the lace pattern was really pretty, but the stockings were way too big. I’m size 2/4 US (5’00”), and I bought the one size (4-12). When I pulled the stockings to the very top of my thighs, they were still loose and looked baggy. The material around my ankles was not tight enough to cling and curve with my ankle but sat an inch off my skin. Also, they looked a lot darker on my legs because the material wasn’t stretched to reveal the rose pattern more clearly. I was really disappointed because they looked so cute on the LH model, but I was swimming in them, so I returned them.

Overall Rating: 2 out of 5 stars

Pros: Pretty lace pattern and soft material

Cons: Too long and loose

Bottom Line: Too big if you’re short and size 2/4

Male Power Satin Thong

Bright Shiny Blue

I really like the look of this thong, and the fit is just right! I bought the S/M in blue (I’m 6’00” with a 32” waist). The fabric is very bright, flashy, and has a nice shine. It feels more slick than soft. The crotch area has a good sized pouch and is a comfortable fit for my penis and balls without being too tight. The waistband and all the edges have a good stretch. The fabric on the pouch is not as stretchy as the edges, but still has a bit of a stretch (not as stretchy as my other thongs). If I get an erection with it on, it gets a bit tight to leave it in the thong, but it’s easy to pull down the front or slip it out to the side.

My only complaint is that the seam under my balls (where it connects to the edge stitching on each side) is a little rough and scratchy on my skin, but it’s just that one seam, the other seams are fine. My wife really likes how it looks on me, so the stylish look of the thong outweighs the slight discomfort, but when I plan on wearing a thong for longer than an hour, I choose a more comfortable one (without scratchy seams). Wearing thongs like this one has given me more confidence in the bedroom!

Overall Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

Pros: Bright blue color. Shiny fabric. Good sized pouch. Stretchy waistband and edges.

Cons: Scratchy seam under my balls.

Bottom Line: Flashy, attention grabbing thong!
