It's Kinda Blue, I Guess That Counts

Don't let the absence of extremely high quality here fool you, this is still a nice set to have around. It's only meant to be used a few times, but you should enjoy those few times while you're wearing it. The dangling accessories accentuate the body somehow instead of getting in the way like a lot of dangling accessories do.

extremely useful review
We've all heard the old tradition of having something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue on your wedding day. This piece of lingerie is something you'd wear on your wedding night, and while it isn't exactly blue, it will be new to you, and can be a lot of fun.

It came in a nice plastic envelope from California Exotics. The front of the package has a picture of the model wearing it from the front, and on the back you get a back/side view. The back also lists the materials. The fabric of the halter top and the thong are both polyester, the blue ribbon is made of nylon, the elastic panty strap is 19% Polyester and 21% Elastic, and the feather accents are turkey feathers.

The packaging says that this is a one size, and I couldn't find a sizing chart anywhere. Personally I'm about 5'2, I weigh about 110, around my bust measures about 31" and underneath measures about 28 1/2". I've got about a 29" waist with 37" hips and I wear a B cup, and this set fit me pretty well; nothing too tight or too loose.

So with this set you're getting the halter top and the thong. They both feature the same white polyester satin as the body, with a light aqua ribbon for accent/tying, and feather looped accents hanging off of more blue ribbon. The satin is meant to be opaque, but if you have a dark tattoo or nipples, they'll show through subtlely. The halter top's cups do a decent job of covering, although the larger your breasts are, the more will be exposed and you can't adjust them either. From the outer edge of each cup it's about 13" across, with each cup only being about 5 1/2" across. Both the cups are attached to a ribbon that also doubles as the back tie, and it's really long. Like, over 5' long, seriously. The neck ribbons aren't quite as long at 19" each, but seriously, this top should fit just about anybody. When you go to untie it, you know how normally when you go to untie something and you just grab one end and pull and it undoes? Can't do that with this ribbon. It feels like it gets tangled up in itself, but if you grab both ends and pull at the same time, almost effortless. The ribbons also don't stretch at all, so if you tie the one under your bust too tight, you'll be able to feel it when you breath. At the top of each cup where the cup meets the tie there's a small ribbon about 4" across. In between the cups there's a circle of feathers and two dangling ribbons with a 2 1/2" circle of feathers attached to each one.



The thong has an interesting design. The 'body' of the thong is shaped like a diamond. It covers well enough, but if you spread your legs at all you can see on the sides where the material just doesn't cover. Elastic meets each point of the diamond in some manner. At the top it's attached to the waist band that goes all the way around. From the side points a strip of elastic comes out to meet the waistband, and from the bottom you get the strip that settles in your buttcrack and meets the waistband. Where it meets the waistband is adjustable though, so if you want it over more to the left or right, that's doable. If your hips are 40" or less around, this should be comfortable on you. The thong also has some accent decorations with a large bow about 6" across at the top of the diamond and the same dangling double accent feather loops coming down about 6" from either side.



California Exotics lingerie was never designed or meant to last for a long time, and it's fairly obvious that this set isn't going to hold up to repeated abuse. The elastic band on the thong tangled up in itself after the first use and has proven difficult to get back into. The edges of all of the ribbons are fraying and the edging around the cups has the puckering satin material peeking through in spots all along the edges in ways it shouldn't be. However, for a few good uses, this will hold up.

You can store it with the rest of your delicates while you're going through your uses. Since it isn't meant to be a long term piece, there weren't any cleaning instructions that came with it, however if you wanted to clean any part of it you could hand wash it carefully and let it air dry. You should also avoid getting the feathers wet at any cost.
Experience
To be honest, I really wasn't expecting much from this set at all. Learning in the recent Q&A with CalExotics that their lingerie wasn't meant to last more than a few uses changed any opinion I had on their lingerie, since if something was designed to hold up to repeated abuse, you really can't fault it when it doesn't. This set certainly isn't going to last a long time, but I know I'll be able to get a few uses out of it.

After I got it on, I liked it a lot more. Sure, it didn't do anything to make my B cups look fantastical or anything, but it didn't make them look smaller. I had to struggle with the cups a little bit every now and then, trying to get them to line up how I thought they should, and the fact that my boobs looked like they were trying to escape made them look bigger to me. The thong was more comfortable than I thought it would be, and the way everything dangled down really did compliment my body. About the only thing I don't like is that the feathers shed some. I have little feathers all over my bed.

Since it wasn't meant to hold up, I really can't fault it for not. For something that you'll wear a few times and then throw out, this isn't all bad and that's why I'm going to give it 4 stars.

    Sounds like this is a cute little set for a mildly kinky couple or for a more romantic night of kink.
