Lovehoney Flirty Indigo Blue Lace Shorts

I've loved the line of Flirty knickers ever since I joined Lovehoney, but was nervous about purchasing them as they sadly aren't available in my actual size. I have been holding out hoping that one day they might appear in a size six, but alas, they have not yet.

I always assumed that the boyshorts would be too big, but after a few reading a few reviews and purchasing a couple of pairs of the tangerine shorts, I decided I had to get some more. I noticed these indigo shorts were also being discontinued, so I picked up a couple of pairs in the sale.

These boyshorts arrived in the same way as all Lovehoney lingerie does, simply folded in a clear plastic pouch with a tag attached. It's not at all fancy, but it's all that's really necessary. It's hard to resist tearing the packaging open straight away to get them anyway.

Once I removed them from the packaging, I couldn't believe how soft they were. They looked extremely comfortable and didn't appear to be itchy at all. They are made excellently, as per all Lovehoney underwear, and I couldn't find a single flaw to mention in this review. I couldn't believe how beautiful the colour was in person either. It's even better than I thought it would be. I'm a sucker for shades of indigo and I honestly don't think Lovehoney could have picked a better colour for these shorts. The colour is further beautified by the floral pattern that is embedded within the lace.

I purchased the boyshorts in the smallest size available, which is the 8-10. I am a four to six on the bottom, but I typically wear a 6-8 in Lovehoney sizing and find this size can be loose-fitting on occasion. Having said that, I considered that these knickers would be far too big, but I was pleasantly surprised when I pulled them on.

They are definitely not tight-fitting on me and I probably couldn't get away with wearing them for everyday wear, but they adapt to my frame well and hold up nicely, although they do sit higher on me than they do on the model. They have a fair amount of stretch to them and these run bigger than the briefs, so they'll easily accommodate the given size range and possibly even a size twelve too.

These boyshorts frame my rear like no other underwear has, and in my other half's opinion this style makes it look great. He'd probably insist on me wearing them every day if he could. I would also wear them every day if I could. If they were in one size down then I probably could get away with it, but for now I'm wearing these to lounge around and sleep in. They're super comfortable and it doesn't even feeling like I'm wearing underwear when I have these on.

Overall, I'm so glad I didn't miss out on this colour. If you're in the size range for the remaining pair or slightly above it then I'd definitely recommend picking up a pair or two whilst you still can!

I love the feel of the material and the colour is amazingly blue!

It was a comfortable size considering I need a big size and I didn't feel it was uncomfortable or tight.

With some websites, I've noticed their bigger sizes aren't big at all but Lovehoney always deliver!

My wife's knicker drawer was looking decidedly out of date and it was time to restock - out with the old in with the new!

We picked this style of knicker based on two things - the style and the look. The positive reviews given helped to seal the deal.

As with all Lovehoney deliveries, the item arrived in a plain envelope. The item packaging is simple but effective. The item itself on initial inspection looked excellent and felt soft to the touch.

So, now my wife has worn the knickers on quite a few occasions now. They launder really well with no pulls or bobbles. The colour is still as vibrant as new and they have lost no shape.

The are so so so comfortable to wear on a daily basis but still, due to the sheer lacy fabric, feel so bloody sexy!!

Definitely on our list for buying again in the future!

I bought my blue boyshorts when they were on sale for £3. By being so popular among the forum members in addition to the great reviews on this page, it was impossible to resist adding this item to my basket.

The boyshorts arrived wrapped in clear plastic. It is nothing fancy, but it does not need to be. Let us be honest, most of us compulsive lingerie buyers just throw ourselves over our Lovehoney orders to get our items out as fast as possible anyway. Most of the time, I barely notice the packaging (even the nice ones) in my haste to try the new item out!

This review might be a bit biased because blue is my favourite colour. Having said that, you probably will not be surprised to hear that the colour of the boyshorts is gorgeous. Drop dead gorgeous. The colour looks exactly as in the pictures on this page. It is the perfect compromise between light and dark blue. It is just in between these colours and I think this colour would be flattering on any bum! Another feature is that the flowers in the lace have a slightly brighter colour than the rest of the lace, which also has a bit of shine to it. This is a beautiful feature that brings these knickers to life and tells you a lot about Lovehoney lingerie - it is all about quality and attention to detail.

The knickers are well made. They are made out of two pieces of lace that are sewn together at the centre of the front and back. My pair is perfectly symmetrical. The flowers in the lace are placed exactly in the same way on both sides. This is what I call attention to detail. When I ordered these knickers, I also ordered a second pair in purple and they are also perfectly symmetrical. This makes them ooze quality and value for money to me!

I am a size 6. I bought the size S/M which states that it will fit sizes from 8 to 10. However, I think that these boyshorts fit me very well. As you probably can guess, it is not a super tight fit, but it is tight enough for them to stay up and hug my body comfortably (and still look like the do on the model on this page). If you are a size 8 or 10, they will also fit you perfectly and comfortably because of the great stretch in the fabric. I personally like that they are a bit loose. It makes me forget that I am wearing them and it feels like I am naked, which I love to be. The boyshorts greatest asset is that they make your bum look gorgeous. The knickers frame my bum in a way that accentuates it and makes me feel like a million dollars.

Let us talk about the lace and I will get straight to business. It is the softest lace I have ever laid my hands on and you can probably guess how that feels against my bum and vagina. If you cannot guess, I will tell you right now, it feels amazing. It is like having a soft cloud as your knickers. They just feel lovely, even under a pair of jeans. In the crotch area there is an even softer fabric that feels great against my lady bits. This is truly a well thought-out item.

All in all, this is a wonderful pair of knickers. The lace is to die for and the build quality is superb. I wholeheartedly recommend these knickers to women of all sizes, they will both make you look great and feel great. I wish I owned a whole drawer full of boyshorts.

Like many ladies, I'm fussy about my pants. They have to be comfortable and fit well, but also not boring. When I saw these on Lovehoney I thought they looked like my perfect pants, and after reading the reviews I couldn't wait to try them for myself. Having worn these lovely blue ones all day, I can confirm that I was right, these really are perfect!

The lace is super soft and not at all scratchy, the shape is exactly what I look for, they don't give me a wedgie like other boyshorts I've tried, the colours (I bought them in purple and tangerine as well as blue) are bright and cheerful, I really couldn't ask for more. They're so comfy I keep forgetting I'm wearing them, but the lace and flattering cut mean I could definitely see myself wearing them in the bedroom too.

I'm a size 10-12 and I went with the M/L size to be safe - there's nothing worse than pants that dig in, but the material is so stretchy I think I probably would have been fine with the S/M too, so if you're between sizes like me it probably just comes down to personal preference.

These are definitely going to be my new everyday pants of choice, and I'm already tempted to buy all the other colours. Brilliant job, Lovehoney!
