Note: This lingerie was purchased with my own money. All opinions are my own. I first discovered La Fille d’O way back in 2012 at the Salon de la Lingerie tradeshow.

Dbleudazzled is the brain-child of former professional dancer, Destiny Bleu, who says she aims to “bridge the stage to the street.” Her pieces are not only a favorite of Beyonce. The brand’s ‘As […]
