My Honest 3 Wishes Review: Halloween Costumes + Sexy Lingerie

October 27, 2020 by loxandleather No Comments
3wishes-review-blog

In need of a sexy costume for last minute Halloweekend plans? Or just want to read a 3 Wishes review? I’ve got you covered with costume inspo and all you wanna know about shopping on 3wishes.com.

3 Wishes is a lingerie site that specializes in tons of fun costume offerings. They’ve been in the biz for over 20 years and are based in Arizona. They also offer shoes, accessories, and some beauty items (like lashes), plus they have an entire plus-sized section.

I selected three costumes from their site (it was hard to narrow my selection down because there were so many good options), and I give my honest review on all of them below, as well as my honest thoughts on the entire experience shopping with them.

What I Bought:

Beauty Ringmaster Costume, $89.95

There were a few cute ringmaster costumes that struck my fancy (I also really liked this one). At first try-on, I though the sequined bodice and epaulets were a bit much, but when I got into full costume I felt like they were just enough. To be honest, I didn’t look closely enough online and I originally didn’t expect the sequins (I thought it would be shiny PVC-ish fabric all over). This costume doesn’t come with a whip (I bought my own on Amazon here), but it does come with the hat! I paired it with fishnets and OTK boots. The neckline is easily adjustable to cover as much (or as little) as you need, and the back isn’t too cheeky so it keeps things relatively covered. You could also wear dark tights if you wanna show less skin.

The Punishing One Costume, $64.00

While I used to be a big superhero fan as a kid, I was more of a DC girl than a Marvel girl, so tbh I don’t really know much about the Punisher. But I do know that my ex had a Punisher tank top that I loved (I just like skulls), and I also love a good leg harness, so this costume stuck out to me. I like that it’s long-sleeved (for cooler October weather) and covered-up on the torso area to balance out the more cheeky bottom and leg harness action. I also had to buy some white PVC boots to copy the model’s look (snag them on Amazon here). I got this costume in a small, and if it came in an extra small I probably would have preferred that just so it would be tighter on the arms and chest area. I actually used safety pins to make the straps around the arms tighter, which was pretty easy. You definitely don’t need a wig for this costume, but I had this one from last year’s Cruella costume that I bought on Amazon, so I figured why not? I also bought these fun bejeweled fishnets on Amazon.

Masked Bandita Costume (Sold Out)

Fun fact about me: I was obsessed with Zorro as a child (or maybe just Antonio Banderas). I used to dress up as Zorro and run around the house. Not even on Halloween, just on a Saturday when I wasn’t in pre-school or whatever. So, when I saw this sexy Zorro costume, I knew I had to have it (even if solely for the side-by-side comparison photos). This costume actually came in an XS, and it was definitely very small up top and on bottom (it was dangerously short). The website said it came with a hat, sword, and mask, but because they were low on inventory they didn’t have any swords left. Sad. Regardless, I still kind of loved this costume, but I didn’t love how I looked in the mask so I left that out. Guess I’m just a regular non-masked bandita?

The Good:

  • 3 Wishes has a huge selection of sexy Halloween costumes and some that are totally reasonable for your office Halloween party (even if it’s via Zoom)
  • Shipping was super quick. I am in CA, so that might have helped, but still!
  • All costumes seemed to fit me pretty well. I was a bit worried that size S would be too big/not sexy enough on me, but I didn’t run into that issue.
  • They are offering FREE shipping on all orders over $50, which is most costumes. Plus, discreet shipping in case you don’t want your mom to know that you just spent your allowance on a sexy Beetlejuice costume.
  • I tend to dislike pre-packaged Halloween costumes, but I found that all the ones I got from here were pretty nice and came with a good bit of accessories for the price!

The Bad:

  • They only offer exchanges/store credit, no returns.
  • It doesn’t seem like they offer a lot of items in XS, although like I mentioned above, that didn’t seem to be a big issue for me (it usually is with other brands).

The Good to Know:

  • Use code: “10OFF” to save 10% on your entire order.

I hope this 3 Wishes review was helpful to you! Feel free to let me know any questions you may have in the comments section!:

How To Wear Lingerie Out of The House Without Feeling Like an Idiot

April 26, 2018 by loxandleather 2 Comments

Wondering how to wear lingerie out of the house without feeling like an idiot? I’ve got you covered with tips, tricks, and some cute pieces that will totally work with your regular wardrobe.

How To Wear Lingerie Out of The House Without Feeling Like an Idiot

1. Pair It With Heavy Pieces

At first thought, you might want to pair your pretty lacy teddy with a mesh robe, some delicate sandals, or some silky pants. While that wouldn’t be a bad look by any means, it’ll definitely amp up the “I just walked out of my sugar daddy’s bedroom” factor, which might not be what you’re going for!

Instead, pair your lingerie piece of choice with something “heavy” — a.k.a chunky boots, thick fabrics (think leather, denim, wool), and pieces with lots of hardware. It’ll bridge the gap and make your delicate lingerie more street-style appropriate.

2. Add Something Distressed

Another good fashion juxtaposition to your pretty lil’ lingerie is something that looks like it was stolen from the dumpster.

Okay, maybe that’s extreme, but you get what I’m saying. A distressed denim jacket, a frayed jean skirt, maybe even one of those ridiculous “vintage” tees cropped up to your neck — the options are endless!

3. Do Not Wear a Bra, For the Love of God

If you wear a Victoria’s Secret push up bra under your lace bralette, everyone is going to think you’re 17 and trying to get into DayGlow.

C’mon, one of the most awesome things about style right now is that boobs of all shapes and sizes are encouraged to fly free! Don’t ruin pretty lingerie with a painful underwire contraption underneath. If you really feel like your ladies need a lift (and I’m sure they don’t), try some discreet sticky boobs.

4. Own It!

Okay, let’s be real, the biggest concern we all have when thinking about how to wear lingerie out of the house is: are people going to think I’m a thot?

The second concern we may have is: am I going to get harassed by random men on the street more than normal?

Both are very valid concerns, but they both go back to owning your look and adopting a DGAF attitude. If you walk down the street looking confident and your face says “don’t fuck with me,” chances are, people won’t (aside from maybe that one dude who’ll tell you to smile).

People always come up to me and say stuff like, “OMG, I love your outfit! I could never pull that off!” And while I appreciate the compliment, it’s not true! The only reason I can pull it off is because I decided I could! And that’s a decision only you can make for yourself!

Anyway, I’m going to hop off my soapbox and tell you where to get this bodysuit and other cute ones to rock this summer…

Here’s a link to the bodysuit I’m wearing, by EG Lux.

And here are some other hot af lingerie pieces that you could totally purchase with the sole purpose of wearing out:

1. Can’t Trust Me Lace Bodysuit, $45, Dolls Kill

This is one of those pieces that will actually probably look better on someone with smaller boobies, so please go get this on my behalf!

BUY IT HERE 

2. Sex Therapy Bralette, $28, Dolls Kill

For obvious reasons, this is on my wishlist. It would look great under a black mesh bodysuit or with a black denim skirt + jean jacket combo.

BUY IT HERE

3. Black Mesh Pineapple Bodysuit, Missguided, $34

If you’re obsessed with red and hearts like me, I recommend this version, but I feel like for most of you, the black, fruity version is more wearable. The pineapples make it more “fun” than “bedroom-y,” if you feel me? If you’re hesitant on how to wear lingerie out, this could be a good starter piece.

BUY IT HERE

4. Gagaopt Sexy Lace Bodysuit, $13.99, Amazon

I’ll never knock some quality Amazon lingerie, and this piece’s ratings are stellar. Look at the model even taking my distressed tip to heart <3

BUY IT HERE

5. Stunner Net and Lace Teddy, Yandy, $30Stunner Net and Lace Teddy

Alright so I have an extremely similar bodysuit from Yandy in both black and red because I loved it so much. I wear both all the time (the black one legit goes with everything), and Yandy’s shipping is so fast! If you’re going to buy just one lacy bodysuit, I’d recommend this one.

BUY IT HERE
