Forget M&S, THIS is where you need to shop for underwear for that special occasion. Not many…read morecompanies do lingerie quite like Agent Provocateur, and arguably you could say few get the same results either :). Their stuff is on the pricey side, but you could say I know from experience that it's well worth the price. There's nothing quite as nice as wearing their underwear on just a normal Monday for work! So I say there's no need to shop for underwear in the same place as your nan, when there's places as nice as this to go to!

I'm not a regular of these kind of establishments, but worth a mention all the same, for those of…read moreyou that are. Based in Digbeth along the high street, it does exactly what it says on the tin. A small, adults only sex and fetish shop. They sell the typical gear that you would expect from these outlets. DVDs, magazines, videos, toys, kinky clothing to fetish wear and accessories. They advertise that they are also The Book Exchange club, but I didn't see any books in here. It's a friendly store, however you can only purchase in store as they do not have a website, are not on Facebook or Twitter, and do not sell Gift vouchers. Opening hours are 10am-8.30pm Monday-Friday, and 11am-4pm on Sundays. Surely there must be better outlets for this kind of stuff, this was a bit bland and boring, didn't get my juices going.....

The service in the store is very helpful and friendly.

I walked past here the other day as I was trying to find a pub at the top of the road. As I was…read moreearly and it had started to rain, I decided to pop in and take cover. I must have been past this shop a number of times without even realising it was there. The outside window display had 2 mannequins in, each of which were extremely scary! They had on pretty cheap looking outfits that were meant to be sexy but instead they looked quite old. Inside wasn't much better. It had a typical warehouse feel which had been stocked full of adult shop items. If you know what you're looking for you could probably find it with ease but if you just fancied a browse perhaps a smaller shop would be better.

Going into Angels and Sinners was the first time I went into an adult shop and for some reason I…read morewas nervous. It does sound embarrassing and stupid but that's how I honestly felt. This store is for over 18's and because I look like a 16/17 year-old I did get asked how old I was which again was embarrassing. You might want to take some ID with you to prove your age. But what I will say is the staff made me feel welcome and they do have excellent customer skills and service. If you are looking for sexy lingerie, fancy dress costumes or clothing for hen/stag nights, you might want to consider coming here. I did find both the male and female fancy dresses to be on the expensive side but I guess that is not a surprise. But I know for a fact that some of my male friends would come here if they were looking for fancy dress costumes. Will I come here again? Only time will tell.

If you're approaching the Hurst Street 'gay village' from the Hippodrome and Arcadian then CZ (aka…read moreClone Zone) is probably the first indication that you're not in Kansas anymore. Located close to the Dragon Inn Wetherspoons, this adult shop is aimed at the gays - as signified by a shopfront that features images of various muscled blokes promoting their bulges in colourful underwear. Be prepared to answer some awkward questions if walking past with a child in tow... Upon entering, it soon becomes clear that this shop is aimed at two sub-sections of gay men. The first is the fashion-conscious guy who likes to sport the latest AussieBums or other horrendously overpriced branded underwear. Indeed, the metrosexual man may also want to shop some of the store's flash undercrackers if not put off by the out-there storefront. The second subset of gents likely to visit CZ are ones who are quite clearly kinky devils. Various sex toys, aids and gear (bottomless wrestling onesies, anyone?) are available - whatever floats your boat! I can't say I've ever made a purchase here, but I'm sure this does the job nicely for those in the market for some non-Primark pants or a rubber interpretation of a porn star's veiny phallus.

Clonezone is a nice, yet overpriced gay mans wardrobe and underwear accessory shop (for the want of…read morea better word). Inside it's quite small, and you do feel your being watched even if your just browsing and taking an interest in what they sell. They do have a large selection of underwear in all the latest new fashions and colours, swimwear, vests and tshirts, thongs, sex toys, condoms, books, calendars, DVDs, keyrings, magazines, cards and gifts. I found the items were overpriced compared to what you'd pay for similar pants in other leading shops in the Bullring for example. I did buy a cheeky and rude Birthday card for a friend, who doesn't mind hunks in trunks on the cover! I've found they also keep their stock upto date and seasonal, so new fresh clothing, accessories and garments are great, just don't think you'll get it cheap or at a bargain.

Great store. They had most size options available and staff were friendly…read more It was a bit cramped walking around which made it a harder to browse so maybe the store layout could be better. Their prices are always good if you keep an eye on their sales. I once bought a bunch of items that ALL went into the sale and find it quite common that happens so definitely keep an eye on their sales. I love how soft their pjs are too! They also make cute Christmas socks that are great for stocking fillers.

Bright colours, a trendy feel, good displays, and they even have a video playing in the shop window & at the back of the store! I chose not to try their free bra fitting service! But some of you may feel obliged... A very modern and unique addition to Birmingham, your girlfriend will love it in here! Best take a few extra quid..

Now when I was a little girl I always used to love the thought of bedtime because I would get ready…read morefor bed, my mom or dad would come and tuck me in and then read me a bedtime story (personally I would hope for my mom as she would do all of the characters whereas my dad used the same voice throughout). My family were not the richest family but my mom would always make sure my nightwear was of a good quality so I would get a good sleep. I think this is where my love of nightwear has come from so this is one of the main reasons why I decide to shop in La Senza. Of course La Senza is also known for its fantastic lingerie and in this review I will try to explain to you why I cannot walk past this store without going in and usually buying something. - The shop itself; Now when you see a La Senza store they usually look very airy and inviting. The sign will be in very large writing which has a very funky font. Usually you will see a splash of a very mellow yellow colour as many of the La Senza stores by me have their sign in silver writing and then the background is yellow. La Senza stores are always pristine looking and very clean. The window displays are always of the highest quality and feature new and fashionable items that are sold within the store. In sale periods the window displays will change to some of the best sale items you can buy. As I said before the stores always look very airy and in the stores by me there is plenty of room for wheelchair and pushchair access. Atmosphere in the stores is very relaxed and you won't get loud music playing in the stores as they play music at a very low level so you can just about hear it. In one of the stores near me they play the radio which is a nice change. As you walk into the store you will be able to see the entire shop which means you will be able to immediately locate what item you are after and where to find it. In the main store that I go to which is located in the Bullring in Birmingham, immediately when you walk in you are surrounded by nightwear. The lingerie is located on the side walls so that it can be hung up properly whereas the main shop floor is taken up with the bigger clothes so the pyjamas and nighties and dressing gowns are located here and can be easily seen. With the lingerie on the walls it also means it is easy to see and identify the different designs. Clothes are also kept in styles so when you see something you like, all sizes will be kept there so you can see if they have yours in stock. Any special offers there may be will be easily identifiable by labels located by the selection it refers to. There will usually be fitting rooms towards the back of the shop which will be clearly labelled and there will usually be an assistant there to help so if you do need another size then you can just ask them to go and fetch one for you. There will be one main sales desk to the store where you can pay for your items and also return them. There is usually two people manning this till and they work pretty quickly. The tills are always immaculate with small items on offer to buy such as little bags with beads in to make your drawers smell nice. - The clothes; First let's start with the lingerie. Absolutely fantastic! There are styles here to suit everybody so if you are after everyday, t-shirt, sporty, cute, sexy or wow factors then you will probably find something to suit. The bras first. They come in sizes from 30AA and go up to 38FF so the majority of people should be able to get the right size for them. In most La Senza stores there will be a bra measuring service so you can get the exact right size. The majority of bras (except for children and sporty bras) will be under wired so gives us women some support. The quality of the material used is fantastic and you can buy just normal bras or they do sell padded ones too or silky or cotton so again giving you a good choice. A bra will usually cost you in the region of £10 25 but trust me you get what you pay for as they last a hell of a long time. The knickers. Again fantastic range and you can choose anything from thongs to those little cute short knickers that are all in fashion now. The knickers will come in sizes so by 8, 10, 12 etc or you may have to choose from small, medium or large. The selection is fantastic and usually you will be able to get the matching briefs to a bra you have chosen. Now to my favourite La Senza items, the nightwear. Now you can buy nightwear for all occasions from here and it is all really cute and of a great quality. You can usually find something for every occasion so short pyjama sets for when you are warm, trouser pyjama sets for when you are cold, nighties for when you are feeling ill and you do not want anything to cling to you and sexy pyjamas and slips for when you are in a sexy mood. The pyjama sets are usually the first thing you see when you walk into a store and they have a range of different colours
