Aahhh….. those chaps at Figleaves really do know the way to this affiliate’s heart. After some lovely sales figures recently from my new Lingerie site, Figleaves’ affiliate manager Simon felt it was time I got some nice gear for myself and sent me a giftcard!

As winter is fast upon us here in Queensland, I decided to get myself some nice affiliate Jim Jams. Seriously, they reported on the news here the other night that

“Temperatures will soon drop below 20 through they day. Remember, get rugged up and be prepared for the weather.”

I was struck by the thought that any temperature in the 20’s in my native Scotland brings out a rash of scantily clad people with pale, wobbly flesh. The next day, 60% of the country has third degree burns because our skin can’t take anything but clouds and drizzle!!

Anyhoo… mad Queenslanders aside, anyone who knows me in any way at all will know I have an unhealthy obsession with pyjamas and spend about 60% of my life wearing them. In fact I’m unashamed to announce that I’m sat here at 2pm writing this post - resplendent in a very fetching pink chemise and blue dressing gown *bliss*

Playing Customer Got Me More Than Some Free Gear…
As always for me, the opportunity to play customer has proved really useful. I don’t promote much sleepwear but today discovered Figleaves has some beautiful high end boudoir wear I should really think about promoting (particularly in light of honeymoon season coming up soon!!). I really should go shopping on my merchants sites more often…. every time I do this I come up with some little idea or angle to push some of their products in a hitherto overlooked niche.

I got myself…. this Pyjama set by Pour Moi plus a matching camisole. Unbelievably, I have actually been getting cold recently and this set looks lovely and warm, with the added advantage that it’s decent enough for me to answer the door in should I get caught out at 2pm still in my jim jams (happens all the time - horribly embarrassing!!)

Shameless Figleaves Plug (Which They Didn’t Ask Me To Do - I Just Like Them!)

The Figleaves.com affiliate programme is run by the gorgeous Simon Goldsmith and can be promoted via Tradedoubler or Linkshare. They pay 9% to 11% commission and in my opinion have the best range of lingerie, bras, and sleepwear in the UK. Their affiliate info page is here
