S’No Queen Thermals: Review and Giveaway

I’m a real winter baby and love getting outside in the colder months. But if there’s one thing I’ve learnt, it’s that if you want to spend time outdoors in the winter, you really need to invest in some proper cold weather gear. Over the years I’ve tried many thermals, but I’m always open to trying something new.

So when S’No Queen, “the home of fashionable designer ladies thermal underwear” got in touch to see if I wanted to try some of their exclusive limited edition thermals, I was keen to put them to use. I received a set comprising a long sleeved top, vest and leggings in a gorgeous turquoise colour.  I’m a size 12 so went for a medium and they fit perfectly.

Not only was I excited to try out some thermals that are so exclusive they’re not even available to buy,  I also really wanted to see if these ultra stylish baselayers were able to perform as well as my, um, less fashionable thermals.

Style and Practicality

I haven’t been able to test in super cold weather yet, but I have been wearing them a lot. Mainly because I’m interested in trying them out, but also because they’re so comfy! To be honest, up until now I’ve actually got too hot wearing them, hopefully we’ll be hit with an arctic blast soon and I can wear them for their intended purpose!

Oh, and if you’re wondering, you won’t find any full length shots of me in this post. As comfortable as I am in my own skin, the internet just isn’t ready for my mum tum clad in skin tight thermals!

Straight away I loved the look and feel of my thermals, originally designed for skiing, I can see why there is a market for more stylish under layers. But it’s not all about style, practicality is important too.

I’m not usually the glitzy sort, but I do really like the detail, if nothing else, it means that as well as wearing as a baselayer, I can also wear around the house or as pyjamas. I lived in Spain for a while, and the Spanish know how to do loungewear. In fact, while I lived there I had clothes just for the lazy siesta hours, so I’m right on board with this concept.

There is 15% silk in these  and it makes a difference. Not only does silk have natural thermal properties, but it also makes this a super comfortable outfit. I like the fact that they are breathable and also feel really soft against my skin. The addition of lycra helps with the fit and also makes sure they keep their shape after washing (boring but important detail). I have washed them once, and so far so good.

As well as being perfect for skiing, these thermals will be ideal for autumn and winter camping and glamping breaks. I will probably also wear the vest when we go walking, but I think I’d get too hot in the full base layer.
