5 Reasons Why You’re Wearing the Wrong Size Bra

Byelisabeth February 3, 2014 1:41 pm

Women are always told that they are wearing the wrong size bra. It’s the constant refrain we hear from bra manufacturers, fitters, and stylists. Oprah tried to solve the problem a couple of times by televising mass bra fittings on her show. But not much has changed over the years. Just recently, lingerie giant Triumph…

The Color Red: When to Wear It

Byelisabeth January 29, 2014 10:57 am

I’m seeing the color red everywhere these days, except in my lingerie drawer. During awards season celebrities walk the “red carpet,” which is rolled out to signify their importance. For Valentine’s Day the color symbolizes passion and love. In the upcoming Chinese New Year holiday, red represents good luck and prosperity. It’s a power color….

Single on Valentine’s Day? Show Some Love

Byelisabeth January 27, 2014 8:59 am

It can feel awkward to be single on Valentine’s Day. All the ads focus on cute, kissing couples. Gift giving is reserved for those defined as “in a relationship.” It’s easy to feel left out, dwell on past relationships, or focus on future fantasies of true love. But it doesn’t have to be that way….

Bra Shopping More Fun With Friends

Byelisabeth January 20, 2014 8:23 am

If you dread picking out or being fitted for new bras, try bra shopping with a couple of close girlfriends. It’s great to compare notes and share what you love or hate about certain bra styles, along with a few laughs and funny boob stories. At least that’s what happened to me this past weekend….

Bright Bra Hues to Beat Winter Blues

Byelisabeth January 15, 2014 9:11 am

How to beat winter blues when freezing temperatures have you bundled up or locked indoors? You could start with changing up the color of your lingerie. Record breaking cold weather forces us to stay warm by wearing layers of clothing: from thermal undies, woolen socks, and bulky sweaters, to thick parkas and heavy coats. But…

Five Signs It’s Time to Throw Away Old Bras

Byelisabeth January 13, 2014 3:11 pm

I hate having to throw away old bras. I’m not even sure why it’s so hard. I know they don’t last forever. Yet many feel like good friends, and it’s tough to let go of these formerly supportive relationships. Sometimes I remember where I bought a particular bra, in what city or store, who I…

Advice for Guys Who Wear Bras

Byelisabeth January 8, 2014 8:19 am

Guys who wear bras generally do so for one of two reasons. Some simply enjoy wearing women’s lingerie. But another group, whose numbers may be increasing, must wear bras to support their swelling breast tissue. Gynecomastia (the medical term for male breast development) reportedly occurs in 15% of all adult men. It has been linked…

Nudwear Backless Strapless Gel Bra Review

Byelisabeth January 6, 2014 8:58 am

An adhesive backless strapless gel bra is a great fashion solution for mostly smaller busted women. I’ve never been able to wear them because they don’t seem to hold up my D+ heavier breasts. I’m a bit envious of those who can fit into these bra styles. They work well under regular clothing or breezy…

Byelisabeth January 1, 2014 5:50 pm

Many women are reluctant to buy their lingerie online. They’re afraid a bra might not fit, be delivered in the wrong size, or be a hassle to return. But nothing could be further from the truth. Buying bras, panties, shapewear, and even swimwear online can be more convenient and less of a time and money…
