Beautiful push-up bras are a great addition to any bra wardrobe. But they’re not just about adding breast size. The best ones are about perfecting boob placement. Even when mine first sprouted, they never resembled the muffin-top mounds seen in glossy fashion magazines or on lingerie models. It isn’t nature’s way for all breasts to…
Sleepwear may not be high on your list of holiday gifts for new moms. But it should be. Most new mothers don’t get much rest in those first few weeks or months after baby is born. I was so exhausted I could hardly find time to take a shower, much less change out of my…
Writing a blog post about the best strapless bras for D+ busts might sound as hard as trying to defy breast flesh gravity without the help of bra straps. But lingerie experts know it’s the band that does the heavy lifting. And with so many strapless fashions to wear, from summer-time tops to holiday cocktail…
Finding a way to wear matching bras and panties every day can be a challenge. I start out with the best of intentions. After hooking up, I search for bottoms to go with my top. Sometimes I succeed, other days…not so much. This could be the reason why nearly 60% of women surveyed said they…
Ever thought about the science behind intimate apparel trends? I didn’t until I was invited to attend A Comprehensive Taste of Interfilière Paris event in New York, earlier this month.* There I got a preview of some high-tech raw materials — before they’re styled, sewn, and eventually sold as fashionable bras, swimwear, and shapewear. And I…
My mother is dying. She’s 94, has congestive heart failure, and is under hospice care. Back in January, my sister moved our mother from the Pacific Northwest to Los Angeles. It hasn’t been easy watching her slow and steady decline over the past few months. But the greater burden has been carried by my sister…
Women complain to me that there are few styles to choose from beyond a certain alphabet cup. Yet there’s never a shortage of deep cup bras and full bust lingerie brands on display at lingerie trade shows. This year’s CURVExpo Designer Lingerie event was no exception. I visited three new (to me) brands that you…
Lingerie is timeless, right? That’s not always evident when I’m shopping for intimate apparel. Racks of push ups, molded cups, and skimpy thongs target the tighter skinned 20 to 30-year-old woman. These styles don’t appeal to me. As my shape shifts with age, so does my definition of what I find attractive, sensual, and alluring….
Finding the best bras for small busts might not seem like much of a challenge. Those who wear bigger cups often envy petite women who can go bra-less. But just because one can, doesn’t always mean one wants to go without a bra. Women enjoy wearing feminine lingerie whatever their body and breast size. What…
If you’re pregnant, you have to add maternity and nursing bras to your get-ready-for-baby shopping list. But it’s not just changing cup sizes that you need to keep in mind, even though your boobs double or triple in size. You also need to ask yourself some practical questions. Will you be taking baby and stroller…
Until she wrote a book on the subject, Elisabeth Dale didn’t know much about her breasts. She created this site so that readers can find the best products, clothing and surgical options—anything and everything related to bras, breast health, and well-being.
