Have you heard? Pajama dressing is a buzzing trend! No, I’m not talking about rolling up at the supermarket still in your dressing gown. I mean pajama sets that are so chic, it would almost be a crime to not show them off in public. Pajamas can work for both daytime and fancy events. The…
Intrigued by nipplets, also known as nipple pasties or covers? This often-overlooked lingerie accessory is perfect for all sorts of special occasions. From boudoir photo shoots to burlesque performances, they preserve your modesty and look fabulous doing it. I’m not talking about those basic, skin-toned stickers designed to smooth and hide your nipples beneath clothing….
As a lingerie addict, I feel like my pregnancy was a missed opportunity to delve into the world of maternity underwear. At the time, I wasn’t impressed by what any of the major brands in this niche had to offer. I ended up just wearing my regular bras for my pregnancy. Then rotating between two…
Love them or hate them, there’s no denying that the bullet bra is a lingerie icon. They’re usually associated with the 1950s. Well, that and 1990s Madonna. The style originated in the 1940s however, with Maidenform’s Chansonette bra. What is a bullet bra? We’re used to seeing bra seams go horizontally, vertically, or sometimes diagonally. The…
I recently shared a list of online stores selling bra-making supplies in the US and Canada. Today’s follow-up is for our European readers and lingerie sewing enthusiasts, with retailers a little closer to home. As before, this list doesn’t include fabric shops (although some stores listed do sell them). Fabrics are easy to find elsewhere….
Have you ever considered sewing your own lingerie? Making bras, especially wired ones, isn’t easy. It’s time-consuming, fiddly and not necessarily a cheaper alternative to buying a pre-made bra. When you factor in fabric minimums for example (most are sold by the meter, even though you’ll need much less for a bra), you may well…
April 7th is National Handmade Day. It’s a day to celebrate and recognize all the unique talent out there in the world. What better time to treat yourself to some handmade lingerie? Handmade lingerie is often far more exciting and unique than anything you’ll find in a department store. But it’s not just about fashion—it’s the…
It’s springtime, and the flowers are blooming! It’s this sunnier new season, rather than the beginning of the year, that makes me want to declutter and revamp my lingerie wardrobe. The skies are brighter, and the air feels fresher. It’s also (obviously) the perfect time for a spot of lingerie-drawer spring cleaning. And there’s no…
I recently shared a list of 10 of the best Polish lingerie brands. In it, I talked about why brands from this country typically offer an extensive size range. One much more extensive than we’re used to seeing from brands elsewhere in Europe, or in the US. I’m not just talking about cup sizes either,…
I moved recently and finally have the floor space to start the home yoga sessions I’d planned to begin this year. Just one problem—I have nothing suitable to wear. So I got to researching workout gear, and that led to a hunt for the perfect sports bra. The trouble is, I don’t particularly like sportswear….
