Over the past year, we’ve seen one body positive headline after another. The most notable was a viral photoshoot with Lena Dunham and Jemima Kirke for Lonely Lingerie. It showcased the two stars in a series of un-photoshopped images. Another from the new Curvy Kate Scantilly line featured a group of non-traditional models, from women…
As I get older, Valentine’s Day is more about what I do for myself and less about what I expect from others. Yeah, I might go out to dinner. But I’m more likely to splurge on lingerie that I adore rather than lingerie that is designed to impress someone else. However, I’ve never been one…
One of my favorite features of the holiday season is my ability to pull out dresses that seem totally inappropriate during the rest of the year. I love bright and bold clothing that seems eminently suited to holiday events: sequins, velvet and all sorts of dramatic flourishes. If there’s a theme to this post, it’s…
Even when I’m tired of bras, I always manage to fall back in love with lingerie right in time for the winter holidays. It’s easy to dress bigger and bolder for the season, but not as many of us take that “look at me” attitude and apply it to our lingerie drawers. That’s why I…
A few weeks ago, I found myself in a fashion dilemma. I wanted to update my wardrobe with two basic on trend items: a classy black faux leather dress and a colorful faux leather moto style jacket to wear over everything in case autumn weather ever actually hits New Orleans. Since I mostly wear vintage…
It’s been a rough 2016, y’all. Between the election, local, national disasters and a depressing 24/7 news cycle, I feel like we’re all just exhausted and depressed. I’ve been increasingly grateful this year that I do get to work in the lingerie industry, which means I get to immerse myself in light and fluffy things…
There’s a lot of talk about body positive ad campaigns these days, as the idea of being “body positive” has become a major selling point for many lingerie and clothing companies. Unfortunately, we tend to see this in the context of the failed “Perfect Body” campaign by Victoria’s Secret or the #AerieREAL campaign. Both are…
I stopped doing formal lingerie trade show coverage a few years ago for reasons that aren’t exactly a secret: much of the stock at shows like Curve looks pretty much the same. Lingerie trends have become less exciting over the past few years, and color palettes have evolved to focus on nothing but the most…
When people find out that I write about lingerie full time, I tend to get a mix of reactions. “Oh, that must be so great!” says some women, as they ooze with envy and picture me lounging around with my laptop in silk dressing gowns. “Ugh!” say some people, as they try and imagine my…
As lingerie lovers and appreciators, we spend an incredible amount of time not talking about our personal lingerie collections. With lingerie blogging becoming more like fashion blogging, more and more lingerie blogger reviews are driven by samples and affiliate sales rather than by a personal love of lingerie. As a reviewer, I constantly feel the…
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.
