Mother’s Day is the perfect time to say thank you to your mom for being genuinely incredible. And while we all appreciate a bunch of flowers now and then, there is a whole world of different and often more exciting gifts out there. As a mom of three, I often put myself last. And because…
I am one of those people who honestly find it hard to get excited about bridal lingerie. After all, so much of it looks the same and treads the same ground season after season. Classics are great, but so much stuff aimed at the bridal market is either tacky or un-creative. When I went to…
Mastectomy bras are a topic that has been covered a few times on The Breast Life. It’s a niche but (finally) growing area of the lingerie market. Even luxury brands are beginning to realize that not all women have two full breasts. Mastectomy swimwear, however, still lags behind. It’s not that it’s hard to find;…
Inclusive fashion is a trending topic at the moment. It’s also a touchy subject. While the fashion industry is offering more and more options to plus-size people, featuring more people of colors in their campaigns, there is still much to do. Inclusivity means different things to different people. Origami Customs, a small lingerie brand based…
Summer after summer I struggled to find swimwear that would fit my large bust but also look super cute, too. Throw in the added complication of being plus size, and I often felt I had no other option than to squeeze into a wetsuit and be done with it. Things have now, thankfully, changed and…

I have a beach-filled trip coming up soon, so my thoughts have turned to swimwear. Usually, I’m not bothered about whether my swim looks are in fashion or not. But I am loving the trends this year! Some of last year’s swimwear trends are still going strong. However, there are plenty of new ones to…
A few weeks ago, Elisabeth sent this article from The Curvy Fashionista with a simple question attached: “What do you think about this?” If you’re not up on the latest plus-size marketing debates, the article covers the founder of Universal Standard arguing that the plus-size term is dead. And that body positivity and size access…
Festival season is kicking off, with Coachella only weeks away. And although we’re going for the music, getting dressed up is half the fun. As many eyes are checking out outfits as there are looking towards the stage! Lingerie-as-outerwear continues to be a major trend. And it’s especially perfect for these (hopefully) sunny outdoor events….
First, it was decorative backs and high necklines; now it’s longer bands. Brands are pushing the boundaries of bra design by experimenting with different ways to add more fabric. After all, the bigger the canvas, the more space you have to get creative. Longline bras are not a new invention, but they are a growing…
