I’m having a hard time articulating my thoughts about the Lonely Lingerie campaign featuring 56-year-old model, Mercy Brewer. No one wants the intimate apparel industry to pay more attention to older women more than this 60-year-old lingerie lover. I’ve written about these frustrations and even stripped down for a lingerie photoshoot last year to underscore…
On the heels of International Women’s Day and #DayWithoutAWoman, I want to give a shout out to the much-maligned bra. Contrary to popular belief, women in the United States didn’t burn their bras at any public protest or demonstration. We’ve come a long way since the invention of the first modern bra, too. Back in those days, we…
In keeping my promise to change things up on the blog this year, today’s post is an homage to the poetry of breasts. What, you’re probably thinking, is boob Haiku? If you’re not familiar with this poetry genre, here’s a quick refresher. My inspiration for this post came from attending a recent writing retreat in…
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…
I didn’t want to go to the Women’s March in Los Angeles on Saturday. It was tough getting there, given the number of people trying to take public transportation at the same time. I didn’t hear any of the speeches because the PA system was too small. And I didn’t make it all the way…
It’s a new year and the right time to make some long overdue changes to The Breast Life. Brands, much like people, must grow and evolve. So what’s in store for this new Breast Life? It aligns with my personal goals. I’m a writer. That’s who I am. I write blogs, books, plays, and stand-up…
It’s the end of the year and time for reflection. And it’s easiest to measure my life by gains and losses—whether in my personal or professional life. There are a few ways to measure professional success. It can be about staying on budget or cutting losses and increasing gains. Like watching traffic to my website increase…
Since I’m involved in the lingerie industry, it’s not unusual for me to find images of adult-oriented sexy Santa costumes in my inbox this time of year. I understand the urge to dress in bright holiday red, green, or even faux-elf gear during the season. It helps to get into the Christmas spirit. Maybe a…
Dear E, Surprised to hear from your 60-year-old self? After several decades of boob ownership, I thought it might be useful to share some advice about breasts. We have them in common, but I don’t feel the same way about them as I did at your age. Bras aren’t everything. You can’t measure your breast self-worth…
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…
