With three weeks to go until V-Day, lingerie brands everywhere are releasing their versions of Valentine’s lingerie. Designs range from styles that are merely red or pink, to pieces more obviously themed. If you’re not that big on Valentine’s Day, it can seem a bit much. But whether you celebrate the day or not, if you…
Part of what fascinates me in writing about lingerie is why people buy the things they do. Why did velvet just take off this past season? Why has the strappy bra trend refused to die? Can we ever escape the all-encompassing reign of black mesh lingerie? Is what we buy dictated by lingerie trends? Whether…
What are you getting for the men in your life this holiday season? Women’s lingerie is the focus of my blog, but I can’t forget about the guys in my life. They also need practical and attractive boxers and briefs. That’s why I rounded up 12 men’s holiday underwear styles that any man in your…
I love the coziness of Winter. Iced teas get swapped for hot chocolate and the AC for a crackling fireplace. And in the lingerie world, stores focus less on the thin, silk pieces that abound in summer to make way for more luxurious, warmer fabrics like cashmere and velvet. Whatever the season, there’s something about…
Retailers with lingerie ranges don’t seem to get as much press as other lingerie brands. However, they are well-placed to create underthings that customers will love. Think about it—they have plenty of data on which styles, colors, sizes and price points sell best, which makes them ready to design the ‘perfect’ product. Below I’ve rounded…
I realize in some ways that writing an article about coats for curves probably feels a bit hypocritical, considering it’s still 85 degrees where I live. If you’re not lucky enough to live somewhere warm though, you’re probably checking out all those lovely coats online. Temperatures have dropped on the east coast and lots of…
A couple of months back Elisabeth wrote about the rise of high-neck bras and bralettes, and it’s a trend that’s permeating swimwear too. It’s not exactly a new concept—it’s been around for a while in the realm of sporty and surf-ready swimwear. Because who wants to be worrying about a nip slip when you’re riding the…
About 18 months ago I discovered the wonder that is a silk slip. And since working from home, I’ve doubled down on my new found luxury loungewear obsession. And what better time to share it with you than today, National Relaxation Day! Even if you’re limited to wearing it on weekends, a good loungewear piece is…
Where are all the hot older women in lingerie advertising? There are a few, but they are a rare find in a field of hard young bodies. When you age, you also get soft in some places—even if, like me, you work out with weights three times a week. And while “hot” may not be used…
The first time I ever went to Curve (back when dinosaurs roamed the earth) I remember a huge emphasis on sexy shapewear. Every brand seemed to be trying to transform shapewear into something fashionable and desirable, rather than some beige piece making you feel like an overstuffed sausage. While that movement appears to have gone…
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.
