Do you feel like your hunt for the perfect bra is a perpetual one? Have you yet to find that spot-on, holy grail of fit? The truth is that buying off-the-rack bras is a hit and miss experience for everyone. Pre-made bras, by design, only fit average measurements. There’s more chance of you being between a…
As an awkward and prepubescent 12-year-old, I dreaded recess. It was the time when all the girls would pile into the bathroom to apply their glossy lip smacker and broadcast their beautifully bowed bras. Me, I had one of those handsome Fruit of The Loom tanks. UGH!!!! My mom and I had to talk! It…
The week between Christmas and New Year is my favorite time of year. It’s the perfect time to get ready for 2018 by throwing or giving away what no longer serves me. While that may include bad habits, it also applies to some much-loved lingerie. Maybe you’re like me, and hang on too long to some…
Do you try to buy a few trendy clothes or shoes every season? If so, how often do you update your bra wardrobe? Fall is here, even if where you live is still unseasonably warm (hello Los Angeles heat wave). Like me, you may need to replace some worn-out shoes, boots, or a coat from last…
Why is it so hard to find the perfect bra? For starters, no two bras are made or sized the same way. I wear multiple band/letter combinations in different brands and styles (my Bra Zone). Plus boobs are always changing. Maybe some bra styles fit you better during your menstrual cycle. Then again, those may…
Do your bras no longer fit after childbirth and breastfeeding? Nothing alters the body’s landscape more than having a baby. And as a result, you may be looking for the best post pregnancy bras for new, post-baby boobs. Contrary to popular belief, breastfeeding doesn’t cause the most common postpartum complaint: saggy boobs (known as ptosis). Plus, surveys…
Many lingerie brands make first bras for young girls, but Yellowberry takes a unique approach to designing and marketing their products. Megan Grassell started the company as a 17-year-old high school student. She’d been frustrated by the lack of first bra options available to her younger sister. So she decided to make a difference by…
Can we take a break from all the bra hate? I love bras. I love what they do for my body, clothes, and state of mind. But not one day goes by when I don’t read some random article on the horrors of bra wear. The basic premise of these pieces is that “we all…
Do you hate bra shopping? What about buying shoes? Many women can’t get enough variety when it comes to footwear. Surveys show women own up to 17 pairs of shoes, but only 9 different bras — half of which they don’t even wear. Foundations do just as much work for our bodies and breasts as shoes. So why don’t…
If you dread picking out or being fitted for new bras, try bra shopping with a couple of close girlfriends. It’s great to compare notes and share what you love or hate about certain bra styles, along with a few laughs and funny boob stories. At least that’s what happened to me this past weekend….
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.
