Like many little girls, I dreamed of one day becoming a princess (and a mermaid, but that’s for another blog post). I may have grown out of that stage, but my adoration for all things pretty and pink hasn’t faded. One of the reasons that I love lingerie is that it allows us to play…
We’ve included NK iMODE luxury lingerie in a more than one blog post on The Breast Life. Their gorgeous silk and lace styles are perfect for the full bust woman. But I was curious to learn more about this Canadian brand. The first thing I wanted to know about NK iMODE was the meaning of their name….
After a mastectomy, even if you have breast reconstruction, your bra needs will likely be very different from what you wore before your surgery. Wearing a bra after breast reconstruction is optional, whether you have new breasts made with implants, your own tissue, or both; your new “girls” will likely be higher and firmer than…
I recently rounded up 20 red velvet lingerie looks for the holiday season. So naturally, I had to follow-up with that other Yuletide color favorite—dark green lingerie! I think this one is my preferred color for this time of year. Unlike red, which is a typical lingerie color, green is comparatively rare. For me, that…
As promised, I’m back with part 2 of my series on honeymoon lingerie. This time I’m focusing on garments and sets that range from only slightly over $60 (for low-cost looks that will set you back even less, check out part 1 here), through to just under $120. It’s these mid-tier pieces where you’ll often…
The latest lingerie trend to hit stores takes bras in the opposite direction of those worn to show off a plunging neckline. It’s the rise (yikes) of high neck bras and bralettes. It could be these high or halter necks are just an extension of the bralette trend. Like many unstructured foundations, they won’t work…
One claim often made by emerging intimate apparel brands is the need to “reinvent bras.” For example, here’s a recent quote from a Kickstarter campaign for an ingenious strapless bra: Despite the many technological, engineering and manufacturing developments made during the past century – consider, for example, the development of walking boots, rain jackets or even…
It’s that time of year when traffic backs up along southern California highways because everyone is heading to a music festival. To be honest, it’s always bad, but way worse if you’re going anywhere near Indio. But what would a lingerie and breast health blog have to do with, say, Coachella? And many intimate apparel companies are…
Like me, you might have had a bra fitter tell you that your breasts are “shallow.” It’s common to hear this word when you’re in the fitting room trying on a gazillion bras in an attempt to find the one that fits and looks best. What does it mean to have shallow breasts? For me, having…
Anyone reading the news right now might find it a bit depressing and less than uplifting. That’s why I’m highlighting a few basic, but pretty lingerie sets on the blog today. It’s because nothing cheers me more than finding one of my favorite intimate apparel brands in a new bra color or style. Plus, these bright…
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.
