    Writing About Lingerie Doesn’t Mean I Want to Hear Your Sexual Fantasies

    Byelisabeth April 6, 2017 8:43 am

    Today I’m addressing something many lingerie bloggers face every day: unwanted and unsolicited sexual messages from male readers. For some reason, complete strangers think that—just because a woman wears, writes about, or reviews lingerie—she has an interest in hearing about someone’s sexual fantasies. Usually, it’s not an issue for me. One of the great perks…

    Want Bigger Breasts or Cleavage? Double Scoop Review

    Byelisabeth March 18, 2015 11:30 am

    Sometimes boobs need a little boost. It’s about fashion and personal preference. You may have a plunging summer top or sexy swimsuit in need of cleavage, or a special occasion dress that could use some lift. It’s not a matter of simply adding inches. I needed to prop up my breasts after multiple pregnancies left them with less volume….

    Byelisabeth December 29, 2014 5:20 pm

    There was plenty of boob news that could have made this list of 2014 best and worst breast news stories. Many hit on issues from past years; like public breastfeeding, celebrity cleavage, or pink ribbon campaigns. But a few stories stuck out for me, thanks to their stupidity or smart thinking. Most of my picks for “worst” breast…

    Byelisabeth March 13, 2014 8:46 am

    I was introduced to Ysé Lingerie while writing a series for The Lingerie Journal about the small bust lingerie market. Ysé is focused on meeting the needs of an often over-looked and misunderstood segment of the lingerie market. Through my research and interviews, I discovered that small busters have a harder time finding fashionable, well-fitting…

    Byelisabeth March 3, 2014 4:50 pmJune 24, 2025 3:28 pm

    The best part of my trip to New Orleans for Mardi Gras wasn’t the music, parties, and crazy costumes, but stumbling upon the wonderful Trashy Diva Lingerie store. I’d heard about Trashy Diva, and knew their reputation for quality vintage and retro-inspired clothing. The Lingerie Addict suggested I pay Trashy Diva a visit when I…

    How to beat winter blues when freezing temperatures have you bundled up or locked indoors? You could start with changing up the color of your lingerie.
