When you work in the lingerie industry, it’s easy to feel like things get a little stale at the end of a season. You’ve been looking at and writing about the same bras all season, and you’re ready for something new. I was thrilled to see the new Spring lingerie releases start to trickle out…
Our recent post about trends in lingerie made a quick mention of Pantone’s color of the year: ultra-violet. That’s right; the Pantone people pick a new fashion color every year. Maybe it’s just to get us add it to our wardrobes (it is their job, after all). But colors do carry meaning and energy. According to their…
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…
As holidays go, Christmas has to be my favorite. I love it all: the music, the sparkly decorations and the excuse to dress up in dramatic or kitschy outfits. I am the crazy lady who puts up her Christmas decorations on Thanksgiving afternoon and starts stashing advent calendars in October. The holidays are an excellent…
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…
When people find out what I do, they have one question: “Where can I buy bras?” People ask this independent of venue, appropriateness, timing or awkwardness. I’ve had my mother’s friends ask me where to find sexy lingerie while sitting on my childhood sofa and had others talk to me about nipple coverage in elegant…
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…
Warmer weather is here, which means it’s time for swimsuits! While full-bust swimsuits always lag behind the full-bust lingerie world in terms of unique design options, it’s exciting to see how far things have come. There’s something for everyone here, whether you’re looking for a fun holiday suit, a genuinely supportive lap swimming option or…
Anyone with boobs knows how frustrating it can be to shop for swimwear—even more so if you’re looking for full bust swimsuits. Extra coverage isn’t the only issue. It’s about finding a style that you like on your body. Some people need more support or lift. And in my case, I’m looking for something that works…
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…
