    Pretty Blue Lingerie That Won’t Give You The Blues

    Byelisabeth October 24, 2016 9:03 am

    Blue lingerie is big this Fall. To be honest, it’s been a favorite color choice the past few seasons. What is it about blue? It turns out that it’s everyone’s favorite color. Blue is the color of the sea and the sky. It exudes trust and confidence, which is why it’s good to wear to a…

    Fall Lingerie Trends: In Stores or Coming Soon

    ByHolly123 September 26, 2016 9:14 am

    I stopped doing formal lingerie trade show coverage a few years ago for reasons that aren’t exactly a secret: much of the stock at shows like Curve looks pretty much the same. Lingerie trends have become less exciting over the past few years, and color palettes have evolved to focus on nothing but the most…

    How to Wear Lingerie in Your 50s, 60s, and Beyond

    Byelisabeth September 21, 2016 8:40 am

    Just because you’ve reached a certain age, doesn’t mean you have to give up wearing beautiful lingerie. Take it from a woman who participated in her first boudoir shoot at the ripe young age of 59. Still, it can be a challenge to shop for and wear lingerie in your 50s and 60s. You won’t…

    Clothes Shopping Problems? One Wardrobe Rule to Remember

    Byelisabeth July 18, 2016 9:38 amJune 15, 2025 6:29 pm

    I was out clothes shopping recently and struck by a comment from a fellow female shopper. The young woman was standing outside the dressing room in front of a large three-way mirror. As she studied her reflection, she kept tugging at her dress. “I’m not sure about this,” she said to the salesperson. She smoothed the fabric out…

    Swimsuit season is almost here, even though I know some of you were still wearing your parkas last week on the East Coast. Even if it’s still a little chilly where you live, it’s time to pick out a swimsuit. Whether you’re planning a summer vacation or just hanging around your pool, now is the…

    Full Busted and Full-Figured: A Lingerie Primer

    ByHolly123 January 13, 2016 9:02 am

    Shopping for clothing when you’re curvy can be tough. Figuring out what “type” of curvy you are according to the fashion industry can be even harder. How do you know when you are full busted or full-figured? Full busted and full-figured are used interchangeably in fashion articles and by brands, but knowing the difference between…

    Beyond Beige: 15 Nude Bras For Every Skin Tone

    Bylaurie November 18, 2015 9:37 am

    For far too long, lingerie companies have adopted a one-color-fits-all mentality. The nude molded cup bra is the most popular style in America. Meant to blend with the skin and disappear under clothes, the standard nude color only works with the fairest of skin tones. This “nude” is beige. Using the term to describe a…

    Beat the Heat with Cool Bra Styles and Accessories

    Byelisabeth August 12, 2015 9:04 am

    Warm enough for you this summer? I’m looking at ways to beat the heat as I pack for an upcoming trip to Las Vegas — where the temperature is supposed to be 107°. (Really.) So what do you wear, when you can’t wear a swimsuit because you need your bra on to conduct necessary business?…

    9 Fab Full Bust Sports Bras

    Bylaurie July 22, 2015 8:41 am

    If you’ve got big boobs, chances are your workout has been ruined by a poorly fitting sports bra. Surprisingly, studies have shown that most women either don’t wear a sports bra, or struggle through workouts with bras that don’t do their job. Unsupported breasts have serious bounce, with D cups moving 2-3″ in each direction….

    Back Smoothing Bras — Do They Work?

    Byelisabeth February 18, 2015 9:46 am

    Back fat is a big problem, or so it seems. It’s generated a whole new search category: the back smoothing bra. Online bra retailers list anywhere from 50 to 200 different bras under this one heading. But do any of them work? What is “back fat?” It seems a bit subjective, since what looks like back fat to you may not…
