There’s a reason pajamas are such a popular holiday gift. They’re the kind of thing you can give to anyone, be they romantic partners, family members, and friends. And of all ages too! PJ sets are practical, not overly personal (unlike, say, a lingerie set), and can still be ultra-chic. Plus, the loose fit of…
What’s the difference between a balconette and demi-cup bra styles? That can be tough to figure out since both lingerie brands and retailers seem to supply contradictory information about their features. Some of their websites claim that the demi-cup exposes more of the breast than the balconette, and vice-versa. So it’s no wonder that the…
Many lingerie articles focus on the number of or styles of bras you should own, to create a complete lingerie wardrobe. But materials also matter, as does breast shape. And fashion tastes make a difference. So the recommended best bra styles for one person may not be right for someone else. And then there’s the…
Temperatures are finally dropping. But there’s still a little time left to flaunt some décolletage before we’re all wrapping up in scarves and polo necks. The best bra to wear with a V-shaped neckline is, of course, a plunge bra. This bra style has an unusually low center-front so that it won’t show under a…
Summer is here, and cami tops, halter dresses, and spaghetti straps are coming out in full force. Which raises the question, what bra style to wear with them? Strapless bras will stay hidden best, but many people find them insufficiently supportive. Racerback and T-back bras, on the other hand, are known for often boosting support….
Mother’s Day is the perfect time to say thank you to your mom for being genuinely incredible. And while we all appreciate a bunch of flowers now and then, there is a whole world of different and often more exciting gifts out there. As a mom of three, I often put myself last. And because…
Shortly before the holidays, Pantone announced that 2019’s color of the year would be Living Coral. A sort of salmon pink, they describe it as ‘animating’ and ‘lively.’ It “[symbolizes] our innate need for optimism and joyful pursuits,” the text continues. Now tell me if that doesn’t correctly summarize that springtime mood! I’m a fan…
Full slips are making a comeback. And I, for one, am glad to see this trend. A gorgeous slip is the perfect layering piece for colder weather. It prevents static cling under most fabrics. And it helps shape and smooth you in all the right places, not just visible panty lines. But I’m not talking about everyday shapewear pieces,…
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…
Where are all the hot older women in lingerie advertising? There are a few, but they are a rare find in a field of hard young bodies. When you age, you also get soft in some places—even if, like me, you work out with weights three times a week. And while “hot” may not be used…
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.
