Do you ever have days where you’d rather not wear a bra? If you’re also not keen on going braless, there is a compromise. A camisole with a built-in bra! This two-in-one garment gets top marks for simplicity and speedy dressing. You can even wear one in place of a sports bra plus tank top…
So much new lingerie gets released each season, it’s easy to miss a lot of it. So today’s post is a little recap of some of the best (in my opinion) Fall/Winter 2019 pieces. Here you’ll find bra sets and lounge sets, plus pieces for full busts and plus sizes. And there’s something for every…
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…
Growing up, I thought 32 was the smallest band size because I never saw anything smaller. At least outside of the ‘teen bra’ department, there were zero small band bras. However, thanks to pressure from customers, brands are expanding their size ranges upwards and downwards. I wear a 30 band, and I no longer struggle…
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.

The Summer edition of Curve NY is one I never miss. I honestly love the colorful and fun touch that brands often add to their Spring/Summer collections. A lot of lingerie labels only show their swimwear at this time of the year, but there is so much more to see. Today I’m walking you through…
I’ve been a huge fan of Bravissimo for ages, but I never thought their stores would make it over the pond to the US. Not only did they launch a US-friendly version of their website with easy returns, but they’ve now opened a flagship store in New York. So it seems the perfect time to…
When shopping for sports bras, you’ll frequently come across two terms: “breathable” and “moisture-wicking.” It’s important to know that these are different things. Breathable fabric is one that lets air (and moisture) flow through. In a sports bra context, mesh materials are popular for obvious reasons. Breathable fabrics keep you cool so that you sweat…
Though we are all born naked, some of us feel more comfortable—day and night—with a little extra support around the bust. Fortunately, we don’t need to bring underwires to bed. As the bralette trend keeps expanding, it has never been easier to find non-wired full bust sleep bras. Whether you prefer custom-made, easy-fit or cup…
I remember many years ago getting my first “proper” bra. My bust at that time was around a 32G, and I was relatively young. I went to the department store and given a Fantasie “smoothing” T-shirt bra in the color of a digestive biscuit. I’ll admit the fit was lovely but was this the best…
