Every woman knows that her breasts change. That’s what boobs do—fluctuate in size and shape over time or under certain circumstances, like pregnancy. My boobs have had their share of (get ready for it) ups and downs—together with some sideways movement—over the past 45 years. Now that I’m officially post-menopausal, and enjoying the many benefits of…
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…
Novelty Halloween prints? Either you love them, or you hate them. Or maybe, like Christmas jumpers, you love them but only to wear once a year. Whether you have no interest in a bat-print bra set or just can’t justify the cost for something you may never wear again, I have an alternative. Orange is…
Retailers with lingerie ranges don’t seem to get as much press as other lingerie brands. However, they are well-placed to create underthings that customers will love. Think about it—they have plenty of data on which styles, colors, sizes and price points sell best, which makes them ready to design the ‘perfect’ product. Below I’ve rounded…
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…
Today’s guest blog post is about a choice many large breasted women face: whether to consider cosmetic breast reduction surgery or rely on a better fitting bra. Ellen Lewis, of Lingerie Briefs, provides insight into this decision from the perspective of a full-busted woman and an industry professional. I’ve been wrestling quite a bit…
The first time I ever went to Curve (back when dinosaurs roamed the earth) I remember a huge emphasis on sexy shapewear. Every brand seemed to be trying to transform shapewear into something fashionable and desirable, rather than some beige piece making you feel like an overstuffed sausage. While that movement appears to have gone…
Who needs packing tips? I could have used a few before I came down to sunny Cabo San Lucas this week. Half the fun of travel, for me, is putting together my vacation wardrobe. I’m in Mexico celebrating the birthday of my good friend and fellow lingerie professional, Ellen Lewis of The Lingerie Briefs. (If you…
Floral bras aren’t anything new as a lingerie fashion trend. But there’s nothing like putting on a delicate floral lace or print design to welcome in the Spring and Summer seasons. It’s also a good time to refresh your bra wardrobe as you move away from cool to warm weather clothing styles. Plus, you might consider buying…
What are the reasons why bras don’t fit? According to some bra fitters, “85% of women are in the wrong size bra.” But that statistic is just a myth and fails to take into account that not all bras are sized or made the same way. So it’s not about finding the one, right size. Most…
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.
