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…
Why is it so hard to find the perfect bra? For starters, no two bras are made or sized the same way. I wear multiple band/letter combinations in different brands and styles (my Bra Zone). Plus boobs are always changing. Maybe some bra styles fit you better during your menstrual cycle. Then again, those may…
Lately, I’ve noticed a shift from articles focused on finding the correct bra size to talk about matching bra styles and breast shapes. What does it mean? Some retailers suggest that all you need to know is how to classify your boobs, and they’ll figure out the ideal bra style for you. It is important to acknowledge that breasts come in…
With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, there’s plenty of lingerie romance in the air. But are you feeling the love for your bra wardrobe? Do you have a bra sitting in your top drawer that lets you down again and again, but you keep it around because it’s hard to let it go? Or maybe…

I know a little bit about lingerie shopping for older breasts. I’ve stuffed and crammed my boobs into every bra size and style imaginable over the past 40+ years. But my single biggest challenge (including dressing unpredictable, lactating breasts) has been finding bras to fit and flatter my over 50 figure. It’s not easy to shop for bras when…
The plus size, small bust bra market has been very slow to grow. With all of the excited talk about lingerie brands extending their band sizing, smaller cups haven’t received much attention. While these companies may offer larger band sizes, most of their cup sizes start at D or higher. This is no surprise as…
