There’s a new decade ahead, and it’s tempting to track all my accomplishments over the past one. While it’s always good to look back on how far I’ve come, I’m more interested in what’s next. What’s going to push me out of my comfort zone and help me grow? With six decades behind me, I…
Growing up I had a very troubled relationship with my body. I was forever trying to be smaller, covering up my perceived lumps and bumps and wishing I looked like somebody else—mainly those super glossy girls in all of the magazines. This sense of inadequacy carried through to adulthood. And my body confidence only began…
Ever thought about doing a lingerie photoshoot? Not as a gift for a partner, be it their birthday or Valentine’s Day. I’m talking about getting out of your comfort zone, embracing vulnerability, and celebrating your one, beautiful feminine self. It can be scary to wear next to nothing for a photographer. But who says you have…
After the summer of 2014, twenty-three-year-old me watched my C cup breasts disappear into barely A’s. I had failed my then dreams and was punishing my first world problem with a first world solution: guilt, specifically guilting myself into not eating. I didn’t think I deserved to eat because I had failed at a nightmare…
You might be asking yourself, what’s up with Elisabeth’s hair? Maybe you’ve seen me go from a brunette, redhead, to a blond over the years. I recently bared my soul for the What’s Wrong With You?

While I was on the phone the other night with a friend, the most awkward aspect of my job came up: lingerie blogging. The friend in question is great, but she lives a state away now. Our friendship consists of long phone calls every other week to keep in touch. In our latest one, she…
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 word “badass,” as a descriptor, is popping up quite a bit these days, both in my personal and professional life. Back in May, my daughter gave me this Mother’s Day card: It ranks as the best card ever (except maybe those early hand-made ones covered in dyed, dried up pasta). Badassery also came up…
Dear E, Surprised to hear from your 60-year-old self? After several decades of boob ownership, I thought it might be useful to share some advice about breasts. We have them in common, but I don’t feel the same way about them as I did at your age. Bras aren’t everything. You can’t measure your breast self-worth…
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.
