  • What Do Underwires Do in a Bra?

    by Estelle Puleston May 18, 2021
    by Estelle Puleston May 18, 2021

    Underwired bras seem to be the Marmite of the lingerie world. But what do these love-’em-or-hate-’em wires do? You probably know that they play a role in adding support to the bra, but how do they do it?

  • 6 Brands Making Supportive Sleepwear For Fuller Busts

    by Eleanor Wiseman December 2, 2019
    by Eleanor Wiseman December 2, 2019

    While some relish the moment of being able to take your bra off as soon as you walk through the door, some fuller-busted people prefer to avoid going completely sans support. Bigger busts can sometimes be uncomfortable to work around while sleeping.

  • 24 Places to Find AA, AAA & AAAA Cup Bras

    by Estelle Puleston October 15, 2019
    by Estelle Puleston October 15, 2019

    One of the least talked-about sizes categories in the lingerie industry is sub-A cup sizing. It’s also one of the least catered-to, with almost all brands (besides, of course, full-bust specialists) beginning their range at an A cup.

    by Estelle Puleston July 9, 2019

    We’ve got bras engineered to shape your bust in practically any way – to make it look rounder, pointier, more lifted, more pushed-together, bigger, and yes, smaller too. That last one is what we call a ‘minimiser’ bra.

  • Bra Sister Sizes – How & Why They Work

    The more you read about bra fitting, the more complex it can seem. I’d like to change that, by breaking down some different aspects of it and explaining them as clearly as possible. First up, a helpful little thing called sister sizing.

  • How to Air Dry Lingerie Without That Awful Damp Smell

    by Estelle Puleston February 20, 2019
    by Estelle Puleston February 20, 2019

    In the UK, I would sometimes leave things hanging in the bathroom to dry, and two days later they would still be damp! Oh, and smelling awful by then too. The bad odour is caused by mildew. So how can you dry your lingerie in a way that protects these delicate garments, but leaves them smelling clean and fresh?

  • What is a Bralette Exactly?

    by Estelle Puleston June 22, 2018
    by Estelle Puleston June 22, 2018

    Ever since the explosion in bralette popularity, I’ve spotted more than a few brands labelling something as a bralette when it’s clearly not. And it annoys me, because it spreads misinformation and confuses consumers about what a bralette really is.

New review! Over two years after writing that I wa New review! Over two years after writing that I was "begrudgingly in the market for a nude bra", I finally stopped putting it off and bought one. And you know what? I actually really like it.

I've always thought the @lovepanache Clara looks like it's covered in delicate lace appliqué. You can really see what I mean on the other versions of this bra where the floral sections are done in a different colour. The effect is much more subtle on this all-beige Chai option, but it's still got to be one of the prettier 'practical beige bras' out there.

I'd love to know what you think of this bra if you've tried it! I'll pop the link to my blog review in my stories 🔗

Super excited to introduce you to @tensengral, bec Super excited to introduce you to @tensengral, because the way these bralettes are made is so interesting!

First, there was hand-woven bobbin lace. Then machines were developed to mimic the motion of the makers' hands at work. And now, those very same, century-old machines have been modified to work with a computer, allowing for even more complex patterns to be braided together.

Each Tensengral bralette is braided on this machine in a single piece. You can find out lots more about them (and see the other available styles) over on the blog - I'll put the link in my story.

Which of these two styles is your favourite - high necked or plunge?

It's been a week of 40°C weather and our air-con It's been a week of 40°C weather and our air-con is broken 🥵. If you're wondering how I'm surviving, the answers are a) barely, b) exclusively thanks to my silk loungewear, and c) by constantly reminding myself that I'll soon be back in cool, rainy England for my first trip home since pre-pandemic times. At this rate, I might just stay there till the end of summer!

Any tips for staying cool when even chilling on the sofa makes you sweat??!

A couple of years ago I did a 'mix n match' series A couple of years ago I did a 'mix n match' series on Instagram showing how I mix different brands together, and I thought I'd briefly revive it to show you this old favourite from my collection - a silk harness knicker by @lalilouche.

I don't recall if there was a matching bra for this piece, and I kept meaning to find a nice lilac one to go with it but never did. I don't *love* this combination with the @aubadeparis Bahia bra in 'Tutti Frutti', but the pale pink straps on the knicker work nicely layered over it, and there's also a touch of lilac in the print. So it's how I style the knicker for now.

Do you own any La Lilouche? And have you seen any pretty lilac bras around lately that I should know about? 👀

How pretty is this printed velvet?! 🌸🌷🌺 🌹

It's comfy and cosy too. I won't lie, I have on occasion worn this all day long when I wasn't planning to leave my home. Do you ever just not bother with getting dressed? 🙈 

P.S. @lavender_dreams_ua is a handmade brand from Kyiv, which has thankfully been able to move to a safe place and continue sewing/shipping orders. If you're looking for Ukrainian brands to shop with right now, I can recommend this one! (And there's a full review up on my blog with fit and construction details).
