I love blogs! My friend Suzie read my blog post fawning over Chantelle bras and surprised me my with a bra, the Chantelle 2596
The Chantelle Graphie Bra is a fun monogrammed checkered style “C” print. It's definitely unlike any other bra I own. So fun!
Thanks Suzie! I owe you.

Chantelle Bras
THe Chantelle 2031 is my latest bra obsession. The Chantelle Hedona Underwire Bra is super supportive with a built in underwire. I love the satin style and precious lace embroidery. Its an attractive bra but practical enough to wear regularly. However I try not to wear it everyday because you should never wear the same bra two days in a row. Perspiration can cause elastic to deteriorate. Rotate your bras so they have a chance to rest.
I also really like the Chantelle 2895. The Chantelle Body Sculpt T-Shirt Bra has seamless cups which look perfect under almost any top ( I hate when you can see bras though shirts). The stripe design on band gives it a youthful, sporty style.

Summer shopping
I know swim wear isn't really lingerie but it kinda is so I'm going to blog about it here.
My top pick for a suit this season is the Karla Colletto Cross Over Solids Underwire Bathing Suit. It comes in a sexy scarlett shade that is sure to look awesome with a tan.
I usually wear two pieces but I'm in the market for a new one piece simply because it seems tacky to wear a two piece to the pool at my gym. I stupidly did that once and felt like a big jerk. Especially while sharing a lap lane with a creepy old guy. His eyes were on me and not the lane ahead of him causing him to smash face first into a child. Oh well, I guess that means I'm looking good these days ;)
But really every woman should own a one piece, it's a wardrobe staple.
On that note, I'm off to order my scarlett suit!

Yahooooooo!
Looks like my favorite shop Linda's is getting some love from Yahoo. I was researching bra shops online and oddly enough Linda's came up first when I typed in bra fitting in NY. Guess there was no need for me to look elsewhere.

Sports Bras for Busty Babes
My best friend is well endowed and has a hard time finding sports bras that will support her chest when we go workout. I directed to Linda's bra store in NYC assuring her that if anyone knew about a solid, supportive larger sized sports bra it would be Linda.
Sure enough my BFF walked out of Lindas with three sports bras that she now swears by. Mind you I am not a large chested girl so i can't give you a first hand report of these bra but according to my friend the following are excellent sports bras for larger women:
Goddess Soft Cup Sports Bra
and
Goddess Front Close Sports Bra
While I may not wear these bras I can confirm that my girlfriend has been running faster and complaining less since she began wearing these bras. So if you're in need of some extra sports support check out the links above.

Simone Perele Delices
I just bought this Simone Perele Delices Bra and the Simone Perele Delices Demi Cup Bra and I must say I can't decide which I love more. They are so girly and sweet. I am very pleased with my purchases. Very pleased.
To me, Delices is delicious!

Bra Fitting in New York
As you many have noticed by now I am an avid Linda the Bra Lady fan. You may even call me obsessed. But hey, when I like something, I like something. (I used to have a blog all about peanut butter. I know I am a nut! Pun intended!)
But seriously folks, after getting to know everything I could about bras, bra accessories, and fittings and , I decided I need some live, one on one bra knowledge so I went to get a bra fitting in New York, NY by the queen of underthings, Linda!
Linda's bra store is a lingerie lovers dream come true. Her shop is filled with bras, panties and sales women who know a lot of about under things (even more than me!)
I spent almost two hours in there, looking at bras, trying on bras, and of course buying waaay too many bras.
Linda gave me a fitting I will never forget. She got me into the right size, a 36 C. AS may recall from a previous post I had also discovered my incorrect size using her at-home bra fitting. Guess this means Linda's online directions are indeed correct (and perhaps I am also a bra wiz).
So if you're in NYC make sure you head to Linda's Bra Salon. Trust me, you'll walk out of there happy (and holding lots of new, fun, bras!)
