Summer Essentials Series #1 – Commando Mini-Cami Slip

by

Commando-Mini-Cami-SlipWelcome, Summer! This series is designed to help you stock your lingerie wardrobe with the most essential items for summer and its simple styles. I’ll tell you what to invest in to wear under all your light and airy fabrics, leg revealing dresses, shoulder baring camis, and more! Enjoy!

Essential #1 has already been in heavy rotation for me since the temperatures in NYC have risen! Why is this piece so critical? Well, first of all, the Commando Mini-Cami Slip is light so the extra layer isn’t bulky and because it is moisture-wicking, it doesn’t attract extra heat. Furthermore, the hem is weighted so I don’t have to deal with the A-line shaped slip riding up. My favorite facet, however, is the length. Hitting mid-thigh, this little number is perfect under my shorter summer dresses. Since most of those dresses are also made of lighter fabrics, the slip keeps me from showing all my business!

The Commando Mini-Cami Slip retails for $78 and is worth every penny. There are a few left in stock at Journelle (where I got mine). You can also check out Bare Necessities which also has full and half slip options. For the full collection (including the new Whisper Weight Half Slip),check out the Her Look website. Happy Shopping!

Freya and Fantasie Swimwear for Fuller Busts

by

I love the beach! In fact, I spend a significant portion of time there every summer. And, it wouldn’t be complete without an arsenal of Freya and Fantasie swimwear!

For years, I struggled accommodating my full bust into swimsuits. I tried buying XL tops in hopes of containing my assets, but because I’m so narrow around, the fit was never quite correct. I could never quite tie the straps around my neck and back tight enough. I could hardly enjoy myself because I was spending so much time fidgeting with my suit. And then…I met Freya!

I couldn’t believe that fun swimsuits could actually fit! Freya (and sister brand, Fantasie) swimsuits are bra-sized and designed to fit a wide range of sizes. Freya and Fantasie are sold at leading retailers including Bare Necessities, Linda’s, Town Shop, Asos, The Little Bra Shop, and Brastop.
