It’s fun! I love the design, the sheer volume of info on big gal bras and even independent designers, which I am SO for! Perhaps I shall call on one of these designers to create the ultimate bra for moi.

subreenaday answered: Any great lingerie websites where the pricing is under $50? Evrything is so expensive.
Great question! A lot of the same websites that carry pricey stuff also carry less pricey stuff. b. Tempt’d, O Lingerie, Jezebel, No Romeo, Pour Moi?, Lepel, and ASOS’ & Figleaves in-house brands are all friendly to the under $50 budget. Hips & Curves and Yandy.com also carry fun, vintage-inspired lingerie if pin-up style is more your thing.
Start your shopping here: Figleaves, ASOS, Bare Necessities , Hips and Curves, Yandy Lingerie.
lemonstolemons answered: Where can yo find a good garter belt?
My fave garter belts of all time are from What Katie Did. These are the real deal. Six straps, metal clips, powermesh, and they hold your stockings up All. Day. Long. Plus, they last forever, which you can’t always say about your lingerie.

Hi lovely, thanks for writing.
There’s definitely a learning curve when it comes to finding lingerie you love that fits and flatters your body, so my #1 bit of advice for ladies who are new to intimates is to 1) be willing to experiment and 2) shop from a store with a good return policy. That way you’re able to figure out what you love but (hopefully) not be stuck with things you won’t wear.
Figleaves offers several silk pieces in extended sizing if you’d like to start there. Look at the Figleaves Boudoir and Mimi Holliday for Damaris ranges in particular.
