Here’s something that first caught our eyes as a bridal set. Somehow though, June got away from us and we never featured it. So we thought we’d wasted our opportunity to feature a perfectly elegant lingerie set. After all, people only get married in June, right?
Then we looked a little more closely [...]

Most of the time, “stringy” is a bad thing. For example, if your hair is stringy you might have it re-styled or even pay hundreds of dollars a year to get extensions. If someone strings you along, you’d rather they just tell you their feelings and be done with it. If you’ve [...]

Freya lingerie is dedicated to helping women with larger bra cup sizes find the right lingerie - that is both functional AND pretty, up to an H cup. I recently tried their Freya Active 4002 underwired sports bra for a few reasons:
1. It’s an encapsulation bra. If you don’t know what that means or why [...]

We think the tap short is under rated among the various types of panties. Sure, it’s impractical for most daily activities of living, but it does pack a sexy punch as part of a sleepwear ensemble. It shows more leg than your standard short gown and it does so without showing off some [...]

It’s hard to believe another week has gone by here at the Intimate Guide. It seems like just yesterday that we were featuring the lovely Opin Divin thong from Aubade. But alas, it is once again Thong Thursday and this week we have something that (by name) might seem similar to last week’s [...]

Influenced by the entrepreneurial environment she encountred when working at Yahoo!, and prodded by an inability to find sleepwear that fit the shape of a full busted but not plus-sized woman, Christine Kurek launched a sleepwear & loungewear label this year, Buxom Inc.
A job in a Nordstrom’s lingerie department worked to Christine’s advantage. There she was [...]

Sometimes in life, awareness can be triggered through a single event. For instance, you might be at a party with a girlfriend who explains the meaning of a word to you. You are enthralled because you’ve never heard this word before. Suddenly, however, you hear it three more times in the next [...]

My friend Mandy and I both have reason for a new swimsuit. She’s going on a honeymoon in Jamaica, and my kids are leaving for sleep away camp for 3 weeks – giving me time to travel with Jeff. We both wear underwire bras, so we tried on the Freya and Fantasie swimwear lines. They [...]

If Thong Thursday was a little bit themed around the intimate fashions of the wizarding world, then Frilly Friday certainly has a bit of a pirate feel to it today. Although St. Tropez is actually a hangout for the rich and famous on the French Riviera rather than an island in the Caribbean, the [...]

We often talk about the imagery that a certain piece of lingerie evokes when we feature a product here at the Intimate Guide. For instance, last week’s DKNY Classic Curves thong evoked imagery of the “chalice” symbol - which is good because the chalice symbol represents femininity.
So, we’re not exactly sure why they call [...]
