Recently, I’ve been getting quite the lesson on European bras and lingerie. I’ve always been a fan of the Euro brands, despite the slight sizing differences. Personally, I think they fit fuller busts very well and the brands like Chantelle believe larger busted women should also have bras that are pretty (not just a nude t-shirt bra or granny-style minimizer).

Summer is here and with the long languid days, ever warm, I think of Lake George east of the Adirondacks in upstate New York. It is not hard.

Now it’s time for some bridal girl-brief answers! Here’s where we last left off:
