A little sparkle goes a long way, at least in the case of lingerie designer Taryn Winters, whose sequin bra design (see image at bottom of this post) caught my attention and stopped me in my tracks while scrolling through Instagram. I love when discoveries like this happen! Granted, just because Taryn Winters is new to me, does not mean she’s a new discovery to Ellen … Read More
