A couple of weeks ago, my husband flew back to New York for some family business and found a package waiting for me at home. It was two bras from the LOU Lingerie Stripes collection: the spacer (32237) and the unlined moulded cup (42237), both members of the brand essentials.

Here’s why. The market explosion in this category speaks volumes about the American lifestyle. The evolution of the wardrobe from … Read More
The other day, while taking a walk in the desert, I had to stop twice. I wasn’t tired. I felt something in my shoe, sat down, took off my sneaker and shook it out.
