Freya Fancies black underwire plunge cup bra & Brazilian panty on Lingerie Briefs

When I was a teenager, going bra shopping was torturous. I was a G cup by the time I was in high school, which meant that finding bras required a special (and frequently humiliating) trip to Nordstrom.

I’ve been in Cabo now for just one week. Perhaps it’s the familiarity of this place for me after several years, but I have begun to notice innuendos of this environment.

The beach is serene; the sand cool … Read More
