I’d like to start this article by saying that I felt briefly conflicted about running two “item of the week” features during the same week. Once I found the swimsuits in today’s blog post, I basically wanted to share them with you immediately. But I wondered if it would be better to wait, and if perhaps I should just include them in a blog post for next week. Then I […]
This week, it’s a swimsuit extravaganza! I would apologize, but I can’t honestly say I’m sorry for sharing all the cool new things I’m finding with you. And earlier this year I’d said I wanted to do more swimwear, so… yay! I hope you’re enjoying our finds; there’s definitely more to come.

I’m genuinely not sure why this concept hasn’t taken off more, especially among some of the more well-known lingerie businesses. While brand-produced lookbooks are all well and good, I love getting a sense of what the boutique itself is really like. […]
