Girls like to help too!

Friday, October 16th, 2009

Your mother may have told you to always wear a fresh pair, but I doubt she told you what to wear to impress the ladies (or gentlemen). No matter who you’re showing your undies off to, one thing is for certain: what you wear on the inside can make or break you when it comes to first impressions. Here are a few recommendations from a gal who has seen it all and expects you guys to know better.

Calvin Klein Steel Micro Low Rise Trunk

Not only is this trunk from Calvin Klein super comfortable, but it looks sexy too. The edgy design and low-rise makes it perfect for peeking out the top of skinny jeans. Plus, I love to wear them too!

Bjorn Borg Fun Stretch Printed Trunk 085-10-2105

This one is a winner boys. Bjorn Borg definitely knows how to use prints and colors so you can show off your fun side. This classic black and white trunk has an allover trophies print that will win you the gold medal of love.

C-IN2 Bold Stripe Profile Brief 1603B

I hope you’re not afraid of color because chicks dig it. This C-IN2 profile brief has a sophisticated cut and print that is bold but not too loud. And the body-conscious fit will guarantee all eyes are on you.

Emporio Armani 3-Pack Boxer Brief 110869

Don’t you dare attempt to wear boxer shorts around your lady (or man for that matter)! If you insist on undies with longer legs, try this boxer brief from Emporio Armani. It looks classic without a touch of sloppy. And this 3-pack is a great value!

Ginch Gonch Boys and Toys Bikes Low Rise Brief 1136BTB

Having a sense of humor makes you much more fun to be around. What better way to show it off than with these playful Ginch Gonch briefs? All the girls will think you’re super cute! Can you say crush material?

2xist Essentials No Show Trunk B1033

Be a simple kind of man. Having chic, everyday basics like this 2xist trunk will prove you’re not trying to be more fashionable than she is. Super soft with a body-conscious fit, you’ll have her coming back for more once she sees you in these. Go for sexy in basic black.

Guys Like to Help

Monday, October 12th, 2009

Hey ladies. Why get bra recommendations from a fellow female when you can get them from a fellow? Guys know what a woman looks good in (just as well as anyone else); the motives for the choice may be different, but they’re still reliable picks. Plus, in many circumstances, you are trying to impress the man (or significant other) in your life anyway, so why not get his (or my) opinion. Here are the bras I think a woman should have to look sexy, but that are still practical and wearable every day (yes, I said practical, you should still be comfortable).

Le Mystere Dream Tisha Lace Bra Le Mystere Dream Tisha Lace Bra 965
Why? These bras are one of Oprah’s favorites for a reason – the compliment any woman’s form, while not being too frilly. I love a woman that is feminine but not over the top. This fits the bill.
Elle Macpherson Intimates Procession Contour Bra Elle Macpherson intimates Procession Contour Bra E72-700
Why? The dainty small ribbon and accents around the cup are really sexy. Wear this and he’ll swoon. Plus the contrasting colors keep it fresh (and him interested).
Wacoal Luxe Femme Fatale Push-Up Bra 55834 Wacoal Luxe Femme Fatale Push-Up Bra 55834
Why? It says it all in the name. This will push-up the girls and knock him out cold.
Le Mystere Sculptural Strapless Push-Up Bra 2755 Le Mystere Sculptural Strapless Push-Up Bra 2755
Why? A strapless dress on a woman, obviously, shows off more skin and but also lets him know you’re confident about your figure. I say if you have the sex appeal, flaunt it.
b.tempt'd by Wacoal Sheer Brilliance Underwire Bra 951120 b.tempt’d by Wacoal Sheer Brilliance Underwire Bra 951120
Why? It’s sheer enough to make him have to look more than once, but opaque enough that he never sees anything. He’ll be putty. Plus, it’s designed to wear all-day in total comfort. You win twice over with this one.
Wacoal Luxe Amazing Lace Push-Up Bra 55847 Wacoal Luxe Amazing Lace Push-Up Bra 55847
Why? Growl. Ridiculously hot and flatters your figure like no other.
Calvin Klein Perfectly Fit Tailored Push-Up Bra F3001 Calvin Klein Perfectly Fit Tailored Push-Up Bra F3001
Why? You don’t need all the bells & whistles. The clean line & simple styling does the trick.

All-in-all, any bra can give you a surge of confidence while making him weak in the knees. My main word of caution? Be sure you’re wearing the right size – there’s nothing worse than a woman with a bulge. Leave that for him.

The Leaves Are Changing And So Should Your Underwear Wardrobe

Tuesday, September 8th, 2009

Labor Day has passed, meaning the end of summer is quickly approaching. But there is much to look forward to with the coming of fall. The rich, beautiful colors of autumn foliage, bonfires and lower subway station temperatures help us ease our way out of the carefree summer months. But the most fun fall activity of all is shopping for new, cooler weather threads- and you better believe this includes unmentionables! Check out our top five picks for men’s and women’s fall must-haves.

Rainy Day Rescue

Wednesday, April 22nd, 2009

Spring is a blast. It rains, gets sunny for five minutes, rains again, then the temperature varies from 78 one day to 45 the next. Not only can this bipolar weather be tricky to predict, it can be even more problematic to dress for.

Most rainy days fall into one of three levels of exertion…

  • Excessive: Going to Work
  • Moderate: Going out puddle jumping (figuratively or literally, depending on your ambition)
  • Minimal: Lazy-comfy day of doing nothing at all (Best Option)

Let’s Review…

Excessive Effort – Going to Work:

Requires:
Getting out of bed, making yourself look presentable, getting dressed, becoming rain-proof, vaulting puddles that somehow are the size of small lakes, dealing with traffic jams/delayed buses/mobbed subways, plus then actually working (if you make it there in one piece).

Recommended Duds:
Good boots, slicker, huge golf umbrella to annoy those you almost stab in the face, some colorful boxers (the day is dreary, your underwear shouldn’t be) and a micro modal t-shirt. Start with these:

Art Trunk 2022 by Clever
Soft-stretch cotton with a fun, colorful print that gives your underwear a hint of culture – not only will these emphasize your body, but they’re like an art class in your pants!
Modal Silver Crew Neck T-Shirt RCC-4024 by Report Collection
An instant favorite with anyone who wears it - this tagless-tee is made of a smooth-as-butter micro-modal fabric that’s body defining and provides a great fit all day.

Moderate Effort – Leaving Home:

Requires:
Getting dressed, rain-proofing (optional).

Recommended Duds:
Comfortable clothing that can transform into bum clothes once you get back home (while optimally not looking like an actual bum). Wear a shirt you can layer and boxers that are comfortable for running through puddles and sitting in a coffee shop. This duo is great on a wet day:

Steel Micro Cocoa Low Rise Trunk U2716-32509 by Calvin Klein
Sexy, edgy micro-fiber trunk that provides the ultimate softness against your skin – the silver waistband adds a little glimmer to your dull day when it peaks out from under your low-rise jeans.
Miami Vice V-Neck T-Shirt M30795 by D&G Dolce & Gabbana
It takes a masculine guy to pull off pink – if you have the gumption, check-out D&G’s euro-styled V. This ringer tee is super soft, body-defining and adds Miami spice even in a downpour.

Minimal Effort – Becoming a Hermit

Requires:
The will to not do anything at all (it can be hard to muster, but keep at it!).
Recommended Duds:
Stay in your most comfortable clothes…be it underwear, a tee or some other pj derivative. Two sexy styles to maximize your comfort:

Pima Cotton Square Cut Tank Top 2927 by 2xist
Pima cotton is your friend – it’s insanely soft and accentuates your body like no other. The square cut design is great for your rainy day do-nothings (but versatile enough for almost any occasion – layered or not).
Argyle Reworked Long John 1217ARG by Ginch Gonch
Yes, long johns - I can’t help it, they’re argyle! Ginch Gonch can make anything sexy and they succeeded here. The soft-stretch cotton hugs the body and plush-backed waistband won’t rub the skin during your stint of sitting.

Behind the Brands- Why finding the perfect fit is harder than it seems

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009

An exclamation I have heard time and time again is Why can I never find a bra that fits perfectly?! What is the perfect bra? It is every woman’s dream and nightmare to search for a bra that fits and flatters, and has the right style to express her personality. Even being in the industry of underwear does not give you the magic looking glass. I cannot tell anyone that they can find the “perfect” fitting bra. I think you can find a fabulous bra, that fits your needs but here are the things you need to understand about the bra industry behind those perfect peaks you are seeking so that you might have a better chance of maneuvering through the bra aisles and pages, to a brand and a bra that fit you just right.

Brand Loyalty

This goes two ways, it goes between a customer and a brand, in that if you keep buying the bra, the brand will keep making it. This means no waiting years to buy another, if you see it in a different color stock up. If you notice your bra’s fabric and elastic getting shot don’t hold out a couple more months! Here at Freshpair, we try to make finding your favorite styles easy. You can search by:

If you’re above a D finding a bra that can balance the weight of your chest becomes an uphill battle. You’ll want to stick with brands that specialize in fuller figures because they’ll inherently understand your needs better than a brand that takes a 34B bra and sizes it up to you. Here is where a brand’s loyalty to you comes in, because it is in their best interests to know who their customer’s are and to continue making great bras that fit their needs.

Here are some great brands that make sure they make bras with fuller figure women in mind!

Refit yourself often as well, because throughout the month and year your body can fluctuate in size and throw off your fit, in some cases by one full cup size! In that case different fitting bras may be appropriate. For fitting tips check our fit guide.

Fit Models

One thing you might not think about when purchasing a bra is the planning and fitting that goes into getting that bra just right. You might not know that for all of the apparel industry there are models who fit specific sizes that come into designer showrooms and actually try on and comment on the fit of the products that wind up in your closet and lingerie drawers. These fit models must maintain the size they are hired to fit in, and here’s where you can get a lot of insight into why one company’s size 34B might fit slightly differently than another’s- they have different fit models!

If one fit model is a young perky 34B while another is a fuller, older, and heavier 34B the bras will serve two completely different body types. One will be built more for function and lift because it is being fit on breasts that need them, and the other is being fit on a tighter figure so it can be less about function and more about fashion. This explains so much as to why certain brands fit what many term “real women” while others fail to meet those needs.

Another thing you might find interesting, there is no way to fit all the bra band/cup combinations, so the major bra fit sizes are the ones you find most women end up buying 32A, 34B, 36C, 38D, and it all gets a little more complicated above D when companies differ in their size labeling.

Materials

Each fabric stretches differently, and when you combine fabric with elastic the stretch needs to be “married” properly. A lot of experimentation and fittings go into getting each new fabric variation of a bra right. For instance, just because the microfiber version fits one way, does not automatically translate into cotton.

Since Calvin Klein has a really great fit team behind their brand these styles in their Perfectly Fit collection in different materials should fit great across the board. One is a microfiber T-shirt bra, another allover and unlined lace, one a lace and microfiber combination, and finally a push up.

Perfectly Fit Push-Up Bra F2541 by Calvin Klein Perfectly Fit with Lace Push Up Bra F2597 by Calvin Klein Perfectly Fit Naked T-Shirt Bra F2837 by Calvin Klein Perfectly Fit All Day Lace Unlined Underwire Bra F2857 by Calvin Klein

Underneath it All

Underneath fabrics the cups and underwires are major reasons that one bra fits differently from one to another even within the same brand. The rise of the molded cup has been a great revolution because you can get a molded fabric without seams or a molded pad with a natural shape and even push built in, but at the same time you are trying to fit all the many variations of natural breasts into a very specific shape built by a molding machine. Not every woman will fit into each mold. So from one shape cup to the next the mold is going to be different which means even if you are a Calvin Klein girl, you might not find the perfect fit across the brand. That’s just an example because a brand like Calvin Klein is pretty true to size across their product range. It is really all about your personal shape and finding a bra that fits you.

Directly connected to the cups the different thicknesses and styles/shapes of underwire are also a big part of the fit. If you are a fuller figure that needs a more secure fit don’t go for underwire with a wide or half moon shape like you’ll find on plunge styles below:

Underneath, Sheer Scroll Convertible Ultra Light Contour Plunge Bra 131040 by Natori Strappies Bump Push-Up Plunge Underwire Bra 2111796 by Lily of France

Look for underwires that are more U-shaped which hold and support. Make sure you are wearing the right size, because improper sizing is a major reason women feel digging underwires!

Satin Comfort Lined Underwire Bra 35110 by Olga Hedona Seamless Molded Underwire Bra 2031 by Chantelle

I hope this has helped give you some insight into what goes into a product behind the scenes that might affect the fit once you get it home! Hope you have some more luck armed with a little bit more information!

Double the Trouble for National Look Alike Day

Monday, April 20th, 2009

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Well, that’s what they say at least. Maybe you’re the type of person who gets a kick from dressing like your best friend. Or perhaps you’re a photo-fanatic mom who loves getting portraits of your children in matching outfits (if you check out my parent’s living room, it’s obvious my sister and I were children of this hullabaloo). But not everyone likes to play these games. Sometimes you want your individual style to stand out. Whatever your disposition may be, throw it out the window. Why? Because it’s National Look Alike Day!! This doesn’t mean you need a twin sibling or scarily accurate resemblance to one of your cousins. And I guarantee you can imitate someone else without the casual observer knowing. How? By wearing matching underwear of course! Here are some his and her styles adorable enough for matching photographs.

To feel like a kid again, put on some Ginch Gonch Multiple Trucks Loader Dumper Briefs:

Multiple Trucks Loader Dumper Brief 1116Mt by Ginch Gonch Multiple Trucks Loader Dumper Hipster Brief 2116Mt by Ginch Gonch

These playful, colorful briefs from Ginch Gonch will bring back memories of a time when mom picked your clothes out for you. It’s rather stylish to be a copycat these days.

To make a fashion statement, strut in Calvin Klein Steel:

Steel Cotton Sea Thyme Short D1348-1125 by Calvin Klein Fashion Steel Micro Low Rise Trunk U2716-12509 by Calvin Klein

The thick, branded waistband is back and making a fashion-forward statement. The two of you will be looking fly all around town with the 90s revival Calvin Klein Steel undies peeking out of your jeans.

If sexy satin is your pick, how about Bjorn Borg:

Fun Satin Brief 085-7-2012 by Bjorn Borg Fun Satin Trunk 085-10-2005 by Bjorn Borg

Show off your smooth moves in these matching satin unmentionables from Bjorn Borg. Available in fun and punchy colors, even the manliest man and most un-girly girl will want to slip into these.

For fresh and bright spring nights, go with Diesel:

Fresh and Bright Cotton Stretch White with Contrast Trim Oxi Brief 00AEDNPZP by Diesel Fresh and Bright Cotton Stretch White with Contrast Trim Lukex Brief 00ADX8SDR by Diesel

If clean and simple is your look for spring, Diesel has the brief for both of you. Brightly colored trim spices up the boring, basic white knickers. These are guaranteed to make you smile.

For the twin gym enthusiasts, think Champion:

Cotton Blend Low Rise Boy Short 3315 by Champion Double Dry Seamless Rib Trunk U521 by Champion

For some, the gym is a prime location to strut their stuff. Both ladies and gents, can look foxy in the locker room with these performance undies from Champion. Stay dry, look fly.

And there you have it! Whether you and your look-a-like twin will show these off in public or keep them a playful secret, you know you’ll be fully covered for the occasion.

Organic Solutions for Earth Day

Friday, April 17th, 2009

The first Earth day was celebrated April 22, 1970, marking the beginning of the modern environmental movement. On Earth Day we strive to recognize the needs of the planet above the needs of ourselves, and since 1970 the “Green” movement has slowly become a year round effort to support sustainable products that would minimize our impact on the environment.

I’m so happy to share the range of organic products that are making their way into the intimate apparel and loungewear categories. What makes organic cotton the most logical evolution in this category is that cotton is such a staple of men’s and women’s intimates already. Cotton processing is also one of the most laborious and currently lacking in sustainability. From picking, to cleaning, to grading, and then to producing fabric there are many opportunities for chemicals, pesticides, and other environmentally harmful practices to enter into cotton production. There is therefore a natural need for us to transition into eco-friendly products in the cotton category. These products reduce or eliminate the impact of the cotton harvest.

There are a few women’s brands that are featuring collections in organic cotton. Sleep easy in these organic Hane’s styles knowing that you’ve done a part in reducing your impact (in style of course!)

Hanes Organic Sleep Crew FDTE Hanes Organic Sleep Pant FDPT Hanes Organic Sleep shirt FDSS

Here is another range of great organic cotton products for women by Patagonia. These comfortable and stylish loungewear pieces could take you to the gym, beach, and are perfect for lounging around the house!

For the fellas, you can take on the organic trend as well. Baskit and Guilio have great collections of organic cottons that embrace the effort to go green with style:

Spring Awakening

Thursday, April 16th, 2009

Days are getting longer, clothes are becoming more noticeably absent - it’s time to switch things up for Spring.

Don’t worry - You won’t be alone, ‘new’ is showing up everywhere.

Case in point, a glimmer of this new-ness smacked me in the face this morning when I walked by a NYC construction site. This was a standard site, the ones epitomized by cat-calls and other unnecessary displays of faux-masculinity. But, while these huge burly, sweaty men were welding, hauling lumber and doing mason work, they weren’t shouting at passing women (or men, should they be so inclined)… instead, these dudes were blasting Lady Gaga’s “Poker Face”. It was interesting (to say the least) and definitely new.

I figure if they can mix things up for Spring, you can too. To help you get your ‘new’ on, I’ve gathered together some fresh underwear styles that should be of benefit…

Boxer Briefs:

Ginch Gonch Multiple Stars Reworked Sports Brief Trunk MS
You always said the whole universe was in your pants – might as well make it true. These starry stretch cotton trunks from Ginch Gonch are comfortable, fun (plus, are a limited edition print) and sure to add a twinkle to anyone’s eye who sees them.
2(x)ist Optic Trunk 4023
Shed your pants and show off your 2(x)ist Optic Trunks. The bright, contrast waistband and bold colors are a show-stopper, plus, the trunk’s modal fabric is designed to hug the skin while being ultra-comfortable all day – perfect for spring.
D&G Paintball Shorty Trunk M30813
La dolce vita is yours with Dolce & Gabbana’s Paintball Shorty Trunk. D&G’s fun, Spring colors that are sure turn heads – some classic Italian flair in your pants should keep everyone happy.

Briefs & Thongs:

C-IN2 Core Lo No Show Profile Brief 4013
You don’t need bright colored underwear barely covering your goods to get approving stares – C-IN2’s recently updated Core Collection features basics that stand out – they are perfect for all day wear, insanely comfortable and cut to show off a guy’s body (without showing too much).
Clever Tricolor Stripes Brief 0581
These are just fun. Clever took a standard brief and spiced them up with some contrast edges, a fun striped dye job & microfiber fabric for all over comfort. Every guy needs underwear that shows his playful side – these will definitely fit the bill.
Pikante Scottish Thong 8406
Not that I’m a big thong fan, but how could I pass over plaid ones? Pikante, the Spicy Underwear, recently introduced this hot little number for the guy who wants to show some skin while also paying homage to the Scots and their fun tartan pattern. Who needs a kilt when you have these?

Shape up for that Date

Wednesday, February 18th, 2009

Shape up in Seconds with Spanx, Sassybax, Flexees, and Body Wrap!

Valentine’s day is over, and if you have or haven’t nailed down that significant other, date night still leaves you struggling to figure out what to wear that flatters your figure (maybe there are a couple of Christmas pounds still lingering into the New Year despite your resolutions). On a romantic evening champagne will be flowing, chocolate covered strawberries awaiting, and the last thing you want is to disrobe and look less than stunning.

Thank today’s shapewear, it will save you and suck you in for that special evening. Even if you plan on slipping into something sexy for the second half of the evening you don’t want to be checking your gut throughout the decadent dinner you are most likely to be enjoying!

For a knee length dress or longer, for a skintight sweater and jeans I suggest something that smooths from chest to thighs leaving no rolls or bumps in between.

Spanx Hide and Sleek Hi-Rise Smoother 096 This Spanx Hide-and-Sleek Smoother is an overall great choice, for shaping the tummy and legs together.

For a short dress in the winter months you can get away with wearing leggings and what better than to show off those legs with Sassybax’s leggings.

Sassybax Bottoms Up Leggings BUL01 These shamefully sexy leggings that shape, sculpt and define what you already have will ensure he remembers all the things he has to be thankful for!

If you want something under your dress that looks just as good when revealed, check out this super sexy slip from Flexees. With the right lighting, it could pass as a sexy cocktail number!

Flexees Firm Control Strapless Slip 3741 Wear this with some sexy hosiery and a slinky dress and you’ll stun him from the dining table to the after dinner fun you’re sure to incite!

If you’re enjoying a more laid back date, nothing could help you pull it off better than shapewear in the guise of a pretty lacy cami!

Spanx Hide and Sleek V-Neck Lace Cami 144 Try Spanx’s sleek V-neck with lace cami and you can get extra versatility if you switch it up and wear it with a suit or jeans!

It’s been a long time since the 80’s but I say bodysuits need to make a comeback even if just in the bedroom. How sexy is this thong bodysuit from Body Wrap?

Body Wrap Bodysuit Thong with Underwire 44015 It’s sexy coming and going and I can’t imagine what guy wouldn’t see shades of Flashdance when you flash your derrière.
