Wild Nights: Emily Dickinson & Lingerie

Love Romance? Love Poetry? Emily Dickinson might just be the author for you on this day.

A life long romantic who never married, Emily was the eccentric singleton who only wore white and threw scribbled poems down from her upstairs window to the curious towns folk below.

In honor of Emily's pure passion and penchant for wearing white lace, I'm highlighting one of my favorite white lace bras. When I look at this Eberjey India Lace Bralette, it's easy to imagine Emily at her window, peeking through the sheer curtains at her neighbors below, who just wanted a quick look at the unconventional, reclusive poetess.

Whether you're in a relationship or single this Valentine's Day, anyone can appreciate Emily's connection with love and passion.

Wild Nights -- Wild Nights!
Were I with thee
Wild Nights should be
Our luxury!

Futile -- the Winds --
To a Heart in port --
Done with the Compass --
Done with the Chart!
Rowing in Eden --
Ah, the Sea!
Might I but moor -- Tonight --
in Thee!

~ Emily Dickinson (1830 - 1886)

"Well aren't we getting spoiled! Another Petite Fashionista worthy lingerie shop online just popped up to keep us looking great with undergarments that fit, meet Eve's Apples!

Her story....

What would Eve do if the only bra in Eden was a fig leaf three sizes too big?

That is just what every small breasted woman goes through when searching for the perfect bra. That was me. Growing up, I wanted Wonder Woman’s breasts as soon as I turned 13, and I couldn’t wait to buy French lingerie. Fully grown, I wound up with 1/4 of Wonder Woman’s cup size and was left searching for beautiful bras in the tween department. Something wasn’t right. I’d grown up but all I found around me were prepubescent training bras. And it wasn’t just me. My friends had the same dilemma bra shopping for small cup sizes. Something had to change......

Bra Finder: Find Your Perfect Bra Today!

What does a women do who is frustrated with bra sizes, has a small bust or a petite body, and wondering how she's going to get a good bra fitting? Bra shopping in person can be hard, not to mention online!...

Not anymore! Eve's Apples has developed a fun, easy to use Bra Finder that was made with you in mind.

Not every woman was created the same body and the same is true for women with small breasts. A woman with a 34A bra with full breast tissue can look bigger than a woman with a 32C bra with shallow breast tissue. That's one reason why so many women are wearing the wrong bra size. Many shallower busted gals think that they must be an "A" cup because they don't have full breast tissue. That isn't always the case.

The Bra Finder takes that information into consideration so that you will get the bra that closest fits your body type.

In order for you to get an accurate fitting as close as possible to being in an actual store, we've added additional features of the Bra Finder. The features are as follows:

• Breast Type: Fitting questions about your body type - to give a more accurate reading
• Breast Shape: The fullness of your breast tissue dictates what kind of bras will work best on your body
• Functionality: What is the ultimate purpose, desire of use of the bra
• Price: How much do you want to pay
• Size: Click on your bra size (you can calculate it here too or skip it) to find you results

Painless. Specific. And curtailed for you to get your own personal bras according to your body and needs!

This is one of Eve's favorite features on the online website. It's fun, easy and made for you! Click on Eve's Apples Bra Finder to get your basic t-shirt bra, sexy bra, or perfect bra today!

Enjoy!
