By Kirsten

The summers Olympics are a combination of the greatest athletes on earth, tradition and culture. Whether fascinated with Phelps’ race for the Gold or the speed of Sandra Richard Ross. 

              

 Don your LITTLE BRA COMPANY Lucia Lace Push Up Bra, $54, above. The games started in Athens, Greece and were originally for amateur athletes to compete (naked) as a way to prevent warring among the city-states. Women were not allowed to even watch the games. In 1900, the first woman entered the game to compete.

     

           

Celebrate the games with an easy to make Olympic Cocktail.

The Olympic

1 1/2 oz. brandy

1/4 oz. triple sec

3/4 oz. orange juice

Dash of lemon juice

Shaken over ice and served in a cocktail glass 

Everyone will be racing for the refills!

Best in Bras

By Heather

This once uncomfortable and unattractive undergarment has been transformed into a piece of clothing that continues to reinvent itself year after year. From bright, vivid colors to bras that turn an A into a C without blinking, has become more than just that boring piece of underwear that you dread shopping for. The following trends are the best in bras for 2012:

 Mimi Holliday Blue Lagoon Sheer Push Up Bra & Panty

Push Ups

This trend began in bras and even continues to come in the shape and form of gel like chicken cutlets. Getting the “girls” to look as perky as they were when you were 20 is H-O-T. It may seem virtually impossible, but with the amazing breakthroughs in bra science today, you'll be shocked at how comfy the push up has become!

Sexy Lace Nicole Bra - Coming Soon to Eve's Apples

Colors!

Branch out from the whites, nudes and blacks ladies! Don't be afraid to grab that bright purple bra! Sure, you need a (nude) bra for that white T, but lime greens and hot pinks are the new black bra this year.

Mimi Holliday Whiskey Sour Padded Push Up Bra

Lace

Don't think your mom's 70's cream colored, thick stitched lace bra, we're talking about the sexy stark white, peep show lace that makes you feel like the gorgeous woman you are. These types of bras can also transition from underwear to outerwear, using the more conservative bras under sweaters and sheer tops.

Elizabeth Petite Sports Bra -Coming Soon to Eve's Apples

The New Sports Bra

Not just for the gym, the sports bra has been transformed into a comfortable, seamless undergarment that supports without shaping your chest into the dreaded uni-boob. With no underwire to cut into your ribs, the sports bra has become one of the most popular trends of 2012.

Lingerie Inner and Outerwear: Get Kate Winslet's Look

We know, Kate Winslet is just so darling. She was our Eve of the Month a few years back and is simply lovely in the Harper's Bazaare Magazine's November issue, 2011.

GET KATE'S LOOK!

Lingerie as Inner & Outer Wear - 1:
Pair a basic smooth cup bra (such as the Wacoal T-Back Bra or onGossamer Front Close J-Hook Bra) in black under a lacy top. The results are incredibly sexy.


Lingerie as Inner & Outer Wear - 2:
Try a black lace bra layered (such as Natori Sheer Lace Feathers Bra or Hanky Panky Signature Crossover Lace Bralette) under a sheer black top. It's the opposite of option one, is more understated but just as sexy.


Lingerie as Inner & Outer Wear - 3:
To create an alluring look with added cleavage, try The Little Bra Company Lucia Plunge Cleavage Bra.


For a sexier look, it's as easy as playing around in your closet or adding a few functional pieces that can take you from inner to outer wear.

Eve's Apples Online Lingerie Boutique Launch: Small Busted Women Deserve Beautiful Lingerie!

Small Busted Women Deserve Beautiful Lingerie!

Eve’s Apples announces the official launch of its online lingerie boutique (www.evesappleslingerie.com) dedicated to women with small breasts (bra sizes 28AA – 36B and 32C).

To celebrate the launch, for the month of January any purchase over $100 receives a FREE Cosabella “CUTIE” thong! (Promo Code: PNTY100LNCH -- while supplies last.)

Gayvin Powers, owner and founder of Eve’s Apples online lingerie boutique and Eve’s Apples Lingerie Blog (www.evesapples.blogspot.com), personally knows how hard it is to find a dependable bra that fits when you’re small busted.

Adult women with small breasts have different needs than young girls who are getting their first training bras. Yet, many adult women are stuck shopping in the tween department or buying bras similar to their first training bras. It goes without saying that traditionally small busted women have been exceptionally challenged when searching for a simple t-shirt bra, let alone sexy lingerie and lacy intimate apparel that make her look and feel her best, like a woman.

With a love of French lingerie, Gayvin handpicked domestic and European bras, in smaller cup sizes, that are high quality, give an exceptional fit as well as look and feel exquisite on a woman’s body. Eve’s Apples provides a variety of romantic, functional, comfortable and sexy bras for a woman’s needs. No more searching for bras in the tween department.

To accommodate women’s varying lifestyles, Eve’s Apples carries contour bras by Chantelle, push up bras by Huit, “Atlantis” the ultimate gel t-shirt bra by Panache, lacy bralettes by Eberjey, fun, flirty Blush lingerie, Cosabella’s extraordinary Talco bra (known as the “perfect yoga bra”), comfortable and sexy lingerie by Fleur’T and Keep Me, classic, sexy bras by onGossamer (adding up to a full bra cup size), petite bras by The Little Bra Company and demi cup bras by Timpa, just to name a few.

Bras are priced between $30 - $90, providing high-quality, everyday bras and sexy lingerie at affordable prices. Online, each product has additional product and brand information listed to help customers with a confident online purchase. Fun, interactive tools also aid in an easy shopping experience.

From the Eve's Apples Bra Finder (helping women find bras that suit their needs and breast type), to the Gift Finder, Videos, Wish List, Send an E-Card, Tips for Men and Advice section, shopping for small cupped bras and petite lingerie is finally an easy, fun online shopping experience. Whether a small busted or petite woman is interested in cleavage enhancing bras, adding a bra cup size, a sports bra, soft cup bras without underwire, or lacy bralettes, Eve’s Apples has a bra that suits her needs, personality and helps her look and feel her best.

To shop, or for more information about Eve’s Apples online lingerie store, visit the Eve’s Apples lingerie website at http://www.evesappleslingerie.com.

The red lace bra (above center) is the Mad Love push up bra by Blush ($42), and comes with a matching sheer, lace bikini.

Happy New Year & Exclusive Lingerie Video

Happy New Year, my dear Lingeristas!

We've been counting down the days until the New Year and for the anxiously awaited online lingerie boutique. While we've been knocking out all of the bugs and glitches for a smooth launch, our excitement of bringing you something truly special has us wanting to celebrate early with you.

In anticipation of the launch and in celebration of a NEW YEAR, we're sharing with you a sneak preview of our Eve's Apples Behind the Scenes Video: Winter 2010 ~ Part 6. This video is from our first ever photo shoot.

The Eve's Apples lingerie boutique is specializing in small cup sizes (28AA - 36B and 32C). Monica, our lingerie model in the video, wears a size 32B bra and looks utterly stunning. Remember, small busted women deserve beautiful bras and lingerie.

Watch it and see the magic!

Merry Christmas, Lingeristas!

Merry Christmas to all of our dear, Lingeristas!

The following are some Christmas quotes that feel timeless and classic.


"Christmas is the season for kindling the fire of hospitality in the hall, the genial flame of charity in the heart." ~ Washington Irving

"It is Christmas in the heart that puts Christmas in the air." ~ W.T. Ellis

"Even as an adult I find it difficult to sleep on Christmas Eve. Yuletide excitement is a potent caffeine, no matter your age." ~ Carrie Latet
"Blessed is the season which engages the whole world in a conspiracy of love!" ~ Hamilton Wright Mabie

"Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen." ~ Author unknown, attributed to a 7-year-old named Bobby
Images on this post are of Monica, our delightful Eve's Apples lingerie model, who will be gracing our website launching on New Year's Day, January 1, 2010!

Monica showed up to the shoot, wearing an ill-fitting bra and thinking that she was a 36A. After getting her fitted, she was thrilled to see that she's a 32B and looks gorgeous in everything we put her in during the shoot! It wasn't long before she was "Celebrating Her Inner Eve." She looks so spectacular in this red Lucia Plunge Bra (top image) and matching lace boyshorts that I had to send her home in it!

Last year, we had a contest for one lucky winner of this red Lucia bra and panty set by The Little Bra Company. It was the biggest contest turn out still to date! If you like this lingerie set, you can find it on New Year's Day on our new online lingerie boutique dedicated to smaller busted women (bra sizes 28AA - 36B and 32C).

Monica (in the second image) is wearing a white Retro India Bralette by Eberjey. Both panty sets can be found on our lingerie website (http://www.evesappleslingerie.com/) on January 1, 2010.

Have a wonderful holiday, my dear Lingeristas!
