Last-Minute Halloween Costumes at Yandy.com

Halloween has crept up on us, with just a few days away to come up with a costume or get those last-minute accessories. This is the first time I've been introduced to Yandy.com, the leading lingerie and costume online store which also has dresses, shoes, swimwear and accessories. Even men's costumes are available. You can find your favorite costume for under $100, from superhero, cosplay, vampire, fairytale, flapper, medievel costumes and more. Some of my favorite costumes include the Egyptian Goddess, 1920s Stunning Flapper, Victorious Warrior, Sexy Red Coat Military, Sexy Grey Bunny, and Royal Queen of Hearts. You can even add to or upgrade a costume you already have. I already have a Wonder Woman costume, but Yandy has Wonder Girl boots that I would love to wear with it. 

Even if it's the smallest size, I always worry about the fit of the costume. But since Yandy has a sexy fit, I expect the XS or S sizing of their costumes to fit perfectly. Yandy has such a large assortment of products - you may end up finding items you need for a special event or occasion throughout the year, like a bustier or corset, hosiery or masquerade masks. I've also noticed Yandy has sexy lingerie at very reasonable prices, with bras at $19.95 or less. 

Halloween is the perfect time to discover Yandy.com, and still get your last-minute costume shipped to you by October 30th.

INTIMACY {bra fit stylists} Fifth Avenue Store Launch

On Thursday, August 14th, I stopped by the new INTIMACY {bra fit stylists} store at 104 Fifth Avenue at 16th Street in NYC for their grand opening. This Fifth Avenue flagship is the third INTIMACY in the city and specializes in bra fit styling sessions and features premium European designers in lingerie, shapewear and swimwear styles. The 1,228 square foot space is located in the Flat Iron District, complete with nine fitting rooms to accommodate more shoppers. 

After a quick tour, I had my first personalized bra fit styling session at INTIMACY. This isn't one of those quick bra fittings where they use a measuring tape to fit you. After telling my Bra Fit Stylist, LisaMarie, my U.S. bra size and the styles of bras I usually wear, she came back with several bra styles for me to try on. My favorite styles ended up being by Marie Jo, detailed with exquisite floral embroidery. LisaMarie then brought over the matching underwear styles. My top choice ended up being the Axelle set by Marie Jo in Jewel Green, which is right on-trend color for fall. This was also the first time I tried on European bras, which were extremely comfortable and seemed to fit just right. I also learned what my U.K. sizing is! Thank you to LisaMarie and the INTIMACY team!
