Rave - extra special summer bra!

I certainly am the type to get excited about a well designed bra.

 For the past year, my true love has been the Sexy Shaping Full Coverage T-Shirt Bra from Chantelle.

This bra was a bestseller for all shapes and sizes, mostly due to its excellent construction including the wide, flattering band and the pretty, lace covered cups.

However, we have a new contender from Wacoal. The Basic Beauty Spacer T-Shirt bra is easily a winner across the board and is ideal for the summer. The size range is impressive, and the stretchy fabric is soft and comfortable while the engineering sets a new standard in support.

Basic Beauty

Spacer cups are based around a honeycomb design - two lightweight layers held apart by strong yet flexible filaments - allowing the air to flow through and creating a breathable contour cup. Even though it feels weightless, the silhouette is lifted and always smooth.

Kicked-in straps complete this ideal design - the straps are angled slightly in a "Y" shape to resist slipping off the shoulders. The overall experience is based in comfort and security


Along the same vein, Wacoal also did an amazing update of their Halo Lace. Any bra with inifinity straps and a J-hook is a thoughtfully designed bra! The delicate lace is another wonderful fabric for this hot and humid summer.

And if we cannot tempt you with construction and science, another spacer cup by Wacoal is the Lace Embrace Contour in Purple Cactus- such a pretty color you won't be able to resist.

Update your lingerie wardrobe with smart buys and pretty colors - see you soon!

Moisture-Wicking Sleepwear

Haralee's "Melissa" Set

Haralee's "Melissa" Set

In our last blog post regarding hot flash pajamas we defended man-made performance fabric against the big contender - Cotton. While we continue to carry lightweight, breathable and beautiful cotton nightgowns and robes, the performance fabrics have maintained their popularity to the point that we have expanded our selection!

Haralee "Susan" Chemise

Haralee Sleepwear has a silkier feel than our other options, as it is made of 100% moisture-wicking polyester. The fit is loose and comfortable, barely perceptible as it slides over your skin. Easy loungewear on these humid days and feminine, attractive nightwear that expertly wicks away sweat to contribute to a great night's sleep.

As well as assisting with the comfort of your body, Haralee is a brand we are proud to carry as each garment is made in the United States, and a portion of each purchase supports the research to find a cure for breast cancer. 

Softies Long NightGown

Softies Dress

For glowing colors and the feeling of irresistible luxury, Softies by Paddi Murphy has some exciting new designs that just arrived in the store! The soft, touchable knit fabric not only wicks away sweat but also neutralizes odors and inhibits bacterial growth. These properties are built into the actual fabric - not sprayed on - so the performance will continue for the life of the garment. And especially the dress with drawstring waist is so adorable you will be tempted to wear it all the time, not only at bedtime.

Softies Long NightGown

If you are experiencing hot flashes due to menopause, pregnancy, chemotherapy, diabetes or if you are simply overheating in this incredible June weather - come see us at Jo Karen and let us help you into a cool night's sleep!

See you soon!
