You can find me in the boutique from Tuesday - Friday from 10:30am - 4pm and some Saturdays as well. Please drop by and say hello, or better yet come for a bra fitting! As Catherine departs for some travels, the amazing Rachel will move into the assistant manager position. We are also adding a couple new faces to the Beestung team.

Beestung is in full bloom! Shake the winter from your wardrobe with gorgeous spring pieces from Lou Paris, Princesse Tam Tam, Elle MacPherson, and Hanky Panky.

Petillant, meaning “bubbly” in French, is the perfect way to describe this gorgeous Demi Cup from Lou Paris. Flirty scalloped edges, an unforgettable shade of jade, and impeccable fit are sure to inspire a spring awakening in your wardrobe. Available from A-E cup.

How we’re wearing it: Lou Paris is renowned for their perfect combination of wearability and design, making their sets both functional and fun. Let the gorgeous jade Petillante peek out of your blouse or wear it discretely under a camisole. 

 Princesse Tam Tam’s Confetti Balconette must have been inspired by springtime in Paris. Delicately detailed with light push-up, the dreamy grey Confetti is effortlessly Parisienne. Available A-D cup.

How we’re wearing it: Princesse Tam Tam is known for amazing fit and contemporary design. The soft grey of the Confetti Balconette works great as a neutral and the light push-up offers great shape under your favourite blouse.

Forget flowers, Elle MacPherson’s Magenta Dentelle is the sweetest part of spring. Dentelle lace and corset-fit-cups offer exceptional support and a boudoir- inspired fit that’s both functional and oh-so feminine. Make it a set with the matching Magenta panty for a boudoir statement. Available from A-F cup.

How we’re wearing it: Resist waiting for a special occasion to enjoy your lingerie. With a wide band and lace cups that lay smooth, fashion bras like the Dentelle are great for day-to-day wear. 

Hanky Panky is the queen of comfort and the Retro Bralette is no exception. Featured here in Pistachio, the sexy and supportive Retro pull-on bralette offers maximum support with structured cups, adjustable straps, and is made of the same signature lace we all know and love. 

How we’re wearing it: We love the soft support the Hanky Panky Retro Bralette gives our A-C cup clients. Whether you’re lounging, travelling, or a mom-to-be looking for comfortable support, this bra will put a spring in your step the whole day through. Pair it with the Pistachio Retro Thong for a vintage inspired set!

Spring Cleaning

What better way to celebrate the end of winter than to undergo a thorough spring cleaning of your lingerie drawer? Find out which pieces work, which ones don’t, and what’s in style this spring with a little help from the Beestung Girls.

The best place to start cleansing your lingerie wardrobe is by assessing the fit, style, and wear-ability of each bra. By doing so, you’ll be able to determine which pieces are in it for the long haul and which should be donated or put straight in the bin. Here are a few tips that will help your wardrobe reach its fresh new look painlessly and in no time at all.

Assessing The Fit

To assess the state of your lingerie drawer, start by trying on each bra and tossing out any that have lost their elasticity or look worse for wear.

• The underwire and center front gore should lay flat against your chest
• The cups should lay smooth, without gaping or spillage on the back or bustline
• The fabric should have a good amount of stretch in both the band and the straps
• The band should be snug along your ribcage for optimal support
• The bra should not ride up

We recommend purchasing a bra that is snug on the loosest hook-and-eye so that you are able to tighten up the band as it stretches with wash and wear. Once a bra is no longer supportive on the tightest hook and eye, it’s time to say goodbye.

When in doubt, come on in and let us see the bra on you. We’ll give you our honest opinion, adjust the bra for a better fit, and offer suggestions for prolonging the life of your bras in the future.

Fit Tip: If a bra is still in good shape but slightly too big or too small, tuck it out of the way at the back of your drawer. Bra size can change with just 5 lbs gained or lost, so a bra that is in good shape may be worth hanging onto.

Donate

Donate bras that you find uncomfortable or never wear but are still in good form. A great place to donate gently used items is your local women’s shelter.  

What Comes Next: Replenishing

By now you’ve discovered which bras you’re keeping, which are being donated, and which ones are way past their expiration date. The next step is replenishing the essentials and indulging in fun seasonal pieces.

• Basics: Your everyday basic bras are worn day-to-day, so they’re usually the first to go. A soft cup or contoured bra that matches your skin tone is great for invisible coverage under white, while a black or navy bra are versatile under everything but that plain white T.
• Strapless: Whether you have a bridesmaid dress, a bridal gown, or a strapless summer dress that you just couldn’t say no to, having a supportive strapless bra is an important part of every woman’s lingerie wardrobe. A wide band and a full coverage cup will ensure that your strapless stays up all night and offers a smooth, seamless line every time.
• Colour Play: Spring is all about colour, so why not invite some brighter pieces into your wardrobe? Lines like Princesse Tam Tam, Lou, Elle McPherson, and Stella McCartney are renowned for their gorgeous, supportive bras in colours that pop. Don’t be afraid of colour. As long as you’re not wearing a plain white T, anything goes!
