Eberjay and Ann

I am always on the look out for the Holy of Holies in underthings; smooth, comfortable and undetectable fit under clothes but pretty and sexy too. But until mesh lace arrived on the scene, most lingerie drawers were divided firmly into two distinct camps. In one corner- utility. Flesh colored and unadorned bras and pants for smooth lines under clothes. And in the other corner, the lacey intrigue of 'date night' bras and panties trimmed with little bows and rosettes ( not so smooth under clothes, but who cared?)

Thanks to lines like Eberjay, who claim the invention of the stretch mesh lace boyshort and who produce stretchy but shaping bras, suddenly we could have it all. So imagine my delight when I happened upon Bluebird by Eberjay- a new capsule collection sold only at anntaylor.com. Bralets, boyshorts and briefs in black or a pale ballerina pink that are well priced, fit well, and are altogether sexy.

A style note: Still wearing a thong? Upgrade and improve the view. There isn't a girl going who does not look better with the molding, shaping support of a boyshort or brief to boost her backside. Wide lace banding at the leg (as seen on the styles above) helps avoid the look of a Sunday roast packed into your J. Brands. And if you have never tried a seamed bralet, perhaps it's time. Wide lace banding below the hooks smooths out any bra roll.

Mac says... Yes, but sadly they don't come in XL... when will retailers start selling delicious clothes for the 40% of us (or thereabouts) who are size 16 and larger?!
