Spring Break, Spring Cleaning

It is the time of year for Spring Break. My daughter is on a vacation from school, college kids are traveling to sunny beaches, the air even feels a little bit different. It is also a good reminder to do some Spring cleaning. So, while you’re searching out and destroying the dust bunnies under your bed, why not clean out your lingerie drawer?

Here is the rule of thumb… For every new bra you buy, you should toss one of your old, tired bras. Because our bras are the hardest working item in our wardrobes, they do have a shelf life, and you should be replacing them every 6 months to one year.

Hopefully you were able to stock up on some new bras at our annual Winter Clearance Sale. Or maybe this serves as a reminder to toss a few of those bras that have stretched out and come replace a few.


If you feel bad tossing your worn bras in the garbage, we happily accept donations of gently worn bras for the Gathering Place, where we do monthly bra fittings for women in need. www.the-gatheringplace.org


Happy Spring!
