all things underthings • Manchester Vermont
Ah, weekends in June. I don’t have to tell you that they don’t just come together without a lot of preparation. Graduations, bridal showers, weddings, birthdays…we’ve heard all about them all this week! The shop has been abuzz with women needing this or that for special events. It’s been fun! Bring it on, summer. In […]
Anita is a company. It’s a brand (with a co-brand named Rosa Faia) that we’ve carried at the shop since Day 1. I can’t entirely remember who first told us about Anita, but when we were looking for bras to sell, Anita responded right away by sending Alice up to talk to us. Alice was, […]
It gets a little quiet around these parts during the week at this time of year. Sure, Martin Luther King weekend brought a lot of skiers and shoppers to town, but outside of that, this month of January can be a bit slow in Manchester. It’s a good time to come to the shop if you […]
In our continuing effort to help women find their joy from the inside out, the ladies of JOY are trying undies we carry in the store and giving our honest opinion. If you like what you read come on in and try your first pair for at a friendly discount! This style is by Wacoal […]
A blog by Julie. When I started at JOY in the spring of 2015, I just considered it a low-key part time job. At some point I assumed I would get back to doing what I did before moving to Vermont. It was what I studied in college and I had always loved my […]
Finding the right underwear is often more difficult than finding the right bra. “I’m looking for….”: A thong. Not a thong. A brief. Not too high on the waist. Not too high on the thigh. Higher on the thigh. Higher on the waist. Cotton. Lace. No lace. Silky. Boyshort. Girlshort. It goes on and on. […]
The shop turned three at the beginning of July. It feels every day of it. I mean that in the most grateful way possible. This helping-women-find-a-bra-that-works thing is really a real business. Everyday…and I mean every day the bra shop doors are open, we help women find their joy from the inside out. That’s our […]
…And now we are going to talk about something that I haven’t known how to talk about so basically I have ignored it. It’s personal, and private, and I’m fine with admitting that I’ve been a bit afraid to broach the subject with you. Thank goodness for Julie who has taken the bull by the […]
A woman who looked about my age walked into the bra shop and said she was looking for a shower gift. She explained that the bride was 52 and had really good taste. She asked if we carried a very expensive French brand that she knew her friend liked. I apologized that we didn’t and […]
Oh Joy! It’s President’s Weekend and Valentine’s Day too. Whether you’re après skiing or day tripping, Manchester has a whole bunch of fun (and warm) things to do. Of course, the shop will be open for bra buying and Valentining, but here’s some destination ideas if you’re in and around our little town this holiday weekend. […]
