Diamond Spotlight: LIVELY
Happy Friday, loves!!! To pick up my Diamond Spotlight series (I know, I’m such a slacker), I wanted to share with you a brand I’ve been following and dig in terms of their direction and mission.
This past Tuesday, I was invited by LIVELY to join them at their Baking With Your Bestie event held at Bird Bakery (if you’re in the Dallas area, their avocado toast is amazing). I happily said yes as I had been following their brand for a few months now and wanted to meet the team in person and see their products up close! I took Rachie with me so we could have some fun. And Sarah, if you’re reading this, I would’ve SO taken you too if you were here!
I met Ali, LIVELY’s marketing director (that’s her with me in the picture above), and she was so sweet! We talked about how the brand started, what their focus is and the kind of women that they want wearing their beautiful pieces. Their focus is on women who are hard working boss ladies that deserve to wear comfortable intimates. She is right. If a woman is working her tail off all day, on her body and her business, her sports bra has GOT to be comfortable. You ladies know what I mean!
Isn’t the set up at each table cute? Sorry, no pictures of my cookie decorating skills (there’s a reason why I’m not a baker; I’d SO lose on Cupcake Wars or any baking show for that matter, haha!) or of me and Rachie (we forget to take a selfie)!
I also asked Ali if they had plans on going into department stores and her answer proved to me that this brand is very thoughtful when it comes to their future. Ali said that they have no plans of expanding into stores as they want to be able to be in control of their brand.
She also extended an invitation to me (and Rachie) to come see her and the team next time I’m in NYC so I happily took her up on her offer!
After chatting with the girls at our table, Rach and I went over to look at their pieces and holy mackerel! Ladies, these are the softest bras ever! They really are soft as they look in these photos! Here’s a secret: I want these bralettes in every color!
We also checked out their regular bras (I loved this bra) and Rachel was floored when I told her they were $35/bra (undies are $10/pair)! For soft and comfy bras you can wear under everything while hustling? Sign. Me. Up!
Here’s another shot of the bralettes so you can see the color better. (Sorry if coloring is slightly off. The neon sign inside the bakery is pink.) They also have sizes for bigger busted ladies, swimwear and activewear!
All in all, we had a lot of fun meeting new friends, butchering our cookies with our decorating skills and eating too many Bird Bakery’s mini cupcakes. Oh and a big thank you to Bird Bakery for sending us home with cupcakes too! As a cupcake lover, their kind gesture was much appreciated!
Blazer: White House Black Market (style from this past Spring; loving this pink velvet blazer) | Tank: Zara | Leggings: The Limited (old; eyeing these faux leather leggings and these moto leggings) | Wallet: Chanel | Heels (old; want/need these black pumps) | Earrings: Kendra Scott (on major sale – under $40 from an original $75!)
I hope you ladies check out LIVELY because they are working to establish a different point of view when it comes to lingerie (they call it Leisurée) and I know they’re onto something good!

And that’s it for today’s post! Happy Friday, loves!
Have you heard of Lively before?
What do you think of LIVELY in terms of intimate wear?
Note: I followed LIVELY sometime over the summer because I love their brand and what they’re doing. I thought it was awesome that they invited me to their event when they were in Dallas. Please note that this post is NOT sponsored. I just wanted to tell you about a brand I genuinely like!
