Upon coming across a Bras for Hope breast cancer event at Belle Mode Intimates about six years ago and since I was a recent transplant, I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to get to know a small lingerie business. Meeting Belle Modeās lady boss, Ms. Nicole Martin was meant to be, her most professional disposition, wealth of knowledge and expertise, her hard-working team, patience and big heart lead me to want to come back and of course support her small business, and the most significant part is that since I happen to be blind, I do ask for just a bit more description to choose and decide exactly what I am getting when it comes to the cozy PJs, the various fashion colors of bras and my various options for mix and matching loungewear and Nicole has been the absolute greatest in describing and helping me transition into the coziest and softest goodies! Covid shutdown was a significant hit to everyone, including small business owners and I was ready to support Belle Mode Intimates and Nicole Martin. Nicole took the time to describe specific new Commando loungewear that she knew I would love and appreciate since I was now a virtual employee. Sometimes, we are hesitant to go to the store and get a new bra or do a bra fitting or try something new, well, you need not to fear at all because when you go to Belle Mode Intimates, it is just shopping with your girlfriends, it is an Experience versus asking for customer service. thank you, Belle Mode...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreMy first purchase were UGG socks that I layered in my non - UGG boots which made my feet happy ALL winterā¦..those socks saved my feet and my boyfriend bought me Christmas socks as a gift to wear every year from Hallmark because I couldnāt stop talking about my socks.
And then I moved up to Hanky Panky tanks that I wear so often I canāt wash themā¦.and then I got the CUTEST Grey flannels of dogs in tennis shoes that I wear every night to bed that look great with ankle boots for moments when I canāt change out of PJs but have to go outside.
Then I got slips to layer over opaque tights I wear layered under silk tops with a belt and feel comfortable and like I have in a designer dress with just a slip. Slips really should be slip dresses. I feel like I have on a comfortable party dress!
The owner has great taste and her work inspires me to try colors and looks I love. Itās a great location so I feel I can just pop on any time and see āwhatās newā. On a stressful day just a visit there clears my head and underwear therapy works.
Itās a great find and a classic store that has been in my home in Fairfax for years! Itās a timeless business that is always updating with the latest looks - great service and location and makes me feel ācome in and look around and call me when ur ready to ditch outerwear for underwear that you want to wear...

With the help of the lovely staff at Belle Mode, I came away with an armful of beautiful bras that supported me and gave me the confidence boost I have been sorely needing. I also appreciated the banter from the shop owner and the other woman working at the shop!
