About Cora

A Brief History Of The Lingerie Addict:
In April of 2008, The Lingerie Addict was born in a small apartment in Atlanta amidst an ever-growing collection of stockings and knickers. The blog originally filled a niche for me personally: I’d searched all over the internet for a lingerie site that helped women on a budget find lingerie that they would love. After coming up empty, I finally decided to create that space myself. I wanted to create a place that was loving, inclusive, and empowering to women all over.

My name is Cora Harrington (though for the last 4 years, I’ve blogged under the penname Treacle Tart), and when I started this blog I was working full time as a crisis counselor. After four years, I’m a full time Lingerie Addict, and my little blog has become a business. The Lingerie Addict is holding steady as the number one lingerie blog worldwide, and I recently received my one-millionth visitor.

In 2011, I expanded my range of services. Along with advertising opportunities, I now offer a wide range of social media consulting services for the discerning lingerie brand or boutique. I’ve spent the last year jump starting social media campaigns for lingerie businesses, helping brands tell their story, and of course blogging about all of my new (and old) lingerie loves.

The landscape of my life has changed tremendously in four years, and I’m grateful for it every day. Not many people get to wake up and throw themselves into something that they are passionate about, and I’m aware of how lucky I am. I couldn’t have done it without all of my readers, advertising partners, and everyone who had faith in me even when I didn’t. Thank you.

Welcome to The Lingerie Addict. I hope you’ll love it here as much as I do.

Yours in lingerie love,
Treacle Tart
