Bear with me on lack of pictures/crappy pictures for current posts… as mentioned on Twitter, I just have a halfway broken camera and a cell phone to work with currently 😛 The other two Curvy Kate bras I received in my last package besides the Tease Me were the Portia and the Angel bras, both Continue Reading
I recently received my Brastop order of 4 different bras (3 Curvy Kate, one Panache), so more reviews will be coming after this! After hearing so much about Curvy Kate’s Tease Me bra (and the similar Thrill Me and Tempt Me of their Showgirl range), I knew I wanted to try it out for myself. I was Continue Reading
Great news for those of us who may need a band sizes smaller than 28 – it seems to be confirmed through their respective Facebook pages that both Panache and The Big Bra Bar.com will be offering a 26-band bra in the near future! The Big Bra Bar will be piloting a set in a Continue Reading
I was 19 when I first started trying to figure out my correct bra size. Not long into my quest, I’d occasionally I’d have friends ask things like, “Why does it matter? Why can’t you be okay with the “sister size” thing, or something “close enough”?” As the search got more and more frustrating, I Continue Reading
A quick rant: I may find it hard – nay, at times extremely difficult – to find bras in a 28 band (and a larger cup). I admit it was with some despair that I came to terms with the fact that I needed a 28 instead of a 30 band, effectively cutting down my Continue Reading
If you’re an “odd” bra size, you’re probably used to feeling left out. Maybe you’ve given up expecting to find your size in stores at all. If everyone was wearing the correct bra size, I think this would be a more common problem… after all, there are somewhere in the range of 96 possible bra Continue Reading
In September, I got my first “new” bra in a long time – the Cleo Poppy bra (from a Bravissimo store, no less!). I usually steer away from Panache/Cleo bras, so I was surprised that I loved the fit when I tried it on. The shape is great, although I must admit I still slightly prefer the Continue Reading
Cream tea: Tea served with a scone that’s topped with butter, jam, and clotted cream. I make scones at home from time to time, but as clotted cream is pretty much impossible to get in the States, I was excited to have cream tea in the UK whenever an occasion arose. Cream Tea #1: Patisserie Valerie in Continue Reading
Summer is a great time for some Science Fiction reading, don’t you think? These are some of the books I’ve read or am reading for a summer course (20th Century Science Fiction). I’ve always been a lover of the Science Fiction genre, but it’s nice to have a very specific slice to be reading and Continue Reading
Fashion-associated terms have always confused me. The media delights in assigning all women into a few specific categories – pear, triangle, apple, hourglass, rectangle – and then telling them what they look good in based on their shape. image from thebarbertoo.com One of the terms in particular has always confused me: “hourglass figure.” Most of Continue Reading
