Bravissimo Boob School & the Seven Bra Faux Pas

 

Bravissimo has launched the world's first Boob School in a bid to help women find the perfect bra size. Bravissimo did some research and found that some women have not been fitted in over four years! No wonder there are so many faux pas happening out there.

Our boobs change and a fitting is essential in having good boob health.  Don't be embarrassed about having a fitting as this is what the staff do in Bravissimo stores.

Yours are not the first pair of boobs they have ever seen and they won't be the last, so get them out girls!

The research Bravissimo did found seven bra faux pas that need to be remedied ASAP!

Seven Bra Faux Pas

1. The Side Boob - wires in the cup sitting on your boob rather than your ribcage

2. The High Rider - the back of the bra riding up

3. The Quadraboob -bust spilling over the top of the cup, giving the impression of four boobs

4. The Big Stand Off - the front of the bra doesn’t sit flat on the sternum

5. The Super Drooper - not enough support, saggy boobs

6. Saggy Cups - too much fabric creating wrinkly cups

7. The Ledge - over uplift, transforming your boobs into something that resembles a ledge


The research revealed that four in every five UK women admit to regularly experiencing at least one of the seven bra faux pas, all of which are a result of wearing badly fitting bras.

The study also showed that 24% of UK women admitted to never having a bra fitting and 21% haven’t been for a fitting for at least four years.

The bigger your cup size the more likely you are to be making a bra paux pas.

The Boob School is there to educate women about their boobs and give them advice on what they should be looking for to have a perfectly fitting bra by following their simple lessons online, via the Facebook app, or in store.

Women in wanting to enroll in Boob School should visit Facebook or Bravissimo Boob School or one of their 21 stores in the UK.

Sensational Summer Swimwear at Bravissimo!

Yes Bravissimo has released some sensational summer swimwear. Try saying that three times fast!

I love the bright colours on the Pippa Bikini by Cleo which is a new style from Cleo's new swimwear range.

It has a retro boat print with a vibrant coral and blue colour with some sunny yellow beaming through. If this doesn't get you noticed on the beach nothing will!

I so want to try the tiny little side tie bikini bottoms which are exclusive to Bravissimo and pictured above. I am worried about my jelly belly and curvaceous behind getting a little tooooo much exposure!

Just note the cups are lightly padded to help with shape and support.

Available in sizes 6DD - 16H (38DD-38H).

I ordered the Gingham Girl Bikini by Bravissimo  the minute I saw it. How cute is it and I just love the shorts. Crazy about this.

This 50's inspired bikini is so Marilyn Monroe. It is a plunge style but when you've got it flaunt it and what better bikini to do it in than this. The red gingham is so sexy.

I am so biased I absolutely love it. I hope I look as good as the model above when I am wearing it. Or even better dazzling like Marilyn. Can't wait.

Hmm I hope those tassels on the front don't get in the way when I am photographing underwater. I love to snorkel and photograph everything. I am sure I will be fine. Worst comes to worst I will cut them short or just take it off. I doubt it will subtract from this gorgeous bikini.  Go Bravissimo!

Available in sizes 8E-18J (30E - 38J.)

Tango Balconette Bra by Panache in Lemon Sorbet!

There are some gorgeous new colours and styles available at Bravissimo in their new Summer range. I am madly in love with the new colour of the Tango Balconette Bra which is Lemon Sorbet and exclusive to Bravissimo!  

I own the Tango in hot pink and soon this gorgeous lemon. How can I say no. I am sure it will sell out fast, what a great colour. I am not going to procrastinate this time and miss out.

I love the light multi-colours of the embroidered flowers and that lovely yellow colour is to die for. And those thin straps are perfect. So sexy. I also love that little yellow bow in the middle of the cups. So cute.

The Tango bra is also available in a plunge. 

Available in sizes 6E - J and 8J - 18K. (28E - J and 30DD - K)

God bless those sizes. Brings a tear to my eye :)

Brastop Valentine's Day Gifts

Brastop has some great Valentine's Day Gifts and Ideas in their Valentine's Day Gifts shop. It's a one stop shop for anyone looking for something sexy for their loved one. 

I really liked two bras from the Valentine's Day Gifts shop. The first one is the super sexy Curvy Kate Tease Me  bra in Cherry & Blush.

It is a padded bra in seductive cherry red, overlaid with intricate contrast lace mesh for a very glamorous look. It so reminds me of the Moulin Rouge. Very French.

Tease Me also has embroidered lace detailing and stunningly simple cream ribbon to contrast the super sexy cherry red. Available in limited sizes 6D- 16F (28D-38F).

The other bra I love is the wonderfully bright and playful Curvy Kate Lottie Raspberry Bra. 

It is a satin bra with a panel of sheer pink mesh across each cup topped with gorgeous pink embroidery and the sweetest pink bow in-between the cups.

 I really love the pink straps and the floral print in vivid pink hues is just divine.  Available in sizes 6D-18K (28D - 40K).

Hope you have a very Happy Valentine's Day.

New Bra Styles at Bravissimo

I love the new bra Betsy Bow Bra by Bravissimo.  Those polka dots are so cute and I love the vintage  50's inspired balconette style. The cups have a scalloped edge and I really love the black and cream bows printed along the top of the cup.

The contrasting purple bows are really sweet too.  I also really love the cream colour. It's such a wonderful design. All aspects come together beautifully.

Available in sizes 28F - 38K.
