Celebs letting their bras peek out is nothing new, but when we saw photos of Chloe Sevigny and Zoe Saldana from Friday night’s Prada book launch wearing nearly identical outfits we had to pause for a minute. First, what is up with this bra exposing, open-and-tucked-in blouse. And second, how did…

Good afternoon, ladies. Welcome to my tale of torture. You are about to witness a terrifying ritual of masochism that involves a woman, her breasts and one very uncomfortable bra (say in Vincent Price spooky voice). Mu-ha-ha! About a year ago I purchased a new bra from a very famous lingerie…

Many women worry about their boobs sagging with age, and I've had several friends claim to sleep with a bra on, despite the discomfort, because they thought it would help help their breasts stay perky down the road. While it's never been proven that an overnight underwire yields more…

When Is It OK To Go Braless?

Now here’s a dilemma I’ve never had to worry about since l was 12 and grew size-C boobs one night in the middle of 7th grade: to wear a bra or not to wear a bra? See, even after breast reduction surgery when I was 19, I still can’t fathom actually going braless out in public. I rarely even feel comfortable enough to free-ball it the privacy of my own home (my boobs at 33 simply aren’t what — or where — they were 10 years ago). That isn’t to say I’m not a little jealous of women who don’t have to wear a bra. When I read that quote from Christina Applegate about the, uh, perk of going braless since getting implants after her double mastectomy for breast cancer, I thought, Well, at least there’s one upside! But then, I still have to wonder, just because a woman feels she can go braless, does that mean it’s appropriate?

I've been out of school for nearly a decade now, and, despite that gap, I still have traumatic memories of gym class. Back in Elementary school, twice a year we'd have a 'Fitness Test' that included sit ups, push ups, pull ups and the ubiquitous mile run. In middle school, the twice…

I wanted to post how to measure yourself to find your perfect bra size, because as much as we think we are one size, it's surprising that most of us are actually wrong!! All you need is a measuring tape! 1) Meaure the BAND Size by: measure around your bra directly under your bust. (Round all…
