Top 5 Reasons to Update Your Sports Bra

By Linda The Bra Lady on September 5th, 2012

 

Have you been watching the US Open? I caught a few matches and was really impressed – and not just with those cute twins, the Bryan brothers! I mean I was impressed with how great some of the women tennis players looked in their sports bras. However, there are always a few misses out there. In the photo above, the athlete to the right has left it to her sports top to control her breasts. Not working. While on the left, Ms. Williams gets ready for a massive hit, and her breasts are still in place! If you are ready to hit the court, you better make sure your sports bra is, too. And I don’t mean a loose fitting, over the head number, with no elastic left in it. Not convinced? Keep reading to find out my top five reasons to update your sports bra!

Fitter Favorites: The Panache Andorra

By Linda The Bra Lady on August 8th, 2012

Many times my fabulous bra fitters get asked “what bra are YOU wearing?” or “well, what’s your favorite bra?”. And though my girls always help you find the best bra for you, they love to share their favorite styles as well! I mean, after working with bras and boobs for so long, how could they not have a few personal favorites? First up: Kia! Kia is a great fitter with a lot of sass. She knows how to help you and she knows how to work those curves. Kia is a fan of Panache bras because they offer serious support in 34J without sacrificing on style. That’s right, she’s a 34J.  Take a look at how fabulous she looks, and read below to find out which amazing styles she is wearing!

Braducation tips: what’s a “normal” cup size for teens?

By Linda The Bra Lady on July 17th, 2012

School is just around the corner! It’s a great time to check in with your daughters and the young women in your life. Have things changed over the summer? And I don’t mean does she have a tan and great memories from camp. I mean, has her breast size changed? I know – this can be a pretty uncomfortable topic. I wrote a fabulous post (in my humble opinion) on helping your daughter buy her first bra, but what happens when she outgrows those bras? And more importantly, what happens if the little girl that you’ve raised suddenly has a more womanly figure … and is totally uncomfortable having it?

Below are my tips on the importance of “braducating” your daughter on what a normal cup size is and how you can help create a positive image of her changing body so she won’t spent her mornings taping down her breasts like Roberta in Now and Then.

Last Tuesday was our first ever Tasty Tuesday at Linda’s Lexington, and what a tasty evening it was! If you missed out on the free cocktails, yummy treats and bra fittings, here’s a few photos to get you up to speed. Some of our favorite customers stopped in for a re-fitting, brought a friend, or just said hi to our new manager and the staff! Lots of gals gobbled up our tasty treats (both healthy and sinful options) as well as the summery orange+cranberry+raspberry cocktail my Divas mixed up! There were lots of laughs, tons of girl talk, and some pretty amazing before and after bra make overs.

And keep an eye out  so you won’t miss out – maybe we’ll host another Tasty Tuesday soon!

Bra of the Month: Le Mystere Dream Tisha

By Linda The Bra Lady on July 12th, 2012

Remember when Oprah opened the women’s eyes to the importance of bra fitting? I sure do! She named the Le Mystere Dream Tisha as one of her favorite bras ever, and so did I. I have been fitting my customers in this bra for years now. You would think that its popularity would die down after a few years or new styles would come out to replace it, but the Dream Tisha has stuck around. Even with lots of new amazing styles out there, this still remains one of my most popular smooth, t-shirt bras for sizes 32C-44H!

Take a look at this amazing t-shirt bra and why it’s my latest Bra of the Month!
