Tired of wearing bras that never seem to fit? Part of the reason could be that you are unwittingly buying fakes. Unorganized sector with a lot of cross-selling can result in you really needing a 34A actually walking off with a 32B instead.
Cotton
Avoid the cotton is a ‘healthy’ cliché. Super soft lingerie in breathable micro fiber fabrics rules the racks as opposed to the traditional cotton varieties. Cotton soaks up the sweat and holds it close to the skin, whereas the new materials available today absorb body moisture and breathe it out.
Diaphanous Top
Showing off a bra is an art in itself. Acquire this skill. While a matching bra and camisole can double up as a great outwear option, a transparent top worn over a printed bra would test your adventurous side to the limit. Go for it; be proud of wearing this accessory.
