Ok ladies!  It’s been a week since my “New, New Years Resolution”.  Have you thought about what special something you are going to do for yourself this week?  If not, here is an idea for you!

This week I did something that was simple and easy.  I have been fighting it for a long time, but this week, I bit the bullet.  I did it and I feel so much better!

I bought a new bra.

Simple right?  But oh, what a change!!   The girls are lifted and separated.  I didn’t think it was going to make this much of a difference. I really don’t know why I waited so long.  It made no sense.  A bra is something I wear every day and I had not purchased a new bra since…umm…. I am really embarrassed; it has been over a year!  What is wrong with me?  Why do I do this to myself?  No one was suffering but me!

Here are the two bra’s I bought:

First of all, both bra’s are on sale right now, score!  Secondly, my blouses look better, my posture is better, and it was more than worth it.  You know what’s the best part? I don’t dread putting on my bra everyday like I used to.  Before I was constantly tugging, pulling and adjusting my bra.   And I could not wait to take it off when I got home!

Paying more for a bra is totally worth it.  Ladies – don’t wait like I did.  Do it today, buy a couple of quality bras that fit and build from there.

My new commitment?   Buy one every 2 months.  That is 6 new bras by the end of the year.

Life is too short to wear an old, ill fitting, ugly bra.  A bra is not an extravagance.   It is a necessity.

Go out to a department store or get online and buy a new bra today!

Remember – don’t wait for a special occasion to buy a new bra; TODAY is a special occasion!

P.S. If anyone needs help figuring out what bra size they are, feel free to call one of our lingerie consultants at 800.220.8878.  They helped me find the right size!

Well ladies, Winter is quickly approaching! We have had our Halloween fun (oh what fun it was! Especially with sexy H&C costumes galore in the office), we’ve set the clocks back, and we’ve had our fill of Thanksgiving (literally). We’ve put our shorts in the closet and pulled out our jeans and sweaters (well, I am in Cali- winter coats may be a bit too much). 

Every Fall/Winter it happens to me.  Those of you on the East coast may think that a West-Coast-Winter is nothing to worry about, but when we go from 100 degrees straight into a 50 degree evening I am desperate to rummage through my closet for some warm snuggly pajamas and a nice comfy, cozy robe.  And I think that no matter where in the country (or world!) you are, there just isn’t much that beats the feel of cozy jammies and a soft, warm robe.  Just picture it, a comfortable long sleeve night shirt or cuddly oversized wide neck tee and a luxurious robe wrapped around you as you sit in front of the fire sipping warm apple cider or some indulgent hot cocoa.  Heavenly idea, right??

And to my glee, what do I see on HipsandCurves.com this season?  New comfy oversized tees, soft snuggly shawl robes and the most adorable and soft ruffle wrap robe! I am ecstatic.  I know what you’re thinking; I am a cheese-ball. It’s silly to be so excited over comfort.  Who really cares about sleepwear?  Say what you will, but honestly nothing gets me quite like cozy jammies.  They are my addiction.  I can’t even tell you how many pairs of PJ’s I have.  And don’t even get me started on slippers… *giggle*

So, with much pleasure and joy, I recommend a close look at our new robes, tees and sleep shirts, as they will certainly warm your heart (and body!) this winter.  I am thinking of going as far as to revisit the idea of pajama Fridays at the office.  I wonder if I can get the gals to join me in the cozy comforts of a super-casual Friday?

We love Beyonce and all her gorgeous curves!  She was red hot at the MTV Europe awards sporting a pair of sexy cuban heel stockings!  We love that bit of red peeking out from her peep toe pumps!
