I bloody love this. Bring on more writing from the heart, or the vulnerability, or whatever that is for you. Bras. I thought I'd discovered the perfect one from Lemonade recently - not an underwire in sight, only to have the metal hoop fastener on the strap dig into me when wearing a rucksack. Note to self, not a rucksack friendly bra. Maybe you need to get onto designing a crop top with a fastener?
Aww thank you! Haha. There are so many pitfalls eh. Lemonade have crossed my path recently too. I'd had my eye on them but good to know they are not rucksack friendly!
Growing up in India, most affordable bras were non-wired elastic bands. They were also non-padded. When I moved to Europe, I was surprised to see how difficult it was to find non-wired non-padded bras.
I am enjoying your writing, and also a lot of the topics that you are choosing to write resonate with me (childfree by choice, designer)
Yeah I think they have got more popular in the last 5 years or so with more brands popping up but before that they were fairly ugly and hard to find eh!
Really glad you’re enjoying my writing 🙂 thanks so much for following along.
Love this. Today, I'm wearing a top with a wide neckline and I initially put my strapless bra on, but I VERY quickly took it off because those things are uncomfortable AF! I immediately thought about writing a piece titled something like, "Someone please invent a comfortable strapless bra"... hahaha. Love this style of writing that you're trying. Keep it coming!
Aww thanks! Yeah I wrote this on my writing retreat. Felt good to get a bit more humour in there. And yes... strapless bras, don't get me started! Haha.
The notification for this popped up on my watch while I was running this morning. I actually sped up so I could get back to read it! 🤣 loved this, having a love/hate relationship with bras and boobs myself!
Having a fitting was (and is) such a weird experience, I never liked it. But did feel like some kind of necessary evil, there’s so much guessing with bras 🙈
