It's too hot in the summer to wear panty hose. I have a black pair that I wear with a plaid skirt but that's it. If I can get my legs a little tanned, I never wear them. I think some man must have invented them.

I wear a minimizer bra. Have to pack "the girls" in tight.

A French woman named Herminie Cadolle was the genius behind the cups and straps. Cadolle came up with the concept in 1889, originally dubbing it the "corselet gorge." Her creation premiered at the Great Exposition in Paris and was a smash with the ladies, propelling the budding entrepreneur into a life-long career in lingerie.

Madame Cadolle led a pretty amazing life. She was a very successful businesswoman in a time women rarely worked outside the house. Cadolle set up shops in Argentina and brought over the best French seamstresses to train her staff. She traveled the world, outfitting the rich and famous, while watching her business grow into a bust-ling enterprise. The company still exists today as Cadolle Lingerie.

We bet that's one secret Victoria didn't know.

i not a fan regarding bras but they are necassarie for comphort....and like di i would love and seek reducing meens for the puppies...

they seem more restrictive in the summer but proberlie scare less people when wearring one than not lol.

I am small ...like a teenager (well, some teenagers..)so to fork out lots of money for a bra is nuts to me. But probably with aging, it's a blessing in disguise. Little women never truly know the benefit, until after 40 or so...

The good thing is that there is a much more diverse range of styles and fabrics for bras, compared to 20 years ago. MOre choice but hopefully at competitive prices is always a good thing.

wearing pantyhose doesn't bother me unless it's over 85 degrees F. I wear my skirts and dresses a few inches above the knee because I am short -5'1" and petite, wearing a low stacked heel dress shoe.
