Back fat, Breasts and Bras

posted: 16-Oct-2009

As it's breast cancer awareness month the lovely folks over at www.brastraps.ie are donating 20% of the proceeds from the sale of two Pink Bra Straps to the Marie Keating Foundation.

Which got me thinking about bras: do you own one to match every outfit? A strapless one, a nude one, a black one, a white one, a racer back one, a sports one.. Ugh. The list is endless, there are actually people in the world who do. Me? Nope! I buy my underwear based on pure desire! My last purchase was an eminently practical milk chocolate bra with turquoise lace from TK Maxx's excellent undie department, perfect to wear under, um, but it was sooo pretty.

Which brings me back to the Think Pink campaign sparkly bra straps, they're not totally my thing however even any alternative to those awful invisible straps, every weekend without fail you see some poor unfortunate who thought eureka!

See! You so don't want to be that person, okay, I know there are loads of things wrong with this look but the 'invisible' bra straps are just the icing on the cake.

So get thee to www.brastraps.ie and should nothing take your fancy pop over to Action Breast Cancer and give them a fiver. Ah go on!

Meet Jessie and Chupi – two of the hottest fashionistas in Ireland.

Chupi, 25, has something in common with Kate Moss – she has her own Top Shop label, while Jessie is one of the country’s best fashion journalists and editor of iVenus.com.

It’s not surprising that Jessie and Chupi share some common interests – they are cousins!

Every week they are going to be giving us the skinny on shop fashion, street fashion and all sorts of other insidery tips and observations.

Chupi spends much of her week in Top Shop in St Stephen's Green where she has her own label, Chupi. She was scouted by the British retailer when she was just 21.

And Jessie, spends her days talking to the top people in the business and sampling their latest products - lucky her - and analysing them.

You see, Jessie and Chupi. They just know stuff. And they’re going to share it with us. You can email them at jessiechupi@ireland.com
