U Bra by Nude UnderwearThere’s a new bra sweeping Australia by storm, helping women feel more supported in the plunging necklines of the season. The cleavage world welcomes the U-Bra by Nude Underwear. Featured on Aussie TV and fashion forums internet wide the U-Bra is completely versatile, it’s U-shaped dip designed to be worn by low plunging tops and dresses, can be worn as a halter neck, low back or racer back bra.

Arianne on Edward in Brisbane lingerie shop owner, Robyn Corrigan, is the Australian Agent for the bar and says that the secret to the U-Bra is it’s cup support. “It sits the bust up beautifully with banding and the solid U shape. It does keep you slightly separated, but a lot more supported,” Robyn says. It seems to be a new essential piece to have in your underwear drawer!
I’ve ordered 2 U-Bras (one in black and one in nude - the only colours available so far) from Fantasy Lingerie. In fact there is such an overwhelming demand for the bra that their usual deliver time of 3 - 5 days is now up to a months wait! They promise it’s worth the wait, so when I get them I’ll road test them and let you all know!

Fan’s in the crown snatched up pink fleece blankets, throw pillows and stuffed dogs while watching a screening of “Pretty in Pink”.

Even though Ashlee is not Victoria Secret’s new spokesperson, she does love their new lounge wear collection.

“It represents a young, sassy, a more rock kind of girl,” Simpson said, “and I like to lounge around the house in that kind of stuff — booty shorts, boxers, cute little tanks. It’s what I would wear and what my boyfriend thinks I look cute in. I used to have pajama parties too — and I still do: All of us girls put on our pajamas and watch DVDs in the back of the bus.”

To top off the festivities, Jesse Metcalfe greeted fans on the red carpet.

How hot. I wish I were there.

You’ve been organizing decorations, flowers, cakes and more importantly THE dress. However, have you considered what is going underneath your dream gown? It may only be a small item but it’s essential to your big day! There’s many factors to consider as well, not just the material and style but if it’s going to enhance the look of your dress and be able to support you for the entire day - withstanding the length of the ceremony, photos and dancing!

Let’s not forget you’re first night as a married coupled! What style do you want to play on? Sweet? Sexy? Wild? There’s a whole range to suit every type of style out there. You’ve never seen white so innocent and racy at the same time!

Rather than all the cliche fancy garter belts, I looked around at what’s out there in terms of bridal lingerie, and I found something that I thought would be really special for your big day - the Personalize Rhinestone Babydoll and Thong. This beautiful chiffon babydoll available from A Little Lingerie Company has ribbon and lace detailing as well as underwire support. The best thing about it is that both items can be personalized with writing! “I love you”, “Just Married” or write your wedding date! If that’s not incentive to remember an anniversary, I don’t know what is!

Earlier this month the US Weekly reported that while picking out pink thongs at Victoria’s Secret with son in tow, she decided to change Sean Preston’s diaper on the floor next to the cash register.

A sales assistant apparently told Britney that they don’t have the cleanest floors, but she changed his diper and asked the sale clerk to dispose of it.

And in Victoria’s Secret too!

At least she isn’t looking too bad on the beach - we did take into account that she is pregnant again after all!
