Do Underwire Bras Cause Breast Cancer?

Bras / lingerie / Underwear - 6 weeks ago - admin

For years and years, women have long embraced the fact that bras are an essential part of their daily wardrobe. And why not? Bras are important because they provide comfort and keep our assets in shape. But of course, there will always be misconceptions and myths when it comes to wearing intimates. One popular myth would be that wearing an underwire bra can give you breast cancer.

An underwire bra has been debated by women everywhere. It has been said that its wire can press lymph nodes at the side of the breast, and too much will lead to a toxin buildup, which is a probable cause of breast cancer. A recent study does NOT show any evidence linking underwire bras to breast cancer. So don’t be afraid of wearing one– it’s clear that there are several other factors that lead to breast cancer, and wearing an underwire bra isn’t one of them.

Convertible Strapless Bras

Bras / lingerie / Underwear - 6 weeks ago - admin

A strapless bra is an essential to a woman’s lingerie collection. While we know that it’s best to wear them with elegant gowns that bare those lovely shoulders, you’ll be glad to know that they now come with strap hooks or gaps, so you can snap or place straps on your strapless bra to convert it into a different style.

We love this idea because of its practicality– we love the fact that we only need one convertible strapless bra to create so many bra styles to match every occasion! Some styles that you can do are of course, a regular strapped bra over your shoulders. Another one would be an “x” styled or a cross back style which is perfect for sport tank tops. Wearing halter tops are now made easy, if you use one strap on your convertible bra.

You’d be sure to have convertible strapless bras as your newest best friend.

Glen Ellyn Reopens Mum’s Lingerie Boutique

designer lingerie / lingerie / Underwear - 3 months ago - admin

A Glen Ellyn resident recently decided to reopen a lingerie boutique that used to be owned and managed by her mother. And when she was asked what compelled her to do so, she merely said, “It’s because of love.”

Located at one of the retail spaces along Main Street and Pennsylvania Avenue in Glen Ellyn, the lingerie shop is now owned by Kathryn Hudson. The shop was run by her late mother. Prior to the lingerie boutique, her mother owned a gift shop on that very same corner for about 15 years. The shop, Hudson said, helped the family so much. Her mother also dedicated so much time to the shop and that it was all a labour of love. The lingerie shop stood up until 1999 when it was sold because she wanted to retire. Later on, Hudson saw the boutique. It was closed.

“I wasn’t expecting how that was going to make me feel,” said Hudson. “So I decided to bring it back to life.”

Now, Hudson took the leap and reopened the lingerie shop, naming it “Knickers of Glen Ellyn.” She reopened it in the same downtown space.

Since then the economic outlook for small business owners became bleak and at times scary, but it’s the niche market her and her mother carved out that helped her stay afloat.

“An investment in a good bra is going to pay off in the end, so many didn’t want to go back, and go to a discount store and get a cheaper bra because they knew it wouldn’t be comfortable, and it wouldn’t look as good, and it would wear out faster.”

Lingerie & Nightwear Show Fiasco

lingerie / nightwear / sleepwear / Underwear - 4 months ago - admin

Road Trip Roadhouse and bar in Dover last month had a lingerie & nightwear show and two of the local bar owners faced jail time for putting on this show. Except this isn’t the first time the show has been done there.

Co-owner Susan Ferguson said it’s no different than it was three year ago and she had no idea she was doing anything wrong until the media asked her to respond to charges.

She said that they were blind sided. They had no clue that they had even had charges filed against them, she added.

She didn’t deny the fact that a lingerie show took place and says it was even advertised.

Ferguson said they’re in lingerie; and they have all the doors and windows covered. They also have somebody at the door carding. They didn’t let anyone under 21, in.

But there’s this one thing Ferguson says didn’t happen which was any nude dancing. Despite what Ferguson says, the Olmsted County Sheriff says the bar violated a city ordinance and that’s all that matters.

Two undercover officers who were monitoring the show approached her, after nearly 3 hours into the show.

Olmsted County Sheriff, Captain Bill Reiland said that they did wrongfully allow the display of less than completely and opaquely covered human buttocks and simulated sexual activities while dancing.

The complaint is pointing out one of the dancers that apparently pressed customers faces between her breasts while shaking them. And the same woman also gave a few lap dances.

If convicted, Ferguson could face a maximum of 90 days in jail, a thousand dollar fine, or both.

Ferguson said that people have had a very enjoyable time for three years. And they have never had a fight. They’ve never had any problems. She added that if there was a problem, officers or the city should’ve done something sooner.

Dover city council members have the authority to invalidate the bar’s business license. A constituent we spoke with says he doesn’t suppose that’s necessary but the bar should be punished.
