Is It Time To Buy A New Bra?

Bras are expensive, so sometimes, buying new ones can not only be healthy for your breast, great for your style, but also a financial commitment.

Here are some reason you may need to buy a new bra.

The first is an upcoming special occasion. Sometimes an all white summer party or a wedding leaves us running to the store looking for a bra that will fit correctly. If you find yourself unable to wear clothing because of a bra; it’s time to buy a new one. Everyone woman should own at least one convertible bra that's able to fit under more than one type of clothing.

The second reason you may need a new bra is pregnancy. Pregnant women can grow up to 3 cup sizes in a few trimesters. Unfortunately, support is the main factor if you are pregnant...however underwires can be uncomfortable. Understanding what's comfortable for you will help you decide which new bra you may need

The third reason you may need a new bra is fit. If the bra you are wearing right now doesn’t fit you correctly and you are constantly adjusting it, go and get fitted properly, or do it yourself. It's worth it in the long run and when you bra is off your mind you'll be surprised at how free you feel.

The fourth reason you many need a new bra is shape. If you go into the store and try on a bra that is the same size and style as your bra, but fits and supports you better, it's time to buy a new one. Your old bra is worn out and is not as supportive or elastic as it used to be.

Lastly, you may need a new bra for a new look. Posture feeling slouchy? Tops not buttoning correctly? You didn't gain weight! Your bra may just be the wrong one. A new bra can actually increase your posture and give you a new look in no time.

If you need a new bra, try MySkins. MySkins sells seamless bras and pantis in 20 skin matching colors.

Bra Horror Monday: Why You Need a Nude Bra

Today's Bra Horror Monday consists of a woman who should have been using our product or should have been reading our blog. She decided to wear a dress without a bra because she couldn't find a bra to wear under that particular dress that didn't commit a fashion faux pas.

So...she decided to go commando, and let’s just say, that by the end of the night, everyone knew what was under that dress:

“I have what can be termed an ‘ample’ chest! I also have an amazing dress that I love to bits. However I have never been able to find a bra that fits under that dress. You can either see the bra straps or the bra front. So, to wear the dress I must wear it bra-less, which as you can imagine, is flirting with danger! So .. on one particular occasion, my husband’s parents were over from England. My husband’s father is a fit, elderly, man and loves to dance. This particular occasion we were dancing together .. myself in my gorgeous dress ….. and yes, I fell out. Both of them! In front of my father in law ….. and N O-ONE told me!!! So there I was .. boogying down on the dance floor, showing my father-in-law the assets that attracted his son! I was horrified! And if that’s not a bra horror story, I don’t know what is!! - LS”

This is the typical story among women who won't wear a dress they love or play with danger to wear it because they don't have a bra that works. We suggest a MySkins convertible bra...not only does it come in 20 Skin matching colors, but it also can change to fit under any dress!

Your Bra Should Be Your Favorite Summer Accessory

Not only do you have to wear your bra every day, whether to the office or out on the town, it also has to fit along with your fashion style. If you are professional our bras are perfect under your everyday attire, additionally, if you are a fashionista, our bras provide you with the ability to wear the latest fashion trends with confidence.

Two hot trends this summer can fit seamlessly with your MySkins’ bra. The first is the sheer fashion trend which has been hitting runways around the globe since 2008. Sheer tops and dresses can be seen on celebrates and models alike, but it's also been incorporated into the latest designers ready to wear lines. Your MySkins’ bra can work perfectly under sheer clothing because not only does it match your skin tone for invisibility, but it also provides wearers with comfort and support for confidence to work the latest styles without worrying about falling out of your clothes; and creating your own personal embarrassing moment.

To incorporate the sheer look into your wardrobe we suggest the plunge bra because you can wear with peak a boo or low cut blouses while it matches your skin tone for the ultimate in sheer fabulousness.

Another great trend this summer is the one shoulder dress, especially like the one Michelle Obama wore during the inauguration of her husband and our President, Barack Obama. The one shoulder dress is only as good as your bra! A great convertible bra, like ours, is essential for making the most of this stunning look.

Wearing The Right Bra 101

Like panties, as we discussed Tuesday, when looking for a bra to wear under different tops and dresses there are different styles and different purposes for each bra. This guide will take you through choosing the right bra and what tops to wear them with.

Under Your Favorite White T-Shirt


T-Shirt Bra: The t-shirt bra is best for everyday wear and comfort because it disappears under your clothing and prevents nipple show-through. However, the best advantage of a t-shirt bra is that it is made without a raised seam so it can appear invisible when worn under a body fitting t-shirt. The MySkins t-shirt bra is perfect for those who long for an amazing bra to wear under a fitted shirt without the risk of visible bra lines, lumpiness or discomfort.

Under Your Favorite Summer Blouse




Convertible Bra: A convertible bra offers a number of possibilities. Hence the name, the straps on our convertible bra can be arranged in five different styles traditional, one-shoulder, criss-cross, halter, and strapless. The MySkins convertible bra is an excellent choice for women who want variety under a number of styles. Perfect for Grecian one shoulder dresses, halter-tops, tube dresses and more.

Under Your Favorite Sexy Summer Dress

Plunge Bra: A plunge bra is the perfect support for daring outfits. The cups are cut to give you some support, great coverage and maximum exposure. The MySkins plunge bra is amazing for women who want to wear low cut shirts or gowns without the risk of a visible bra or the discomfort of tape.
