The Winkee Has You Covered – Literally!

Long ago were the days when a plunging neckline was frowned upon in society. Today, many of us make a living out of flaunting the girls, and some of us may even resort to paying for the extra cleavage - just look at Pamela Anderson and all of Hugh Hefner’s lovely ladies.

But, if you are one of those ladies who likes to avoid tops that are too revealing or needs to cover up in a professional work environment, a new product called The Winkee may be a good solution. This mock cami is a stylish, light-weight bra accessory that can help cover cleavage without added bulk. And if you’re thinking “my girls are just too big,” you are wrong. one Winkee size fits all, and for curvier ladies, make sure to request the long-tab Winkee which has more fabric.

Although I haven’t sampled one yet, this bosom buddy seems like a great alternative to wearing a bando top underneath a low cut blouse or using a safety pin to prevent cleavage exposure – yes I have done this numerous times and ruined many expensive tops.

So what exactly is the Winkee? The Winkee combines the concept of a tank top layer with the added benefit of being removable, allowing women to cover cleavage when they need to and giving the option to switch from a day-to-night look without changing outfits. The Winkee kit comes with 10 Winkeedots, disposable double-sided adhesives securing fabric-to-fabric, that are good for 3-6 uses...I would stock up on these.

All you have to do is stick the Winkeedots on the inside of each of the three Winkee tabs, wrap the top side tabs around straps of the bra and wrap the bottom tab under the middle of the front of the bra – and now you are Winkafied!

Colors: Try ivory or black if you are looking for something simple and if you want to dress it up, Winkees new line includes fun styles and colors like aqua lace, sugar coral and café au lait.

Cost: $17-20 and can be purchased online at thewinkee.com; a pack of 50 extra winkeedots is $8.

Boob-eez: the ultimate headlight concealer



With a motto of "out of sight, out of mind," it sounds like the brand Boob-eez knows how to make a woman feel comfortable in her own skin. After all, the name "Boob-eez" is meant to ease women with their boob situations. So, sorry guys, because that common case of nipplitis that you drooled over in high school has officially been cured!

Created by Carlie Christenson, a women who once struggled with feeling comfortable in her own boobalicious skin, Boob-eez came to life and has created what they call "the ultimate headlight concealer," recommended to be worn under any blouse or dress for ultimate satisfaction.

You can stick them on with or without a bra. Boob-eez also features some other normal bra products on their website, but this is by far the best product on there.

Costs:
Original Boob-eez which are 6 cm in diameter - $12
Big Boob-eez (for me) 8 cm in diameter - $18
All found at Boob-eez.com

I'll have a merlot with a side of boobs please


Calling all ladies looking for a quick boob job, sans surgery:

Just when we thought things couldn't get any wackier (re: ringtones that can increase boob size), a new inventor (Cooler Fun) yet again surprises us with the winerack bra.

No, I didn't stuttttter. It's like nursing...yourself into a drunken blitz, and getting the cleavage, then losing the cleavage, and then getting confused why you lost the cleavage since you're now intoxicated...a vicious cycle I tell you.

Seeing as this combines two of my loves, wine and boobs, I am more than intrigued. Okay, here's the scoop:

The winerack bra is a sports bra that offers to not only give your boobs a boost, but also totes 25 ounces of your favorite beverage. This means it has to be pretty supportive if it can hold that much liquid.

Think of it as a sophisticated keg! The winerack bra is connected to a drinking tube (with a DIY on/off valve) that can literally be connected straight from your sports bra to your lips. Can I get a "hell no?" This feels wrong on many levels.

Here are some classic comments from various site/blog readers. Fill up your winerack bra and guzzle down for added pleasure:

"Drinking out of boobs is not so weird"

"I don't understand why anyone would want their boobs to get smaller throughout a night of drinking"

"Female alcoholics rejoice everywhere…"

"That's awesome"

Tagline: Juice up your rack for only $29.95. If you want to buy one as a gag gift or maybe because you actually want one (I urge you to get help if this is the case), you can go to baronbob.com.

A new sports bra...avoid the uniboob look!


I have been saying for many moons how being big-breasted and wearing a sports bra to the gym is as fabulous as waking up at 3am with a UTI. After a great workout, the boobs are not in such great shape, and may even start joining together and become the dreaded uniboob that is sooo NOT attractive. Sometimes they get very sore (even worse if Aunt Flo pays a visit) and some chafing action may occur. Although I had breast reduction surgery in 2008, at times I still double up on sports bras which causes a lot of shoulder aches and pains. Bottom line: NOT FUN.

Well, a new bra has come out that I am dying to give a try. The name? HANDFUL. It's purpose? "Designed to flatter, not flatten." I like it!

Cost is $40 and is said to flesh the girls out farther with removable inserts that can make sure no one's merely an A (not a problem for me...) Straps are slim and the bra is more revealing than the typical racer-back bra, If you are daring enough, you could even sport it shirtless as it's not too revealing. It also comes packaged with a mesh bag to maintain the fabric and longevity when tossing it in the washing machine.

Check out the story in the Miami Herald here:

Also, here's a great article about how to find the best sports bra for you, if the "handle" doesn't work.

If you have purchased this sports bra, or know anything about it, send me an email or leave a comment. Thanks! I'll give more details on where to buy it soon...looks like it hasn't been picked up by many stores yet.

The "Get Naked" Bikini


Whether the goal is revenge of an old girlfriend or simply to add some spice to a rather dull pool party, the “get naked bikini” will unwillingly get you naked.

This dissolving bikini created by a German company (it dissolves within seconds of being in water) is being marketed as “the ultimate form of revenge for recently dumped dudes.”

Oddly enough I can't seem to find the price or buy it online...not that I want one for myself.

In the meantime I warn all ladies to be on the lookout for suspicious packages in the mail with a bikini inside...it may just be a ploy to get you naked!

The unavoidable boob sweat


We've all had those sweat marks that seep through our shirts - the unavoidable sweaty boob lines that ruin the sexy look of that silk blouse. Of course there's deoderant for arm pits but what are we supposed to used for sweaty boob syndrome? I have read that using deoderant under the breast line may work as well as the baby powder called curash. But, I happened to come across this site recentlty that sells breast sweat pads from Curved Comfort. At $9.95 per box, they are affordable and fit comfortably under the boob...and they actually really work!
Of course most of us don't need to use this product on a daily basis, but in a warm tropical climate like Florida (where I reside), it is only natural to sweat in these areas. This is a great product to use on those days when you have an interview or are on the first day of the new job. You can purchase the product directly from preventboobsweat.com - I know...clever name.

Another tip - If you are like me, you probably wash your bras after 3-4 wears. But when sweating more often than usual, it's not healthy for your skin and could cause irritation. So, it is important to wash your bras more excessively. Remember to always put them in a garment bag to preserve the stitching and quality of the bra. Bras are expensive these days!

Kush

The struggling economy is bringing all sorts of wacky entrepreneurial ideas to the table - enter Kush.

Have you ever woken up with wrinkles or cleavage lines on your breasts? I know I have, but it hasn’t become a life-altering problem. Still, the Kush was launched in January and seems to be the only product out there that may do the trick (and we can’t forget men with moobs). But sadly it has become more of a disturbing invention because it takes on the shape of…well…something you don't typically sleep with in between your breasts.

The concept (along with the video) is kind of hard to stomach (may be considered pornographic to men), but according to the creator, Cathinka Chandler, it does the trick. The simple "Kush" is a pricey item at $55 a pop plus shipping but maybe it really relieve wrinkles and cleavage lines for BBG's.

Bottom line, unless sleeping with your boobs is a constant struggle, you probably don't need this extra costly item in between your precious girls. Sleep well!

Spanx a girl's best friend


Who doesn't like Spanx? I mean seriously. You wake up feeling extra bloated and Spanx will smooth out those problem areas and make you feel like a new woman. And the best part?comfort is the key component.


Bra-llelujah! Yes, that's the name of Spanx awesome line of bras, and they come in three styles - wireless, underwire contour and my favorite...the racerback - the solution to half the tanks in my closet. As their Web site says, Bra-llelujah was originally created as an all-hosiery design and is now a complete collection of supportive bras. BBGS's should feel the love.



If you have any of those unwanted back rolls, this praiseworthy bra will cut the fat and leave you feeling goooood. If you are dressing to impress in a skimpy little number like Malin Akerman on the cover of Women's Health, pair the Bra-llelujah with the slim cognito shaping body suit and you will feel more confident than ever...that's the BoobieBible word.


And, I must commend their web site and branding people because the image is sleek, sexy and fun. The Bra-llelujahs range from $36-62. The body suit is from $62-$66. http://www.spanx.com/.

Bra pocket


Every day there is a new wacky invention...sometimes an overnight success, other times quickly forgotten. Take the snuggy for instance (a backwards robe really) or the purse hook. Well, a new item that has been getting some press is the racktrap.
The Racktrap is a perfect gift for a BBG. I admit it - there have been times where I slip some money, a credit card, or a pen in my cleav, so this invention could actually be the answer to your next drunken night out. Instead of bringing a clutch which ends up being lost by the end of the night, buy a racktrap (clever name, I know) which acts as an undetectable personal bra pocket that can hold your license, cash and credit cards in your bra. Let's just hope the bra stays on all night, right ladies?

How to get one:

They are sold individually or in sets of 4 for $19.95 which includes white lace, black lace, nude lace plus a water-resistant sport version for the woman who loves to work out! You can also buy the limited edition gold racktrap for $7.95. If you order from the racktrap Web site, they include free shipping & handling.
Visit RackTrap.com to learn more about the product and possibly order one for yourself.

The Pouf-up bra project

Leave it to the Italians to come up with this poufy idea. If your sex life needs a little dose of caffeine, the Pouf-up bra is your coffee.

To improve your sex life, or simply to provide you with comfortable sitting, Castiglione Morelli Design Studio came out with the “Pouf-up bra” project. By binding the strings, it can transform into sphere like seating, or it can be used as a soft stuffed carpet. And for those who are looking to spice up their love lives, it’s worth mentioning that the seating comes with a Kamasutra manual, or instruction guide on how to position yourself on the pouf. To view the full article, click here.

The bling-kini, only $3k


Forget the current economic situation. According to British Marie Claire, the "Anita" is about to hit the shelves at Selfridges stores in the UK which has reported a 33 percent increase in sales (what is this wealthy "UK" planet they speak of and why do I not live on it?)

What's an"Anita" you ask? An "Anita" is a new one-piece bathing suit (that appears to be connected by a piece of dental floss) dubbed as a "bling-kini" selling for $2,986 by some brand called Pistol Panties. (I mean, don't promote sex and guns together or anything.)

Besides the fact that a human being cannot swim in this bathing suit, it barely fits half of my boob. The best part? It hasn't even hit stores yet and there is already a waiting list! What kind of bloody world do we live in!?

We are the Champions...


So, ever since I can remember I had to double up on sports bras for a good workout at the gym and looked like I was wearing a thick old bra my Grandma Gerdy used to wear. Not only was it hard peeling both of them off after a good workout, but the double action was majorly taxing on my shoulders - they would ache in certain areas from the straps, and let's not get into the posture problems.

Needless to say, there is one sports bra out there that fits like a glove and eliminates any chafing: the Champion Jogbra Action-Shape Sports Bra. It has a soft cup and allows room for the girls to breathe. The straps are thin and adjustable with velcro, and the bonus? I don't look like I borrowed grandma's bra from 1962.

Compared to other trendy ones found in Victoria's Secret or Bebe Sport, these sports bras are affordable and long-lasting. And, Champion has been around for years so the brand name is reliable. About.com is a great Web site to search for more of the top sports bras out there depending on your boobie size - just type sports bras into the search tab. And, for purchasing this one or any of Champion's bras, visit Champion's Web site.

Happy Sports Bra hunting!

A Great Bra is like your Favorite Pair of Jeans


French people sure know boobies! Having the perfect bra for any occassion is virtually impossible, but French company Chantelle may be a life-changer for the boobie-conscious out there. My mom actually got me turned on to Chantelle because Oprah featured the bras on one of her "favorite things" segments. She gave free bras to the audience, which is a good thing because these bras run around $70 a pop. But, sometimes, paying a few extra bucks is worth it.
If you have some boob on you, the Graphie collection by Chantelle, not Chanel, will soon be your best purchase ever, if you don't already own one. The Graphie T-Shirt bra collection has a pure shape and open bustline with the perfect fit and support in all sizes. HerRoom.com describes Chantelle's as a sophisticated design giving "support, shape, and a great look." On sites like Bagshop.com, they start at around $69 but sites like freshpair.com offer free shipping. You can also find them in Nordstrom, Saks and Bloomies.
Chantelle also make the Seamless Minimizer for BBG's out there (Big Boobie Girls) that has received rave reviews.
I've got this line in four colors - pink, white, tan and black. Go purchase one and let me know what you think!
