FMF Reader Poll: Bra Styles

By -
Spend any time in lingerie department or specialty bra shop and you'll encounter such and array of bra styles your head may spin. I enjoy trying different styles for different looks. My cousin worked at Victoria Secret for years and would always provide me with new styles to try when she found good sales or when my birthday came around. I'm a demi t-shirt bra girl, but many of my dresses look better with a balconette style. What do you look for in an everyday bra? (You can choose multiple options).

It HAS to be balconette style with as close to full cup as is possible with that style. I like the uh, join(?) in the middle to be large and to sit flat against my breastbone. I wouldn't even consider a plunge bra. x

I usually am most interested in them being pretty but underwire and push-up are a must. I never wear full coverage bras, and like front clasps when I can find them. Pretty much the opposite of Sam :) I am guessing she has much larger breasts than I have. I DO like balchonette style bras though...

p.s. I noticed I changed your header picture. I really like the quote and am glad you kept it. But the quote and the font are elegant while the chunky knit sweater pattern is comfy and by no means elegant. The mismatch is bothering me....oh well

Fanya,I'm glad you like the quote and font since those are the pieces we'll be keeping long term. The background will change seasonally. Right now, we're cold so we're cuddling up in a cozy knit.

Pretty patterned fabric is a big plus.

I pretty much only buy black or "nude." Sometimes red. So I look for those colors.

What we looked like in 2009 Ten years ago I created, Fashion Me Fabulous, wrote up a handful of posts, picked a layout and send it all to my friend, Jael. “I’ve started a fashion blog. What do you think?” She gave me a few tips, wrote a couple “guest posts” and before long became my blogging partner. Together, we built a blog and community I could have never built alone. From the end of 2007 to the end of 2014, Fashion Me Fabulous ran regular content about fun, affordable fashion. Jael and I covered fashion week , reviewed fashion books , wrote about fashion history and did more shopping than seems humanly possible to search out the best clothes and accessories . We explored our personal styles , scoured Etsy for unique creations . I watched every single episode of Project Runway and blogged about it. Jael created an amazing presence on Polyvore . We learned all sorts of things about coding and websites and content and graphic design and so on. (You can tell if you look at ...

Dramatic Makeup

October is the perfect month for anyone who loves a dramatic look. Because of Halloween, you can get away with more in the makeup department than you can the rest of the year. You want to try false eyelashes? Go for it. You want to color your eyebrows? Do it. Color outside the lines with eyeshadow? Why not? Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.
