Chantelle Two Colour Bras To Add To A Wishlist, dress of the day 611

 My American friend Lianne recommended Chantelle bras. We were talking about wired bras and being stopped at security because your clothing set off alarms. She had trouble with her wired Chantelle bra.

I said, I prefer to travel with wire-free bras for the 14 hour longhaul flights from Australia or Asia to Europe, and from the USA longhaul. She said she had travelled in a Chantelle bra. It was her new bra. It was expensive but she had bought it when it was on sale (on sale, not for sale, reduced price). She said,"Despite the wiring, it was so comfortable.'  

I went online to look for Chantelle bras, a brand which was new to me. They seem to be sold in the USA primarily or only. 

I thought the name sounded French. I was right. Their website says that the name Chantelle comes from the first name of the French woman who started the company.

I had trouble identifying the bra which my friend liked. There were so many styles!

I was interested only in bras with wide shoulder straps. Those which push your breasts together creating cleavage don't appeal to me. I am cautious about creating permanent wrinkles fanning out from the area above the cleavage. Also having both breasts close together can be sticky, especially when living in the tropics, in summer, and on long-haul flight.

Frankly, I have a lot of bras. three drawers full of bras! However, one style caught my eye. It was two colours. Different. Elegant.

How to repair a torn Mark & Spencer slip and make the hem wider, Post 294

Image
What is this? My repair.  I have a lovely shiny, smart black slip, from Marks & Spencers. It has a slit with pretty lace edging.  But it is slightly tight. It tore from the top of the slit, diagonally.  I looked for another slip. The ones I found onlin were twice the price and not in a satiny fabric. I wore it torn. I repaired it several times. It tore again.  I gave up. I wore it torn. Nobody sees. My husband saw. He complained. What could I do? It is useless to keep stitching it. It just tears again. I needed a new solution. I thought of adding a godet, a triangle of black fabric. I did not have anything to match. tht doesn't matter a godet is often a contrasting material. But that's when you have several godets and they look deliberate. I hunted in my sewing box. Boxes. All I had was teeny scraps of cloth in unsuitable fabrics. And ribbons. I thought about what I could do with the ribbons. They were not wide enough. But I could sew one each side of the slit. t...

Blue H & M Dress, dress of the day 393

Image
  Angela Lansbury wearing a blue background dress from H &M. Photo by Trevor Sharot. The Blue H & M Dress Blue background dress has a white pattern. Blues are hard to match. But I had a white blouse, so I wore this. On the internet and on Facebook you can see lots of videos of how to tie a scarf, but mine is simply hanging, which partly obscures the cleavage.  Cleavage cover I had a choice. To insert a dickey or false front, also called a removable or detachable collar. I have one or two which are plain white.  The alternative which saves hunting for a matching dickey without distracting collar colours and embrodiery, is simply to add a fastening. I decided that a snap or press stud fastener in small size is qhich to fasten and unlikely to pull apart (as opposed to hook and eye. I like velcro but it can scratch your skin, so the press stud was the right andwer. You have to get the two sides exactly measured up from the point of the V neck otherwide you end up with...

Period Pants from Marks & Spencer & More, post 345

Image
Period pants from Savida. Pants, UK. In the USA they would be called underpants. They come in two colours, black or dark blue with a mottled effect. They are triple layer. Could be useful for hiking and travelling. Or when you have a cough.  A pack of three full briefs for fifteen pounds. I then googled period pants and found lots of results.  Marks Marks & Spencer do a pack of three containing three different colours, black, white and pink, for sixteen pounds.  They also do different absorbencies. The options range though light, heavy, and extra heavy. And more styles, such as pantaloon style, like short tight shorts coming half way down your thighs. You can also buy leakproof swimwear with the brand name WUKA. Wikipedia has useful worldwide reviews of practices. Wiki picture. Useful search words (alphabetically):  A-D absorbent, absorbency adult diapers briefs,  cloth menstrual pads diapers E-K full briefs,  heavy absorbency,  heavy flow,  i...
