October's Ipsy glam bag

First I wanted to say that I am sorry for not posting as much. I have been a little busy with school, work and life in general. Second, sorry for not making a spoilers post! I just did not have the time to even look at the spoilers this month. I did just recently (Saturday) get my glam bag and I managed to snap some pictures to share. YAY!!! Anyways here is my October's glam bag. =)

Are you wearing the correct bra?

I came across this on my facebook news feed and it was pretty much mind blowing. Now let me say, I use to work at Lane Bryant and have fitted many women with a bra but as it turns out I was not correctly trained on how to fit a bra. It makes me kind of sad that I failed so many women and fit them with a new bra that still didn't fit them correctly. Anyways I am still trying to locate my tape measure in order to check my proper measurements but I know for a fact that when I was last measured at Victoria Secret it was incorrect. None of the bras that I tried on fit comfortably and everything was hanging out on the sides. I thankfully have not had any problems with my back but that doesn't mean it's not going to happen if I don't change my bra wearing ways. So let me share with you a repost of the blog (The writer of the blog actually encouraged people to reblog it) I don't have tumbler though so I will include a link to the original blog post and I am giving her full credit for this. I just had to share it.

DO IT NOW: Guide to Proper Bra Fit and Measuring because Victoria Secret and La Senza and whatever are full of shit and you are definitely wearing the wrong size ok? ok

Hi guys I’m obsessed with this shit lately because I don’t want anyone to have unhappy, unsupported boobs like I did. Even if you think your boobs and bras are fine, try it. It will make a big difference in comfort, support, and shape, even if you have small boobs or big boobs. A proper fitting bra can fix back, shoulder, and neck pain, along with breast soreness - and it can help you look 10lbs lighter, and your breasts a hell of a lot perkier. This guide also works for proper-sized bikinis and bathing suits (many online stores linked to below sell both- sometimes for as low as 10$!)

Don’t just like this, REBLOG IT. EVERYBODY WITH BOOBS DESERVES A PROPER FIT. Even if you don’t wear bras yourself, spread it around to tumblr or with your friends or family.

Grab a soft tape measurer (use inches) and get nekkid - don’t wear a bra or shirt please, you don’t wear a bra or shirt underneath your bra, do you? This part is fast and easy, and will help you find your ‘Starting Point’ bra size - you may not end up in this exact size, but it will get you in the right ballpark.
