23.01.2022 ROSE GOLD . . We managed to get our hands on the last few Charley T-Shirt bras in rose gold! There is only a few in store and we cant get anymore so if you love this colour tap the pic to see if we managed to grab your size! .... . Posted @withregram @emmylou_loves BE TRUE TO YOURSELF @elomilingerie #LLChallenge26 Tonight Im taking part of the Elomi #LiveLimitlessChallenge. Being true to yourself can certainly prove to be challenging. Its not something that comes easily or naturally for everyone but one thing I can definitely testify to is that being true to yourself is just like building a muscle. You need to flex it, strengthen it and nurture it to reach that full potential. So my beauties get flexing! Flexing it in Charley! #elomilingerie #paidpartnershipwithelomi #emmylouloves See more

22.01.2022 **What is a "minimiser" bra and why don't we have any** If you google what a minimiser bra is it says, "A minimiser bra is designed to compress and spread your breasts across your chest to reduce the forward projection. This, they say, will make you look smaller and help you to do up your shirt button" When we are fitting here in store our aim is not to compress the breasts as this puts pressure onto the breast tissue which can lead to a lot of discomfort. We look to lift and... separate the bust so that each breast is encased perfectly in the correct size wire and cup so that there is no spillage (the dreaded double boob) or wire digging in uncomfortably. There are so many different shapes of bras that we stock which can either hold your bust closer to your body which will make your bust look smaller from a side profile or alternatively styles that will project your bust forward which will give you a narrower appearance from front on. Think of it like putting on a pair of shapewear.... it promises to slim you by a dress size but in my experience it always just ends up pushing my wobbly bits out the top or bottom :P because let's face it, it has to go somewhere at the end of the day not magically disappear like we want it to. So what happens when we have a customer ask for a minimser? We explain to them the same as above and then we let them know to try on a variety of styles and shapes. When they have found some that fit perfectly and they feel comfortable in, we ask them to pop their shirt on as that is the best way to see if you like the shape and projection of that particular bra. So whilst we may not sell a "minimiser bra'' as such... there will be the perfect fit for you here in store for the look that you are after.

21.01.2022 To twist or not to twist? . . There are many different ways that women put on their bras... some put their arms through and do it up in the back and others fasten the hook and eyes in the front and twist the bra around and into place. There is no right and wrong way to get your bras on but please be aware that certain ways can cause damage to your bras. .... . In the photo above the top picture is a brand new never been tried on bra, as you can see the wire sits perfectly flat (as it should). The picture below has been tried on once and has been fastened in the front and twisted around warping the wire out of shape. Over time this can weaken the wire, making it more susceptible to breaking. . . Whether you twist them around or fasten in the back please be gentle with them to avoid any damage to the wires See more

12.01.2022 STARLIGHT . . Now this is one of my personal favourites and a style that we always have in Carmel in store and then in cute fashion colours such as the slate (pictured) . . This bra has a four piece cup construction, great wide strap and is bandless which means no fabric can flip up or under beneath the wires. Starlight will either work fantastically or not work at all on some people (and thats ok as there are so many other styles available) as it does have a slightly lo...wer wire under the arm . . Now the sizes we have available are 6-8 GG-J, 10-14 GG-K and 16 GG-J and retails for just $74.95 . . Tap the picture to check out more details @ A Cup Above See more

11.01.2022 BRASSYBRA working its magic! . . The one thing we love about @brassybra (aside from the amazing lift it gives) is how customisable it is! It can be trimmed down or placed in certain ways to work under any outfit! .... . Posted @withregram @brassybra Stunner @sophieeturner shows us how she creates more cleavage and coverage with our that little extra strips underneath her Brassybra. She also trimmed the edges to make sure she has invisible support for her cute top! . Always make sure you have bone dry skin when applying. That means absolutely no trace of oil, lotion, or sweat when you apply (but after 30 minutes its WATERPROOF). . Brassybra needs 30 minutes to set before swimming or trimming. Have a question about how to apply? Send us a DM or email customer service at [email protected] . . #brassybrakit #lifehack #plussizefashion #plussizemodel #hacks #howtobeauty

07.01.2022 How much does your bra cost you? . . Lets break it down.... say you buy one of our bras at $89.95 (not our cheapest but not our most expensive either). Now following manufacturers recommendations, you wear that bra 3 times a week(rotating with others) for 6 months, that bra has only cost you $1.15 with every wear . . That amount doesnt seem too bad in the long run does it? Now you can definitely get a lot longer out of your bras as long as you care for them properly like ...hand washing and not wearing it every single day. They are doing some heavy lifting and do benefit from being rested, we do understand that not everyone can afford multiple bras at the same time but there are some options if you do need more then 1 . . You can always use our @zip_au option for payment which is basically a take home lay-by that you pay off over time, there are multiple styles now that start at the cheaper price point of $69.95, we always have a clearance section available in store and online and finally keep an eye out for our sales that we have a few times each year its a great time to stock up on your basics at discounted prices!
