Invisible Sports Bra

Multiway sports bra invisible under clothes!

Multiway sports bra invisible under clothes!

If you are looking for a sports bra that doesn’t show under tops, have a look at the Shock Absorber multiway sports bra. I have switched to this skin tone bra to wear under white sports tops for Spring/Summer when I go to the gym. The cups are made from a double layer of microfibre and are completely smooth, therefore pretty well invisible under clothes.

This is the most flexible sports bra Shock Absorber have invented as there are 5 different ways to wear the straps, depending on your sport and the shape of the top you are wearing over it. There are 2 sets of straps – wide and padded for comfort, or narrow to wear under strappy tops. A strip of open weave webbing runs beneath the bust helping you stay cool and as you’d expect, this bra features all the latest moisture wicking coolmax fabrics on offer.

Our verdict on the Shock Absorber Multiway

A feature laden sports bra, perfect for B – C cups at most activity levels or for larger cups with light to moderate exercise. Not as much support as the shock absorber classic sports bra, which has a super supportive 3 part cup design. This product is being discontinued by shock absorber, sadly, as it fills a really useful gap in the market for smaller cups. When we run out we won’t be getting any more stock so order it now if you think you need it!  Follow the link to buy this bra at Harwayes Lingerie.

My PR Photography Day and Dove’s Campaign For Real Beauty

Posted on by

Well I’m glad to say it’s over and I don’t plan to be on the wrong side of the camera lens for a while – my PR photography is done so at least I can put a face to the company. I think it is important to present a personal image for the company – it really isn’t an ego trip so much as a signature, a kind of buyer security – I am a real person, you can trust and rely on my products, in the same way as celebrity chefs put their signature on cookware. I will load a few pics on here at some point.

In the meantime, check out this video from Dove (the toiletery brand). They have a campaign for ‘Real Beauty’ and I think this video sums up what fashion photographers and designers really do to images of young women: It is quite short (20 seconds perhaps) and shows the transformation of a model from when she arrives at the studio to when she appears on a cosmetics poster. Show it to your young teenaged sons and daughters – its a real eye opener and well worth a look.

No Wonder our Perception of Beauty is Distorted

Thanks to Rev. Mark Warwick for bringing this video to my attention.

Freya Active Sports Bra – ‘Awesome’

Freya Active soft cup sports bra

Freya Active soft cup sports bra

I gave one of my friends a Freya Active on sale or return. She runs and says she normally has to wear 2 sports bras. Well she tried this last night and said it was ‘awesome’ – perfect fit, excellent support – for the first time ever she only has to wear one bra! Full review coming shortly.

I usually wear a thong but…

At the gym this morning (first time since before Christmas, it has to be said) I was talking to the owner who is helping me promote the new Freya Active range. She commented: ‘I normally wear a thong but it’s just too uncomfortable to exercise in – I must get some of these Freya sports shorts instead!’

The Freya Active shorts are just perfect for a smooth line under lycra joggers or running tights. The ice finish coolmax fabric and signature Freya Active logo trim prevents them from resembling big pants!

Runner’s World Magazine rated these briefs very highly, observing: ‘They wicked away sweat very well and proved exceptional at keeping our runner cool. Fit was slightly on the small side but they held their shape without digging in or chafing.’
