SUMMER STYLE TIPS TO KEEP YOU COOL !!

Summer can be a challenging season to dress for many women. You reveal more about yourself and your body than in any other season and have fewer layering tricks at your disposal to either cover up certain parts or create a nice silhouette.  It’s also harder to create a ‘new’ look every day, since you can’t really play too much with jackets, layers and scarves. In summer you need to be even smarter with the types of clothes you choose when you want to cover up certain areas. I personally don’t believe in using shape wear too much as it’s far too hot and uncomfortable. Instead choose smart tops, skirts and dresses that drape in all the right areas to cover up any bulges. Asymmetric dresses and tops are usually very good at doing that. White is your best friend in summer and is the most versatile colour to wear. Combine with almost every colour and pattern in your closet for a clean, modern look. Bodybasics offers you a wide range of comfort clothes to beat the heat this summer.

Since the temperatures are soaring in every part of our country this summer, let us check some tips for dressing for this season.

Keep your clothes loose.  The looser, the better. The less fabric you have actually touching your body, the cooler you will be. Believe it or not, a loose & flowing dress will keep you cooler than a pair of shorts & a skin tight tank.

Avoid flimsy fabrics if you don't want your clothes to stick to your body. Lightweight fabrics are great for hot weather, but they need to have a little structure so that they don't just cling to your body the second you start to sweat.

Choose clothes in natural fabrics. Cotton, for instance, is much more breathable than polyester or rayon. It's also better at absorbing sweat and dries faster, which means you won't feel sweaty as long as you would if your clothes were made of synthetic fabric.

Stick to light colours. Dark colours absorb light and make you that much hotter while light colours reflect light and help keep you cool. So go for light colours.

Make sure your clothes are fresh and clean. Never rewear your clothes between washes during summers as even light wear leaves dirt, sweat, skin cells etc trapped in the fibers of your clothes, which makes them less breathable and you hotter.

Whenever you go out wear a wide-brimmed hat or carry a lightweight, woven scarf in your bag. Drape the scarf over your shoulders or head whenever you go out in the sun, it definitely protects you from the scorching sun.

Keep your hair off your neck. A small cotton scarf is great for absorbing sweat, use it to tie your hair up. For an extra cooling effect, soak it in some cold water before you put it on.

Sit back and have fun with friends and family. That is what summer is all about. Shop online at www.bodybasics.in

ENHANCE YOUR LOOK WITH A PADDED BRA !!

Bras have turned into a multi-billion dollar industry, with padded bras being a very popular item for women to wear for everything from daily use, to a night out, or even to the gym. A padded bra is a bra whose cups contain padding, or pockets for padding. The padding inside the bra cups is intended to add fullness to the bust line, and enhance the appearance of your bust. Padded bras can make your breasts look larger, and they can help make breast tissue appear fuller and firmer.

Padded bras are designed to enhance perceived bust size and cleavage. The lining of the cups is thickened and enhanced with shape-enhancing inserts or foam padding inside the entire lining of cup. Padded bras support the breasts but, unlike push-up bras are not intended to significantly increase cleavage.

Do you want your breasts to look fuller or more lush? Want to increase your breast size? Want a bra that can help you compensate for uneven or disproportional breasts? Padded bras are great for women who want to enhance the look of their busts and tweak the way their clothes fit. Many women use padded bras to compensate for uneven or disproportional breasts. However most women choose to wear padded bra to enhance bust size and cleavage. Padded bras typically come in with padding sewn into the cups of the bras.

·  Women who want to enhance the look of their busts.

KNOW MORE ABOUT MEN'S SUPPORTERS !!

Here's an interesting fact. The first jockstrap was invented over 125 years ago. Since then, many support garments have arrived in the market. Choosing a supportive garment that is right for you depends on the sport you're playing and how much protection you want. 

The goal of an athletic supporter is to lift, support, and cradle a man's testes/scrotum against his body. A man's "jewels" hang in place with delicate cord and muscle tissues. Shock or strain on these cords and muscles can result in injury. 

If you're playing high impact sports like football, hockey, soccer, rugby, baseball etc, supporters with hard cups are highly recommended. Basically, any sport where a speeding projectile is involved, you should wear a hard cup. Supporters should be worn (without cups) for any sport requiring running such as track and field, basketball, and rollerblading. Supporters mainly confine the genitals, keeping them out of harm's way. We've all seen grown men reduced to a semi-fetal position after a hit to the groin without any protection. The recovery from such a blow is very slow and agonizing. Remember this next time you think you can do without. 

Remember, layering is key to support. Many athletes choose to wear more than one pair of underwear at the same time to provide the needed support. It really depends on how much protection and support you're looking for, and what you are comfortable wearing. A good supporter must function almost as an integral part of your body if it is going to be comfortable and effective. When choosing a supporter, keep in mind that the sizing does not relate to the cup size - only the waistband size. The waistband should fit the contours of your body for natural support. Generally, a waistband on a supporter will be wider than the average waistband on briefs, offering greater support. 

At what age should you start wearing a supporter ? A boy involved in any sport that has the potential to cause injury to the genitals should be protected - regardless of age. Shop online for supporters at www.bodybasics.in

MULTIWAY BRA – A MUST HAVE FOR EVERY WOMAN'S LINGERIE COLLECTION !!

Multiway bras, as the name suggests, allows you to change the position of the straps to suit different outfits, including strapless , halterneck, racer back, one shouldered, cross back or even the conventional style. Hence it is also known as “Convertible bras”. The Multiway bra provides support as well as comfort and is a must have for every women’s lingerie collection. Infact a convertible bra is an ideal investment and a perfect bra for every occassion.

Multiway bras have straps that come off and have hooks so you can reattach them in different ways to wear with clothes where the straps of a standard bra would show. What strap configurations it can do will depend on which one you get, so check before you buy. The straps will have hooks at each end and there will be lots of slots that they can hook into on the bra. Sometimes they don’t say all of the possible options on the tag so look for where the slots are to figure out which ones it can do. Shop online for multi-way, backless and strapless bras for versatile styles that will work with plunging necklines and backless outfits. Our great range of strapless bras and multiway bras will look amazing with any style of top or dress. So go ahead and discover the multiway bra with its innovative styles and great cuts from various brands at www.bodybasics.in

While buying it remember that every convertible bra should be able to do a classic bra shape, halter neck and crossover back. Not all can go strapless or low back. To make it  strapless it will need to have cups that aren’t peaked at the top and are firm so they can stay up without the straps. For many women, the thought of wearing a multi-way bra strikes fear into their hearts – after all, without those supportive straps in place, what’s going to be holding your bust in place? However, multiway bras are an essential part of any woman’s lingerie wardrobe, so have no fear.The support in a good bra should predominantly come from the underband, not from the straps. The straps are in place to balance your bust and help keep the bra as a whole in place; support for your breasts actually comes from a well-fitting underband. The most important thing is to make sure you’re wearing the correct size bra. In case of any doubts, consult a fit expert to ensure that you buy the correct size and style to meet your requirement. So go ahead and wear those outfits which were cornered in your wardrobe for want of a proper bra. Feel comfortable going strapless or simply remove one strap from your multiway bra and voila, you’re all set for the occasion.
