Re: Strapless Dress Gals - A few questions

* What exercise (if any) are you doing for your arms?
I worked out with a personal trainer and we did a pretty comprehensive program for arms including push ups, bicep curls, tricep pull down, dips, and I think deltoid work. (raising you arms out to the side) Don't for get to work on your back as well.

* What are you doing for support? Hidden bra or something else? Please give the brand if you found something great
I wore a long line bra.

* Which Clear Deodorant?
Mitchum (its green)

* Are you wearing a slip for the bottom half?
No my dress was lined.

* What exercise (if any) are you doing for your arms? (1&2 pics below). Here's a great website (where I got the diagrams from) to show you how to do the exercies .http://www.thetrainingstationinc.com/exercises.html

* What are you doing for support? Hidden bra or something else? Please give the brand if you found something great. (3 pic)I actually wore both - had cups sewn in and wore a long-line bra. My seamstress suggested that I have the cups sewn in as well, it keeps the shape of the gown.

I got mine at the salon I went to (Bridal Reflections), but it was actually a bra that I've seen in Macys, Bloomingdales, etc.

This was mine, it was very comfortable.

Mine was the Felina - Style: 7643 Essential Seamless Hidden Wire Bustier. Price about $70

Provides a smooth seam free foam bodice for shape and support. Bodice hugs the hips gently but firmly so the garment will not roll. Seamless foamed lined cups with molded graduated pads along with hidden under wires with double cushion tips and double cushioned boninb placed only in the back and sides create amazing comfort and versatility. The strapless neckline and deep V back allow for multiple Bridal and formal dress attire.


* Which Clear Deodorant? Secret Platinum Clear deodorant

* Are you wearing a slip for the bottom half? Yes

The 4th pic was my gown.

Re: Strapless Dress Gals - A few questions

My FI and I go to Tiger Schulman at least 2 times a week. We work out at NYHR Club 2 to 4 times a week. We take tennis lessons on Sunday. We go skiing every 3 weeks. And we have go out for drinks and indulge in food on Friday each week. And with all that I've seen no change... maybe I should cut down on the closet snacks. Also, wearing Arm and Hammer Sports Clear deoderant ... it doesnt' stain and no white residue. Most likely I'll have cups sewn in. I find strapless bras irritate my skin, especially from the heavy latex that many of them have to keep the bra in place.

Re: Strapless Dress Gals - A few questions

To work on arms, I go to the gym 4 times a week. I take a kickboxing class, do tricep dips, bicep curls, tricep kickbacks, shoulder presses, and chest presses.
I am wearing strapless long line bra and probably wear a slip too.
Deoderant Mitchum for women

* What exercise (if any) are you doing for your arms?
I did every excercise I could possibly do, but not too much weight because I didn't want to bulk up.

* What are you doing for support?
I wore a white corset to hold everything in and keep a smooth line.

* Which Clear Deodorant?
Secret

* Are you wearing a slip for the bottom half?
I did.
