What's Up, Bra...?


Ok so I've been completely obsessed with fluorescent lace bras ever since I saw Gwen Stefani rocking the shit out of them. She's been wearing them almost every time I see her and I love how bright they are.

Now that I think about it, Gwen is sort of famous for showing her bras right? Remember girls studding their bra straps in the 90's to be like Gwen?? Totally.

Well, after looking for the past year (I do not exaggerate) without finding anything nearly bright enough I finally got the nerve to just ask her what brand of bra her brights were. I sent her an email and to my excitement, she answered right away! Her answer...? She wears Deborah Marquit's fluorescent lace bras. Yay!


I'm still on a mission to find a cheaper version but I have yet to find one. These look so great under all the sheer tops I'm seeing for Spring. I'll definitely keep you posted if I find anything half as fabulous as these!

They aren't shoes, but they sure look good! I'm guessing we'll see a few pictures of these on you later on?!

it's cool that something so ordinary can become a fun accessory.
it's even cooler that you have direct contact w/ gwen at our disposal. (: haha

Oh, yeah. I just get emails from Gwen all the time. OH, MY FREAKING GOSH!!! I do love her look. But, for some reason I'm not sure it would go over well when I'm leading worship. =^) But, when I'm rocking out my electric, I do often think of her. I'll be standing by for when you find the cheaper version. =^)

I had been looking into her bras since last summer too! I'm so glad we're in the same boat! Anyway, I knew they were D.M. bras. I also knew I'll never afford even oNE much less all of the fabulous colors she has!! I found a lime green, electric blue, and hot pink one at EXPRESS!! <3 Maybe ebay it if you're not completely terrified of undies from strangers instead of store...haha. Express.com might still have some. I haven;t looked. :) (They had them without any padding, but now they have ones with some padding to avoid the awkward nipple in the cold!)

Love it! Thanks! Keep us posted fo shizzle! But before I could rock this I would have to move back west! I think that people in Delaware would crap their pants if I was this progressive:) Perhaps a little "style" would be good for them:)

so i really want to know where you get your japanese nail art?? ive been looking for a good place and i remember your post from awhile back. please let me know where is a good one in oc area! thanks!

c.han1214 said...

OMG too cool/cute <33

please update when you find cheaper version. almost 300 bucks for a bra makes me wanna cry D:

WendyB said...

Oh my God...I had one of those in pink when she first started selling them back in the DAY! The '80s? early '90s? I don't remember. Makes me feel so old!

Unlike my other ancient clothes, I threw out the bra. It never fit me right :-(

Alexandra said...

i think it's hard to pull off. Gwen does look kinda cool (although i don't love it) but i'm not sure it will quite work with your otherwise cute and adorable style! i hope you'll convince me i'm wrong with another couple photos :)

Sara 'Izzy' Dockrell said...

I have a suggestion....simple easy DIY which you probably already thought of....White lacy bra....BRIGHT ASS DYE....that's what I would do....hrm I think I just might...I think I must post something about neon bras because I agree with you good for spring

Natalie said...

I know it's kind of late/behind, lol but they have neon bright bras at Victoria's Secret!

I work there and there is this one bra that looks JUST like the one you posted. I think it's called the Fantasy Lace Collection. It comes in Neon Highlighter Yellow and Neon Bright Pink. It also comes in black, white,and this really bright cobalt blue.

It doesn't glow in the dark, lol, but they're nearly identical and atleast not $200! They're around $40 which is a pretty good price. Again, I know you posted this neary 2 months ago but still, I hope it helps you or anyone else still looking for one!

If you/anyone wants more info, just let me know!
