Getting Intimate with Avon
The first time I bought an Avon bra was through my nephew's then yaya who dabbled on the side as an Avon lady. I bought a non-wired light pink bra with floral edgings from the Missy line and fast-forward to several years later I still use it (yeah, my girls haven't progressed from the Missy line:p). Of course, the light pink has become a dirty white and the floral edges look nothing like flowers now, but still, the cups remain as soft as they were many, many years back.
Alright, enough chitchat and let's talk underwear.
Just in time for the festivities, Avon came up with their holiday collection of vibrant and jewel toned pieces of underwear with the themes: Royal Salute, Wonderland, Hollywood Glamour and Grand Jewels.
I was initially overwhelmed by the red Bridgette underwire brassiere (IPhp399) from the Hollywood Glamour collection because it was, well, red and lacy. And after years of wearing nude and neutrals, a red and lacy bra just seemed fundamentally wrong:p But it fit great and the underwire didn't pinch at all. My girls were very happy.
The Sophie underwire brassiere (Php350) had cute designs on the light pink cups. I actually liked these better than the red and lacy ones. Clearly, I have yet to embrace my inner bombshell.
The other pieces from the holiday collection are:
Elizabeth underwire convertible brassiere (Php475) with the matching panty (Php199) from the Royal Salute line.
Laura 5in1 panty pack (Php399) with a removable faux diamond that can be transferred from one panty to the other (although I don't really see why you'd go through all that trouble:p)
The holiday line is not limited to underwear, instead, there are similarly themed shoes, clothes, bags and jewelry to get you in that festive mood. And as if you didn't know yet, all these are available through your friendly Avon lady. Don't have an Avon lady? Call 8642900 or visit www.avon.com.ph (Note: the Avon site was down while I was making this post) to find out how you can get in touch with an Avon representative.

Hi Joyce, From my Avon contact: "Avon representatives are well equipped/ trained to take body measurements and be able to recommend the appropriate bra type and size best suited for the body measurment. "
My Tita has an Avon contact too, but she's in the province =) Do the Avon ladies take measurements and recommend the proper bra size like the sales reps at Wacoal do for their customers? Sometimes different brands have different bra sizes for the same measurements, I've found. Still, for the price I suppose it's worth it to just read up on how to do it myself and take my chances...
Hi Joyce, I just give my size when buying a bra. But I think you can opt to try on different sizes to find the right fit for you. Ask your Avon lady just the same, I'm sure she can offer a lot of tips when it comes to buying the right bra.
