Much to the dismay or pleasure of friends and acquaintances, I have never been a bra-wearing woman. Once I started to work in professional environments, I reluctantly went and bought a couple of bras from Victoria Secret, department stores, even Target to shield my nipples from being seen.

Recently, bras have become a part of an outfit - blame it on Carrie Bradshaw for wearing bras with beautiful gowns. It seems unholy to me but that doesn't stop me from falling into line and desiring a nice lacy bra that if I so desired, I could show to the world.

Agent Provocateur's ads are alluring as hell and since I am highly attracted to striking women in bras or without, I ventured into their boutique on Melrose.

I must have really weird sized breasts because it was almost impossible to fit me in a bra that wasn’t too pointy, wasn't too big or too small. The saleswoman was so kind and remained so even after I had tried on about twenty bras. I finally did find a wireless black lace bra with matching panties. Although I certainly would not shop here often, since the price tag is quite high for something I hardly wear (and haven't yet) - A woman deserves a set of over-priced lingerie. With Christmas around the corner and this ridiculous ad below, how could one stay away from Agent Provocateur?!
