I can't find bras that give good support and are comfortable yet are still well hidden when wearing off-shoulder/bareback/low neckline dresses or tops. SOS! Your Fan, Denise in Distress

If there's one thing I learned while working at Oprah.com it's this: Make sure you are wearing the right size bra! Many women are not, and that goes for all women regardless of size. Use an online guide or better yet, go get a complimentary in-store bra-fitting at a place like Nordstrom. Finding the right size bra can be life changing for you and the girls.

Next, be sure to try on bras before you buy, even if you think you know your size. Each style will fit differently. Here are a few places to look:


This convertible bra by Cacique for Lane Bryant has received great customer reviews. I'm sure it's not perfect but it will work with lots of different tops. The clean lines and flesh tone are another plus (forget lace and frills, what you want it smooth, comfy support).

More Olga...

Another affordable amazing bra brand is Olga, which you can find at Kohls on sale. This bra will give you smooth coverage under many sleeveless dresses and tops.

More Naomi & Nicole...

Yet another option is to find a camisole with built-in support; this one's strapless but you can always layer a regular camisole under many tops/dresses for additional support which will add interest to your outfit as well.

What are the best bra/undergarments for your summer wardrobe? Are there certain styles you found work best? Certain styles to avoid?

Kristin Cavallari does some shopping at American Apparel in LA wearing a denim dress that manages to be casual, sexy and stylish all at once. Kinda like your favorite pair of jeans! Here are five more ways to wear denim in dress form, all under $50.

If you follow me on Twitter, then you already know that I went to Target earlier today and saw four styles from the new Dolce Vita for Target shoe collection, an incredibly hush-hush collaboration that a few readers tipped me to weeks back but I couldn't find any info about it and no one was sayin' nothing! Oh, Target, you temptress. So I kinda wanted all four pairs: A lace-up black boot (side zipper so you don't have to fuss with the laces), buckle ankle boot, studded ballet flat and black oxford flats, ranging from $29.99 to $34.99. But when I get overwhelmed with desire, I try to step back and assess, "What do I really need?" So I summoned up all my willpower and left empty handed. I have no fear that these shoes will sell out immediately (other shoppers seemed none too impressed) so I will return in a few days with a sound mind and make my purchase(s) then.

Have you shopped the line yet? Which pairs are you eying? Click through to see real-life photos of all the Dolce Vita for Target shoes I've spotted so far!

UPDATE: I went back and bought the Buckle Ankle Boots and Lace-Up Boots. I've worn both extensively and find them to be very comfortable. They're holding up well.

And the winner is… #25 Tatiana! Congrats to our winner and thanks to everyone who entered!

Wow. Here's a giveaway prize I'd love to win myself! I've teamed up with Chocolate Handbags to offer one of you lucky readers the chance to win this Studded Tote ($110) in the color of your choice! Pick from brown (shown), black, tan or grey.

You've probably seen Chocolate Handbags featured in glossies like O, The Oprah Magazine, Seventeen, and People StyleWatch (that's where I first learned about them). Chocolate aims to be an eco-friendly, price conscious, fashion forward handbag line, and has been on the market for a little over 2 years. I like that their bags look luxe, but don't cost a fortune.
