Say what? Yes, I got my bra. On June 12 – 13th, Supermodel Veronica Webb and the Skinny Cow invaded Chicago. They held events in cities across the US over the summer to ensure that women are wearing the right sized bra. Apparently a very large number of women wear the wrong size bra. This can cause discomfort, backaches, shoulder strain, and more.
Veronica Webb was in attendance to help promote the event. There was champagne, ice cream, lots of hors d’oeuvres and loads of bonding women. Although the event was promoted through various channels, it was open to the public. There were representatives on surrounding street corners encouraging passersby to come in and have some goodies.

The coolest part of the event was that every woman in attendance got a professional bra measurement session, and a free bra! Well, we didn’t get the free bra on the spot, but they said to expect them in 6-8 weeks, so I was excited to finally receive mine Monday right at the 8 week mark which prompted me to finally finish this post 🙂
Ok, well the real cool part was that I had the pleasure of tagging along with Meredith Sinclair of Hoo Dee Hoo on a brief interview with Veronica.
Check out a few more photos from the event:

At least 5′ 11″! Meredith said “Next time I interview a supermodel remind me to wear stilettos and stand on a box.” 🙂
Cool, Veronica Webb looks really tall, how tall would you say she is?
I must agree that a correctly fitted bra is a huge thing! It can be very uncomfortable for you if the bra isn’t the right size!
How nice! I hope they make their way to NY!! My bestie and I went and got measured earlier this year. It’s amazing how quickly your boobs can change.
