May is all about MOM!

This is the month when we thank our mothers for everything they do to make our world a better place.  To everyone celebrating the love and support of a mother, enjoy!

MAY IS BREAST CANCER MONTH AT LINEA INTIMA

We are conscious of this important cause year round, but twice a year focus our efforts to raise funds in support of The Breast Cancer Society of Canada.  The BCSC (www.bcsc.ca) is a wonderful organization that funds vital research and works to increase awareness about this disease.  During the month of May Linea Intima will donate $1.00 for every bra purchased.  It's the perfect time of year for a bra-fitting and a new bra to support you, when you support Breast Cancer!

WHAT'S INSTORE

Hanky Panky Tanks ... more than just thongs!

Hanky Panky fans, you're going to LOVE the latest addition to the Hanky Panky line and so will Mom.

The Concealer: Like its makeup counterpart, this undercover agent smoothes your lines and, like an extra layer of skin, gives coverage under see-through fashions.  Spaghetti strap and tank styles, available in nude and black, $34.  Also, check out sweet girlie Camis, $58-92; retro-inspired Hot Pants, $46-48 and sheer mesh Chemise, $78.  Each available in assorted fashion shades, sizes S-XL.

MOTHER'S DAY GIFT IDEA

Indulge her with the gift of time ... NEW Do Not Disturb® Collection

An oasis of relaxation begins with a selection of luxurious spa creams, lotions and scrubs together with fragrant, clean burning soya candles in attractive, re-useable tins.  Add pretty lavender or cocoa coloured lingerie to complete this luxe gift any Mom will love.  Do Not Disturb® price range, $11.50-$109.

NEWSWORTHY NOTES

Steven and Chris/CBC – Thursday April 10

I can't tell you how much fun I had as a guest on this exciting new show with former Designer Guys, Steven Sabados and Chris Hyndman.  I demonstrated the dramatic difference the right bra can make on two different models and we discussed the benefits of my “5 S's” that make up a bra wardrobe: smooth, seamed, strapless, sports and sexy.  FYI, the show airs daily at 2:00pm.  If you missed it, here's a link to my segment.

Sweetspot Ask an Expert – Tuesday, April 15

Until next month!
