Victoria's Secret® semi-annual sale. .i was there. . .and now that i'm not supported by my parents money. . .Target® bras work just fine :) . . .i thought that when the water bra was created . . .my fears about it couldn't have been portrayed better than on an episode of Will & Grace when Grace's bra turned out to be a water fountain!!! and now what have they come up with??? a HEATED BRA!!!! check it out what is going on? and it comes with matching shorts. . .ahhhhh!!! read about it here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/4420820.stm i figure it's legit as BBC reports the news. . .who knew that a heated bra can save the world!!!
