Rumor has it that bras can be a little uncomfortable, meaning that -- if they thought they could get away with it -- many women would like to go braless. Awesome!

However, this liberated fashion choice presents some obvious problems. Namely, that you "walk into a cold building and bling -- all of a sudden [your] 'high beams' are on blast for the world to see." Not exactly a best case scenario if you're a woman who prides herself on being discrete.

Fortunately for all of us, the solution may be here -- "Nippies." Made by Bristols6, these look more or less like the "pasties" that burlesque troupes wear so they're not pulling Janet Jacksons every time they perform. However, they come in a variety of styles for the everyday woman -- including stars, butterflies, and just about anything else you can think of.

Says Chanel at Hip Candy: "Kept me perfectly closed in when I wore them recently with a slightly plunging neckline. And believe me, I shook and shimmied to put 'em to the test."

With any luck, you'll never have to wear a bra again.

We've talked about little things that we use here and there to help with a temporary nip or tuck - fashion tape to keep necklines in place, regular old double-sided tape for the same idea, and breast petals from Lauren Silva. I've come across another brand similar to breast petals called Nippies, which is company based out of Venice, California. Nippies are called the "patch of freedom" because they allow you to wear 1) all those tops that would otherwise expose straps, or 2) any top when you just want to go au naturel. Nippies will be especially helpful this Holiday season when you want to slip into that slinky cocktail dress.

Nippies are availble online from their website at www.nippies.net. They come in different shapes, sizes, and "patterns."
