I've been really feeling old-school purses, or what I would consider pocketbooks as of late. I want them structured, I want them to be impractical but incredibly stylish. What do y'all think? — xoxo darling, Hayden

Bras.
A while back I saw a TikTok and it inspired me (and my mom) to find new bras. And I wasn't entirely sure it would work. As a person with fairly large ta-tas, I've always struggled to find a bra that would fully support me because most common bra stores don't make bras for my size. It was really hard growing up having to wear the biggest size in what I deemed "old lady bras." So, needless to say when this amazing woman said she got me on a TikTok, I jumped at the chance. And when I put on my new bras my jaw literally dropped. I immediately put on my old ones to compare how they made me look and it was insane. These new bras give me lift and make me feel proud of my chest, which is something I've rarely felt. Please, for your own good do this!
Here's how I found some killer bras:
Step 1: Watch these TikToks
