It happened last summer.
I put on one of my favorite tank tops and when walking out of my bedroom glanced in the mirror and stopped in my tracks. “What in the heck is that?!”
Soon after, I learned that I wasn’t alone. I had become a member of an unfortunate club. The underarm bulge club. The sleevage club. It’s not exactly exclusive and you’re kind of a member before you realize it. Some join earlier than others and most determine they’re in it for the long haul (settle in and grab a soda.) Whatever the case, there’s got to be a better way, amiright?
Warner’s Bras and Olga Intimates have announced the launches of two innovative bra collections, No Side Effects offered by Warner’s and On Your Side offered by Olga. Bras in these collections are innovatively designed to battle the “side-bulge,” which is the pesky unwanted underarm bulge that women can experience when wearing a bra. (I’d come up with a different word than pesky but this is a family oriented blog!)
A new survey* of Canadian women 25 and older, commissioned by Warner’s and Olga and hosted on the Angus Reid Forum in February 2014, reveals that two-thirds experience side bulge and 94 per cent of Canadian women who have experienced this problem would be interested in purchasing an affordable bra that corrects this problem.
Longstanding leaders in providing innovative solutions to women’s apparel problems, Warner’s and Olga have made it their mission to battle side-bulge, also known as “sleevage,” with the launch of the new bras. The bras’ unique design element is an extra side-coverage panel along the cup that seamlessly smoothes side-bulge.
The two collections cover a wide range of sizes for women of all shapes and sizes. No Side Effects offered by Warner’s is designed for the average-figured woman, features a flexible foam cup for a perfect fit and is available in 34B-38D.
Warner’s No Side Effects and Olga’s On Your Side are sold at Hudson’s Bay nationwide at the suggested Canadian retail price of $40.00. Go check them out the next time you’re shopping. I was happy with one more piece of armor in my artillery to battle the joy of age (and one too many desserts perhaps!) Now, I’ll await my next club membership…I can’t wait to find out (she says, loaded with sarcasm).
Olga’s On Your Side would be lovely for my wife. Thanks for the chance. Cheers.
I would love to win because my bras have seen better days and I desperately need a new one. My recent weight gain may have something to do with it too, hahaha!
I would love to win because this style of bra tackles that dreadful side bulge.
Olga is a great brand & could really use a good bra as mine just doesn’t fit properly anymore from wearing it so much.
Never heard of Warner’s No Side Effects but from reading above – is something that would help me in a good bra.
I would love to win because I could use some new ones 🙂
wonderful!
I need a bra that fits properly, which is hard to do here.
Sleevage…Enough said.
Well, to put it bluntly, I have boobs that continue under my arms and this bra looks perfect for me! lol I’ve always wondered why bra makers didn’t target this problem and its good to see that they finally are!
I want to win b/c I could use a new bra!
Would love to win one of these.
Since I’ve had a baby, I don’t have any bras that fit properly!
this would be great – i could ditch one of my six-year-old bras!
I just lost 35 lbs so my bras are way too big now so this would be wonderful to win!
i too lost some weight and need new bras, I love bras by Olga
The underarm bulge is unfortunately made its appearance so would love to win and see how these bras work!
Love to update the current selection (or lack there of!). Thanks for the opportunity.
Olga’s On Your Side sounds like what I’ve been waiting for all my adult life! I’d love to win so i can finally feel comfortable enough to go out in public sleeveless.
I’ve recently changed bra sizes so I’d love a new bra and this one sounds like I could benefit from it!
I’d love to win because after finishing nursing my baby I will need new bras, in new sizes.
I would love to win because I need new bras
After having a baby, I could use a new bra!
it is so hard to get a bra that fits perfectly this sounds good
Bras are a pain – literally! It’s so hard to find a good quality, well-fitting bra that actually looks decent, especially when you are larger-chested!
I need a new bra!!! Thanks so much for the chance!!
Unfortunately I won’t be entering this contest because they don’t have my size available. I always seem to fall outside size ranges which makes it so frustrating. Where’s the love for the 32DD?
You can never have too many bras. Olga is a great brand and love to try this one..
I would love to win because this sounds like a great bra, so far I haven’t had any luck finding a specific one that works all around for me
I would love to win because it is very hard for me to find a great fitting bra that provide ample support. This side support looks awesome!
I was just complaining about this yesterday. I need something like that really bad..
Help me PRETTY PLEASE
I’m wayyyyy too young to have bra “spillage” like this. So glad a company has recognized the problem and is giving us an option. Love it!
I always have trouble finding the right bra for me.
I haven’t tried bras from these brands before. I’d love to see how they work for me.
really need this – would feel so much better in my clothes
I really could use a new bra
Quite simply for better posture – and to ease the SLOUCH – starting to resemble a pretzel. Warner bras give the best support and I can attest to that.

I can definitely use a new bra and the olgas on your side sound pretty helpful!
I am in desperate need of new bras and hate shopping for them. I believe my current ones are at least 5 years old and are literally falling apart at the seams.
I have a bit of that annoying side-bulge and hide under cardigans and shawls to cover them up when I’m wearing sleeveless tops. This would immensely help me in hiding the problem area!
I would love to be able to hidg that extra bulge on the side.
I love the idea of seamless sides!

I am in desperate need of some new support, before I turn into one of those women who has to make sure that they don’t accidentally tuck their breasts into their waistband. (ok, I exaggerate, but it feels like that sometimes)
