This month Brave Ladies went travelling to finish designing our 2016 mastectomy swimwear collection. We have so much pent up excitement and anticipation, of what is to come to all you ladies out there. It was simply fantastic to see our 2016 mastectomy collection coming to life. Bright, bold and beautifully flattering new bikinis,tankinis and swimwear for this season with all of the details especially designed with our customers in mind.

We travelled the week after the Paris massacre and it really made us sit and think about what is truly important to us. The appreciation that I have for my friends and family is paramount in my life but do I verbalise my feelings enough? Do I think about contacting people and then forget because “that’s life”? Do I put things off today to do them tomorrow, only to forget again? I guess the truthful answer would be yes! Yes I do forget. Yes I do have an extraordinarily busy life and yes I do put things on the back burner. Sometimes we need a wake up call to make us sit up and take notice, that life is passing by and we need to get back on track.

So, we returned home from finalising our mastectomy collection, happy and healthy, with a renewed vigour to make a few changes in our lives. I have made a bigger effort to be in contact with people more and not just by text either, but by conversing more. Technology is easy and convenient and can make life seem effortless but there are times where we need to make more of an effort so we don’t lose touch with reality. Sometimes it takes a life changing event – like cancer –  to put things into perspective.  Sometimes we just need a moment to stop and think. Sometimes we just need some time…

So, why not take some time for yourself and visit us at www.braveladies.co.uk and see if our mastectomy swimwear range – with mix and match options – is what you have been waiting for to get back on track.

Just a thought for the day BL
