LOS ANGELES, May 8, 2008 / FW/ — Petite women (those 5’3” and under) have a hard time finding clothes that fit; thankfully, someone thought of them a long time ago so now we have PETITES fashion. But, until now, no one has thought of that less than a cup size ‘C’ for bras would be a challenge for women. Not anymore, Itty Bitty Bra has cornered that market.
Designed with women whom nature ‘blessed with less than a ‘C’ cup size, Itty Bitty Bra was founded by Jane Alden Hodgdon to serve the needs of these women. Concentrating on AA & A & B’s, Itty Bitty Bras has developed a product that will not gap, pucker or slip. It provides support, stylish and most of all comfortable.
Currently available only in California, Montana and Pennsylvania, the company is also in the process of opening an e-commerce channel to make Itty Bitty Bra available to a wider audience.

NEW YORK, May 6, 2008 / FW/ — The skin, we take them for granted unless it is on our face wherein women takes time, money and effort to keep it looking young. Yet, our skin is the largest organ of the human body (yes, the skin is an organ like our heart and liver) averaging 20 square feet or 1.9 square meters in surface area.
And like other organs, the skin gets sick also; we can also have skin cancer. More than one million Americans will be diagnosed with skin cancer this year. And according to statistics, someone dies of melanoma, the deadliest form of skin cancer, nearly every hour.
Yet when detected and treated early, it is almost 100 percent curable. Women ages 20-29 are particularly vulnerable, with melanoma ranking as the second most common form of cancer in the age group.
In recognition of Skin Cancer Awareness Month this May, Olay and the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery (ASDS) have joined forces for the fourth year for “Skin Cancer Takes Friends,” a nationwide free skin cancer screening program that encourages Americans to bring their friends to a participating dermasurgeon’s office for a free skin cancer screening.
Together with “Desperate Housewives” star Marcia Cross, Olay and the ASDS are working to raise awareness about the importance of prevention and detection in the fight against skin cancer.
Often the symptoms of skin cancer are elusive to those who do not know what to look for. As the incidence of skin cancer continues to rise, Olay and the ASDS urge women to join the fight against this growing silent killer by sharing these shocking statistics with loved ones, conducting monthly self-screenings and scheduling a free screening with a dermatologic surgeon for themselves and a friend.
Regular screenings combined with daily protection from the sun’s harmful UV rays are essential to avoid falling victim to melanoma.
