Abbey Lee Kershaw for Portmans, behind the scenes at the New York City photoshoot

It’s a love affair that has lasted a few seasons now – Abbey Lee Kershaw for Portmans. The Australian fashion chain recently shot a new ad campaign with the peroxide blonde model. Styled again by Christine Centenera and photographed by Matt Jones, the photoshoot shows off the bold inject of red in the new campaign.

It was a family affair for the Portmans team, not only with the same model, stylist and photographer on board, but Abbey Lee’s dad, Kim Kershaw, was visiting her in New York and came along to watch the photo shoot. He reportedly gave her hugs in between shots – adorable – and the crew had an amazing time together.

“The Portmans team had me dance for them with a tambourine in a tropical bar for this last shot,” Kershaw says. “It made me smile and was a nice way to end the day.”

Pleasure State’s new bra, the OMB, gives your chest a turbo boost without the surgery

We could wax lyrical about how there is so much focus on the size of a woman’s chest, but we don’t have the time to write a 1,000 word essay about it or the energy to relate it all back a pop culture reference like Mad Men or Victoria’s Secret. So instead we’re just going to let the photo above do the talking.

Meet Phoebe Griffiths, a lingerie model with a nice chest and a gorgeous face. Put on Pleasure State’s new O.M.B. (Oh My Bod – though we like to think it stands for Oh My Breasts/Boobs) Turbo Boost Plunge bra and bam, the girls got a nice perky rack. We’re usually sceptical about claims brands make to completely change or transform something, but after trying the push-up bra out for ourselves we have to agree that the Pleasure State O.M.B. bra does in fact increase my bra cup size by up to 200% and that the ‘SecretService™” suede lining made the bra very comfortable.

But how does the bra work? Simple, with padding that creates a shelf for your breasts to sit on. It’s basically taking the time honoured pushing-your-boobs-together-with-your-arms trick to a new level. Yes, push-up bras have been around for a while and this isn’t exactly a ground breaking new concept, but this isn’t our first time at the rodeo. We’ve tried on many other brands bras that make these kinds of claims, and we looked a little more adult-video-worthy than beautifully natural.

Like a lot of people I know, I have a love-hate relationship with Pantene hair products. Growing up it was amazing for my hair, then one day the love built up to frustration (pun intended) and I stopped using their products. Since then with a slew of new product lines out on the market, I have started adding some Pantene products...
