What: Bristols 6 Nippies ($10 for two pair)
Why: I am not a pasties kind of gal. Truth be told, I wear a lot of pastel sundresses. But when you have the (lack of) goods to wear these sorts of things, why not? After wearing them for a full day of work and play, I can attest that, quite simply, Nippies rock.
The crème-colored lace x’s were totally undercover with a cotton halter dress. A crazier pink-and-metallic pair was undetectable underneath a black strapless number, but made me feel kind of badass anyway. And no, they don’t hurt when you pull them off, thanks to a circular cotton pad that keeps your actual nipple from having to touch the sticky stuff. My only complaint is that you can’t re-use them.

Target has some great reusable silicone pasties that I like. They only cost about 8 bucks for a pair. They don’t hurt to take off and they are easy to clean. They are also hard to spot under clothes. Check them out!
Will do! I think I’m a pasties devotee now…

These pasties by Bristol and Pastease are awesome and sell like crazy. Women from 16 to 55 buy them in droves, newlyweds buy the blue ones to comply with the “something blue” worn on their wedding day. I worked at http://www.flirtylingerie.com over the summer and was amazed that although dancers and strippers wear them regularly, other women wore them when they couldn’t or didn’t want to wear a bra.
