Avocouture

Avocouture (formerly Avocado) is a Polish luxury brand which mostly operates as made-to-order fashion, though they are sold in a few boutiques in Europe (that I am aware of).

For sizing, I believe it is best to consult bratabase (https://www.bratabase.com/browse/avocado/) before purchasing.

I purchased my first Avocouture bra in Jan 2022; fortunately I was the same size as bra blogger, Sweet Nothings, so I ordered the same size as her, here is my bratabase review. Here is a similar review by Two Cakes on a Plate: Avocado "Jewel" Bra in 70H

**Polish website**: **www.avolingerie.com**

**Reviews:**

* The Musings of Ren
* Stanikomania.pl

The ABraThatFits Polish Guide, Avocado, hasn't been updated in years, but it still may have some useful info. Namely, it's not called Avocado anymore. I don't think the U.S. store Revelation in Fit sells Avocouture anymore, it's not listed on their website.

Tom Petty - Runnin Down a Dream Chords

Tuning - Standard

This song has a lot of layered parts and fills, and of course, the primary riff. For some of it, you'll have to listen and arrange fills and the like yourself.

Duke

## Summary

"There are extra strangers in this game **[+2 strangers]**."

The Duke adds two more strangers to the game.

* During the set-up of the game, two villager roles are removed and two stranger roles is added.

## Tips & Tricks

* Your ability is brought into effect before the game begins, which means you have no further responsibilities other than helping the mafia win. You are emboldened to do what you want, since you have nothing to lose!
* An excellent bluff is the Gambler, since you know that there are additional strangers in the game, much like the Gambler does.
Bella Rosa Lingerie UK

Bella Rosa Lingerie UK is an online store that sells Polish brands Ewa Michalak, Subtille, and Gorsenia. The store is very active in social media.

Since they ship internationally, this is one store that a person \*may\* be able to get an Ewa Michalak bra from, even if Ewa-Michalak.pl doesn't ship to your country. For example, I recommended this store to a woman in Singapore because Ewa-Michalak.pl (the Polish store) did not ship directly to Singapore at the time, and the Bella Rosa Lingerie website was willing to ship an E.M. bra to her in Singapore (\*though I don't know the shipping cost).

Anyway, it's one possible option to get a Polish brand, if it's difficult to get shipping to your country.

Guitar Tabs Wiki

**Welcome to the Guitar Tabs Wiki!**
Tabs and Chord Charts for popular music

Hi, This is Bryan from More Gain Music. I started this wiki based around an idea for a better format for guitar tabs. I will remain active in organizing any tab that is added, as I have a very specific idea on how to make this work well.

I'll likely be starting with songs I'm working on learning, and this is a side project from the shop and the band, so I'm not likely going to take requests. I don't want to simply copy and paste from guitar pro, not only for copyright issues, but courtesy from what that site has accomplished. Hopefully we can attract some good ears for doing transcriptions.

We're a collaborative community website about Guitar Tabs that anyone, including you, can build and expand. Wikis like this one depend on readers getting involved and adding content. Click the "ADD NEW PAGE" or "EDIT" button at the top of any page to get started!

We'll expand artists and this initial index page into more pages and such as we grow and it makes sense.

Altering Bras Non-Surgical

The following are some devices that allow one to quickly alter a bra without using a sewing machine, or needle & thread. This can be useful in cases where the bra is rehomed or resold, since these methods are easily reversible.

1. Rixie Clips or Julimex bra-band shorteners: devices that will shorten a bra band non-surgically. There are mixed reviews of Rixie Clips, review one and review two. Julimex is a Polish brand that makes the same thing and you can get them at several stores, like Misterna.pl or Other Eden UK, or eBay, etc. Generic Rixie Clips *may be* available at drug stores like CVS, Wal-Mart, Target, fabric stores, or on amazon & eBay. Shop around! Note: Rixie Clips contain nickel, and are therefore unsuitable for people with a nickel allergy, though I am unsure if the *generic Rixie Clips* (or the Julimex brand of bra-band shorteners) also contain nickel, so try them out at your own risk if you have an allergy!
2. the Strap Saver, review here. The Strap Saver is a device that allows one to shorten bra straps without using sewing methods.
3. Bra band extenders: the opposite of a Rixie Clip, these will make your bra band longer. Readily available on amazon, eBay, fabric stores, and sometimes at drug stores and department stores, too; I personally just got mine at a fabric store for $1-$2. Note, you will need to match the number of fasteners with the brand band attachment, if that makes sense. E.g., if you bra band fastener has 3 x 3 hooks, you'll have to make sure you get a bra band extender with three hooks. See this informative YouTube video, how to use a bra band extender.
4. Bra strap puller: see Julimex

Closing thoughts: there was a discussion on a bra forum a while ago regarding "do you encourage people to buy bra extenders, etc.? Or do you just encourage people to get the correct size?" IIRC, this was from a bra store owner, *Aphrodite's Closet* in San Antonio, TX.

Well, this is an interesting discussion. If someone has to Jimmy rig their bra 2 or 3 different ways to make it fit properly, it is what it is! Obviously, it is ideal to **buy the correct size**, but that is not always possible! Plus, as stated above. sometimes you might not want to make a permanent adjustment with a needle & thread if you later want to resell the bra. Food for thought!
Juri

Juri is member of Team 28. She is a character in the movie Drifting Home. She's one of the main characters. And also a character that might appear in in BeckLoveu6 Film Production's series Onchao And Friends also known as The Chronamantics along with the rest of the cast of Team 28.

## Personality

Generally a quiet and kind girl. Juri is one of the nicest friends that you can have on Team 28. She's always there for any one of the members though hard to understand the adults at times. She's always there for her best friend Reina even acting like a wingman or wingwoman of sorts with Reina's crush on Kosuke.

However she can get mad and stand up whenever she has enough of people complaining as seen with Reina in Vanoss Is Drifting Home. Implying she has a brave side to herself.

## Appearance

She has pale skin and light brown hair with a yellow clip in it. She also wears round glasses. She wears a light green shirt and blue short overalls as well as Black and white shoes and light blue socks.

## Trivia

* She's the only female of Team 28 that wears Glasses
* Her Text Color is Light Green In Team 28 making her main color Light Green
* It's currently unknown if she's a member of The Chronamatics.
"Polish prices"

Polish prices just means - for those of us in the bra-fitting community in North America - favourable conversion rate from usd/pln which is the Polish currency, leading us to save a lot of $$$ when buying direct from Poland. It also means: we don't have to pay the middleman (aka, bra store in North America) or pay boutique prices so we can buy bras cheaper. Now, do I (the moderator of Polish bras wiki) like to pay "Polish prices," or do I buy locally? For variety of reasons, I kind of do both.

There's a place for both. Especially if one is just figuring out their sizes in a brand like Ewa Michalak, it's probably better to buy from stores in your own country (or perhaps even the US if you're in Canada) in order to figure out one's sizes in the various styles.

That being said, I've seen Polish bra \*newbies\* order directly from Poland (Ewa Michalak, even) and get the correct size and style! 100% beginner's luck! That is \*risky\* but some people don't mind using resale sites to pass along bras if they don't fit. For any kind of complicated fit issue, I recommend working with a bra boutique first, just because you can try on and return merch (not just for Polish brands, but any brand). Sometimes your local bra store might have different merch, or exclusive styles, too.

I know some other bra bloggers - granted they live in expensive areas of the country (i.e., San Francisco, CA) - who say, "I would never pay boutique prices." 1 Other people hate to shop online for bras and prefer to use a store, even if they have to pay more. To each their own!

This scenario isn't any different from people who buy the "made in China" brands (Freya, Elomi, Bravissimo, et. all) Those are all cheaper to buy directly from the U.K. As a matter of fact, I was just reading a blog last night about the online retailer selling UK brands in Canada (Butterfly collection) who had to close down because she just couldn't compete with the prices from the U.K. (that and she was moving back to England! So probably many reason why she closed her shop). Her blog remains an amazing resource for bra fitting though, see Butterfly Collection Blog.

One thing I don't understand: calling Freya, Elomi et. all "British brands" is actually misleading because the brands that were made by Eveden were purchased by Wacoal in 20122, more than a decade ago. Technically they are "Japanese brands" now; I'm not sure why they still market themselves as "U.K. brands" (although I understand some offices may be still located in the U.K.). For example, the brand Freya was launched in 1998, but by 2012 their parent company was bought by Wacoal (Japanese Co.) eleven years ago now. What ties to they have to the U.K. (other than Freya was started in the U.K. in 1998) when the bras are made in China and the company headquarters are in Japan? That's like saying Toyota is an American company.

Gorsenia

Gorsenia is the #4 most popular Polish bra brand, according to the # of bras entered into bratabase. Gorsenia is more of a budget brand compared to the others brands in the top 5 (according to bratabase) which are Ewa Michalak, Comexim, Kris Line, and Avocouture. I find their sizing to be very consistent, but I only choose one particular style - their soft cups cut like Gorsenia Paradise.

## Personality

Reina's your typical rude girl. On the surface at first. She usually prefers getting answers right away as seen with Noppo in Vanoss Is Drifting Home. But she can calm down when things get explained or when things get rough she shuts up. And doesn't mean to be rude, he just doesn't know better as she is young so she has a lot to learn. She can be pretty nice when she gets to know people better and does want to help in anyway she can as she helps Juri with being brave and generally fears whenever she's in dangerous.

She's also quite flirty with Kosuke and has a crush on him. Reasoning why she's jealous of Natsume. But learns to get along with her in order to help her be better with wanting to be with Kosuke.

## Appearance

She's a young lady with brown hair with yellow and green clips in it as well as a pink hair ribbon. She wears a black tank top and pink shorts as well as white sandals and wears a purple jacket with white stripes on the arms.

Lacy Hint

Lacy Hint is a online store located in Florida, USA that ships throughout the U.S. and also ships to Canada. The two main brands they sell are Wiesmann and Sawren, with perhaps a few other Polish brands.

https://www.lacyhint.com

Their clearance section is really affordable for European-made bras! https://www.lacyhint.com/36-clearance#/ Looking at their clearance section, bras are anywhere from $16.50 to $36. That's a great price for something that's made in Europe, because usually the cheaper brands (the made-in-China brands) are on sale for that price.

Note: their regular-price items take a while for delivery, this is per trustpilot reviews (and this is also stated on their website). So, if you're buying something that you need in 1-2 weeks, you should probably look elsewhere as they have to be shipped for PL. \*unless clearance items, b/c those are already in-store.
Myrmidon

## Summary

"All players know your role. Whenever you are attacked or banished, play Roshambo with the nominator/attacker. If you win, they are eliminated instead."

The Myrmidon's role is public at the start of the game. Whenever someone attacks or tries to banish the Myrmidon, they must play Roshambo (*Rock-Paper-Scissors*). If they lose, the Myrmidon survives and the opponent is eliminated instead.

* At the start of the first day, the Storyteller announces the identity of the Myrmidon.
* Whenever the Myrmidon is attacked, the attacker chooses rock, paper, or scissors and shows the Storyteller. The Storyteller then goes to the Myrmidon (wakes them up if the attack is at night) and the Myrmidon chooses rock, paper, or scissors. The winner of Roshambo survives and the loser is eliminated.
* Whenever the Myrmidon is nominated, and has enough votes to be banished, the nominee and Myrmidon play Rosambo. The winner of Roshambo survies and the loser is eliminated.

## Examples

```
The Padrino orders the Myrmidon to attack the Veteran while they are alert. The Veteran and Myrmidon play Roshambo, the Veteran loses and is eliminated.

```

```
The Prosecutor nominates the Myrmidon and gets majority vote. The two play Roshambo, the Prosecutor loses and is eliminated.

```

```
The Vigilante shoots the Myrmidon. The two play Roshambo, the Myrmidon loses and is eliminated.

```

## Tips & Tricks

* As a psuedo-invincible character, you are an excellent mafia attacker at night.
* While the Myrmidon is alive and known of, they often become the public enemy to the Villagers. Draw attention away from your mafia teammates by making the conversation about whether to nominate you.
* Assume that you will eventually lose Rosambo. Try to deal as much damage as possible before then by goading other players into nominating you.
	+ It is in the mafia's best intrest to have you eliminate as many villagers as possible. Voting yes on a nomination is any easy way to appear as a villager trying to eliminate the public mafia member.

\*\*Polish stores that ship to the US/Canada\*\*

I advise not ordering directly from Europe until *after* you know what brands/styles work for you, and only if you plan on not returning things because it's just too much bother to return to Europe.

They have 14 days to return inside of the EU. However, outside of the EU, that rule/law doesn't apply. So, the deal is just between you and that store. I have always had good luck and I have never received anything even remotely defective, but every purchase is at the description of the store. So, they don't necessarily ship everywhere.

Fix Au Max

Fit Au Max is an online store located in New Jersey, USA. At this time, they sell three Polish brands; Gorsenia, Wiesmann, and it looks like she recently started selling Nessa as well, whoo hoo!

Fit Au Max ships to Canada as well.

\****They may do some pop-up stores from time to time***, you will have to check their social media, but primarily it looks like they do online at this time.

Store website https://fitaumax.com
Polish Bras YouTube

I like some of these vimeos of Polish bras - I mean, you can really see what they look like. These are all from the same store, Lace Lingerie in Germany. Gorsenia, Ava, Ewa Bien, etc. Here is a link to their vimeo acct. https://vimeo.com/lacelingerie

A Sophisticated Pair's YouTube channel (she now writes on the blog www.ASophisticatedNotion.com, see Our Old Friends) Many Polish bra reviews and a section on the brand Comexim.

Brafitting by MaHeDa; the basics of brafitting - very informative channel https://www.youtube.com/@BrafittingByMaheda

Lavinia Lingerie has a YouTube account as well, many of these are Polish brands. It's mostly lingerie-focused though, nothing wrong with that but this forum is mostly about well-fitting bras. If you search YouTube "Lavinia Lingerie" it will come up, I don't want to link it here since it's lingerie.
Pirate Ship Simple Export Rate

Pirate Ship Simple Export Rate is cheaper shipping for people in the United States to Canada ($9.49 up to half a pound), or the United States tracked to 55 other countries ($11.99 up to half a pound).

You do have to email Pirate Ship first to have them set up an account for you, using your email address. But it's free to set up an account.

https://www.pirateship.com/simple-export-rate

For more info on Pirate Ship, you can search r/eBay forum on reddit, it's usually the preferred method of shipment, and I learned about Pirate Ship from a former mod of r/ABTF.

This service is only for people in the United States. Since I'm in Canada, I usually use PayPal shipping. Sending bras should be less than half a pound, so you should qualify for the cheapest rate.
Corin

Corin is a popular bra brand, esp in Canada the Corin Virginia, which is a spacer bra, is a best seller (according to a bra store owner in my city!)

One online retailer in Canada is the store www.lalingerie.ca, I noticed they have a very significant section of Corin bras. Unfortunately, they are all $115 cad + but that is the price you have to pay in Canada (Canadian prices) vs. "Polish prices."

Feel free to add info with an acct.
Canada

The following is a list of retailers located in Canada that sell Polish brands. Or located in the U.S. and ship to Canada. There are many in the U.K. and continental Europe that will ship to Canada, but if you are unsure of your sizes, it may be better to buy direct from a Canadian retailer.

**Top five brands by bratabase:**

**Ewa Michalak** list for Canada

**Comexim**: ? BreakoutBras in the US, or Comexim.pl in Poland

**Kris Line:** Knickers n Lace in Calgary has the brand Kris Line listed, though they do not sell online. I have used BraDirectory.ca to search online, but I can not locate the brand. Note: Bradirectory.ca does not list every bra store in Canada. La Bella Intimates in Orlando, FL ships to Canada.

**Gorsenia**: Fit Au Max is located in the U.S., but ships to Canada. BraStop in the UK ships to Canada

**Avocouture**: ?

**Other Polish brands in Canadian stores**

**Corin:** this brand isn't really talked about on the bra forums but the Virginia spacer bra is a very popular bra in Canada. Too many to list, but using BraDirectory.ca can be useful, even though they don't list every bra store.

Misterna

Misterna is a Polish online store that I have purchased from many times; for a more detailed description of the ordering process from N. America (I live in Canada), see the Fitter-Sweet blog, "how to order from Misterna.pl"

I would only order from Misterna (aka, directly from Poland) if you don't plan on returning anything. It is my understanding that stores in the EU don't have to accept returns (correct me if I'm wrong) outside of the EU; some do, but only as a courtesy. It's kind of your deal between you and them (if that makes sense).

If you are still new in your proper bra-fitting journey, I would skip ordering directly from Europe!! unless you are okay with selling these items online on Resale sites.

Ewa Michalak outside of Poland

Ewa-Michalak.pl is the store website in Poland, but her bras can be purchased at numerous stores in the United States, Canada, Europe, the U.K., Australia, South Africa, the Caribbean, and worldwide. The advantage of going through a local store: usually the bras can be returned and/or exchanged (unless final sale, of course). The is helpful for people to determine their correct size in Ewa Michalak.

Where to purchase Ewa Michalak outside of Poland is getting it's own page *because she does make a very wide range of sizes*. The most sizes outside of custom-made. This page will stay the same, but feel free to add stores on the other pages.

Polish bras wiki is a resource to help women quickly find what they need - I don't want to show favoritism to one brand, or one store. This IS NOT a marketing account! We're not here to sell stuff, but we are trying to help women find a well-fitting bra, off-the-rack, if possible (since this will be the lowest cost). That being said, there are some "flagship stores" that sell E.M. and some stores that carry a wide-range of sizes in stock, and I will highlight them in case someone does have a rare size so they can quickly find what they need (hopefully).

I understand that Ewa Michalak bras can be the last resort for some women before they absolutely *have to* go custom; custom costs upwards of $500 cad in my province - no thank you! Ewa Michalak prices are significantly below that.

\*For the most part, I'm planning to keep any of the above pages "editable;" again, part of the frustration of modding the reddit forum r/Polishbras was the constant request to add stores. This way people can add stores themselves, and not involve me! So, it all doesn't come down to my little fingers (this is not my job, just my hobby, lol). Although some of them, I'm going to keep the same. Fandom does have a "rollback" feature, so incorrect edits can be easily turned back, but obviously I want the info to stay as accurate as possible. Okay, happy editing!
Lynchdale Wiki

## Summary

**Lynchdale** is a 7+ player social deduction game, where players must bluff, conspire, and strategize to come out on top. Based off of games like Mafia, Blood on the Clocktower, and Ultimate Werewolf; Lynchdale adopts a 1950s theme to add a new spin on previous social deduction mechanics. This wiki acts as a player and Storyteller guide to inform them of all the rules and roles of the game.
Obsessive

Obsessive is a very popular Polish lingerie co.

They can be purchased at Lavinia Lingerie in the United States, amongst other websites. Other Eden UK, which ships from warehouses in Europe and has a domestic returns portal in Nebraska, USA (so, essentially a domestic online store). And many other stores.

Misterna.pl in Poland also carries Obsessive. I believe Obsessive is very popular and is available in many stores in Europe.

Baker

## Summary

"You start knowing which half of the room has the most evil players."

On the first night, the Storyteller wakes up the Baker and points to two players. The most evil players sit in-between the two selected players.

## Examples

```
The Baker is woken up and learns Josh and Sam. There are four players in between Josh and Sam, which contain the Blackmailer and Padrino.

```

```
The Baker is woken up and learns Abby and Keira. There are five players in between Abby and Keira, which contain the Recluse and evil Politician.

```

```
With a Spy and Godfather in the game, there are no 'evil' players for the Baker to detect. Therefore the Baker is woken up and learns two random players.

```

## Tips & Tricks

* It's important to share your information early on. People will become increasingly suspicious of your claim the longer you wait.
* Consider if it is worth it to be executed. By dying, you confirm your role and information to the rest of the players.
* Also consider that your half of the room does not necessarily contain ALL the evil players, just most of them.
Worldwide

Many Polish bra brands will ship internationally. Some examples include

* Ewa Michalak
* Comexim

If you want a particular Polish brand that isn't shipped directly to your country another option could be: trying a store that ships internationally, such as BustiMi (UK), Lavinia Lingerie (USA), Levana Bratique (USA), Bella Rosa Lingerie (UK), and many others!

Or check out **Polish stores that ship internationally.**

PolkaDotBra.ca

PolkaDotBra.ca is a website in Canada that sells Polish brands Kinga and Mediolano (mostly); she may also carry a few Gaia bras, and in the past I have also see Nessa bras on her website, too. Although the online store sells out of Winnipeg, Canada, she also ships to the United States, too.

\*This is the only store of [that I'm aware of] that sells the Polish brand, Mediolano, in N. America - there could easily be more, I'm just not aware of any more.

ALSO, I really like that she has a cleaver marketing idea called "Bra Boxes" where she lets the customer choose 3-5 bras for $25 (like, the price of shipping in Canada, basically) and if she chooses to keep one bra, the $25 goes toward the purchase. Otherwise the box is just returned; this is a good idea in Canada b/c our shipping prices are so much. You're going to pay $25 just trying on and returning one bra in Canada, might as well make it worth it!

Nessa

Nessa is a popular bra brand specializing in soft, large-cup bras.

They are sold in the U.S. at Aphrodite's Closet, San Antonio, TX, and Fit Au Max.

In Canada at Broad Lingerie in Toronto, ON. Fit Au Max (store in the US) ship to Canada as well.

In the U.K., they are sold through BraStop.com.

Made-to-Order Fashion

A number of Polish bra companies operate partially (or some operate almost completely) as made-to-order fashion. Meaning, the clothing is not made until the the customer orders the items. This cuts down on waste and is good for the environment. For more information about made-to-order fashion, see this article, "Made-to-order fashion is giving garment waste the chop."

The three Polish bra co's that do this (that I'm aware of) are actually some of the most popular in North America.

* Ewa Michalak
* Comexim
* Avocouture

Though some of these are also ready-to-wear in stores, these bra co's operate as a combination of ready-to-wear and made-to-order.

Ugly Girl Pretty World

*Ugly Girl Pretty World* is a UK beauty, lingerie, and lifestyle blogger. Her blog is particularly interesting because a) she does wear a rare size (26D) and b) she adamantly reviews "from the heart" (see Lara Intimates review). So, unlike other lingerie blogs that are sponsored and somehow write glowing reviews about subpar merch, *UGPW* writes her reviews to "tell it like it is!"

Crone

## Summary

"Each night, the Storyteller recommends which player you should talk to during the day."

The Crone each night receives advice from the Storyteller on who they should speak with during the day.

* Each night, the Storyteller tells the Crone the name of one player who they believe would provide helpful information to the Crone.

## Examples

```
The Storyteller gives the Crone the name of the Sheriff, who investigated a Blackmailer previously in the night.

```

```
The Storyteller gives the Crone the name of the Toymaker, who was poisoned previously in the night.

```

```
The Storyteller gives the Crone the name of the Mayor, who was falsely nominated the day before.

```

## Tips & Tricks

* Talk to the recommended person as soon as possible in order to gain trust with that person.
* As the game goes on, the Storyteller will likely point you to players who haven't fully revealed all their information, or to players who are on the right track.
* A poisoned Crone will be directed to a player that will provide false or bad information.

Full-Bust Bra Blogs

The following is a list of full-bust size bra bloggers that review Polish bras, or other ethically-made brands. It is okay to include store blogs, as long as they as they review Polish brands or other European-made brands, the more the merrier! Obviously, there will be a mix of reviews on each of these blogs, and some of the reviews could be the brands we don't recommend wearing, however this wiki is about "the good stuff!"

Mafioso

## Summary

"If the Godfather is ever eliminated, you become the new Godfather."

When the Godfather is eliminated, instead of the game ending, the Mafioso becomes the Godfather.

* When the Godfather is eliminated, the Mafioso's role is immediately changed to Godfather.

## Tips & Tricks

* Communicate with the Godfather your role, and keep your ears open to any possible threats.
* Unlike the Godfather, you register as mafia when investigated by the Gossip or Sheriff. Although it may be tempting to stay alive as long as possible, it is still better for you as Mafioso to be eliminated rather than the Godfather.
Summer Holidays in Poland

FYI, if you're trying to order something direct from Poland in August, some companies go on holiday and shut production down for the entire factory. So, there may not be any response. For example, Ewa Michalak's website currently has this message; I believe they did this b/c they do have so much business worldwide. I'm not sure if all companies will put something on their website when they go on holiday, so if you're trying to order something in AUGUST and not getting an email back, this is probably why!
Breast Augmentation and Polish bras

Polish bras can work well for augmented breasts because of their construction; Polish bras in the full-bust sizes have narrower underwires unlike the brands made in the global south, such as Bravissimo, and any of the brands from lingerie giant Wacoal-Eveden (Freya, Elomi, Fantasie, Wacoal, b.Tempd). Bravissimo and all Wacoal-Eveden brands are all produced in China.

I digress!

According to the blog, An Enhanced Experience (and I wish I had more references!), the narrow underwires and projected cup shape of the Polish brands are particularly well suited for augmented breasts. 1

Not to mention, there is a wide variety of styles, colours, fabric choices, etc. etc.

For more idea, please see the following blogs

1. An Enhanced Experience https://anenhancedexperience.wordpress.com/

Subtille

Subtille is a newer Polish bra brand, though it has been reviewed several times on Bra Buying Adventures & Stanikomina.pl (note: you will need google translate for both blogs).

I am only aware of one retailer in the U.S. that sells Subtille - though there could be many more - Her Underthings in Guilderland, NY.

In the U.K., the online store Bella Rosa Lingerie sells Subtille; she does ship internationally, but I am hesitant to recommend purchasing from overseas if one doesn't know the correct sizes and styles that work for them yet (however, if you're in the U.K., dive in!) A.k.a., only buy from Europe if you don't plan to return anything. One could use Pirate Ship simple export rate to return from the U.S., I think that is the most affordable (since I am in Canada, I use Paypal shipping though - I've found they have the best rates).

Axami

Axami is a popular Polish brand.

It is available at Lavinia Lingerie in the United States, and through Other Eden UK (store that ships via UPS from Europe, but has domestic returns in Nebraska, USA). RebelRomance.com in the United States.

Devil's Advocate

## Summary

"Each night, choose a player: If that player nominates tomorrow, they are eliminated. You can't active this ability if there are only four players alive. "

The Devil's Advocate chooses a player at night, and if that player nominates someone the following day, the chosen player is eliminated.

* Each night, the Devil's Advocate wakes up and chooses a player. If the chosen player nominates the following day, they are instantly eliminated.

## Examples

```
The Devil's Advocate chooses the Sheriff. The Sheriff nominates the Devil's Advocate, and they are eliminated. Voting continues as normal.

```

```
The Devil's Advocate chooses the Amnesiac. The Mayor nominates the Amnesiac, and voting continues as normal.

```

## Tips & Tricks

* Loud and boisterous players are the perfect target for the Devil's Advocate. It doesn't take much to antagonize them into nominating someone, allowing you to eliminate villagers quickly.
* Aim for roles that the mafia want dead. Roles such as the Mayor, Veteran, or Savant that are difficult to eliminate are prime targets.
