When I first reviewed the website, it took a few minutes to actually comprehend as it looked like underpants on a bra. But, after reading the site and figuring out how the product is worn, it was one of those “inventions” that I thought was so simple and so practical, I wondered why no one had created something earlier.

According to the company’s press release, The Winkee“Winkee is a revolutionary, patent pending lingerie accessory, that is The Ultimate Solution for Plunging Necklines”. Basically, the Winkee attaches to a bra through the use of Winkeedots and covers the breast area so that the bra cannot be seen. Further, it is perfect for keeping the fabric of a top or dress from parting and showing all to peering eyes. Discard your paper clips, safety pins and Velcro®! No need to pin yourself together nor is there any need to hold your top or dress at the bosom when you bend over.

The Winkee easily attaches to the bra in three quick steps. As easy as it is to attach, it is equally as easy to remove at the end of your meeting, workday or other important event where modesty is expected. The Winkeedots are disposable and the Winkee is light enough to carry discreetly in a purse. Available in one-size-fits-all and a “long tab” version which is perfect for plus size ladies and women with larger breasts.

Made in black and ivory, both colours look very nice with almost any outfit. To further dress up the Winkee, it comes in Rouched and Lace Trim styling. According to preview information that I received, they will be offering the Winkee in pink as well, as they team up with the Susan G Komen Foundation in the fight against breast cancer. In fact, during the months of July to December 2008, the company will donate one US dollar ($1.00) of each online sale of the Winkee for the “race for the cure”.

Well there are two distinct events happening in this news tidbit but they are connected in a round about way. First, Mini Moris is also a name for the iconic car brand. She displayed her sexy lingerie at the Imperial Hotel in Vienna recently when meeting with Joe Corré, the co-founder of Agent Provocateur, while he posed in a MINI automobile. Apparently, the day before she disembarked the airplane showing nothing but her lingerie.

The other event is the Agent Provocateur Special Edition MINI car created by Joe Corré and chosen as the Life Ball Mini 2008. A black and pink police car with fishnet stocking roof design and flashing blue light, Corré recently presented the car and drove it to the Red Ribbon Stage. The car will now be auctioned off between June 5 to June 15, 2008 with the proceeds going to Life Ball, the largest European AIDS charity…
