How can a business owner improve workplace morale? Many businesses are finding that team spirit and morale are getting a big boost with the implementation of logo t-shirts and polo shirts, a new uniform for the workplace.

Promotional clothing has been the standard for large retail corporations, school uniforms, and athletics for a long time. By introducing logo t-shirts and other promotional clothing items into their business culture, small business owners and non-retail corporations are discovering huge benefits. The logo t-shirt is no longer just for the sales floor. It can be worn by the office worker, the warehouse worker, the mechanic, and the company VIPs.

The wide variety of options within the range of promotional clothing lets business owners designate different looks for different departments while maintaining a unified team spirit.

Florence Welsh was recently spotted in her tradamark vintage attire, complete with a pair of suede wedge sandals, available from Clarks’ Boutique collection.

The sandals are called Cheddar Gorge (and we think they are totally ‘gorge’!) and have all the benefits of Clarks premium materials and ultra-wearable fit, while looking super stylish and are a great ingredient in Flo’s festival chic look.

Bras for full breasted women are very difficult to find. Royce Lingerie based in the UK is adding cup sizes JJ and K in selected styles. There is a big demand for bras in bigger cup sizes. None of the retailers, such as Victorias Secret, Body Gap and others carry large cup sizes. Royce Lingerie had a tremendous success adding cup sizes J to their collection last season, and are now proud to go ahead and introduce even larger sizes.

Evabelle, Inc. a Montreal based company will be offering wire free soft cup bras in sizes up to 46DD. They are the exclusive importer of Naturana, a German company. Last season they introduced wire free styles in sizes up to 48E with matching panties up to size 5X, and it was a huge success.

Rumors have been circulating the web for years that Nike will be releasing the Air Mag sneakers famously known for appearing in the film Back to the Future II. The first solid evidence we got of such a release came last year when photos of a US patent application submitted by Tinker Hatfield hit the web showing the blueprints for a self-lacing sneaker with a lightning system.

Adding to the speculation of the possibility of future release, word has it Nike is in the midst of filming a super secret commercial for the Air Mag involving Christopher Lloyd. A film crew has been spotted at the Puente Hills Mall in the City of Industry, California where scenes from the movie were originally shot filming a DeLorean as it rips around the parking lot.
