I've finally gotten to the point where I don't care what size a piece of clothing is - as long as it's comfortable and looks half-way decent on me.

There's such a range of sizes within the same size....it's enough to drive you batty. I've found that the better made the article of clothing is the smaller the size I can wear.

Bras are my least favorite thing to shop for.

I was at the mall shopping in my favorite store and the lady working there saw me come out with different shirts, SHe says, "don't be offended but I think you need a different bra" well what a difference it made to have someone fit me for a bra.

The girls sit up right and I was even able to get a smaller size shirt. I was bad about buying cheaper bras but no more. Now I have several in different colors and they look great...Sue

sue, what brand of bra did you buy?

i bought a new one at walmart..yeah i know cheap..yesterday.

i'm pretty busty. i knew i was outgrowing :eek: my old ones. DD cup size in a 36 wasn't holding these girl in. :o

i bought a Sweet Nothings No Back Fat. strange name. it's a front hook bra. kinda looks like a cross back, but nore of t-back and has the nicest softest side elestic.

Hi Curious, I bought Cacique brand at Lane Bryant. They were I think 30.00 and also buy one get one half off. I also get coupons for 25.00 off a 75.00 purchase so I usually wait for sales like that. They have underwires but unlike other underwires I have worn these are comfortable. ...Sue

pardon the intrusion, deb asked me to add she also is using those bras from lane bryant, she loves them

as for my smart allec comment was gonna say this was last thread i read last night and dreamed of pillows all night lol :eek:

Frank - I knew you'd find it hard not to comment on this thread!!! :D

:paperbag: I was a heavy smoker and SKINNY until all this stupid brain trouble that for unconnected reasons included breast surgery :confused: so I quit smoking and gained a massive amount of weight...... anyhow ....... I have two breasts (surprise!!!!) and they are very different sizes.
No bra fits and I hate 'em all anyhow.

wren, there are bras now with removable pads. it helps with that problem. you can take out for bigger side. most woman are really the same on each side. frank...you didn't read that. :wink:

i also saw that more than one maker has bras now in 12 sizes. one was marked NT..lol..for nearly there.

:hug:

I would like to know why they don't make B and a half, C and a half,

I am not a full C.

I would LOVE to find half cup sizes. Like shoes!!!! lol

they do mel. just not all bra makers do it.

it was the "nearly there" sizing i mentioned.
