Been shopping?

Shout out to leiliaxf and any other curvacious gals on my flist.  The best bra shopping store (sadly only in the UK or online) is Bravissimo.  There is nothing smaller than a D cup, and some styles go up to HH.  Yes, I said HH.  I personally *heart* the strappy tanks.  They really work!  Now, go forth and find bras that actually fit right!

I need to make myself a "Fabulous!" icon for occasions like this.

Booobies!

Hmmm, I just ran up to the Maidenform outlet today and got 3 new bras and 15 pairs of undies for $105. Can't beat those prices. And I'd be sad trying to shop a place with no C cups. Being of the not as curvy.

Oh noes! A good bra is worth twice its weight in gold.

Big boobies! I love that they call their customers "big boobed". Leave it to the Brits to call 'em like they see 'em. :)

Really can't beat those prices. My fave bra (that I can only get at Nordstroms because basically no one else carries my size in this f*ing country) is $60 all on its own.

Isn't that incredible??? And some of the panties aren't any better! I matching set of bra and panties shouldn't cost $100!!!

But needless to say, because of my size, I tend to shop only at Nordstrom and JC Penney.

And as nice as Bravissimo is, it doesn't have that much in my size :( Cup size yes, but not chest size.

I'm a total Nordy's girl. I wouldn't be if there were a Bravissimo on this continent and coast, but as it is I have little other choice.

You never know. Your size might not actually be your size. The stories in the catalogues of women going into a Bravissimo wearing, say, 34DD and walking out in a 30G blow my mind! How can a person stand wearing so very much the wrong size bra?! Several women on a yahoo group I'm on were exchanging stories the other day of how they get home an immediately take off their bras because they're so uncomfortable. My first thought for each of them was, they can't wearing the right size.
