I have found the Holy Grail

Hallelulia, sister.

It happened to me, once.

But, when I went back to buy the rest of the entire stock: NONE! ZERO?! ZIP! ZILCH!

I don't think so.

Bras are from hell.

I prefer spandex or nothing. If you don't like my boobs you can chew bird of paradise leaves.

Well, maybe once in a while, a day out of sixty, a bra. Still. I have a bra drawer, I like lace. What is that about? Due for a serious toss.

I've had three breast surgeries from a relatively light breast cancer but surgical chasing. One is lower. Guys back in the day, surgeons even, would laugh about that. So, if I need to speak to the United Nations or equivalent, I'll wear a bra.

I may have to organize a burning, decades past just the right time.

I see that was a tad petulant.

And of course I like and liked lace.

Still, the taunting of women with breast change... can be a bummer.

Snort, I don't mean all those surgeons who laughed at cattywampus breasts knew me or mine, ackk, but that seemed the going point of view, eh.

You know what?

I've found that finding the right one doesn't have anything to do with the brand.

Those expensive ones can feel the worst.

Or the bras that have the straps farther apart? They look really pretty, but it drives me crazy having the straps on the ends of my shoulders.

To preempt Chai's roar,


sure, you get to wear a good bra. Reminds me of the Olga fitters in the old days.


I've friends with major breasts to deal with. Is that your situation, Chai. If so, I'll stop yammering.

major breasts....

I see I'm being a brat, so it goes.

(of course the perfect bra is great..)

I had a friend in the underwear design business. She reported helping women get a bra that fit and hearing screams of delight and amazement from the dressing rooms.

She helped me find the perfect fit--and comfortable.

I helped her too. Her company was trying to design a strapless bra (not long line) for women with larger cup sizes. I was the guinea pig. I still have a few samples made just for me.

They fit, but they didn't provide enough support. So it goes.

Good for you, Chai.

Re: I have found the Holy Grail

Have you thought of the possibility of a bat flying into it?
(see important story here)

OMG!

I just found the same bra on Amazon for 6 bucks less!

That's including the shipping and taking off $5 for buying 3. I put it 2 orders for a total of 6.

Well, the one I'm wearing stays, but the others are going back to the store.

Saved $36.

I could buy a fruit bat with the savings.

sheesh.

I cant find anything to hold these dang boulders off the ground.

Go to Macy's

They were $32 on sale for $22 and got them on Amazon for $15.

Maybe 7 are a lot of bras, but if I find one that fits I take advantage of it..

I'm set for awhile.

The
naked ladies walk
the heated streets
wearing
thin, so thin,
summer dresses,
their hips,
clocklike,
tick.

breasts,
so alive
under the shearness
tear the eyes of every
young man sighing
on the heated streets.

Yeah, Chai, should your breasts be saluted or are they still just plebes?


I have yet to find a good fitting bra that lasts past the first washing. If I ever do find one, I can't ever get replacements.

Have resorted to just wearing tank tops with the built in bra shelf if and when I need to tame the wild beasts for an outing in public.

That's one good side benefit to menopause. I no longer suffer the monthly excruciating soreness of confining swollen breasts that wistfully think there might be an occasion to nurse a baby and prepare to do so whether needed or not.

I may Bite the Bullet soon and go and be properly fitted.

Trinny and Susannah have convinced me.

Meanwhile, my favourit black bra has sprouted the Hooks From Hell...overnight!

What was a comfortable and good-looking bra has suddenly gone feral, and the fasteners are gouging my back mercilessly.


WHY, OH GODDESS, WHY???!!!

ok, here's a question....


How many bras do you own?



gentlemen, feel free to join in, I understand the allure of wearing womens underwear.

Yes, but it must be the size of a cell phone.

4????? Or thereabouts...in active use.

There's a few casualties lying around in the back of the drawer somewhere.
