A spate of underwire incidents.... - Page 3

Iggy, if the wires are digging in even though they're not poking out, it really is most likely that the bra is the wrong size. Remember, not all bra manufacturers stick to the same sizing. Trust me, I know.

Iggy · 04-11-2007, 01:23 AM

The only problem with that is the girl fitted me with it... it is the only bra that fits in all other ways. And it didn't bother me when I tried it on, but when I do a lot of moving around it bugs me. It is soooo hard to find bras that fit right! *sigh*

Maybe the girl isn't very good at her job. lol

I know what you mean though. I've tried bras on at the shop and they feel fine but then they just aren't comfortable later. I've wondered if it's something to do with time of month and boob swelling/shrinkage.

Thats coz they look sooooo awesome with all that jiggley goodness poking out the top!!

I havent seen VS here, but will have a look online.

I did buy some Elle McPherson sets yesterday at DFO and I got some nice Bendon ones.

OK, I realize it just isn't quite right for me to be posting here, but I have to ask: Recently my wife found that one wire in her underwire bra disappeared in the wash. I looked real close, but couldn't find an exit hole or any damage. We never found the wire itself. It's like it just dissolved in place. Does this sort of thing happen often? My experience here is limited...

You all are so lucky. I always wanted big bouncy breasts. I mean....I like mine, they're pert and cute an' all.....but sometimes I would totally swap them for a pair of biguns

Ever visit Anne's Bra Shop in O'Fallon (I think there's one in Chest(haha)erfield, too)? I think they do custom work...

How would you list this on your resume? Boob Job?

I pay $7 for my cotton underwire bras. The underwires usually stay in long enough for the rest of the bra to wear out. Not terribly environmentally friendly, but cotton and replaced often seems to be the way to keep a comfy fit. i did go through a spate of underwire incidents when I used to pay more for bras. Go figure.

Mayor, you'll find it if you ever remove the drum. You'll find several of them. Snuggled up in all the odd socks like little sleeping bags. They use your trouser buttons for pillows. The exit hole heals before the bra even gets to the spin cycle. It's a conspiracy.

bras suck.

Maybe you need to hire a bruja?

I honestly don't care why brianna can't stand me. The feeling is entirely mutual. The post was an honest one. I do like my breasts. On the other hand I have always, since i was a kid of 13, wanted bigger tits. All the other girls had nice bouncy breasts that the boys wanted to play with whilst I got teased for being flat chested. Even my early bf's used to take the piss out of me, because they knew it wound me up (not unkindly).Took me a long time to learn to like my breasts. Probably only really resigned myself to them about 5 years ago. But still.....when other women talk about theirs I sometimes feel i am missing out. These are the hangups childhood leaves us with. The comment about them being pert and cute was supposed to be humorous and to let people know that this isn't something I am seriously bothered by anymore. So, y'know, if bri wants to hate me for saying something like that, well all power to her. If you want to dislike me for saying something like that, well frankly I have more pressing things to concern myself with.
