Ok what about bras. Im so awful I only wear sports bras all the time-to work also! How sad. What brand do you ladies like that is very comfortable and where do you buy it from?

Thank you in advance!!

I happen to love Victoria's Secret Ipex full coverage bras. They are super comfy and not at all see through.

I am wearing sports bras, the only thing that works for me because because my chest is, ahem, shall we say "not on the small side" :)

I order mine through Athleta.com, they don't all look like your typical sports bra but they are very comfortable.

Carola,

Since you wear sports bras all the time too are you wearing T-Shirts with the bra? I do and I feel like I should be wearing a bra not a sports bra but I am so comfy in them but they do smoosh your boobs.

Thank Debbie I am going shopping tomorrow and I will try out Victorias Secret.

Lisa,

I almost exclusively wear t-shirts, sometimes blouses. The sports bras I wear actually don't smoosh my boobs, they are real comfy. I usually have a problem with the underwire of regular bras, they keep pocking me (lack of better word) and even cause bruises. Can't do underwire!!!

Carola
 
Carola,

I feel the same way about the underwire! What brand do you wear because I went on the website and they have all different brands.

Thank-you so much for your help!!

This post is so timely! My DDs were giving me such a hard time about wearing those little "bralettes" that I gave in and bought some bras today. I usually have trouble finding bras that fit since I'm like a 34AA. But I went to Bloomies and found a Wacoal petite (no underwire) one that fit great. And a Calvin Klein petite T-shirt bra in an A that fit great also (bought it in nude and black). They're very nice... can't wait to wear one of them tomorrow.:)
 
OOOOHHH thank you so much-I am going shopping tomorrow and I am going to check those out!!!


Thank-you

I would also check out cami's w/ shelf bras - I find them more comfy than regular bras. I had a boob job about 1 1/2 years ago so I can get away without wearing a bra with certain things, I love breast petals for those times to help keep the nips from showing! I get them from laurensilva.com, I like the Braza brand ones the best.
 
Wacol from Nordstom are my favs - I have bigger "girls" and I get great coverage and motion control. Get fitted - it's worth having another person in the dressing room with you!
 
What about Sassybax? I looked at their website and they look very comfortable. has anyone tried them?
 
DON'T WEAR THE SPORTS BRAS AS YOUR EVERYDAY BRA!!!! They will squish your boobs and you'll be sorry when you're older (that's a Clinton and Stacy tip).

I just bought some new bras that I LOVE! I'd been a Victoria's Secrets bra wearer forever, but they just weren't giving me really good support. So I actually went up a cup size and got Maidenform. They're very nice bras and much less expensive than VS
 
I like the secret embrace from VS. Very comfortable. I could never wear VS before because umm I was too big. Since I've lost weight I go nuts in that store. MMMM sometimes I wish mine were small enough to go w/out a bra or one of those cami shelf things. I guess the grass is always greener on the other side!

Not that long ago I went to Victoria's Secret and had them measure me so I could finally find the perfect bra. The one that fit the best and was the most confortable was the Secret Embrace very sexy. I think getting measured is one of the most important things. I was wearing the wrong size bra all these years! Good luck!

I'm pretty small (36A) & VS bras just don't work for me. But I've had great luck w/the Gap--their bras fit me perfectly. And they carry padded, uplift bras without the underwire. Also just a bit cheaper than VS. Not much, but just a bit.
 
Yes! I love my Sassybacks bra! I have 36DDD's, try those babies on when doing cardio like Interval Max!!:eek:
You do not get that dreaded Bra bulge, it is comfy. Be careful when washing, my underwire, came loose and poked up, which I fixed with a small stitch.
I was wearing the victoria's secret full coverage, but the wrong size. I finally broke down and ordered the right size, different brand..I think it is by Fantase' or soemthing like that-- go to www.figleaves.com, they have great bras.
:)
When I work out, Donna Karan has this bra that prevents the bounce, Activa has it.

Hi Lisa,

I wear Wacoal Soft-cup and DKI by Donna Karan Softcup.

Carola
 
Barbara, me too. Getting fitted for your correct size is the most important thing when it comes to bras. I wore the wrong size for decades too.

Agree---Victoria's Secret Ipex. I'm a 34C, so the full coverage fits much better. Great under t-shirts!
