For my money, there is nothing quite as renewing as a new bra. I like to let my bras get to the point where you can read the newspaper through the elastic in the sides and the support is about as reliable as a ghetto "babydaddy." So when I need new bras, I REALLY NEED THEM!Unfortunately, I find shopping for bras to be a very frustrating ordeal. There are too many combinations of size, color, style, etc. and it's like looking for the moon and planets to align just right to find exactly what you want. Then it dawned on me...
Duh!!!
I turned to my trusty friend, the Internet (thank you, Al Gore) and found a terrific website where I found exactly what I wanted, with free shipping AND 20% off the marked retail price. I ordered two bras last Thursday and they were delivered on Tuesday. I am a happy camper.
For less than Bill and I would spend for dinner and a movie I feel "uplifted,"my clothes look better, I can breathe better (got those saggy puppies off my diaphragm), and my posture is improved. I will never go into Wal Mart and try to shop for bras again!
Just doing my part to promote the information highway.
I'm glad you deferred to the internet to find a photo for this posting. The blog entry itself was verging on TMI. It's best to leave the visuals to someone else.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're feeling uplifted :)
I was just pondering this subject today... these foundation garments can make or break you (or poke you if the wire comes out, or give you skin irritation if too tight... complex things!)
ReplyDeleteThis is a topic close to my heart! Since having a baby all I have worn are nursing bras. I favor a sport bra type one and I only have two. They are both starting to look like a pair of panthose, and the white one is grey! Tres chic! Needless to say I need to retire them. The other day I tried one of my old bras on and it just was not working. Everytime I bent over I fell out! TMI Sorry Em! Between my two sad nursing bras and a drawer full of non supportive pre baby bras I am on a quest for the "one."
ReplyDeleteThis is yet another sign of middle age. You know, you could join my little "support" group, the SOST's.
ReplyDeleteMost of those members pay a small fortune to go to specialty shops and let small old ladies tug and maneuver them into the bra world's "ironclad" models. Those puppies stand up and look like cadillac bumper bullets!
