Bras?

wasn't sure if this should be in fashion or what

but i want reviews on bras!

i only have three at the moment.

i want something fairly cheap like not over $30

and i only wear bras with underwire, i also prefer push up, shaping or those maximum cleavage type ones...

soo.. shoot!

the victoria's secret ipex bras are the best cheap bras i've worn. they come in a few styles (full coverage, demi and no underwire) i think they may have a pushup, too

my favourite [ironically] are lilyette, from maidenform. lilyette are the only ones that go into the triple D range with a few cutesy designs. most of their bras are push up with underwire, and some shape your breast so they dont look bulky under certain tops [button up, stretchy fabric, thin tees]. they're worth a look see!

do they have a website?

i wonder if VS have an outlet here

yes, they do

www.maidenform.com

thankyou puffmeister!!!

See I have to say La Senza cause I work there..
I think you guys have branches in Australia.
But really, since working there thats the only place I buy my bras now. You know you're being fitted right and you know you're getting quality for your money. And If you go just now the January sales are on! I've bought something after work every day this week..

ooh i need to go into la senza! i have my vouchers so i need to go while the sales are on.

i recently bought bras from h&m and i looooff them.

I bought a HK bra from H&M but I converted it to clear straps for my bday party dress and now it's really uncomfy

its bra time

really? i have 4 HK bras that are about 6 months old and i still wear them. only problem was with one where the underwire pokes out.

but i bought a nice bra from them, like a pretty one and its so good. i put it on for new years and its AMAZING. its not even a push up or whatever but my boobs look amazing. i might go buy another.

I just bought a really sexy bra from new look for £6 and its leopard print I LOVE IT!

I think it's mostly because of the straps. It used to be awesome.

Bras by 'Freya' are the best for me. I'm a 30 DD and have trouble getting fittings in 'normal' shops. The freya bras are so pretty

I love you for posting that, Jess - I'm a triple D, and Lilyette doesn't even have all of their bras in a triple D - Freya has a large range, and they're in sexy styles. Thanks!

This has always confuzzled me...but is a E cup bigger or smaller than a DD or a DDD? x

I dont know what DDD is to be honest... in UK styles I thought it went (eg) D, DD, E, F, FF..

Im guessing its the same as an E??

Puffy - seriously, invest in a freya bra, might have to pay a bit more than normal shops but they are so comfy and make big tits look luvverly!!

Yeah i'd never heard of it either, but thanks for clearing that up for me x

Here it goes C, D, DD, DDD, E, F....etc.

it does, on UK charts. I kinda dont know if a DDD is the same as E, since here in america, E comes after DDD, so I may have to look for a chart! I damn sure hope so, cos I'll have to ask for a few on my birthday!

Haha it's like 'D' is a very special letter in the alphabet to have so many bra sizes attributed to it..

hell, when I was a D, it was hard enough to find bras! as soon as I was measured as triple D, regular Ds were all over the damn place. I was pissed.

I was the same when I had my size measured properly!

I'd been wearing 34 Bs for ages and when I was measured I was like :

O_o !! EEk 30 DDs??

Everyone needs a well fitted bra!

Yeah, I think I need a proper fitting. Not too many places actually do it (La Senza and La Vie En Rose are supposed to, but I know a lot of people who've been measured wrong at the ones around here).

I was at Dillards and the lady's all "do you needs help?"

"no...just looking for a bra for homecoming..."
"I CAN HELP WIFF DAT!"
"oh, why the hell not?"

after trying on a bustier type thing,
she measured me at a 34 DDD.

couldnt find one, but I found a 36 and it fit fine. it was the first time a bra fit me proper! turns out when I thought I was a C, I was really a D; and when I thought I was a D, I was..well, this -.-
