I'm glad they are finally realizing that those of us with big boobs like to look pretty, too.

[skywardprodigal.livejournal.com]

YES.

Big Tittays Need Love, Too!

[skywardprodigal.livejournal.com]

Of the dainty, pretty fabrics and colorful lace kind. 'Cause, well, Heh. They get enough of the handson sort. ;)

[silverthorne.livejournal.com]

very pretty. :)

...But do they do trip D's (and how many small children would I have to sell to be able to afford one?).

;)

Seriously, those are cool. Definitely would be interested into looking into some.

If you click on "braexperience" under source you'll see more details like here (http://braexperience.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=BE&Category_Code=ArabellaFreya) which describes DDD's.

[silverthorne.livejournal.com]

Thanks. :)

Also, next time I think I'll think of selling my organs. Um.

Coffee. I needs it.

*hugs*

[skywardprodigal.livejournal.com]

Don't sell your organs. Sell art!

Go drinky your coffee!

[silverthorne.livejournal.com]

But...but...my organs are healthy? My doctor said so!

Drinking! Drinking! *g*

[skywardprodigal.livejournal.com]

Your organs are healthy for you. Cute panties don't necessarily cover up incisions!

[silverthorne.livejournal.com]

roflol!

[shadowfae.livejournal.com]

Why do bra companies here do the "triple" and "quadruple" D thing?

Just say F, G, H like they do in Europe! It would be a helluva lot less confusing ...

[skywardprodigal.livejournal.com]

Because triple D is sexier than J. Like XXX is supposedly sexier than X

[indigoskynet.livejournal.com]

Pretty.

I guess being just DD I don't have as hard a problem finding pretty bras. I just go to Fashion Bug and/or Lane Bryant.

[silverthorne.livejournal.com]

Well...my problem, at least, is that although my boobs are huge? My torso is back down under plus size range now...so it's harder to find bras. I know I can find plenty of d's and even dd's that are up to 42 at someplace like Target (because I'm rifling through them all the time), but above that, I'm lucky to find one 38 DDD...where-as there's plenty of DD, and even more D's. I think there's a disconnect between being 'smaller' and having huge boobs for makers of clothes for the 'average' person. If that makes sense.

[shadowfae.livejournal.com]

There is a disconnect. I've been running around for years with bras that don't fit in the band size because manufacturers refuse to acknowledge that you can be a band size of 34 or 36 and still have huge cups.

For years I've been settling for a 38 band size, and all of my bras have been riding up in the back, slumping in the front, because the band doesn't fit right.

So I started looking online and trying things that way. I've been much more successful.

[silverthorne.livejournal.com]

*nods*

Yeah, that's what I wound up doing during the last round of replacing my bras for smaller bands. figleaves.com had some good stuff, which is where I wound up going. But even there, most of my choices were pretty plain. Still--at least the bras fit. :)

[shadowfae.livejournal.com]

*nods*

I'm a big girl, but I carry my weight in my ass, boobs and belly, NOT my ribcage, lol. I was so sick of having my bra band up around my neck in the back (not to mention my straps digging into my shoulders due to my boobs pulling down in the front) ...

There are more pretty bras on the Figleaves site now, but you have to put your house up for a second mortgage to get them :/

If only they'd stop punishing people's purses for needing a bit more material than others >:(

[silverthorne.livejournal.com]

Yeah, exactly. It's all in the boobs, guys (where, for a while at least, is where everyone wanted it to be). C'mon, now.

Somehow, I think the owner of the apt. complex I live in would object if I tried to put it up for mortgage...

Exactly. It's even worse for folks in plus sizes...not only do they (and me when I was up there) get nailed for underwear, but everything else, too.

[smillaraaq.livejournal.com]

*nods* It's kind of frustrating on the opposite extreme, too -- if you've got a broader back but need very small cups, the pickings are pretty slim. Somehow a lot of the manufacturers seem to think that a 36 or 38 B should have cups that are almost twice as big as a 34 B...and heaven help you if you're looking for an A in anything much bigger than a 34, especially if you don't want something that looks like a training bra or has enough padding to double as a bulletproof vest. :(

*nods*

This is my sister to a "t". We're exact opposites, and she has been so frustrated with finding small cup sizes with a lager bandwidth she has stopped wearing bras all together (unless a shirt is very sheer).

has enough padding to double as a bulletproof vest. :(

LOL

[skywardprodigal.livejournal.com]

I'm uh...depending on the cut? A 40 J or a 38DD.

>.>

[saskaia.livejournal.com]

These are lovely! I like the second one the best.

[skywardprodigal.livejournal.com]

I adore that color combination. My faves are the first and the second-to-last. Both Arabella's, I think. Trouble is, I love white tees. >.>

[ohinternets.livejournal.com]

These are all gorgeous, but I would be shocked if they had them in the 36 I's that I need :[

[skywardprodigal.livejournal.com]

Dude, your tiny ribcage and your rack.

Your poor shoulders. :(

[golden-lady.livejournal.com]

I tried on one of those when I got fitted at Nordstrom's. It's quite pretty, and strong yet delicate, but it just didn't fit my particular breasts very well. I'd be willing to try some of those other styles, though.

And let me just say that Nordstrom is the truth when it comes to bra fitting. The two bras I got that day are the best fitting bras I have ever owned, and I don't think I will ever shop for bras anywhere else.
