Tara, Bravissimo are great. Their bras have always fit me so well, so make sure you are properly measured first and they should fit like a dream icon_smile.gif For once I feel lucky for living in the UK, I'm usually going nuts over the cost of shipping things over from the states, and then having to pay customs charges too!

I think we're just S.O.L. I was so excited when i got pregnant with my first baby . . . I just knew that I'd finally see letters of the alphabet beyond "A". Nope! No such luck. I didn't gain an OUNCE in the boob department with EITHER baby. And that was supposed to be one of the "perk"s of pregnancy! Oh well. You can't sag what you don't have, right???

I'm probably about the size most of you ladies want to be. I am a C cup but still have trouble finding something comfy. You mom's crack me up. Guess I'm a bad mom. My 4 yr old son loves to pick out lingerie for me. He cracks us up when we go shopping. He loves to shop and has no problems telling you if he thinks the clothing (of any sort) is cute or ugly. He has told me that a grandma would look better in whatever I was trying on...lol. He's very outspoken.

I do shop there and they have some good "boosters" . . . but I can't tell you how often the styles that I like tend to start with B cups. They often seem to be out of A's. I asked a sales lady once if that meant that A was so popular that they tend to sell out of it quicker . . . "Uh . . . no. We just don't get as many of that size in." I even had a sales person tell me that if I am a 36 A and they don't have A's then the equivalent size is 34 B so that should fit me. That was funny. Ain't no way I'm filling a B cup. Sad, but true.

Really, though, as bummed as I was that I didn't "blossom" with either pregnancy, I have to say that now with my post-baby body, it's nice that something is still a little bit "perky" and there's at least one part of my body that does not need to be reduced.

it really is said that if you go down a size around, you go up a cup--so if you can wear a 34 heck try the B----what ALWAYS killed me was them telling me to go up a size around & go down a cup size----WELL that's great IF you can wear the next size (around) up--but it's to big around, so no go for me on that one.

Sadly, I did try it. I could fit into the next size down but there were such gaps in the cups that I just could never fill. I am truly an A, nothing more than an A.
