I'm trolling around the Sears website yesterday checking out the bras. Some of you out there can relate to this - it doesn't really matter what size you are - buying a good fitting bra is something of a pain in the butt. Not to mention the chest.
First of all - not all bras that are the same size are really the same size. You have to try them all on. But you can only generally take in three at a time. However, you almost always have to try a band size and a cup size up or down based on your own experience from your own size. It is nearly impossible to get out of the fitting room without doing two trips. By the time you try on your 5th bra they all feel like crap - and you can't quite remember if the 2nd one you tried on was really as good as you thought.
So why am I looking at a website? Well it occured to me that looking at the online and establishing on or two styles to try would save me a lot of hassle at the store. To keep track of what I looked at they have a wish list button. They inform me that it is very handy for me to send my wish list to friends and family by email - this way I might receive these items as gifts in the future.
Those at the smaller end of the spectrum and the larger end of the spectrum have a hard time finding the perfect bra at a department store. But I heard about a place called Secrets from Your Sister that is supposed to be fantastic at bra fitting though the bras are pricey - around 100 bucks. But better 100 that fits then the 50 dollars that don't I suppose. So if you are looking to buy me a gift for no particular reason I will save you the hassle of going to the lingerie department with a print out in your hand - give me cash!
