Bare Necessities

I wore the same style bra for years and years.  While living in Atlanta in my early 20s, I went to Saks for a legit fitting.  The sales lady informed me that I was wearing the wrong size and that I was not a 34B but a 32A. Ouch! That hurt a little.  She directed me to underwire bras with padding.  I wore these replenishing multiple times and never questioning the comfort or style. Often, it is a challenge to find my size in the store.  Forget going to Victoria's Secret, they do not carry it.  I strongly dislike that store anyway but that is a rant for another day.

This past spring, Emily and I went to a local store to shop and take some pictures.  When we arrived, a friend was there trying on some pieces from a recent shipment.  I noticed that she was wearing a pretty and comfortable looking bralette. This spurred a conversation on bras and size which prompted me to rethink my choice in undergarments.  

My underwire/padded bras have now been pushed to the back of the drawer. Bralettes and Free to Be
Bras from Lululemon have taken their place.  Change is good...
AdiĆ³s underwire!

  1. LOL. I am making that change too. Wires are becoming bothersome.

    1. Ha! I'm wondering why it took me so long to figure out exactly how uncomfortable they are!
      Thanks for stopping by!
