Does your Bra fit?

Remember Oprah had that show about making sure your Bra fits properly? Whelp, I was at Nordstrom today. I was on the lookout for a strapless bra for AZ. I start yakking with the sales lady, next thing I know she's fitting me for some new bras. This sales lady was one of the people on the Oprah show. Oprah flew her and about 5 other Nordstrom sales people to Chicago. Is that cool or what? Last time I bought a bra was when I worked downtown Seattle about 8 years ago.

I go to Dillard's to buy mine and I get fitted each time. It's kind of weird, but it's definitely worth it (especially if you are "endowed" like I am).

My SIL recommended it to me when I was pregnant and I've gone ever since.

ETA: I don't even know where the closest Nordstrum's is here.

I would be thrilled to find a bra that fits! I'm a 34A/B and do not want extra padding, pushups, underwires, etc., but for some reason the people who make bras cannot understand that some of us are happy being small. I wouldn't mind being a bit perkier, though, after 2 pregnancies, breastfeeding, etc., but I think you need surgery for that!

I'm a 32B we can be in same club. I don't need big boobs either. :)

You should try the Calvin Klien bras. That's what I bought the other day.

I would have loved to have been on that show. After having one breast reduction 20 years ago i sometimes wish i could have it done again. I had 8 lbs of boob removed three weeks after my 18th birthday. I was reduced to a B and i am now a 34DD. That is what i like to think anyway. I went to both LaSenza and La vie enrose and i tried on many bras. Both places sent me packing telling me they don't have my size. When we went to the states in February i went into this store called Bra world. The ladies there were so nice and extremely helpful but they didn't have anything either. They told me i am either a DDD or a small F. They carried both but not in a 34. Talk about a frustrating experience. I had one very sad out of shape bra that didn't fit me properly.
Well we finally went somewhere else and i bought three bras. I was tried and frustrated and only one really fits me properly. I wear the other two when my favourite is in the wash.
I would love to be a B again. I think DD 13 is going to be "over blessed" as well. She turned 13 Nov 30th and already she is almost out of an A and into a B.

I know mine doesn't fit properly they all need to be replaced and a fitting would be a good idea but I'm trying to lose some weight so I'm going to wait a bit longer.
