On this day, I finally took the advice of the Lane Bryant sales girl and went to Intimacy to get a for-real, no-shit, professional bra fitting.
If you've ever seen Double Divas on Lifetime, you already have an idea of how this goes.
They call it 'Holistic' fitting or some nonsense; the basic gist is they access how your current bra is fitting, where and what your problems and issues are, what you're looking for and throw a bunch of bras on you. They help you get in and out of everything, so if you're shy, it's probably not the best place for you. However, if you like to be pampered, do it. They offer you water (champagne would have been better) and you sit in the room in a silky robe in between try-ons. They do all the running around.
The first bra was amazing. Everything afterwards couldn't compare. Of course when I mentioned this, my sales clerk told me that was because the first bra was the "Lamborghini" of bras. Of course. And it had a price tag of $234. Eeek! This is the plight of big breasts.
At any rate, the Lane Bryant sales girl referenced above told me to get fitted, find the brand that works for me, and then find it on eBay. I took this advice too, because I'm all about saving money, dammit. I didn't find the style on eBay, but I found it on a France site for $118+shipping. Booyah.
Have you ever had a no-shit bra fitting? Thinking about it now?
(Coincidentally, the day after this day, I decided to wear no bra. I thought it was ironic.)
