This post is dedicated to what I wear UNDER my cute clothes, so if you aren’t cool with looking at pics of me in my bra then click away now. You’ve been warned ☺ Seriously.
I think everyone knows by now that I had some ginormous boobies. I think my biggest size was a 40 F. When I was larger I LOVED bras from Lane Bryant, they were not only comfy, but they were CUTE. I spent hundreds and hundreds of dollars on bras because I was always on the hunt for the best bra, you know the one that made my boobs look smaller. Guess what, when you are that big it’s pretty much not possible. Still I was in my 20’s and I wanted to wear cute bras like everyone else my age.
Some of my Favorites!
Not so great on me now.
Now I am a 34D, which makes me even happier than wearing a smaller size jean! I seriously HATE my boobs with a passion. They used to hurt when I ran, made it impossible to shop for button up shirts, and made bra shopping very expensive. I can’t just wear any old bra from Target, I did buy a few cheap ones from Kohl’s while I was losing weight, but you can totally tell they are not doing a great job.
I went to Dillard’s and decided to bite the bullet and buy 3, a nude, a black, and a strapless. After trying on about 12 different pairs I came home with 2 winners and one loser.
Winner: Black with a slight push up.
Winner: Strapless with convertible straps
No joke, I've tried LOTS of strapless bras and this one is HANDS DOWN the best one ever!! No pulling, tugging, adjusting, it was so comfortable!!!
The cute dress is Kiki La Rue :)
Loser: Nude push up
I am just not a fan of true 'push ups' every time I bent over they kinda fall out the top. I'm going to exchange this one for one I tried on and didn't get because it seemed a little 'granny-ish' but I think will be better under t-shirts and such.
Sorry, I can't remember the brand!
Now, you’ve all seen me pretty much naked so you know I’ve got some lumps and bumps {don’t we all!} . I’ve tried Spanx’s and they annoy the crap out of me, I have to work up a sweat getting them on and off, considering how much I pee, no thank you. I randomly bought this shaper at Wal Mart one day and I have to say for 15 bucks it’s pretty freaking awesome.
1. No rolling down my stomach when I sit
2. Wasn’t hard to get on or off
3. No cutting into my thigh and making a ring or lump
4. Looked good under the clothes
I also saw this GENUIS idea on Pinterest the other day, to wear a ruffled slip under a too short dress. Umm, yes please! So naturally I immediately went to Etsy and found some. The Slip Shop has TONS of options, colors, fabric, and has adjustable lengths. I may have found a new addiction, hoping mine come in ASAP.
Ok enough about the underwear’s ☺
Don't forget about my Workout Wednesday Link Up tomorrow!
