Yesterday I went bra shopping. This ranks up there with shopping for jeans, a bathing suit, having a root canal and your yearly trip to the gyno. All emotionally painful, but something women have to endure.
I have friends of all shapes and sizes and every single one of them from the sveltely to the most curvaceous will agree that finding clothes that fit is hard to do!
First off, what is with the shirt sizes? Every year the shirts get smaller and lower cut. Why can’t they make shirts that are stylish yet fit someone bigger than a size 4 and smaller than a size 20? I always feel that I have to choose between wearing something that shows “the girls” or something that resembles a tent.
Which brings me to “the girls” and bra shopping…God bless the certified bra fitter. I mean seriously, what did women do before we had an expert tell us exactly what size bra we truly needed? I know plenty of men who would like this job, but women do this job and all I have to say is God Bless You.
Bra fitters are like nurses; but instead of a stethoscope around their neck they have a tape measure. While the nurse waits outside the examining room for you to undress, the bra fitter hovers outside your dressing room door waiting for you to dress.
All modesty is thrown aside as they evaluate cup size, cup shape and if the band is the right size or if there is gapping. They take their job seriously and they are good at what they do.
With the help of the Certified Bra Fitter I found a bra that I loved!
Gas to and from the mall…….$5
Price of 2 bras…..$160
Comfort…….Priceless

I have been thinking about seeing a bra fitter. I am kind of worried about it. I never imagined myself running around topless in a department store.
If anybody could run around topless in a department store - it would be you, closer to 40 everyday!!
I keep telling dd that she needs to have a fitting, but the thought horrifies her. I just think it's something you have to do every so often, because it makes such a difference!
