I Love... Buying Bras That Fit!
I should add a couple of caveats to that statement - bras that fit, that don't cost the earth and that come in nicer colours and designs than 'frumpy white' or 'frumpy black'. The reason for this post is that Primark have just launched a new range of bras that come in D-F cups, which is unusual for the cut price shops. They're really pretty, fit really nicely and only cost £6 so I'm really pleased with the 3 that I've bought. I've always had trouble getting bras to fit, since I was old enough to wear one. When I was about 7 I was desperate to fill out and have boobs and now I would happily give some of them up to be able to wear nice clothes and underwear without feeling like a complete lump. Even when my mum took me to be measured the first time when I was about 12 and I was a 32C, the shop girl told her I was a 'big girl' in a really accusing voice, like it was all her fault! So I am used to not being able to buy cheap bras. When I was a bit thinner and I went down to a 34C again it was great because I could just buy a bra and know it would fit but now I'm up to a 36F and showing no signs of going back down, it's that much harder to get nice underwear. In Evans the other day they only had huge industrial sized bras that looked so unflattering and frumpy and cost £20 each. I was really disheartened. Then tonight, lo and behold, Primark the girl on a budget's saviour steps in with pretty, frilly, pink and blue and green bras for £6 and less! Now I just need to find a stockist of size 16 jeans that fit size 16 people and don't cost £75 per pair...
