Sofia Vergara Wears a 32F Bra →
As vulgar & annoying as I find this woman (and as much as we’d all probably like her to shut up about her boobs), it’s very cool that she confessed her “weird” bra size. She told Allure in their September 2012 issue that she wears a 32F, which sounds accurate to me.
She could have given the typical “I’m a D” or “DD” response that every...

“Stella McCartney launches her new everyday lingerie range, the “lightest...”
–
I love the look Stella Mccartney bras - really lovely, chic & modern designs. However, online I have only seen them in 32 bands at the smallest. I’ve read reviews here & there which say the bands run snug, but I hear that about every designer label & personally haven’t...

Dear Lingerie Retail Giant,
You suck. More precisely, your size selection sucks. The sheer convenience of your stores in the US makes me sad I can’t shop there though. Please carry more sizes if you don’t want to lose business, as more and more women are realizing you suck. Sincerely, Woman with bra size outside of your range.
(The less diplomatic version of an email sent to Victoria’s Secret’s...
"High" Cup Sizes - Not "Large"
I have purposely been using the wording “high cup sizes” to refer to D+ cup sizes as opposed to “large cup sizes” in my blog. The reason for this has been touched on in the blog topics themselves - cup size is proportionate to band size. This is why “high cup size” is more accurate than “large cup size”. A D cup is not necessarily large. It has...

Where to Shop - List I
UPDATED 3/03/2012
A few more online boutiques to keep in mind when hunting for a bra in a 28 or 30 band.
www.lilleboutique.com is a luxury, pricey lingerie boutique carrying a few selections in the harder to find 30B-E sizes.
www.catrionamackechnie.com is an online clothing boutique which has sizes 28B-G & 30AA-G listed, but had little to no selection in most of these sizes (since...
Let's Band Together
Hi, I’m a thin, small-busted woman, and I wear a 28E or 30DD bra (depending on who makes it).
I see a lot of other bra blogs out there, articles on bras/boobs, and general buzz about large busted women getting properly fitted. If only they all were fitted correctly, then the size ceiling in the US might be broken, that ceiling which says nothing over DD exists. True, it would no doubt help...

The Essential T-Shirt Bra: Would it kill them to...
Many of us women might like to wear a pretty, lacy bra everyday, but it’s just not practical. No matter how well the fit, no matter how minimal the trimmings, these bras are just not versatile nor comfy enough for everyday. And so the plain ol’, nude colored “t-shirt” bra becomes the everyday staple for most women because it works under nearly everything. Even one of your...

No Over-the-Shoulder-Boulder-Holders, Please
I’m starting my blog off with a rant, the way any self-respecting amateur blogger should start a blog.
I’ve bitten the bullet and admitted what I have long been aware of, but avoided remedying: I am wearing the wrong bra size.
I did not want to deal with this because I knew my correct size would be difficult to find. By “difficult”, I mean I can’t just go down to...
