I’ve HAD it with Bras! Who designs these things?! It MUST be men!

I nearly undressed in Kohl’s recently, while discussing the issue with the unfortunate young woman who innocently asked if she could help me! The more I described what I wanted in a bra, and what bugs me about all of the bras I buy, the more my current pick seemed to bite into my left breast!

Never fails, they look pretty and comfortable and beckon to me. I part with my cash, just to find out that I’ve bought another torture chamber!

Who said all bras MUST have under-wires? Where did all the comfortable bras go? Did they ever truly exist??

    There are such things!

    I hate bras myself, but I have found a few comfy ones that are not lined, that i found at target.

    I hate wired bra’s especially when they break and dig into your skin!!

    Join the club! I can't stand it every time I buy a bra because it looks great, and it never fits the way I want it to either! For me, underwire is a must, but comfortable ones, and there are hardly any of those around! I told my 18 year old we have to reserve a day to do nothing but bra shop! I"m not looking forward to it! If I could just bring Oprah along with me

    I know what you mean, Donna! Where is “O” when we need her? We all watch those shows, but, did we take notes?

    Ladies, I actually have a friend who invented a FABULOUS bra, and was on American Inventor with the bra. We were in Ladies Who Launch together Incubating our businesses. Anyhow, her bra(s) are gorgeous, BUT, more importantly NO UNDERWIRE! She uses a lycra “sling” which enhances your cleavage! They are sexy looking, and comfortable! I will have to check in with her…

    I had my mid-life crisis after 40 (41 actually). I went on a journey of self-discovery: reading books, “interviewing” anyone who’d talk to me, praying, thinking and taking time to just breathe, meditate….and determined that life is meant to be lived fully, jump in with both feet, take chances, and remember to laugh and have fun!
