the trouble with having bras that fit --

-- is that you're so much more acutely aware of the ones that don't.

i have a source for bras that fit well here in the UK, so for now i'm all set.  but in the US, it's been ages since i bought a bra from anywhere other than Victoria's Secret, which, between my discovery of what a bra feels like when it fits properly and their redesigns to the detriment of anyone over about a B cup (memo:  stretchy is not especially supportive, yo!, and also, if the straps are adjustable, they should stay where a girl puts them; this business of the weight of the breast pulling the slide back down? not on), i'm thinking i'll need to switch.  who has recommendations?

positive features:  i am in favor of colors, but not so much of decoration.  i find lace to be scratchy and unpleasant, and also to show through quite a lot.  should really be opaque.  machine washable is good; i hang them to dry, but i can so rarely be arsed to wash by hand.  36DD at the moment (36E in british), but who knows, that could change.

filter opt-in offer again

last spring i created a filter where i'd be talking about "weight, size, exercise, that sort of thing" without bugging people who don't give a damn.  there've been some new people on board since then, so here's another invite.
