Yes it does infuriate me!

Has anyone ever tried these Wireless Cotton Bras? [victoriassecret.com] I am looking for a comfy bra to wear when I'm laying around the house/cleaning ect and not going anywhere. They don't need to pushed up at all times. Wink

I haven't bought them in a few years. They used to be comfy but would get bumpy when you washed them. That's why I haven't bought any lately. Plus there was a deal a few years ago when we stocked up on them for almost nothing!

they're ok. the cotton bras in general, like alvsy said, don't hold up very well in the wash. i haven't worn my wireless much, so i've only washed it once or twice, but i had a full coverage cotton bra that i liked more and it started to warp after awhile.

i like the wireless fit, tho. but to me it's not as comfy as my angels demi! (the old version)

nod the boning they put on the sides of their wireless bars is more uncomfortable that underwire for me.

i wear the vsx and pink sports bras for comfort or i used to. i'm in a transition stage right now with my bras. no underwires for awhile plus i have to find bras that don't rub my incisions.

has anyone tried to use the $10 off any bra code that requires the acc more than once?

it applies it to my order but will not process the order (says i have to call). i'm thinking it's the code.

that must be it! all i know is, it's still not that comfortable. i have to take it off right away when i get home.

btw i've been trying that EL invisible makeup! it's infuriating trying to find a shade match. it's one of those that darkens a shade or two after you apply it. they keep matching me to the CN (it does run warm for a 'cool-neutral' tho). i've tried 3cn1 and 2cn2 and the 2cn2 works better for me. i also have 2wn1 and it is just a tad light. the 2wn2 might be the right match for me (the 3 turned out to be super duper dark on me). have you tried any? if you do, keep in mind it darkens a little bit! (sorta like the teint idole new formula except teint idole darkens a LOT)

i might be near a bloomies tonight so i'm not sure what to buy to get the gift! maybe Advance Night Repair... laugh out loud today i have a couple of dry flakes that are highlighted by the invisible makeup. boo. i tried DWL in 3 and i like the formula, but i'm not sure about the color match. i might be in between 2 and 3.

Do you have the Sexy Tee bras? How do they hold up in the regular wash?

it works on both accounts but when you try to use it on the same account twice it does that.

i liked those wireless bras before, so i have many. then i realized the sides give my girls a weird shape!!! they tend to spill on the sides and the boning isn't enough to control them. what a waste.

oops, i already ordered the S.

i only have 1, the demi i think. i got it a few years ago, but stopped wearing it kuz it started to gap in the front. not sure if it was something that happened in the wash or just my girls being weird.

thanks for the review of sizing. i was going to order a M anyway - this confirmed it. i got a pink yoga bra in a S and it fits, but it's super snug. i remember i used to buy M's so i'm going to stick to M.
