My favorite ones are Champion, but they're old, this [championusa.com] is the closest I can find to the style I have. The rest are just junk and random. I really need all new ones since I wear sports bras for work every day. Maybe I'll just start wearing my regular bras that have fallen out of circulation.
I'm a 32 dd now and if I get them big enough for my boobs the band is too big for the most part.

What sports bra do you wear ayoungpretender?
VSX makes nice ones. My daughter likes this one: http://www.victoriassecret.com/br...earch=true

Usually the $10 off bra codes work on it. Used to be $26.50 not too long ago. I stocked up at SAS.

Thanks! What size did you get? I'll probably get 32DDD. I used to love the BBV strapless in 34DD, but I recently noticed it kind of cuts across the top. Plus the band is starting to stretch out too, so the support isn't as good as it was when I first got it. The rest of VS's straplesses I can only wear for extra support with a bra top, since they either don't fit right or have crappy support.
I ordered 34DD, but I'm considering trying a 34D also. I'm thinking it will be tighter & offer even more support. The 34DD does work. I'd be happy to post a review, when I order the 34D. That would probably be too late to help you out though. This week we're buying college books, so I won't be able to order it until next week or the week after.

Thanks, I have a white barcode one. Don't remember when I bought it but it is the only one that fits.

Yeah, I have the same problem. I tend to just get them small, since a tight sports bra isn't as big of a deal as an ill-fitting regular bra.

Thanks! I never think to get sports bras from VS. I always want to spend my discounts on something else, not what I actually need.

Quote from GoHeels :
Do you all every order your pumps a 1/2 size big to be able to wear foot petals in them? I'm tempted, but I'm afraid they'll be too big & I'll regret it. On a similar note, there's a pair of peep toes heels I would love to order, but they're a 5.5. I normally wear a 5. I don't think foot petals will help make my feet appear longer to fill in the peep toe. laugh out loud
No, I try to order the same exact size. Half size too big means that my foot will slip out when I walk EXPECIALLY pumps and then there's extra pressure on my toes and ball of foot to try to keep the heel on. I also put on those non-slip back grippers on the back of the heel, right below the Achilles tendon part to try to keep those shoes on. It's terrible.

I suggest ordering your correct size because you will break into them. I have a wide foot, so it makes it much worse to find comfy styles. shake head

But if I'm wearing shoes with pretty straps and can't find my size, yes, I do order half size larger because the straps will keep my foot secure.

Thanks for the feedback. You've talked me into ordering a 5. Sometimes, I hate my feet being so little. There are so many more options in 5.5 than in 5. I would never be able to choose, if I could wear a 6. Oh, the options..... OMG laugh out loud

If she asks you again, tell her you do not recall. You have purchased several things in the last few months. Along with being preoccupied with your real life and her wedding, you cannot keep up with where you purchased her shower gift.

That is the nice version. Let me know if you want me to PM the dirty version.
PMing you Evillaugh
Quote from azn1x6flame :
Just...don't go..I mean, she says.."IF" you would like to attend....

AND OMG - she told you to your face that she wants to return your gift?! How incredibly rude is that! You have so much patience. I would've been out a long, long time ago.
The day I gave it to her (which was done strategically so she'd think we were fine and could all ride to Tahoe in one car) she was hintimating "Nordstrom's has these return without receipts, Macy's too... where is yours from?" . That was the first time I told her to re-gift it if it didn't fit, it wasn't worth a return. She's thinking if she asks enough, I'll crack like the rest of 'em. This time I think I'll ask for it back Sly

I saw your reply to azn. It makes sense now. Your custom is like ours. My DH & I paid for our wedding, but my parents had already paid for an expensive wedding for me. shake head My parents did pay for the rehearsal dinner, because DH's parents weren't thrilled about us getting married. There's no way I would have asked them for anything. They thought our marriage wouldn't last. I guess we showed them. laugh out loud Normally, we would pay for a girl's wedding & a boy's rehearsal. It's so much nicer, when a family member is the groom. Stick Out Tongue

That tradition always gets me thinking- when the bride's fam plays for the wedding, is that what would have been the dowry in another time? Scratchchin I know- some things are just tradition, but that doesn't stop me from wondering how they came to be. Am I worth 2 goats and some chickens? Scratchhead Hopefully the goose that lays golden eggs! woot

Not a bad idea! It would be fun to see the troll's appalled face Evillaugh

You know, I bet people had some really cracking farms back in the day with just 2 goats and some chickens!!

Too funny! laugh out loud That's a good point. I don't know how that tradition got started either. I'm sure a google search would solve the mystery, but I'm too lazy today to look for it. Embarrassment
