The Upper Half

It was not my intention to have this be lingerie week, but now it is.
So, today's topic is Brassieres

The most important thing about a bra is the fit.
I watch a lot of Bravo T.V and I know how crucial a proper fitting bra can be.

I am a little on the larger side, and because of that I do mail order bras.
The only place I've seen bras on the rack that fit me was Las Vegas.
So anyway, it's worth it for me to have the Mail Lady deliver my upper foundation garments as opposed to having one giant lumpy mega-breast and wire marks in my armpits from an ill fitting Wal-Mart bra.

My bras are of the four to five hook and shoulder pad variety.
That can make running them kind of tricky
I have to hook it up backwards and then do the spin around with a drop and tuck to get everything lined up right.


That's my going to town bra.

I also have sleeping bras and around the house bras.
What?
Like you didn't see that coming.

My sleeping bras are super soft, don't have any wires and are shiny and silky.
I would compare my sleeping bras to the ladies of the fifties wrapping their head in toilet paper and sleeping on satin pillow cases so as not to mess up their hairdo.
You don't want any drag while your sleeping.
Continued support, yet ease of movement.


My casual around the house bras are more structured like my town bras, but don't offer the same lift and separation.
Those town bras are expensive and I wouldn't want to waste them on feeding the chickens or walking the pig.
Often times though an old town bra will be demoted to an around the house bra.


It is very important that I mention, when my husband does laundry, he can properly identify each and every bra.

Unlike underpants, I don't have an issue with some people going braless.
If your breasts are comparable in size to those of a thirteen year old boy, you have a pass.
Any bigger than that, no pass.

1. My friend Lindy hooks up, steps into and pulls up her bra.
2. I have another friend who puts her bra on like a shirt, over her head.
3. None of the pictures featured are of me
