OK,

So I am very busy with work... My job is pretty much my life. I'm not a typical girl, I don't like to shop. I'm an "in and out and on my way" type of girl. And there's a lot of shops in Durango that quite frankly don't appeal to me.

Every now and then a girl needs new clothes. I'm cheap when it come to clothes. It comes from years and years of using bleach just about everyday of my life.

So I discovered last year the convince of on line shopping. WOO HOO.
I was a little reluctant at first.. Wasn't sure of how things would fit, blah blah blah.

But oh how delighted I was when everything comes and fits so well!

I have bought tops, bottoms, shoes, sweaters, even bedding.

So I thought I'd give bras a whirl....

Tragic mistake.

It seemed to fit so well, when I first put it on. It lifted and separated!! Remember those old commercials...
Anyway no wired digging into my sides, good coverage, no muffin tops, etc.

Well, I, during the course of the day discovered the bra equivalent of the pantie wedgie..

All freakin day long.

It kept "creeping up" I can't really explain it. But it was like a muffin top, but just on the bottom. oh my life these days.......

Yeah, and it was a busy day. Really REALLY busy day.. Made it extra fun.

I just kept hoping karma would show a little mercy on me and when I waited on a customer my bra would creep up around my neck.. Nothing as cute as a bra necklace.. <<<<<<<sigh>>>>>>>>>


Moral of the story... Don't buy bras on line.
Just a bad idea

I learned along time ago to try on a bra before i buy it, had a whole drawer of them, what a waste of money !!
I'm not a big shopper neither, but thanks for the caution Shannon, i'll remember that.

Cheers, Debbie
 
Shannon, you are such a treasure! You've made my day.

(If I've not used proper manners with such a short answer, no offense was intended. It's been a long and busy day, and I'm just trying to wind down.)
 
I completely agree Shannon! Oh and add lingerie to that list!! AYE!
 
I have just splatered my sip of Drink over the screen...

Thanks for the Chuckle .. ( and advice)
 
Shannon, you do have a way with words.

First thread I read this morning. Perfect way to start the day. Thanks for the laugh and the advise.

I too hate shopping. Especially clothes for myself. I spend a couple of hours and either buy nothing or just an item or two. I rarely shop for clothes and even more rarely for bras. HATE IT!!
 
I hate shopping, too!!!!! Especially for clothes....

Never have anything good to wear....always jeans..

For years avenue made the best fitting pair of jeans the were a staple in my wardrobe, my mom would buy me 3 pairs every christmas and a bunch of shirts, underwear and a couple of bras(goddess, only ones I would wear for 12 years) and I would be all set for a whole year...Woo hoo!!!

Now since the gastric bypass, I have to shop every 2-3 weeks for some new pants and evything...I hate it....

Shannon, I too had a bra that did this...as long as I didn't move it seemed to fit, but as soon as you move it slowly creeps up and over the tata...It was awful...I threw that 35.00 bra in the trash and never looked back...Bras are definately not an internet purchase...

Thanks for the laugh..
 
Shannon, you have provided a visual that will stay with me for a long time. :) Thank you for that, and for the advice.

Connie... never too short and never ill mannered. ;)

Franca!!! Where have you been? You were next on my list to PM.

I would have taken the bra off! :) and made the work day go easier.

Did ya ever have an underwire poke through and harpoon you? lol
I pulled the underwire out and had one pointing north and one pointing south...that's when I took the bra off ! Thank God I had a sweatshirt on!
 
oh my! Your thread just made my morning...LOL!!!!!!!!!!
Yup, those ol' "bra-necklaces" always seem to happen at THE most inoportune (sp?) time!!
I have a visual in my mind of you standing with a customer wondering if it's about to pop out and land on your head ...!!!!!!
Poor ol' you....but thanks for sharing something all us gals can relate to !!
:) jeannie
 
Been there too .... bra shopping is second only to bathing suit shopping. I'd rather hand wire and tape an old fashioned colonial bridal bouquet.
 
I think us guys need a visual of this problem so we can help you solve it.

We need frontal, sideway, shirt off picture so we can access this problem......

No matter what size pants I buy, I always have plumbers crack when I bend down to pick up the buckets :) I think it's my little gut, it keeps getting bigger, and my pants just fall below it :dunno:
