I don't know about the rest of you, but the hardest thing for me is finding a bra that I really like.  One that fits well, is comfortable, sexy and reasonably priced.  The one that I have fond and like best, so far, is Victoria's Secret Embroidered Satin Classic Bra.  Not sure I really like the matching panties though, I think I they would be much better without the embroidery.

yep anything from Victoria's Secrect. ;)

If I was just a smaller frame....
VS doesn't carry 42 sizes.

My favorite bra is my first (and only) one.  ;D

DKNY Contour Underwire.  Very comfy.

My favriot are the sports brash type by VS that have spegiety<sp?> straps  :)  Kinda makes them perfect to wear with allot of my teeshirts and tanks with out that tacky over wide bra strap showing...  I own 7 of them... used to be 10 but <shrugs,> some dissapeared.  It dosnt seem that VS makes them anymore...  :(

I love the victoria secret very sexy push up. It is a padded bra but the cups are soft, not stiff like most padded cups. It creates the best cleavage and gives you a nice round smooth look. Since the cups are soft your breasts are not stuck to your chest like with most padded bra's and you still get a bounce. Only draw back is they can be very hot during the summer. I love mine and don't wear anything else. They come in an assortment of sizes and colours.

As far as lingerie is concerned, anything made by Chantelle!

tink :icon_chick:

From what I've seen, I really like Chantelle too; however, I can't seem to bring myself to pay 50 to $80 on one bra.  I think I'll stick with my $22 Victoria's Secret bras.  I have 4 of them and I really like them (I'm always tempted to buy another). :angel:).  I might also have to try one of those DKNY bras, they look like really nice too.  Haven't been able to find that Warner's one yet.

This is why you take advantage of the half yearly, anniversary and end of the month sales.  I never pay full price for anything unless I really, really want it.

I really like Body by victoria.
But I have some bra
s from Calvin Clein and Tommy Hellfigger that are also very Comfortable.

Absolute favorite though..

Probably my Victorieas Secret Yoga Bra.

It has a continous shaping underwire , and is kinda like wearing a sports bra but with underwire support. very nice for working out or lounging.

I like the underscore 2025 by Jc Penny.

I don't get the VS worship, is this a US thing. Barely anybody wears them here in Canada.
And I've heard the quality is nothing to write home about considering the price.

Calvin Klein bras are sleek and solid. Wearing a rose 34B pushup right now.

Sloggi makes a very comfortable non wire bra for more casual wear, otherwise I prefer Calida. Calida is not as available as VS or Warners, and can be expensive, so I'd like to recommend Sierra Trading Post as a potential source. The prices there are best that I've found for Calida. Sometimes the matching panties are available as well.

I've got to say my lined demi bras from the Angels collection at Victorias Secret. They are very comfy and I have to say I look AWESOME in them!!! ;D

I do have a couple of others that are kinda like the LD bras but they are cheap and don't give as much support or lift.

I recently bought a new one, several actually (so many sales going on I couldn't help it :)), but I did get one bra that is by far the most comfortable bra I have ever worn, yet it's sexy too. It is the Vanity Fair Satin Solutions Bra.  I bought it from herroom dot com for $20.80.  If you use the herroom search engine and type in  "vanity fair 75-233" it will take you right to it.  If you find your size there I would highly recommend it.  I am even thinking of buying another.  Of course, I also like my new Victoria's Secret Very Sexy Gel Push up Bra too  :).

oh yeah, one other thought.  I ordered my new bras, etc., online, the day after Christmas and recieved my Vanity Fair bra before New Year's Eve.  Didn't recieve my Victoria's Secret order until today (1-3).  I think I will be doing business with herroom again. :)   

Playtex Cross your heart for all day wear.  Warner's shine on for sexy evening wear.

I've almost always wear a Wonderbra. It may not actually do anything for my figure (I'm still very small), but I feel better wearing them.

Hi all,
  Being a 'larger' girl, I have tried 'Just My size' and 'Maidenform' in 44C and they were ok.  since I have lost 80 pounds, I now fit nicely into a 40C.
  I recently bought an 'Ambrielle' bra from JC Penney.  It is wonderful!  Padded, uplifting, underwire, balconnet and ON SALE!!! less than $20. Has a nice lace overlay, and looks really cute peeking out the top of a cami.
  An earlier post said VS doesn't go to 42....  They do, but in limited styles and ONLY online or by catalog.  The Ambrielle line goes to 42DD.  Not that it will fit everyone, but at least they are in stock at most JC Penney stores so you can see and pick out the style you want.
  Since it was a bra sale, I also picked up 2 smooth padded 40B bras for under sweaters. one white, one black.  They work out very nicely and fill out the sweater just as I wanted them to.
  Happy Bra hunting!!

I can't help thinking of the line, "The difference between a crossdresser and a transsexual is that a crossdresser can't wait to get home and put on her bra, while a transsexual can't wait to get home and take off her bra."

So true and why many (trans/natal)women don't wear them when they don't have to, even if genetics wasn't so kind to them in the war with their body and gravity. But then it's why many transwomen are like developing girls and want to wear one when it's not a necessity. Go figure.

For me, I like Wacoal's lace bras and Jockey day bras. Being a A+ I can choose not to wear one. Ok, wear one when I have to.

Unfortunately, I really do need to wear a bra. It has nothing to do with any kind of breast development, it has to do with a feeling of my breasts being missing, as if they were surgically removed. The bra helps a great deal in alleviating the sensation. 

The one I've got on?  I like to wear some more than others but have begun buying extras of the ones I really like, so I'm wearing those more.  I recently bought an extra four of an underwire from Avenue (enticed by sales and coupons, so my purchase prices were $22, $20, and 3 x $10) and would have bought more had they stocked more in a 44B; as it was I had to visit three stores to find the ones I did purchase.

In the past I've bought Just My Size, Cacique (Lane Bryant), K-Mart house brands (don't laugh, when you get a bra whose cups fit you, you grab it!) and Playtex.  I still wear some of them when the mood fits...which is more often lately, as I put on a bra after I take off my nightgown, when I get up.

victorias secret very sexy for me   i have all the colors and matching panties

ronda

Vassarette 75-440, 38C.

Hard to find, but the fit is fantastic!

I like wearing a selection of the fashion bras for special occassions when I want to look sexy, but for everyday wear my favourite style for confort and looks is an underwire moulded cup bra from "Marks & Specncer" here in the UK.

I wear A-cup strapless bras if I want to hide my flat chest. They are easy to put on and off.
