I’ve been at this blogging thing for a few months now and have been watching the search terms that lead readers to my blog. I’ve noticed many different search terms involving “wide breasts”. What has become painfully clear from my search for well fitting bras, as well as from reading search terms on my blog […]

Review: Claudette Cool Cotton Sweetheart Demi Bra CD8008
The Claudette Cool Cotton Sweetheart Demi is the third of a trio of Claudette bras I ordered from HerRoom. Like the En Dentelle and Sophia Minx, it was two sizes too large in the cups. This will be a brief review, since the Cool Cotton was the wrong size. Band: Very comfortable, I would not […]
Review: Elila Moulded Softcup Bra 1803
This will be a brief review on the Elila. The bra and fit do not suit me at all, and and the sizing was wrong…so it’s difficult to give a thorough review. The Elila is a spacer foam fabric softcup bra, and since I am a fan of the Fantasie Rebecca and spacer foam fabric, […]
Review: Chantelle C Chic 3 Part Plunge 3641
The C Chic is a breakthrough bra, of sorts, for me. Though the sizing was wrong, and the cups too round (translation = narrow) – it proved that 3 part plunge bras are probably my best hope for a good fit. A big bonus – the C Chic is available in five colors, and it […]
Review: Claudette En Dentelle Underwire Demi Bra 12009
The En Dentelle is a gorgeous, gorgeous lace cup bra with vertical seaming. Everything about it should have worked. HerRoom measurements put it at a 2 1/2″ gore and band side seam (in a 34B), and the cups are supposed to be rigid and supportive. If you’ve avoided Claudette because the bras look too skimpy […]
Review: Freya Moulded Deco Plunge AA4234
I must admit a soft spot for the Freya Deco. It was my first wired bra (that I wore for more than an hour). I’ve owned and worn the Deco in a 38F and 36FF. The 38F was my first wired bra in my “correct” size, and the 36FF was my first bra after I’d […]
3 Out and Waiting
I currently have three orders out for bras and swimsuits. A return with BareNecessities, a swimsuit order with BiggerBras, and a third with HerRoom because I had a moment of self-pity and went a little wild for Claudette bras, while simultaneously deciding I must have a soft cup bra. It’s moments like this where I […]
Review: Curvy Kate Daily Boost Balcony CK1801
The idea that some company, somewhere, makes bras to fit my wide breasts is a something I cling to. If you look at my Lingerie Drawer, you’ll notice the CK Daily Boost is a bra I tried but do not own. I really, really wanted this bra to work, because I wanted Curvy Kate to […]
Review: Enell Sport 100
My newest sports bra is an Enell Sport 100. My previous sports bra was a Freya Firm Control Wire-Free Spacer Sports Bra with Racerback. While it was a definite improvement on wearing a “regular” bra to for workouts, the Freya was uncomfortable for me because the racerback styling pulled across my shoulder muscle and cut […]
Fit Points: Straps
Sometimes we get so caught up in cup size and band size, we forget about the finer fit points that can determine if a bra is a good fit. After noticing the Fantasie Rebecca straps and armholes were more comfortable than the Cleo Juna’s, I decided to compare the bras I currently own to figure […]
