If you're making a bra with a DD cup, it really doesn't need to be padded. There really is too much of a good thing.

If you're making a bra with a AA or A cup, not all of them have to be padded. Some women don't mind, or know we aren't fooling anyone.

I am leaving work early today because I have a Dr. appointment. Lucky me! In fact, I'm leaving in 30 minutes! Extra long weekend for me! (by 2 hours)

But it's the year of the anti-nipple. For some women it takes padding to achieve this.

The gaucho and high boot trend is one even I notice, and I really hate it. A relative of it is pinstriped culottes over stilettoed boots, worn usually with a thin sweater and newsboy cap. I've yet to see this on anyone not Asian. Which is weird.

It is not the year for gauchos. Last year wasn't and next year won't be. It is never the year for gauchos. Really.

*pout* My new favorite pants are my gauchos. They are kind of flippy and I wear them with my Chucks. :)

Yeah, that's what I was going to say. Even those of us with smaller breasts we aren't necessarily trying to make bigger sometimes like the modesty of the lightly padded bra.

Love the new thread title!

Also, love gauchos. I am a proud gaucho wearing fool. I think every year should be the year of the gaucho. No strong feelings on the padded bra, though.

I'm just on the edge of getting sick. I hate that feeling.

I think every year should be the year of the Many Fashion Options, Including Bras.

Jessica = crazy.

Unless of course you ride The Pampas with your bolo at the ready.

I wish I had access to the photo of 7 year-old me (1977) in my Christmas outfit of short-sleeved tan sweater, tan gauchos, and brown tall boots. It's hysterical.
