lisah - here are some nice ones in your size. [link]
EDIT: How abouts I put the actual website link? Duh.
I'm taking a girlfriend of mine to get measured. I've been told she tries her bras on over a tshirt.

Jill Scott has a line of bras at Ashley Stewart, for larger sizes.

You have been wearing the WRONG BRAS and you must wear these VERY EXPENSIVE ONES!" like $70 expensive.
I have the LB bra (I'm wearing it right now, as a matter of fact) It's good, not quite as good as the $70 type (Wacoal, I expect). I wait for the Nordstrom sales and see if they have any (which is how I found the first one I bought)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I would totally wear Jill Scott bras! Too bad I don't wear larger sizes...

Wait, where??!!

I've been wearing Wacoal for years. But their bras in the $40 range only go up to DD. Most of the $70 ones were Wacoal (as is the $60 super industrial one I bought) but I did try one that I can't remember the brand that was really pretty. But totally impractical for that kind of money.
I'll have to check the Rack (hardyhar) more often for sales.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
They also said the reason most women wear the wrong size is that when they get to the point where they are regularly buying their bras themselves, they just stick with the size they've always been. Also, that getting fitted can be embarassing, and that to admit to yourself you're something as large as you would only think a porn star would be requires some...psychological adjustment.

not your mom's socks.
lisah - I'll check w/ him... he texted about the right time that he was headed out, but he also had house full of sick this weekend.
I love the Towson Nordstroms bra ladies, though I hated the name of the bra they sold me. and the mashing. and the fact that DH wanted to make a band solely to be able to name it after the name of the bra they sold me. I miss the pre-baby 34-B/C days... and yes, mom, I know that she's not a baby anymore...

Once you have the Nordie's lady do the fitting, though, you can scout places like Filene's or TJ Maxx for the actual bras. I've found a ton of the pricy Wacoals for $15 - $25. As with everything at those stores, you can't need it today but if you drop by every so often they'll pop up.

Thanks, non-dumbassed at all Aimée! Ah! as I suspected, Goddess does actually make bras in my size but they just don't sell them on the Lane Bryant website.
I'm taking a girlfriend of mine to get measured. I've been told she tries her bras on over a tshirt.
Huh? Why? that's so crazy!!!
I love the Towson Nordstroms bra ladies
The one who fitted me yesterday has been there for years. Usually I like her but she was getting on my nerves. Possibly I hadn't had enough coffee.
