I generally get fitted at least once a year or so, more often if my weight has been changing. And it's not just a matter of "Does this fit reasonably well?" -- usually, there are a few different sizes that'll look pretty good in the dressing room, but only one of them will be comfortable and still look good after wearing it all day.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

wasn't there a Buffista a while back who turned out to be one of the 0.005% of women wearing exactly the right size?

When I got fitted last year, it turned out that I was wearing the right size. Total fluke.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

turned out to be exactly the right silhouette for all the 50s vintage dresses I still fit into. They were just ugly as sin, very large and white and industrial,

I think those things have to go together, don't they? 50s dresses and white industrial bras, I mean. At least they do in the movies!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

ita, IIRC. She was kind of disappointed that she was correct.

Olga Demis are my One True Bra, so naturally they're phasing them out. Bastards.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Welcome home Stephanie!

You would think I need a bigger cup or band, but that doesn't seem to work, they are both clearly too big. Also, My boobs can't be a G-cup! My boobs are smaller than other women's boobs! I feel like taking a picture of my chest to show you that I can't possibly be that big!

Pretty much every time I go to the Towne Shop to get fitted, I end up as a different size. And the size and bra they tell me always fits perfectly. (They're also really good at figureing out which bra you should be wearing, not just what size. A lot of brands seem to assume that, once you get above a DDD, you must also have really wide shoulders, and I'm above a DDD with really narrow shoulders, so a whole lot of bras end up with the straps slipping off constantly. They're able to just look at me and tell me exactly which bra I should be wearing.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yep, atheists don't believe in protecting their children.

Trust my rage

One thing I don't get about cup size - it's a measure of the...volume? of the breast, right? My breasts have def. changed since nursing (I was trying to explain how but it wasn't working) and they don't seem as big to me as the official measurement indicates.
