I am seriously peeved.

Victoria's Secret (at least the store near my office) is no longer carrying any bras above 38DD in their stores. Sure, they can be ordered online, but I'd prefer to try a bra on to ensure that it actually fits.

Pardon me while I pout over this. :-/

Then again, I suppose it wasn't *that much* of a loss for me, as they only had two or three styles that I could actually wear. Still, I am rather bummed over this.

In the meantime, I did want a better bra, as the padded t-shirt style are for the birds (the padding warps really nicely and doesn't retain its shape, giving me a swell implant-like ridge), and the Vic's Secret (and Lane Bryant - sorry, Kellie) bras aren't the most supportive.

So, what's a girl to do? Why, run across the street to Macy's, of course, and finally break down & pay full price (over $50) for a damn good Walcoal bra, that actually fits. Yes, I almost cried when I paid what I did for one bra - especially since I could get 2 at my former purveyor of bras for the same price. But, I've known Walcoal to be really good, very high quality, and certainly worth the money.

This is what I bought - only it's in a swell periwinkle blue: Ooooh, Boobies!

I know, I'll probably be teased because I want the girls to actually be supported - or as Kellie might consider it, "restrained". But, I'd rather not give off the appearance of Free Range Boobies - especially in public. (Yeah yeah, I know, it makes me seem all prim and proper ... so what.)
