where do you buy your bras from?

TheLovelyLady71 · Hermes

I've brought mine from VS, Freddie's, and Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart really (to me) does have some pretty nice looking bras, and nice variety, so..... Maybe you can check there too. Never brought any from Target.

VS, VS, VS. Relatively affordable (in most cases) and they know what they're doing. They're comfortable and the fit is superb.

erin · Chanel

usually target. sometimes vs if there is a sale.

Elle · Hermes

Kohl's! I wait for their extra 50% off sales and buy a couple at a time. They seem to have a good selection of sizes and brands, but then again I wear kind of an 'off' size and like a particular brand which they always seem to have and in my size to boot!

I'm actually headed there today, since my store is having the above mentioned 50% off sale today only .

I love love love the bras from the GAP. They seriously are the most comfortable bra's I've ever owned. They also have some seriously sexy bra/undie sets as well.

TJ Maxx and Marshalls they have calvin klein, maidenform, etc.. for nice ones (i have like five or six sets), trousseau (it's a boutique closeby).

VS all the way. I am a small 30/32 B and VS bras fit me best. I also love how I can go in and get sized everytime (never changes for me!) and talk to someone to get the best bra for what I am looking for. I will say though, I have been tempted to buy a Gap bra--very comfortable and good fit as well.

I'm also a 32 B jacL - I usually don't have very good luck at VS. Do you mind sharing which styles you like (and can find!)? From my experience, I didn't think VS made a size 30, and only a very few number of styles in a 32 B.

My favorite bras are by Calvin Klein. I usually get them at Macy's or wherever they are on sale.

Macy's/Mervyns: for Bali and Vanity Fair

Oh, well they always size me and say I am a 30B but I think you are right, they don't make 30s, but their 32B and 34A fit me well. My favorite everyday style is the Angels unlined lace demi--I have four or five of them. I also liked how the Very Sexy bras fit, but I don't like to wear padding. The Body bras come in 32B, but I only like the convertible style, which I use as a strapless.

To be honest, I haven't even tried other brands in years because I was so frustrated with them. I hate bra shopping, so once i find one that I like, I rarely buy any other kind. What is the one you like from Kohl's? I have a gift card to Kohl's, maybe I should go and see how I like their bras.

I get mine from Maidenform outlet stores. They often have a 3 for $15 sale on bras. I just got 3 a couple of weeks ago for $15, but I'm not sure if the sale is still going on. Some of my favorite and most comfortable bras have come from Maidenform.

Lily of France is FREAKING AWESOME. My absolute favorite brand EVER. I'm not sure if they make size 30, but they def. make a 32 B! They have unpadded and slightly padded ones - just enough to control the nippage

. Go check them out!

Cool, thanks!

Almost exclusively Nordstrom and Nordstrom rack. My favorite brand is Felina.

VS bras don't fit me right, and half of them don't even come in my size.

i love gap bras too! bras and underwear are pretty much the only things i buy at the gap nowadays. my absolute favorite bra is the low-cut t-shirt bra. no fun colors or patterns or anything, but they are so comfortable and give me good cleavage without pushing my boobs up under my chin.

gingembre1 · Kate Spade

JC Penneys, all the way. Specifically, the Delicates brand. Best bras I've ever found, and they do some wonderful things for my cleavage.

I am also 30/32 B. I love VS. I love their pink line. That is where I get all my bras from. It is very little padding which i love. LMonet you should check it out. Plus they are like only $24 or $28

I usually buy mine at Nordstrom and Norstrom Rack. I've found a few nice ones at Gap Body too. Unforuntely, I'm an odd size (34DD) so typically, there is limited selection. I can never find anything at VS.
