Clothing shopping

[mistressofmuses]

Finally bought a bra that won't stab me in the tit. Turns out, trying to find one that fits is just as hard as it was the last time, ugh. I settled yet again for "close enough I guess", but, well... close enough.

I loathe most types of shopping, but clothing especially. Maybe if money were less of a concern, or if it was easier to find things that fit, I'd feel differently, but as it is, it's always way more frustrating than anything else.

But today I got a new bra, and Alex got new shoes (since his had a crack in the sole that you could see daylight through), and both of us will probably be much happier.

I also bought a couple pairs of pants off the clearance rack, since I'd been down to one pair that fit. The new ones don't fit *great*, and probably won't be super comfortable until I lose a few pounds, but... I can wear them, and they were marked down enough that they were basically thrift store prices.

I used to get underwire bras a lot because I have small boobs, and the underwire with 'boosts' were the only way I could appear to have boobs so that women would stop telling me I couldn't go into the women's bathroom because I wasn't 'woman enough' (because small boobs). I found some at Walmart that actually lasted for a while before they started to stab me in the tit. I also found some at Walmart that are almost sports bra-ish but they're not because they enhance instead of press down, and the act like underwire without the tit-stabbing torture devices. So yay for new bras.

I've mostly stuck with underwire, because the other stuff I've tried hasn't really offered enough support, or completely flattens me out. And unfortunately a lot of other styles weren't available even in my "close enough, I hope" size. Though the kind you mention - an underwire without an underwire - sounds great!

It's bullshit that other people ever treated you like that. :(

Here you go. I was trying to find what it looked like so that you could go to Walmart and find them. They're super comfortable, no underwire but definitely support and lift. I have a white, a black, and a pinkish-purple shade, but I want to get more. I recently donated all my underwire ones that hadn't crapped out on me yet but were bound to at some point. Oh and on the ones like this, the straps don't keep falling off my shoulders. Ever. https://www.walmart.com/ip/No-Boundaries-Women-s-Comfy-Wirefree-Seamless-Bra/347786864

Thank you! I'll have to look into them. That sounds a lot more comfortable!

Way more comfortable. I JUST NOW took off my bra to put on the cami I've been sleeping in. Usually, once supper's over and we're done with normal evening things, the bra is the first thing to go. I was comfortable enough to stay in it a bit longer.

That is HIGH praise, haha. My bra comes off right after my shoes as soon as I'm in the apartment door, lol.
