Dairy of a yoyo!!

Love the dress! beautiful neckline! def sexy enough without looking like trying to hard, perfect balance!

Well done on your loss! YAY :)

I think I may have found the top you text me about?

I cant believe you got fitted in Evans, lol I hope you learnt your lesson! Naughty Tara! x

maybe? If its not, the other black one I bought isnt for sale anymore :(
 
Excellent dress it is! Don't new need to buy a new top! It was that one! Lush!!!!

Took bras back to Evans... Got a full refund and an apology from the manager. She remeasured me.... Not a 42hh/i as the woman said last time apparently a 42F!!!! How can you get it so wrong!!!!!!!!!! :-/ immense!!
 
So good they took them back, really nice of them.

I have one evans bra which I like to wear when I want cleavage but I know it doesnt fit me properly - its a bit naughty. I can never find my size in there anyway - but I have been going down back sizes with my weightloss but I havent lost any volume :/

So I started at 42 GG, then 40 G and now 38 FF - so just going down the sister sizing - bit odd as I thought I would lose some breast fat. Maybe later on? Hows your losses effecting your sizes?

Back size is different- gone done but I was wearing the wrong size yesterday! Sadly a conscious choice!!! But cup size not so much (just sag!!) or so i thought!!! The manager measuring today made the woman last Friday out round my bust by 4 and a bit inches..... I simply can't have lost that since Friday! 2 maybe I was hormonal! But it's a long way between H and I!!!!!!!!! Can't get my head round it and neither could she! 42F. Like I said to her.... Haven been an F cup size since I was 16! Lol! And it opens up my bra choice.... Though we all know measuring is not the way to go!!

Where do u buy ur bras? X
 
The lady who measured you the first time sounds like she used a very old fashioned method of measuring which is now discouraged. They used to measure and then add 4 inches to balance against stiff fabrics with little stretch. But now we use fabrics with elastine in and are far more stretchy so there is no need to add the extra 4 any more. Whatever your under bust measures is exactly the size you should be wearing. If you are in between sizes ie 35 inches under bust then you wear a 36. With cup sizes its much more subjective and a case of trial and error. I can refer you to a website which will tell you the things to look out for to work out if you are in the right fit.

I mostly buy my bras from Debenhams or off the net. Wear debs own brand gorgeous and I really like Freya and bravissimo bras but I have to get them off the net.

The only werid thing for me is that although I haven't lost much volume my breasts seem to have changed shape :(
 
Congrates on your loss this week hun awesome news :)

As for bras I had to get a new one Ive gone down a cup size :cry: was a C and am now a B not impressed i must say I suppose once all the spare tyres go from around my middle i'll be in porportion just hope i dont lose anymore of my boobs though jeez i'll be looking at implants lmao xx

I'm the same on the shape change vs volume difference. Definitely!!!

Yes please on the website!!!!!

I use bravisimo but they don't do a 42 back- I always order my panache bras from them hence buying a 40back. I was going to say.... The ONLY time I've ever been measured like that was when I was 13. And that is 15years ago.... You would have thought we'd have come on a bit since then! What I need to do is try on in p&q without a shop assistant telling me what I want!!!!! Ie no wires granny bra! Er no!!!!!!! Lol!!!
 
You're making me feel like I have NO boobs lol!! I was 38C and now I'm a 36B haha :( x

Haha no people still really believe that and push it on others. A good fitting bra and educating others on the matter is a massive passion of mine! lol Under garments make the world of difference to an outfit and should not be neglected!

All my sports bras are panache but Ive never tried their normal ones - Im going to have to go snoop at some now! lol

I would massively recommend a freya deco - beautiful, seam free, comfortable, subtle lift, forward projection, good shape and can be worn under Ts. Band sizes come up big so if your in between 2 go for the smaller. Freya Black fuller bust 'Deco' moulded plunge bra- at Debenhams.com It looks so simple but this is truly the best bra I have ever owned!


This is the website Are You Wearing The Wrong Bra? By Susannah Perez | fullerfigurefullerbust

I would go to the home page - skip to the first page and work your way through every post - It is such a brilliant education! (but if not - just read that post about fitting bras!)

Just wanted to let you know about sister sizing - Butterfly Collection's Blog - Life in Big Boobs: Bra School: Not all D cups are the same size

You have lost back fat - no breast tissue volume - your boobs are the same size :)
 
I have always had big boobs, and bravissimo was the best place EVER for measuring and sizing.... I went to the Brighton shop (any excuse) and the Oxford shop. Even their phone advice is spot on.

I've worn panache Eliza balconette for years, I generally stay away from moulder or padded- dunno why but I feel like I have enough in the boob department without needing to add to it.... Maybe I have that wrong.....


Boobs are so weird. I'm sure it's a man conspiracy.....why is it so hard to standardise bras?!? Xxx
 
Haven't seen Pink yet hun its on the 28th less then 3 wks to go now cant wait :) xx

I wish there was a bravissimo near me - I would so go, but the nearest one is miles away :(

See I wont wear anything non moulded - I feel like they are more contained and evens out the a symmetry that I have. I recently was persuaded to buy two bras that weren't padded or moulded and I regret it, for me its a waste of money as they just dont get worn. Should have stuck to my guns and wore what I like. I also feel like I dont get enough nipple protection from them! lol weird I know. Ive always hated bras you can see your nipple through too haha - something from when I was a kid!

well anyway! Im an FF/G and Im sure I dont need extra help but I dont actually feel like they make my boobs bigger. Just smoother and more even :)
 
If I drop another dress size and go to Brighton bravissimo, I'll pick u up on the way through!


They don't have my size in that moulded one from ur earlier post 38gg is all the go up too otherwise I'd b tempted to at least go try them on!!! Xx
 
That Freya one is lush! I'm gonna see if they go anywhere near my size on another site! Xx
 
I've never noticed if I have nipple issues.......:-/
 
lmfao oooo i have nipple issues to... if i didnt have moulded or tshirt type bras then everyone around me would be getting there eyes poked out :D xx
