Hi, all, glad to find you.
Shopping for a new bra or two today. I'm very broke but very in need of something that fits well. My best-fitting bra is Curvy Kate "Angel" Balconette in 32H. Would love a t-shirt bra! Any recommendations?
Thanks for this forum.

Color and style of bra you're currently wearing: actually wearing a Danskin tank with built-in shelf bra (not recommended, tho I've tried to stretch it in the boob area without stretching the under-boob elastic) to lounge around on my day off.
Best thing about having large breasts: pretty
Worst thing about having large breasts: can't find bras to fit
Favorite bra brand: Curvy Kate
Favorite store for bras/swimsuits/etc: brastop.com, so far, though I'm fairly new to proper sizing so haven't tried many others
Most amount of money spent on a bra: ... I dunno, maybe $70
Was it worth it?: Not if I can get a good bra, good fit, comfortable, durable, for less.
Least amount of money spent on a bra: ... dunno
Was it worth it?:
Have you had a breast reduction?: no
If "Yes," was it worth it and why?:
If "No," do you intend to and why?: no, I like having big boobs. I don't look at myself and see them as being that big, anyway, I think they're just right. If only the lingerie industry agreed.
Most frequent question or statement about your breasts: My sisters agree that they don't look like what we'd think an "H" cup would look like. I plan to stash a tape measure and re-size my big sis next time we're together.
Funny or embarrassing story involving your breasts:
One thing you would change about bras if you were in charge: FIT, size availability
One thing you would change about the bra industry if you were in charge: well, duh ... FIT, size availability ;)
Any tips you have to make bras, clothes, and/or swimsuits fit better: I like the tip for those of us whose boobs don't stand up all by themselves, about leaning forward from the waist to measure around the bust with them hanging straight down.
