I’m in desperate need of new bras-or brars, as my boss calls them-and I’ve been on the hunt for the kind I like. But no, I am unable to find them. Here’s what I want: NO padding. No ‘light lining’, as it’s called at LaSenza. Just simple and preferably no under wire either. There’s nothing like that anywhere, it seems, although I got this piece of lacy fluff today and will give it a test run tomorrow. It’s pretty, my favourite colour.
Hmm. Moody. Tomorrow I clean my craft zone.
So if you’ve got any bra recommendations for me, that would be swell. I’ve looked in the boxed bra drawers in Zeller’s, on the racks in Walmart, in La Senza…I’m not looking to spend a fortune either, so don’t tell me Agent Provocateur, ok, or anywhere in America because I don’t shop at Target very often.
if you’re ok with a y-back sports bra type style, I find old navy has some simple pull overs. Although… i haven’t been bra shopping in years, so i could be quite behind the times.
gap.

they have lots of styles of non padded, non underwire.
Have you looked at americian apparel?
I’ll look at all three of those after xmas, it’s too mental at the mall right now! Thanks!
Calvin Klein: no wire, no pad, just cotton. Love it.

Have you tried looking for training bras instead?
I have found nice bras with the underwire.which I hate…and I slit the sides and rip that wire OUT!!!! I find them to be good bras that way.
I was going to suggest the Calvin Klein ones too. Back before I had to wear a complete harness for a bra I used to love them.
Ooh, the wireless bralette is really cute.
Calvin Klein used to have some. Otherwise … my cousin used to sew her own because she could not find what she wanted.
I think the recommendation would have to be any place I ever shop for bras, because it’s almost the exact opposite of what I need and therefore is what I always find.
