I know I've gained a little weight lately, but this is getting ridiculous! I can't find a bra to fit me correctly no matter what I try! Either the straps dig in or the band is too tight. If I get the band to fit, the cup isn't quite right. I think I'm a pretty smart woman. I spend my days informing people as a journalist. I've helped consumers figure out how to eat healthier foods and drive safer cars. Are you telling me I can't figure out how to find the right balance between support and comfort in my underwear?? It's a little embarrassing! I was about to give up until I talked to
Jene Luciani, author of The Bra Book. At first, I admit, I wasn't sure how much could be said about an undergarment. Once I got the book, I couldn't put it down! Ladies, listen up! It's filled with really useful information on everything from how to pick the perfect 'style' of bra for every occasion (there's seven pages devoted to styles in the book!) to how to FINALLY determine the perfect fit for you. Jene also gives you helpful hints like...you need to be refitted every few MONTHS. Bra fitting is far from a one-time adventure. Sizes even vary considerably from brand to brand. This is a must read!!! Head over to GALTime.com. Two lucky winners will nab a copy of The Bra Book. If you aren't one of the fortunate ones, it is for sale here.
What is your most embarrassing bra moment? Black bra get wet under a white shirt? (I just heard that true story from an elementary school teacher this weekend!) Peeking through on a cold day? Let us know...We want to hear from you!!!
