La Senza Sale

Bras are buy one get one
Panties 5/$25

Last year I made a pretty huge purchase on bras at this sale considering finding the right fit and size has always been either a hit or miss for me. So I took advantage and totally bought whatever I could find that fit. Trust me - even when the size number and letters match your measurements, the bra still may not fit. I've had such a bad experience bra shopping. I am bitter. Jacob's bras disappointed me but maybe I should try again since they're sizing is different (now that I've got that figured out but still too lazy to figure out new sizing). If you need new bras go buy them now! Last year I got the deal in store but right now I can see that online it's free shipping for orders over $89.

IMO microfiber is the most comfortable material but the straps get loose faster after washes - even with a laundry bag. No I don't hand wash..

Lace ones are more rough but they have better support and the straps don't really get loose.

Demi cups have the best support.

There's a specific La Senza bra that has great support but because of the way it's made, it eventually becomes uncomfortable wearing it during the day. I can't find it on the website but it is a demi cup and joined together in the middle is hard fabric and depending on which season, they have the LS logo on it. This section of hard fabric that connects the cups basically makes an imprint in the middle of your chest and not only that, you literally feel sore after a while.

i like buying new bras but they're quite expensive and i only like certain materials. demi cup is the best but hard to find and hard to find bras that aren't padded/push-up these days that have good shape

I find that my favs are Victoria's Secret but not only are they already so expensive, but shipping costs a lot too =(
I'm hoping that on my next trip to TX, Jeff's best friend's wife can shop with me, as I'm not comfortable bra/undies shopping with him =T
