Help with getting less cheap bras?




Emily Cone


my mom bought me bras at tjmaxx (im 32a btw)
for $4 a pack of 2. i am flat, but not flat enough to have bras that cheap. they are horrible and wicked uncomfortable. i have a gift card to aerie that i would use to buy my own bra and 10$ off an PINK bra. for some reason she thinks all the bras at those stores make me look like i have big boobs, which not all of them do. she doeznt care if they are uncomfortable and i even had to purposely rip them but she doesnt budge. help!



Answer
I'm not entirely sure why your mother is worried about you wearing something that makes you *look* like you have bigger breasts?

An ill fitting bra is a plague. There is nothing good about it regardless of how cheap it may be. There's nothing wrong with the bras from TJMaxx, they're still name brand and whatnot, but if they don't fit, they don't fit.

Before I needed underwire, I found that the VS "soft cup" bras were really good. I'm old enough to have a daughter and I can tell you, if she made a valid argument about *why* something was uncomfortable and offered up gift certs/promotional discounts to buy from VS or aerie, I would be ok with it. I'm a little young to have a daughter who *needed* a bra, but I'm just telling you how to appeal to her.

Where can I find cheap comfortable bras?

Ok I don't need any lingerie type or lots of lace. Just comfy, daily wear bras in simple colors like black, grey, white, or striped or stuff like that. Solid colors are fine too. Aerie and Victoria's Secret have lots of cute bras but they're 20 dollars, I just don't think bras are worth that much.....
So where can I find cheap comfortable bras? Thanks!



Answer
It's really hard to find comfortable bras under $20 unless you get lucky and it's on clearance in your size. The Gilligan & O'Malley lace gel bras (currently on sale for $18 at Target) are my favorites, and I highly recommend them. They're especially good if you have a small cup size, but the larger ones are also very comfortable, just with less padding. The material on the inside of the cups feels great!

I've had 2 of them for about 4 months, and they show no signs of wear at all.
