A lil while ago when Starr announced the LB sale, I went back to the store....only to get my feelings hurt *lol* trying on a 44dd (the largest in stock). I gave up on the precious Balconette.
Today, I stopped again on my way home, just to try my luck. The store had 4 bras I was willing to brave. Two (2) 44Hs and two (2) 42Hs. All I gaged were the cups & they seemed big enough, so I bought all 4.
I got home, showered & tried them on. First the 44. It fit OK, but was in the tightest clasp (which is a no-no for a new bra) & the wire was stabbing me...the reason I only own softcups.
Next the 42....and baybee....if you didn't like me then, you gon' hate me now! . LOL I tried on a few of my sexy tops & well....I'mma keep that to myself. :P
I'm still trying to figure how I measure 48dd/ddd and this 42h is rocking!
Oh well, I'm sold!
Thanks Silk & Starr!
Girl... I bought 4 myself a couple of weeks ago at the buy 2 get 2 free sale. Cleavage is BANGIN' LOL!!! I want that exact one that you have pictured though! Did you find that on the website???

I think LB needs to pay Starr a finder's fee!
That one is on the LB website. Color is described as "white dots".
ReplyDeleteI hate like hell I missed that sale. They are now buy one get one 1/2 off....and I got coupons!
Have you been properly fitted lately? You'd be shocked when you find out you were wearing the wrong size all along. I had thought I was a 44dd for the longest time. Went in to LB one day and the chic that fitted me told me to pull the bra I was wearing up to where I wanted support. And just like that, I'm a 42DDD.
ReplyDelete*shrugs*
I ended up buying a full coverage basic black Cacique bra. I will be checking for the Balconette on the next trip.
The last few times I was measured, I was a 47 dd/ddd. Weird ass hell, right? 2 LB and one Macy's sales person came to the same conclusion, so I figured they were right.
ReplyDeleteI still don't know I went from DDD/E to H. What the sam hell happened to F & G??? *scratching head*

I think that since some stores don't go beyond "D" they just add another D to compensate. Or on the other hand, those bra fitters must practice the new math or somethin'..LOL
ReplyDelete*scratching my dome too*
Interesting. I have never bought bras from LB before. I always get mine from a department store. I will check them out. Thanks Mo!
ReplyDeletethey are bangin'...lol
ReplyDelete*head nod* told ya so *wink* enjoy ur new cleavage!
ReplyDeleteDAMN YOU ALL HAVE SOME TIG OL BIDDIES ! ! !
ReplyDelete:)
Right! *lookin at my tiny lil 48D's*
ReplyDeleteYou say that like it's a bad thing lol
ReplyDeleteAww man! I gotta go try one. I love to show the lady lumps!
ReplyDeleteThe more I see these rave reviews the more I'm inclined to bite the bullet and go for it. Hopefully I can find them in my size as well. I need to get re-measured though cause last I knew I was a 42DDD but these babies seemed to have gotten bigger.
ReplyDeleteAfter my experience, I say if they don't have your size, look for a cup that appears to fit. Still SMH at 42H......
ReplyDeleteMy grandaddy's gene pool is to blame...or thank...all depending on who you ask. *lol*
ReplyDeleteI probably shouldn't find this conversation as interesting as I do LOL
ReplyDeleteThere is still hope for me....
ReplyDeleteWith a deep southern drawl, "Well, you is a man aintcha?" LOL
ReplyDeletewell what happened t the butterfly bra? didja try that?
ReplyDeleteDidn't come in my size. Gigi took a chance & bought one. It was too small. No need for me to bother.
ReplyDeleteFeeling a bit discouraged.... Drove around to TWO Lane Bryant stores (2 hours, and nearly a qtr tank of gas) and no bra in my size... What the crusty crab cake is going on... The third "said" they would have a new shipment in on saturday... uuggghh... I just bought a brand new PINK dressy shirt (inspired by my new wardrobe specialist) and it came in the mail today... So I was all up for having a new form fitting bra to accentuate all my positives... But no can do... So I'll save my new threads for when I can find my new barrel holder...
ReplyDeleteFor the life of me, I can not understand why women wanna get this big or much bigger than they are... It aint no bed of roses, I tell ya...
what size do you need? I got 10 bras at the sale...if we are the same size...I'll send you one...
ReplyDeleteI've been sporting the 44ddd with a sports bra over it... which is irritating when its this hot out... Anyway, Monni was telling me about her new find.. So I was gonna see if I can find it and try it out... I think we're up there in the same size... give or take a lil... But its time to replace mine... and apparently after talking to my new wardrobe specialist, I've been taking care of my bras in all the wrong ways... I usually start them out on the last hook, cuz I like having a firm fit... and for my whites, I always wash them using bleach, cuz I love for my white bras to be extra clean, but apparently that breaks them down...
ReplyDeleteSo, before I go to the specialty store and spend to much damn money, I'd like to try this out to see if it fits and works... Damn... I know I could answer a question with one word.. but its hard... lol
I'm in 44DDD's so today is your lucky day. PM me with your mailing addy. I have to send my Ebay shipments tomorrow...so I'll send it first thing in the morning *wink*
ReplyDeleteThe science of bras defies all description. I have one bra that's a 48DD softcup and it fits pretty well, most of my balconettes are 44 or 46DD/DDD. That 42H fits you because your back doesn't need a 48, but your breasts need the larger cups. *sigh*
ReplyDeleteI'd make a grip if I had the patience to make bras....
