HOLDING THE GIRLS DOWN ....

Dearest Tadpoles,
   As a plus size woman, I have always had a hard time finding a bra that was comfortable. When I was younger, my mother took me to the store to get a training bra. My dad made a comment, "What you going to train those things to do?" That was the beginning of a nightmare for me. I heard comments like, "What kind of Over-Shoulder-Boulder Holder do you wear?". At 14 years old, I can wearing a C-cup already.
   I tried under-wire bras because they were so pretty. I wanted to be wearing a beautiful bra so that I could feel sexy. Well, that did not last to long. Those dang wires cut into my skin. So in the trash they went. So what was next. You got it Mom, took me to the "Old Lady bra section."
   I had to wear one of those unflattering old looking fasten in the front  bra. I did not like the way that it looked, I did not feel sexy. But I had to wear something to keep the "girls" in check. I was one of several girls that were big breasted in school. I continued to wear those ugly things until I found a wonder bra for a young girl, The sport bra.
   The sport bra was an answer for me. I could wear them with everything. They keep the girls nice and tight so that boys could not see how big they were. I hated hearing comments like, "Did you see how big her boobs are?" That is was magical about the universal sports bra. But the "UN-A-Boob" as not flattering.
   Well, ladies. I have found the "NEW MAGICAL" bra for plus size big breasted ladies!!!!! Ladies , let me introduce you to the, Cacique- No Wire Satin-Comfort Solution. I purchased 2 in Arkansas and fell in love. So when I come home to South Carolina so off to Lane Bryant I went and purchased 4 more. 


(top to bottom-tan, white,black and pink)
These bras are 48 DDD's. I wear a 52 DDD's so I had to purchase a 5 hook extender for my bras. 

WARNING--------WARNING----------WARNING---------WARNING-----------WARNING
From this point and below, I have included pictures of me wearing my bra.





 Front view

Side View

  You will notice that the front view my breast are nice and perky. Which hasn't happened in years!!! Did you notice the cleavage. Well, my husband did. If your man is a breast/cleavage man, he will  "Love" this
bra. Since there is no underwire in the bra, I did not have to worry about this dang wires poking me in. The padding in the bra is good and it covers the nipples so that they are not visible.
   In the side view, you can see that there is an extra piece on material on the side of the seam. That seam is the beginning of a mesh like material that assists with allowing the bra to breathe. I sweat alot and since wearing these bras, I have noticed a difference. The side mesh also assists with what I call the keeping the "Side Boob" in. 
   I have been so eager about sharing these review with you. I hope that this helps you out. If you have any questions about these bras. Please feel free to contact me.

Change in plans...

Dear Tadpoles,
   I have been have some thoughts about what I want to blog about. I am going to continue to blog about my nail polish and stamping addiction. I am a plus-size woman and I feel that "WE" have certain clothes and other issues that I want to share with everyone. For example, I have issues finding bras that fit me. I have just found a bra that I have fallen" In Love" with from Lane Bryant. I am going to be doing a review on the bra later. 
   Over the years, I have learned several different tricks dealing with sweating. I know what you are thinking, "I know how she feels!" I want to share the tricks that I live by. Recently, I just found a new deodorant that I am using to see if it is as good that is says that it is. 
   I want to begin to share more about myself as a whole. I have always been a plus-size person. I have been through different sizes during my life. I have experienced stages of self-hatred, anger, depression and anxiety. I feel that by me sharing all of this with everyone will help other people along with me. 
   I hope that everyone will continue to be follow me and will learn from me. Don't ever feel that you can't ask or comment about anything that I post. 


Love, Chrisie
