I usually buy something like 18 hour bras as I need lots of support for my 38 c And usually I just get white so they dont show through my clothes as much. Now if I was going out I like wearing strapless bras so I can be a little sexy And mine is black with lace. Your views please?

I wear padded bra's as I am an A cup and I hate it so I like to make them a little bit bigger and a little bit more together. I have pretty bras some are lacy, some are patterns and some are plain. I am a 30A, but sometimes have to buy 32's as many stores don't do size 30.

What about Victory Secret? Sometimes if you ask the right person that does the ordering they might help get your size.

Being a smaller size has its advantages. As you can get differnt types and styles of bras. Most of the bigger sizes dont have much to choose from. Not to mention the added weight pulling your shoulders. At my age they sag alot-LOL I was the first to develope in my class when I was a teen and I was constantly picked on. Hugs.

Yeah, but the disadvantage is that you only buy padded bras as without them you are virtually flat chested and sometimes they don't have your size around the middle. I want to be a B preferably. I don't want huge boobs as you said they sag more and pull on your shoulders and back.

I will wear a bra close to color of my skin so it does not show through my clothes as well. Although, I do wear ones with more support on the rare occasions that I exercise. I too will wear a sexy bra when going out. It's just more fun! Although one of my pet peeves is a black bra showing through a white shirt.

I've found that white bras actually show every bit as much through clothing as black bras do, especially through white clothing. The best ones to go for are those closest to your natural skin tone (not the tanned bits). That's why my staple bras are tan or black. Don't get me wrong, I love the cute matching bra sets, and the little lacy numbers that do nothing for support. There's nothing in my drawers that indicates I'm older than 21. Or that I have kids, lol. Shoot, that's how they got here :p. Blessed Be

That maybe why I where white as I am fair skinned and where darker clothes. I guess if I where darker clothes it really wouldnt matter what color I wore. Something to ponder.

it would really depend on the colour of the outfit if it is transparent. Usually my favourite is black, however if it is a transarent top theni would go with that colour.

I love Victoria Secret bras and I love all colors and kinds from them. I have some that are lace, that are different colors, and some that are really plain but are satin. All the bras are pretty comfortable and all look really sexy to me. I'm the same way, I need lots of support because I'm a 36 D. I would love to be a smaller size, but my hubby loves them. It's really hard to find outfits also, because I'm a pretty small size to have such big boobs.

i could never get used to underwire. they always seem to dig into my skin and after awhile the wire would come out. i went to victoria secert and found a wonderful push bra without the wire it is super.

I like to wear white and light pastel color bras, so they're not exposed when I wear light shirts and tops. But I also like black bras, just because they look sexy. xD

Its always a nice feeling to feel sexy. I just got to thinking the lightest shirt I have would be pink most of the others are dark colors. I never thought about it before now. Although I have light skin so darker colors seem to go better with the skin tone.

I wear usually underwires and whatever color works with my top or whatever is clean. I do also wear jog bras especially at work because I have sloping shoulders and am forever picking at my fallen straps. Plunge style bras are nice for dates w/ hubby but inpractical for most any other occasion that requires bending *LOL* Never fun tucking them back in.

I purchase beige bras or rose toned bras as they do not show as much. I purchase something with some support but not with any underwires.

It is hard to find a good support bra. My daughter is always saying my bust isnt in the right spot-lol But you also need comfort. Thank you for the idea of color choice I may need to change colors.

i love wearing skintone colored t-shirt bras, with convertible straps. they're fantastic, they don't show through white shirts and i can wear the straps in different ways depending on the style of my shirt.. i also have them in other colors like pink, green, blue, brown and black. i have a lacy bra too, that can double as a tube undershirt for those plunging tops..

Skintoned I had not thought of that color as I usaully wear white. But you have a good point. One of these days I'll expand my wardrobe.
