how many bra's?

Options
OK ladies how many bra's do you have? As a big lady I've always just had two bra's but have just discovered pretty bra's for bigger ladies :) My temptation is to buy loads to make up for years of feeling un attractive, but it's not money saving. So how many do you think ladies really need?

    Depends what you want them for, is it to show off to someone special? If it's just for every day wear then I try to think more practically - different colours, shapes and styles to accommodate different outfits. I would say I have about 8-10.

    Between two evils, I always pick the one I never tried before

    I think I have around 15

    There are loads of places which cater for bigger sizes - Bravissimo and Simply Be are just two which spring to mind straight away.

    I don't even want to count how many I have. I fear I probably have around the same amount as alison99.

    But.....these are for different outfits/occasions and then some fun/pretty ones too.

    Kendalls, I wouldn't feel bad about the ones you own/bought, or how much you spent, so long as you can afford it. A good bra is essential and the good ones don't come cheap.

    Blumming eck, £62 on 2 bra's.

    Last ones i bought were in Primark, which have lasted for ages were £6 in a
    twin pack, 34C. 1 white, 1 black, moulded, wash and wear brilliantly.

    I have about 10 change it every other day.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.
  • it's amazing how much nicer I feel for a nice bra.. shame I've wasted 20 odd years wearing horrible ones :(
