Bra woes

Thongs! No way! It would only enhance my -fat-wobbly bits! Don't want to disturb poor old DH! Even more disturbing when I am in the changing room at swimming pool All those slim young girls would be appalled! Give me M&S cotton knickers every time. I'm past caring.

Jess Not showing my gluteus maximus to anyone these days, just like to be comfy

Well maybe pinup. Porn star was a bit strong, sorry.
But they are designed to show off those gluteal areas in a way that has long been portrayed in that sphere. Not designed with female comfort in mind.
I know some people say they are comfortable but if one has, well, a womanly bottom shall we say, how on earth can they be?

Jess Porn star? Not last time I looked in the full length mirror!

Ariadne Is it an age thing do you think? I'm exactly the same, got remeasured, no difference.
I'm ok until I sit down, and then it's like wearing a strait jacket.

Actually, come to think of it, my dil does the same thing, so it can't be age! [phew]

rockgran Night?!! Afternoon is bra o'clock for me

One of life's little pleasures is taking the bra off at night.

Back to bras - wore a new one yesterday. I have to have something very supportive as I am well endowed, even with bits missing; can't wear wired ones because of the BC surgery, so this was the old faithful one from M&S. It was snug, to say the least.

After a while, I began to feel quite unwell - bit faint and uncomfortable. Then I realised that this had happened before - the bra was just too tight. Took it off and was fine. Shades of Victorian ladies!

And yes, I have been measured recently. Same old size.

I think I will be erring on the side of NO , Anna.
BYKT !

I think there is more involved in being a porn star these days, bleaching comes into it..........................

(And possibly Nonu, but she hasn't made her mind up yet...)

Jess! Are you saying that phoenix and Lona want to look like porn stars?

Thongs! Never I like my bum to be well covered grin

the point is to look like a porn star.

I don't understand thongs...what's the point? I also wear genie bras but don't you think they lack definition? Make you look a little odd shaped?

What ever size I bet it would still irritate the piles!

I bought a 'genie' bra from Boots to wear at the gym [and a similar black one from Asda] and find myself wearing them all the time. They're really warm as well [in fact I feel the cold when I don't wear them]. You can insert your own padding inside as well [I'm thinking of the 'chicken fillets' that my daughter used to have]. They cost about £10 [and I've spent a fortune on Marie Jo and Lejaby bras over the years.

Hmm...I'm not convinced a droopy stretchy, large thong really appeals to me - but each to her own!

Oh you two! Matelan, Sainsbury, Tesco or John Lewis if they're really nice.

No they aren't 'droopy' because they stretch!

Oh I see, you were talking to Lona - sorry!

Just want to know where LONA gets her thongs from , no harm in that!!!!!!

I think you know very well what I mean, Nonu!

Be more specific
Purleese

But if they're that big and stretchy, Lona, don't they look a bit....er....droopy?

Not M&S! Anywhere as long as they are big and stretchy enough. I won't buy sets (bra/bottoms) as not many have thongs anymore.
