I am sooooo desperate for some new bras. My boobs are so sore at the moment, I figure the time has come to get properly fitted, and ditch the moulded cup (ugh hate them) and underwire. I was thinking of going to Myer, but I'm not sure if their range is big enough? I'll be checking the one out in the city, but the one at Highpoint was very disappointing. I want something cute, comfy, supportive, nice shape (no cone boobs please!) and soft cup...I don't ask a lot, do I? :p So where did you go?
I went to a lingerie shop...I guess you could call it specialty, it's called 'She'. I tried Myer, but like you, was disappointed with the range. This store sells hot milk, babylove, etc has quite a good maternity range actually. The lady really knew what she was doing, she told me how big to expect to get and worked out what would carry me through pregnancy as well as feeding- she's been accurate! I tried BNT but the girls didn't have any idea how my breasts would change throughout the 9months and feeding.
I went to Myer and DJ's. Nice bras too :) about $55-60.
To get fitted for any bra, I just go to bras n things... I don't necessarily buy from there...
I went to bras n things. Massive range and the girl was really really lovely and helpful. Had trouble with my size, and she just kept going until I was happy.
Yeah, Bra's and things.. I got great maternity bras from there.. I was huge..
I went to Angelica Lingerie, 30 Anderson St, Yarraville. They stock the Hot Milk range which can be a bit expensive but is sooooo lovely. It was also on special when I was there a few weeks ago. The staff member there was lovely and my bras fit very well.
I must say, it's amazing the difference a well fitted bra makes. I have no idea why I was even wearing my old ones as they were so uncomfortable.
Speciality fitting in Williamstown (went there today)
OR
Angelica Lingeria in yarraville
Both very helpful and had bigger boobs bras!!
Awesome! I go to Highpoint once a week so will check out bnt...for some reason inwas sceptical about them? No idea why, maybe because I have big boobs and all the bras I see there are cute but only good for up to DD (I've grown so much these last few years I'd be an E or F I reckon). Will also definitely check out Angelica, nice and close!
PZ we should do a lunch or coffee in yarraville what are you doing this mon?? (kids in day care and no uni placements)
DF's first day of uni on Monday, so...looks like I'm going looking for bras with you :p
Awesome sounds great!! I cant be out for too long as I must do uni stuff BUT I do need to eat and have a brain break LOL
Cool well maybe just coffee then and no bras lol.
LOL they dont have that big a range that we can't fit it in!! I can always drive you to Willy shop if you cant find one in Yarraville!
google Intimo and have a consultant come to your home
oh yes forgot about intemo I did just that had someone come to me and measure me in end was $ as I got 2 bras and 1 pair of pants, 1 chamisole and 1 wrap top LOL (but did get a huge discount as spent over min spend for a party):
There bras though in the end did not fit me that great and I was in there biggest cup size.
If you would like to meet up for a coffee sometime let me know as you obvuoulsy live not far from me and will have kids with a similar gap to mine. (but my DS1 is older than yours):
I went to a speciality shop with DS, and got a Hot Milk, then drove the 2 hours home and found i was not happy at all with it :( I returned it for a refund and went to Bras and Things. This time round, I went straight to Bras and Things to get fitted. They only had 1 bra in the shop that fitted me (small range where i went) BUT I went home, got on their website and found the same bra, just in a different colour, on sale, for about $24 or $26 plus post (paid $60 in the shop) so i ordered myself a second bra. Bargain!!
Do you have an ABA Mothers direct store in your area I am sure there is one in Melbourne?? They are great! Myer and DJs are good too! Good luck hun x
the Bendon shop at DFO have sales where all their bras are just $20. Their maternity range is somedays better than others, but that's where i have got most of mine.
I also went to she lingerie and was fitted, bought a couple of bras from there and then trawled Internet maternity store for hotmilk on line. I love their bras, sexy comfortable and supportive!
