I spent all of my teens thinking I had horrible, saggy boobs and a tiny ribcage. My first ... bra was a 32C in middle school and I quickly settled into 34Ds and then 32DDS from Victoria's Secret. When I gained another cupsize and their full-coverage 32DDDs wanted to put my breasts in my armpits, I knew it was time for an alternative.

I have very tall roots, almost up to my collarbone, but low-set breasts - they aren't particularly pendulous, but sit close to my elbows and always have!
