Incoming purchases and soon-to-be-sales

I'm so excited right now.

So I've still got a bunch of bras on the way, but I very nearly officially have my first ever Bra That Fits (tm), 75F - Ewa Michalak » Bm Szmaragd (794) -- the band on this is wildly comfortable even on the tightest hooks, and even though the cups are too small it's kind of workable due to the soft unlinedness and general shape of them. Between this and the 75HH - Comexim » Noir Plunge Bra (410), a bra that finally fully matches the shape of my boobs (micro quadding! only the tiiiiniest bit!), I feel like I have finally found bras that suit my body and will soon have my first STAR bra.

I've also realized that incoming Bras That Fit mean I should probably give my current collection another purge... and buying from users here has made me feel maybe-confident enough to sell, so I'm going to make some listings. I have two NWT bras, one a 28H - Panache » Andorra Full Cup Bra (5675) (I know 28 bands are in demand...), and the rest are very very gently used, having been worn no more than 10 times.

I'm a Terrible Bra Owner who usually washes her bras in the washing machine (with a delicates bag, delicate detergent, and then hung to dry), but I've purchased some Soak wash to change my ways and will be using the unscented Soak wash on all the non-NWT ones before I send them out. :) Assuming I get buyers, of course!

(I have a few more bras, but I'm not so sure about selling those because I've worn them more... a pair of what's basically 30GG Panache Sports (the gray/white is 32, but runs quite small), I guess I could always list them for small amounts like $15?)

I'm psyched again about Katherine Hamilton Intimates and the two bras that will be coming to me over the next couple of weeks, a 30G - Katherine Hamilton Intimates » Sophia Bra (SBBLK) (30GG this time) and a Louise in 32G; narrow, bespoke wires, high-quality materials, made in the UK~. I'm psyched about the Comexims and Ewa Michalaks en route. (And I was right, Jaimie was extremely helpful after the problems I had with the Chalet.)

I'm just generally psyched. :3

  • Ooh I'm interested to see how the KH Intimates will work out! I'd love to try Louise. Good luck with all of the bras! :)

  • Nml817 Alas, the cups on the Sophia were too small! (I got them mixed up in my post here too, the Sophia came in 32G.)

    Considering that nothing I got over the last two days was a keeper, it's amazing how optimistic I am. I guess because it's mostly fit problems I feel like I recognize and can fix.

    Katy with KHI was interested to know how their fit compares with other bras, so I gave her a run-down on what I have that fits or almost fits. She says they might need to re-label their cups! :o They definitely run a bit small, as I'm "usually" a 32FF/30G in UK sizes and their 32G is quite a bit too small. I've re-ordered a 30H and 30HH and will let BTB know the results :)
