Clearing out your bra drawer
Today I went through all my bras and trying each one on. I recently changed a bit in size, underbust got up 3cm and I am bordering on a 32KK / 34K now. I am glad that my underbust got bigger actually, because that means that I also can wear some 34 bands again and therefore have more options! For example my Elomi Caitlyn bras do fit now better again, they feel more supportive since the bands are not too big any more.
I tried on all my Curvy Kate Bikinis and I have to say: those are the best Bikinis out there in my size range. I have 32J - Curvy Kate » Bondi Breeze (CS2001) , 32JJ - Curvy Kate » Caribbean Curves Balcony Bikini Top (CS4001 and 34J - Curvy Kate » Rio Ruffle Bikini Top (CS3001) 32J fits the best! (They are from CKs first Bikini collection in 2012? and run all oddly big in cups, which is awesome for those at the end of the size range! Also they are very supportive, it's almost like wearing a bra!
I also decided to keep my 36H - Freya » Eden Balconette Bikini - Gg+ (3198) despite the top being too small. It covers my boobs but gives not much support because the band is too big, but I just can't let it go. It is so cute and I love the matching briefs since they fit so well. (I don't like CK Bikini briefs, they are very odd in sizing and too low cut for my taste, at least those 2 I tried)
I also discovered that I can still wear my old Tangos but need an Extender.
Some bras sadly don't fit me any more... I will sell some and have most of them already listed here: http://www.bratabase.com/profile/3a1/listings/
I will also keep some of my favourite bras that are too small because my size fluctuates all the time.
Did you have a clear-out lately too?

I did too, and they're in a box to send to @sophisticated pair for their event.
What event? Is it like a donation event?
