Why, oh why did I ever buy this bra? I typically wear a 30DDD, and yet for some reason purchased this ill-fitting 30C on a whim. Perhaps I was simply excited to see a band smaller than 32 in a store? Whatever the reason, this bra has never fit correctly, and I have no one to blame but myself.
This bra is an extreme push-up bra, with thick padding at the base of each cup. It also sits pretty low on the rib cage, furthering the va-va-voom push up effect. For the right person (i.e. a person who actually wears this bra size!), I think it could be very ... flattering. For me, it was a constant struggle to stay contained in the bra. My nipples like to escape out the top. Because nothing says party like a bra that won't contain your nipples!
Perhaps the saddest part of this bra saga is that I actually wore the darn thing, quite a few times. To the point where I think the band is pretty stretched out. To the point where the straps are now dissolving into ribbons and mesh? Although I think that's more of a laundry problem than anything else. But I'm turning over a new leaf! I'm going to invest in bras that actually fit me, using this website as a guide! So this bra is going away. Far, far, away. I will no longer settle for ill-fitting bras that refuse to contain my curves!

Oh man, I know the feeling. 😅 I'm always still tempted when I see 32D bras in store, but most look just as unfortunate.
But then you'll find a store that carrys 30DDD and you'll want to buy them all even though one is a hideous print and another is super uncomfortable and another is your least favorite color. Because you aren't used to seeing your size. This is me in Dillard's when they have their big sale..
