How often do you buy bras?
The last time I bought bras (until this weekend) was before DH and I started dating - over five years ago. I take really good care of them (wash them separately on the gentle cycle - don't put them in the washer) and even though they didn't need to be replaced....I wanted new ones anyway.
Also, I have pride, so I buy my bras one size bigger than I actually need...but this time I got the right size which really makes a huge difference...who would have guessed?
Anyhoo, I am super excited.
Re: How often do you buy bras?
I'm like pp; 2-3 times and year and when VS has them on sale.
A good fitting a bra is the best thing ever!
I always wonder if my bras are actually 'good fitting'...
I'd say I buy one or two a year when they're on super sale.
I buy bras about 2 to 3 times a year, and I usually buy 2 or 3. I just bought a [ridiculously expensive] strapless bra over the weekend, but for the most part, I buy all my bras together.
The old ones, I tend to just throw out. I think I've got about six solid bras that I wear all the time, which is good enough for me. I feel like I need more bras, but I just don't like bra shopping. The next time JCPenney, Macy's or Victoria's Secret has a sale, I'll probably buy a couple more and call it even for the next few months.
I'm just now down to a size that I can actually say they're staying for a while. Between pregnancy, BF'ing, etc. I have had some major fluctuation. I am probably going to go to Dillard's to get fitted since the girl at VS told me that I'm a 32D. That's NOT possible.
I'll probably buy two bras that look good under t-shirts and that I can switch to a racer back. I need a strapless bra too...so I might be buying 3. I probably won't buy more until these start to look like crap. So maybe every couple of years?
