womanly...support.

Monday I got my haircut...just a trim mostly at the Dillard's salon. I had a good coupon so it only cost 13 bucks! And, then I ventured to the semi-annual BRA sale they were having. I love this sale! It's crazy how much you fluctuate with being a momma, nursing and all the ups and downs. I love the sale (I got two bras for 14.99 each) but, what I mostly love are the two little, older ladies, Mitzi and Anita who come in the dressing room with you and tug at the bra and tell what fits well and what doesn't, what looks fantastic and helps you in and out of bras and then have you leaving their department feeling ever so....lifted!

Anyway, dear friends, I just wanted to tell you that Dillard's is having their semi-annual bra sale (at least here). Anita said the bras on clearance will be there till they're gone. Here were a couple things I learned in my wonderful bra fitting specialists:

-When you buy a new bra you want to hook it on the loosest hook and then as the bra loosens through wear, you should gradually start hooking it on the next tighter hook.

-when you try on a bra, slip your top on over to give you a better idea of it's fit and look.

-the tendons in your breast area can actually deteriorate from a poor supporting bra, so in order to avoid 'more' sagging, you want to make sure your chest is lifted and well-supported.

-wearing the right bra can help a woman stand taller and make some women look as if they've lost 5-10 pounds.

-it's very healthy for your body to have good support!

If you're a neighbor of mine, go visit Anita or Mitzi (they're WONDERFUL!). ;-)

Darn, I don't know how I missed this post! Oh, you are brave to let stranger ladies help you in and out of bra's!! I don't think I am brave enough, however, I am ALL about good support!! So important to keep "the girls" up there! ;)
