Or maybe where the straps are...I'm not sure. If the underwire stays where it should and I'm actually filling out the cups when standing normally, I think it is okay.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bra-fit-before-i-go-buying-duplicates#post-965799 Thu, 27 Jun 2013 18:49:33 +0000 Mo 965799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's a basic work tee I might wear it with. &nbsp;Seems alright. The golf polo did show a little extra boobage at the top of the cup but I was hyper examining I'm sure.<br />I worry that when I bend and reach forward and&nbsp;such, the cups come away from my body a little. &nbsp;Is that a concern? &nbsp;I do move a lot, washing dishes in the bar sink and reaching on shelves for bottles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bra-fit-before-i-go-buying-duplicates#post-965792 Thu, 27 Jun 2013 18:45:22 +0000 Suz 965792@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks good to my non-expert eye. How does it feel? Can you move around comfortably? And yes, definitely try it with a T to see how it is.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bra-fit-before-i-go-buying-duplicates#post-965789 Thu, 27 Jun 2013 18:42:04 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 965789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yup, what Clara said - put on a tee and make sure you like how it looks over the bra!</p> <p>One mistake I made for YEARS, and found out accidentally was this - watch yourself in the mirror while you take the bra off.&nbsp; &nbsp; If the 'girls' don't move, you're probably not getting much support. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bra-fit-before-i-go-buying-duplicates#post-965788 Thu, 27 Jun 2013 18:41:49 +0000 Mo 965788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Liz, I think my having smallish breasts means there's less to lift lol. &nbsp;As long as it doesn't look weird . . .&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bra-fit-before-i-go-buying-duplicates#post-965785 Thu, 27 Jun 2013 18:40:48 +0000 Mo 965785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>thx, Clara for the detailed analysis&nbsp;:) &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bra-fit-before-i-go-buying-duplicates#post-965783 Thu, 27 Jun 2013 18:40:21 +0000 Liz A. 965783@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are so brave!&nbsp; I'm really no expert, but in my experience, a push up bra gives more lift.&nbsp; I don't know about you, but when I put one on, it's like whoa!&nbsp; Boob overload. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bra-fit-before-i-go-buying-duplicates#post-965782 Thu, 27 Jun 2013 18:39:08 +0000 ClaraT 965782@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay. Doesn't look weird (but do put on a snug t-shirt overtop to make sure the under-clothes appearance is good, too).</p> <p>1. the cups are flush to your chest (no gapping) (= right size I think)<br />2. the bra is fastened in the 'longest' position, so if the band stretches out (which has happened to me), you can use the next-smallest position hooks to make it tighter.&nbsp;<br />3. the cups don't give you pointy-boobs or flat-boobs&nbsp;(for lack of better terms) that I can see. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bra-fit-before-i-go-buying-duplicates#post-965776 Thu, 27 Jun 2013 18:31:54 +0000 Mo 965776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is totally embarrassing, but there is no other way around it I guess. &nbsp;Does this look like proper fit to all you bra whisperers out there? &nbsp;I have been searching so long I don't know what's even right anymore I don't think. &nbsp;Add to that, I don't own any push ups and am not sure how they're supposed to fit/look. &nbsp;The underwires feel like they're in the right spot but the padding feels weird. &nbsp;Tell me it doesn't look weird. &nbsp;Or DO tell me if it does! &nbsp;<br />I was tempted to try a cup size down but wonder if that's a bad idea. &nbsp;Thanks!</p> <p>yay - fits like it should<br />nay - keep looking, it's not the one </p>
