My Favorite Everyday Bras

Sep 8

Happy #FitTipTuesday, my friends! I hope you had a nice long weekend, I am back at it this week to share a post I’ve been hesitant to share for a very long time - my favorite everyday bras! Why so hesitant? Well, undergarments are all based on preference and your individual shape/size! What works for me, won’t necessarily work for you. With that said, I’m happy to share what works for me. Just keep in mind that finding properly fitting undergarments is a journey and it’s 100% okay if these styles don’t work for you. A lot of times I’ll hear that gals don’t like underwire bras but 9/10 times its because they’ve never worn one that fits like it’s supposed to.

I encourage you to take a look at the fit focused retailers mentioned on my Properly Fitting Bra Club page. I'd also like to add HerRoom and Bare Necessities to that list- you can shop both sites by bra size. Amazon is also a great option if you’re looking to try a few different styles + sizes on, since they're so good with returns! You can refer back to resources on my website like these Quick Fit Tips and Tips for At Home Bra Fittings if you’re unfamiliar with proper fit. You are also free to utilize and participate in my Properly Fitting Bra Club Facebook group for troubleshooting, upon answering the questions and agreeing to the rules!

let’s talk bras!

1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10

1 - This is my go-to bra that I wear almost every day, I have it in EVERY color! | 2 - This one comes up in second place, this is the COMFIEST bra when properly fitted. | 3 - This bra is one of the best t-shirt bras for fuller figures | 4 - This bra is also a full busted favorite for t-shirts and breathability. | 5 - I love the lace on this one and the smooth fabric in the back | 6 - This bra is technically not a t-shirt bra but I love wearing it underneath tees, I love the low gore (center wire) | 7 - For when I want to show a little bra, in a tasteful way- pair this bra underneath a white button down or low-cut top! | 8 - Supportive bras can be sexy too, I love this bra and that it comes in white for the brides! CARALYN20 should still work for 20% off | 9 - Very similar to #5, it’s a beautiful bra with a houndstooth lace that comes in a smaller range | 10 - the most I have ever spent on a bra but WOWZA it’s one of my favorites for a reason. I love how round the shape is without any added bulk! Bonus that it’s on sale and you can support a small business in Buffalo, definitely contact them if you’re unsure on size.

FAQ’s:

You may notice that I prefer bras with minimal padding. When you’re a full busted gal like myself, you will get the best support from a cut and sewn or unlined bra. It took me a little while to get used to but it feels so much lighter and supportive without any added bulk. Most of the bras linked above have flatter seams that don’t show through this tops. They’re not for everyone but I’d highly encourage you to give them a shot!

Re: headlights (nipples showing) let me remind you that we all have ‘em — they’re nothing to be ashamed of. When you align yourself up properly with the seams of the bra, that usually keeps them down. When in serious doubt, you can use reusable nipple covers linked here and also here!
