If you decide to shorten this one to the length you're wearing it here, I think you could still hike it up and wear it as a knee-length skirt.Audihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13578485770637036384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8327217397152414129.post-25480929219475022402010-10-26T08:27:42.171-07:002010-10-26T08:27:42.171-07:00hi Cynthia and Sheila! it's not too big, it&#...hi Cynthia and Sheila! it's not too big, it's just old and i need to move in a notch on the hooks! honest! also, i had a blood clot/pulmonary embolism 3 years ago and ever since the left side of my chest/back is SUPER SENSITIVE. so i end up fiddling with my bra even when i don't actually need to (like it's moved literally 1/8", or not at all). it's funny - i try to explain what i'm feeling to my male doc 'it's just along where your bra band hits you, you know?' (blank look) off to Bare Necessities fitting site....<br /><br />ok, i'm back now. according to the Bare Necessities system i am a 32DDD. i don't think i've ever even SEEN that size. if i ever do, i'll give it a whirl and let you know........i especially like the quote on that site: "Measuring yourself for a bra is an art, not a science". my sister worked for a couple of Eastern European bra/corset fitting ladies in their downtown Berkeley lingerie shop for years....nothing beats experience and knowledge of different styles and brands. it turns out some brands are sized for transvestites - who knew! <br /> <br />Sheila, i'd seen you mention your love of football on your site. I'n not surprised AT ALL that you're #1 in your league! i think Mr. E is enjoying it more than he thinks he should...it's not 'serious', but he seems to be having an awful lot of fun so i like it.tinyjuncohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03614867046924013061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8327217397152414129.post-24819326519016843372010-10-26T07:36:02.452-07:002010-10-26T07:36:02.452-07:00If you're tugging down your bra strap, you'...If you're tugging down your bra strap, you're buying bras that are too big around the ribcage (I used to buy 38DDs, thinking they would fit my boobs better - turns out I'm a 34).<br /><br />Love your creativity with the skirt.<br /><br />Ha! I'm a huge football fan - I'm in 1st place in my fantasy league (it's not online).Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07735339885677950350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8327217397152414129.post-19807231866966520212010-10-25T19:23:52.256-07:002010-10-25T19:23:52.256-07:00It's actually on the internet.

For some reason, the way I'm constructed (large rib cage) if I follow the normal measuring instructions from other catalogs, I end up as a 41 -A, but with theirs, I am a happy and well-fit 36C.Cynthiahttp://www.befabulousdaily.usnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8327217397152414129.post-39045942522641633102010-10-25T15:04:07.234-07:002010-10-25T15:04:07.234-07:00Thanks, Cynthia! i'm liking it shorter a lot m...Thanks, Cynthia! i'm liking it shorter a lot myself - i'm just s l o w when it comes to change ; ) but i'm pretty sure i'll end up shortening it.<br />yeah, i could stand some new bras, but bra shopping is hell (not just due to fit)...also, partly all the adjusting is due to over-sensitivity from a medical problem. and thanks for the rec - i'll keep a look out for that book!! stephtinyjuncohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03614867046924013061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8327217397152414129.post-3785410238574758742010-10-25T12:50:52.286-07:002010-10-25T12:50:52.286-07:00The skirt is much more excellent at the shorter le...The skirt is much more excellent at the shorter length, I think. Although keeping it long so you can wear it both ways is flexible, if you think you'll really want to do it. & I'm sure you know this since you are wise but if you're hitching frequently it's time for a re-fit! I found the Bare Necessities bra fitting guide several years ago and it was, no joke, life-changing.Cynthiahttp://www.befabulousdaily.usnoreply@blogger.com
