F*@% Victoria Secret
I hate Victoria's secret. I really do.
Even their models hate it.
Their cute and sexy bras are only for tiny boobies. If you are over a 34C US sizing, good luck because your colors will be limited to red black tan and white. If you see the patterned bras for for the larger chested lady, they usually resemble your Grand mothers flowered lace curtains and the shoulder straps are made from seat belts. They are huge and unflattering.. and they want like 50 bucks for the crappiest one.
I hate seeing all the girls go in their wasting their money and saying oooh I love Victoria's, their bra's are so cute! Who cares about cute. The only person who will say your bra is cute is your sister, you mom and your friend that helped you pick it out. Your bra should be functional AND OR sexy. Your boyfriend or husband doesn't want to be reminded of his horrible childhood when he was forced to fold his mom's and sisters clothes... yuck. They want sexy not cute or for you to feel comfortable and not be bitchy, either will do.
Trust me, just because your husband/boyfriend watches the Victoria Secret Catwalk show on TV every year doesn't mean you should wear the stuff. It is just an excuse to look at hot women and say things to justify it like, honey you would look good in that.. and I like that color.. and what ever else he can say that sounds convincing enough to you so he can keep watching. Boys have internet and magazines and those girls are often NOT wearing fluffy white panties and diamond encrusted bras with gaudy angel wings on their backs.
So.. and I get a lot of slack, but I prefer Fredericks. Ewwww.. I always hear. Slutty girls shop there. They always have moderately impractical dress up lingerie in their store front which seems to turn people off. But, if you went in and did a test drive of their bras, I am sure your opinion would differ. They are comfortable, last forever, come in TONS of colours and they have bras for all booby sizes.. no discrimination.
Yes they have dress up stuff and neat things to stuff your bra with to make you look bigger.. but they also have bras for every style of clothing, changeable straps and in their catalogue there is even more. They have clothes and a lot of them are really cute! They are also for women with bigger boobs who can't always fit in to the 3 inches they allow for your boobs in a baby doll top.
Pricing? Reasonable and a little less than Victoria secret. They have bras that feel good and look good and that your friends wouldn't always look at and say ooh how cute! But they work... and I have never been disappointed. I can go on about Victoria's Secret stuff but I won't.
Will I find something at Victoria Secret that I will like? Of course. I don't hate just to hate. But I will always try my luck at Fredericks first.. me and all the other "slutty" chicks.
