The Holy Grail, boob- filled

[heatherella]

In the girlie-girl retail world, there are a few items that we hold in the highest esteem (maybe "worship" is more accurate). We shout it from the mountain-tops if we ever manage to find them and search for years if we can't. Some examples

You have pretty outstanding shopping prowess. I know it sounds crazy, but I got an awesome bra like that from Hanes. I know, Hanes. I'd link to them, but I can't be bringing up screens of bras at work. See if they have your size.

I like the Angels collection (but not the push up kind because I don't need more of that) by Victoria Secret. They look great great but they are only a medium on my Holy Grail Scale.

What scores highest for me on the HGS is the Body by Victoria series.

I'll look into your suggestion for bras next time I need a new one.

Also to add to your list:
A great pair of sunglasses that ALWAYS looks good

Sunglasses- good one!

Man, if they made it in cotton, I would be THERE. I can't stand having anything but cotton next to my skin all day. Which means I am stuck in the plain Jane bras forever. Sigh.

Wow, I never thought I'd find someone pickier than I am. Maybe they'll make this one in cotton someday- that would be excellent. Seriously- I still can't believe I get this kind of support without underwire. Aint science somethin!?

I found Vicky's wore out pretty quickly for me to be spending $50 a pop on a bra there. Now I'm onto cheap bras from Gap and Target. They wear out too, but I only pay $25 each. There's a lingerie store in Concord that I plan to check out for my birthday - they do the thing that Tim Gunn makes all his girls do: get fitted by people who know what they're doing (ie, not the tweenies that work at VS). I'll prolly spend $50-$100 for a bra there, but it'll be worth it.

[heatherella]

Oooh, that sounds embarrassing but totally worth it.
