primark used to do plain red t-shirt bras that would be good if you needed to wear under a cami...or, calvin klein used to too

I recently bought a red bra set in Bhs (must have been in a hussy mood that day and I'm sure that they've still got some in.

Tried primark theyu had a very dodgy badly shaped lacy one with lacy knickers. Cost £6 for tthe pair so you can tell how tacky it was.

They did have an expensive branded red one in BHS today but they didn't have it in my size and I probably wouldn't have paid £25 for it anyway.

Its just pissed me off that they had every other colour under the sun in there own brand (which I quite like) except red. Who the fuck wants a turquiose bra?

Just looked - who the fuck would pay £132 for a bra. I am more likely to pay £12.

I need it for Friday so online aint no good.

I might check M&S if I have time.

My back-up plan is my uncomfortable multiway bra with transparent straps...

How would a skin tone bra look under a red cami (which will actually have a nchiffon unic over the top of too),

I was kind of hoping for cheapo £10 job as I won't wear it often. I suspect la senza will be out of rice range...

I'm not meaning you to read anything into this other than genuine helpfulness - but have you tried Ann Summers!
