I can't wear spaghetti straps with NO bra. Then I'll have NO TITS and that isn't a good look.

[morningpaper]

Look, I just HAVE to wear a bra with SERIOUS PADDING. There's no way around it.

But all my dresses have spaghetti straps.

Is it A REALLY AWFUL CRIME? Or if the bra and the straps are both black, is it okay?

Please let me know.

sorry SCIWI

this was to YOU darling:

"blimey at those bra straps

not the solution though, I feel, I will be The Lady With The Bra Straps which is not something I am aiming for"

£20+ for BRA STRAPS?!

Where Is the list of attendees?

On the meetup thread....

That's me told then

That will teach me to read threads properly!

Something rather poetic about The Lady with the Bra Straps, though.

what are spaghetti straps are they just thin straps i think i am wearing something like that to the xmas thing..you will see my muscles

i have no shame

let's stand together

in the corner

i won't terll you that i am wearing a 4.99 swimming costume from asda underneath mine..i have cut off the halter neck strap

oooh swimwear too

what an exciting party it is going to be!

and as i may struggle to go to the loo having a kind of zipped skin tight strappy top over a swim costume and drinking alcohol i have hacked off the bottom bit...i am assuming i won't be shagging lol

looks like you have pulled mp!

strapless bra woman fgs

OR

do the contrasting strap thing

I used to do this in a past life with wispy things from Calvin Klein

I have photographed various dresses

I might put them on my profile for Advance Judging

take dress with you to check for bulgy bra bits

zippy - what ARE you wearing, it sounds erm odd

I ahve decided I can't spend £250 on a night out so am not going . And there isn't any room at your inn

Ahh. A familiar problem. I have nowt up top. I made it as far as a pathetic just-B while breastfeeding. Made the mistake several years ago of buying a cut-on-the-cross-spagetti-strapped-shows-everything-you-both-have-and-haven't-got dress which precipitated a general underwear crisis but with a particular focus on the boob area.... Eventually after much weeping and wailing in various changing rooms around the country, found a strapless, padded, insert what you like (chicken fillets, socks, bog roll, whatevers to hand) bra by Triumph. Not sure if they still do them, but there is something out there for you.... if you are prepared to hunt.

Oh, just had a thought. There is lingerie shop on the High Street in Keynsham called Perfect Fit. Think they also have a website. I am told they can solve ALL bra problems. I intend to try them out the minute my pair go back to their regular non-existent size (or whatever's left of them by then).

lol my modesty blaise outfit

zippi - photo please of this garment!!!

I dream of having part of my a* siphoned out and injected into my saggy boobs. They have practically reached my arse anyway.

Spaghetti straps - don't, not a good look unless your body perfect in every way.

More is more, where evening dresses and less than perfect bodies are concerned - as in more fabric = more sex appeal.

Only show off good bits and buy excellent underwear.

i don't have a photo my dd1 says it looks nice lol

what about this

Stick a couple of chicken fillets in for extra oomph!

what size are you?

there are some bras at M&S that sort of uplift.

Just be careful though and do try them on - some of them squish your boobs and contort them into the strangest positions and if they are going to be prominently displayed under said dress, you'd need to know this in advance.

sadly my boobs are never prominently displayed

I'm a 34a I think

bloody breastfeeding

Anna, this is for the MUMNET XMAS MEET UP. I am not ACTUALLY trying to get laid. I'm not sure why it requires "excellent underwear" (unless I have really misunderstood the plan for the evening...)
