Freecycle

Hey ladies - don't forget to Freecycle! Go to freecycle.org and find your nearest city. Join their group. My local group is a yahoo group, but it wasn't hard to get an e-mail address and join. Sometimes you can get clothing for free. If used isn't your thing, its a pretty great idea to pass your too small, too big, too much work to fix, out of style, and mistake items on to someone who can't afford them. Great way to declutter the house too!

Bras for mommies and/or plus sizes

Do you have any idea how hard it is to find odd bra sizes? I'm a 36 DDD. They don't carry that in the mall! Best place I've found so far is Lane Bryant (online or you can order in store). I was surprised because I'm not really the size for that store (12). They actually carry my size and the ones I purchased fit great. I strongly recommend the demi push up and the balconette. Warning - when you pull the balconette out of the box, it looks huge. but the silhouette it gives you is AWESOME. Anyhow, if your boobs will never be the same after baby and Victoria's Secret is no longer being shared with you, its a great option. They are expensive - over $30 each - but if you catch them at a buy two get two free sale, its great. Right now you can buy one and get one half off. Check it out, ladies!
