chafing

[Guest guest]

hi ,

a year ago i spent a fortune on underwear. i have 2 very comfortable

brassieres, and one not as comfortable. but even the comfie ones, i

still chafe under the breasts and it's very uncomfortable. i spent $50

for each of the comfie ones. and they are underwires. i don't know what

brand; i don't feel like taking it off to look or going upstairs to look

at the other one right now. I'll try to remember to email that info

later.

thanks for the tip...Wacoal. where can i find them?

i get mine from a small store owned and run by an older woman who has

been doing this for decades and knows how to properly fit. she also

specializes in bras for us big gals.

about the thighs, i wear men's boxers but they don't do the trick. where

can i find your bloomer type thingies? i would love them as i wear

skirts most of the time. i look much better in them than pants. huge

butt and thighs can be more easily disguised in a skirt that is

flattering (not always easy to find). i wear a denim skirt most of the

time. it's my uniform. that and lands end tops with a deep scoop neck

which is also more flattering.

thanks,

laura

1) are you wearing properly fitting bras? I spent

many years in agony before someone gave me

their *used* Wacoal bra. I was *stunned* at

how comfortable it is. They are over $50 each

but I don't care. I haven't worn any other

brand in 5 years. I literally can't even tell

I have one on, and I used to be so uncomfortable,

I couldn't lean over to pick up stuff without

being jabbed, I would be bleeding from being

rubbed raw. If Wacoal doesn't work, try some other

high end brands (by high end, I mean well designed!)

2) I don't wear skirts or pants with too long

of a rise. I wear long boxer shorts, or garments

I can't really describe--almost like bloomers or

old-school knickers. Loose, light, breathable

cotton that sits near my torso but hangs down

to keep my thighs from chafing.
