While we love our sports bras, everyone needs something pretty!

For something that will help you feel a bit more sassy, La Perla’s Update Contour Underwire Push-up Bra. It’s not just a push-up bra, it’s also got a deep plunge at the front.

For something that you can wear for work, that gives you full coverage, try Anita’s Rosa Faia Twin Air Soft Cup Bra. This is really everyday wear – good quality and available in beige and black.

If you want something just for comfort and lounging, what about Elita’s Silk Magic Crossover Bra?

Want something that might go beyond your current choices? I found this and suspect it might just be a nice addition – either for under formal wear or just for the boudoir! Take a look for Shirley of Hollywood Satin Jacquard Plus Size Long Line Bustier. It comes in 40A – and is quite lovely, with lace detailing.

I found the La Perla and Anita bras on Bare Necessities. Just click on our “Shop Now” icon to check out their offerings. Be sure to search by your size! I found the Elita and Shirley of Hollywood items on HerRoom. Again – be sure to search for your size.

I am 55 yrs old and had myself measured and was told my size was a 40A. I am very broad but have no chest to speal of. I am not a large women I am 5′ 10 and weigh 145 I think someone got my hips(which I have none even after 2 kids) and my shoulders mixed up. I can not find this size bra anywhere except in a sport bra which i know im 55 but sometimes I like to feel sexy or pretty and all they do is flatten me more. do you have any suggestions

The bra brand that you are looking for is Playtex and the bras in question are the Thank Goodness It Fits® line. Playtex actually call their sizes Nearly B as opposed to "Almost B", which might have thrown you off when looking for them. There is a pretty good range of styles and sizes in the Thank Goodness It Fits bras available through our retail partner, Bare Necessities - and they are on sale right now! Just click on the Bare Necessities icon and do a search Playtex Thank Goodness It Fits and you'll see all of their current offerings.

I used to have bras in “almost B” cup size. I cannot find these anywhere. HELP!! I don’t remember the maker but they came in “almost A”, “almost B”, “almost C” sizes.
