Another "oldie" worth another go..
For quite some time I have felt that when reaching for “a” bra to wear, my brain does not tell me its “a bra” or even “the bra”,(I am about to put on).
My femme brain says to me, “where is MY bra”. (And oh how I love the decision about which one to wear!!!…). Style is easy, they are all underwire, colour is important as is fit, depending on which set of breast forms I plan to insert therein..
Anyone else have the same thoughts???
Happy dressing

Caty -
Interesting - honestly never think about it. For me when I am dressing putting on a bra is just part of getting dressed. As they are mine I never think about it as "my bra" or "a bra" just which one am I going to wear. I have several different ones from hook behind, hook in front and pull over, some are lacy, some are padded, some are a jersey material with lace trim. Which one I wear depends on the outfit I am going to wear. One was an underwire but I found it to be annoying so took the wire out. I don't have breast forms but do use rice filled pantyhose at times in my larger bras. I have A/B moobs and the feeling of wearing a bra is wonderful.

After I select and set out what I plan to wear. I then go in and select my under clothes. Style, padding or not and color all have to be considered so as to go along with my outer garments.
Its such a fun process
Good day ladies,
Well I’m not sure if I think “ a bra “ but rather my bra and one of the first things I put on when I wake up. Nightie off and bra then pantyhose go on. I wear a bralette daily so it’s become second nature to reach for it. More so than not it’s a lace bralette which I have in many colours. If I’m wearing my forms I’ll go with one of my bras for them.
I just pick which bra i think would go with my panties colour wise i have all different styles but my favourite is my cross your heart bra as this was first style i wore of my mams
I really never give it much thought as I put on a bra upon rising as normally as washing up. It is just a natural thing to do.
Deciding on which bra to wear is fun.
All my bras are Bali T-Shirt underwires, same style, various colors, because I find them so comfortable. I never tire of putting on a bra because wearing one, with my breast forms, gives me a very femme sensation.
I love my bras, as a trans woman I've been wearing a bra everyday and it has been so wonderful! Now that I found out I am intersex and I've always been a woman, the thrill seems even better! I like my bras to be pretty as well as comfy, the one's I wear every day are made by WonderBra, same company that makes Bali. Instead of trying to describe them, here's a link;

I love all my bras and bralettes. I have 10 lace bralettes. I wear them (underdressed) when I'm out and about with small silicone inserts in the pockets. While I'm in my car, I also have DD cup triangle forms inside the bralette. If it's cool weather and I'm wearing a coat/jacket, I leave the forms in place when I'm in a retail store. In warmer weather, I remove the DD forms before going in stores. I have DD teardrop forms that I wear to bed and around the house with underwire bras. I suspect I have about a dozen bras. Four or 5 are front closers and the rest are back closure bras. I do have 1 F cup bra to use with a pair of F cup forms. I only wear this bra and the F forms to bed - maybe 50% of the time. All my bras have a lace pattern to them. I have bras with 2 hooks, 3 hooks, and 4 hooks. My bralettes are both 4 hooks and 5 hooks. I actually almost feel undressed when I'm not wearing a bra. I suspect a typical 24 hour period sees me wearing a bra or bralette a minimum of 12 hours and a maximum of 18 hours. It is rare that I have one on 24 hours - although that has been the case from time to time.
Like you, I don't pick a bra. I pick MY bra. I had not thought about that until reading it here. I dont know when they quit being just bras to my bras but it's a wonderful thought to think of such a feminine article as mine. All of my bras are underwire styles. Some are lined but most are unlined. When I pick which bra to wear, it depends on what I plan on wearing that day. I like wearing tops that show off my boobs. Also, I love to wear a bra that allows my nipples to show. I feel that enhances my femme look and it also gets the men looking and flirting. I love that. The color that I pick depends on which top i am wearing. I love wearing one of my white bras if i am wearing a white top. I have several chiffon tops that are fairly sheer. I usually pick a black or nude color bra for those. I wear a size 44C with triangle forms that I sometimes glue on but mostly just wear them supported only by my bra. Because of that, I only wear full coverage bras. I only buy bras where the part between the cups isntbtoo tall. Maybe 2 to 2.5 inches. I guess that's about it, except to say, wearing my bra is the most wonderful feeling. I know everyone can relate to that!

I love my bras too. Pretty much all of them are underwire and I have them in black, beige and white. Love feeling the gentle hug when I'm wearing one. And of course they are so necessary to keep my boobs from falling off. 🙂
I have over 40 bras and I love everyone of them. Most of them are underwire padded push-ups; ranging in size from 36D,DD; 38C,D,DD; to 40C,D in 12 colors and 1 print/pattern. Lately I've noticed that I've needed to learn bra sizes from outside the United States: United Kingdom (and Canada, I think) is the same as the U.S., although for me France is 100D, European Union is 80E to 85C,D, Japan is E85, and Australia is 16D.
In recent years I've branched out into other styles; strapless in 2020 & 2023, soft cup in 2021, and bralettes in 2022. I also have 2 longline bustiers/basques, 1 longline "merry widow" "bra", and 4 midline bustiers; some of my bras also fall into this midline style.
Hi Caty I love underwired and padded bra's, all mine are like that, I love Lacey one's the best with lots of lace,
I have lots of different styles and colours but i like my Red and Black one's the best X

OMG, Denise...don't get me started on the topic of exposed nipples...I've already gotten a "wrist slapping" from admin here and a photo rejected...SHAME on ME...hahaha...!!! Lesson learned...carrying on....I love my sheer, black pocket bra, with my 48C fitting silicon forms and my XL attached nipples that POP...they make me feel so feminine, yet confident, especially for this 3X plus-size CD...as all is in proportion to complete the illusion and the look I desire...!!!
