I was recently in one of my favorite stores. In my group of friends we refer to it by its little known french name Tarjay…you may know it as Target. A couple of my friends refer to it as the “hundred dollar store” since that is what their bill always seems to be.
I must be getting rusty since one of my recent outings there was just one dollar!
So I was ambling down the aisle the other day and much to my surprise I discovered that my t-shirt has a best friend.
Really? Does this mean I have to arrange play dates?
Turns out I was in for about 15 minutes of entertainment. What can I say, I am easily amused.
Where was I you ask?
I made the mistake of thinking I could just whip into the “lingerie aisle”, pick up a couple of bras in my size and be on my merry way.
NOT
Yes, true confessions. I buy my bras at Target but maybe for not much longer.
Bra shopping in and of itself can be maddening. Once you find one you like and fits you well you had better buy all you can afford because the evil bra makers will discontinue it if they find out it is well liked. I don’t understand their logic but that is what seems to happen to me and lots of other women.
So this is the first sign I see that led to believe there is whole new world of bra relationships out there!
Not just my t-shirts BFF but her NEW BFF! Wow…what have I been missing here..there is a party in my closet that I was NOT invited to!
Of course no relationship would be complete without that helpful bra!
Lift me and I’ll return the favor!
Gives new meaning to the phrase “tit for tat”
This was getting good. Who knew this would be so entertaining.
Turns out there is one that gives away the secret to SMOOTH success!
And its beyond bare. Funny I thought beyond bare was just plain naked.
This next one has it all wrong.
I got news for the Genie bra..this is not what all women wish for. Last time I checked most women wanted a cleaning lady, a nap and dinner ready when they got home. Maybe that has changed since the bestseller “The 50 Shades of Grey ” has come out. I’ll let you know after I read it. Who wants to lend it to me?
On top of everything else now our bras need to be accessorized. Give them a BFF and they become high maintenance.
$24.99 to accessorize my bra? Not happening here no matter what her BFF says.
And this one doesn’t want to confused with anything techy..so instead of wireless its
wire free and not short on self -esteem since it deemed itself “simply perfect”
And of course we have to have the “Snooky” in this group of bra friends.
mmmm..no thanks.
Last but not least we have the over achieving bra.
It is the bra of your dreams, stays up ALL day and I would guess the night as well, it self expresses and is heaven sent.
WOW!
I did end up finding two bras, not sure if they are becoming my t-shirts new BFF. I’ll let you know. In the meantime I have to check out this new store that actually gives its bras names like Hannah, Misty and Suzi.
I can just see it now.
“What a pretty name, were you named after a relative? “No I was named after Mommy’s favorite bra!
Gotta run…I hear a party going on in my closet!
If this really reflected the real me it would read “Cheap White Zinfandel” . My best friend actually thinks I should call it “swill” since that is what she claims I drink. Hey I never claimed to have discriminating taste in wine. Besides the joke is on her because when I break out the “swill” she breaks out the good stuff which I am more than happy to drink!
Someone at the liquor store at the beach has a sense of humor. In full disclosure and because he reads my posts ( because I make him) my hubby rarely takes a day off, is not a cheap bastard and buys my cheap wine AND puts up with me and my whining/wining.
