The quest to find the one undergarment!



Being able to find a bra that fits is a real nightmare! I can’t even recall the last time where a single bra at La Senza could me!  A new shop opened in my town, it’s called Changes and it specialised in distributing a vast variety of size. With the help of their clerks I was able to figure out what my true bra size actually was too. But sadly, it’s a hit or miss with their bras

For some reason, I would try one, test it, move and jump around to make sure everything stays in place. I would then proceed to buy it and wear it for the day and after, an hour or two; I get this double boob effect. Not sexy I tell ya!

But, hey, I have no other choice, it’s either this or I go all Amazon style at work. With a J cup?... hmm, not interesting.

Recently, I discovered the /r/bigboobproblems/ subreddit. This place is god sent! After going through a couple of different subjects, I’ve notices that Bra Stop keeps being mention as good and reliable place to find special sized bras. Desperate as I am, I decided to give it a try.

Amazingly, they had a vast variety of bras in my size *Hurray!*. I’ve order this bra (with matching shorts, of course). ;) It has a little romantic and vintage inspired look, I like that!

And it fit! Really! *Win!* The bra itself feels sturdy and not cheap... and it look awesome too.

I was so pleased by this item that I reordered already (sport bras this times, yep).

Hairdo with traditional swiss costume

Just a quick post to share this beautiful picture I've found in a pamphlet at the SBB (it was about a agricultural festival in St-Gallen, with apparently traditional costumes and activities).



I really like that up-do, it looks like a dutch braid with added dried flowers, green leaves, white pearls and tiny cedar branches.

I never really know what to do with my hair when I go full dressed in my traditional costume. So, here is one cute idea!

Newly born blog!

Here it goes!

I'm starting this new blog to keep a record of my life as newcomer in Switzerland. I will also use it also to talk about stuff I love! Mainly sewing, vintage fashion, travels and recipes.

Tschüß!
