7 Bra Issues Every Woman Has to Deal with ...

Holly Apr 4, 2014

There are bra issues we’ve all been subjected to. Even though we wear them beneath our clothes, they still manage to cause trouble in our everyday lives. Nothing can ever be easy, can it? Here are some of the bra issues you’ve probably dealt with before and will deal with again:

1. Strap Showing

For some reason, people get offended when a woman’s bra strap is showing. They know she’s wearing one, but the sight of the strap makes them cringe. They act as if her entire shirt fell off. It’s a mystery why people are offended when a strap is visible, but it’s one of the bra issues we have to deal with.

2. Mismatched Madness

Sometimes, we find the perfect bra. It fits wonderfully, and has gorgeous details. Of course, once you find that bra, you’ll never find underwear to match it. Unless you’re in a serious relationship, or changing in a gym locker room, no one will notice you’re mismatched, but it’s still frustrating. Wearing matching clothes makes you feel powerful, like you can take on the world.

3. Digging into Skin

After overusing it, the underwire can break apart and dig into your skin. It’s painful, but we have to fight through it. If your favorite bra is the one that is falling apart, you can’t just throw it out. You have to keep on wearing it until it completely destroys your skin. You need to get your money’s worth, after all.

4. Uncontrollable Crumbs

You’re eating when all of a sudden you feel food fall onto your chest and land in your bra. Of course, it doesn’t stay in an easily accessible place. To get it out, you have to fish around, looking like a psychopath. If you're lucky, you'll be alone when it happens. When it occurs in a public place, you either have to excuse yourself, make a scene, or suffer through the sensation of having a crumb-filled brassiere.

5. See-through Shirts

Why are so many shirts made of transparent material nowadays? Even though you love your bra, you don’t want everyone seeing it through your shirt. You’re wearing that shirt so that you’re covered up. The fact that it’s see-through defeats the purpose of wearing it at all. Now, you have to throw on layers so that your skin is sufficiently covered.

6. Strap Snapped

You’re having a great day, and it all comes tumbling down when your bra snaps. You can't walk around with the strap falling down your body, and the bra losing the support you expect it to give you. You have to become MacGyver and fish through your pocketbook to find something that will hold it together for the rest of the day. A girl's work is never done...

7. Twisted Back Attack

You usually notice this right away, but if you’re in a rush you may do it by accident. You put on your bra, but twist the back, and clasp it together. You run out of the house, and have to deal with an uncomfortable lump pushing on your back until you have time to go to the bathroom to fix it. There's an easy solution, but that doesn't make it any less irritating.

Taking off your bra at the end of the day is always relaxing. Of course, it can be fun to go shopping for them and picking out fabulous designs. Do you have a favorite bra?

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

I frequently experience that the strap of my bra is falling down that makes me feel uncomfortable especially when I am the public. I don't know why it happens always in spite that I checked it before leaving our house. Maybe there's something wrong with my shoulders, I don't know.

When lying down bras are so uncomfortable. They ride up your back.

I have had all of these issues! Especially when the wire pops out and pokes you. I can understand the first one only if the girl is dressed slutty. But if it's showing accidentally then politely tell her that it's showing and she will be thankful you said so. Love this post!

I feel number one so hard ugh

Lol all so true!!! Although I've never had a strap break or a wire poke me, but I buy from VS and they're so comfy and great quality!!!

My bra cups are too small and the band is too big, but it's the biggest I can buy with out going online so it fits weirdly, slides down the front, rides up the back, pokes the inner boob, is ugly, is expensive, has thick straps and a granny design. I'm 16 -_-

Lovely to read some real girl stuff and knowing i m not the only one facing these hassles.... Still beautiful lingerie makes me feel fab!

That was funny we can all relate

The best thing about bras is when you get to take them off at the end of the day! Aaaaahhhh!

If it's too tight to big,to thin too ugly,too wierd,too uncomfortable,too strappy,too crappy..
