boobs on the bed or bra in the box?

are you a boobs on the bed or bra in the box woman?

allow me to explain further.

at the end of the day, when you shrug off your clothes just prior to

a) shower

b) passion

c) pajamas

and you casually toss your bra off your lovely person, when it lands, does it still appear like there are boobs in it? if you are a victoria secret or la senza aficianado, chances are highly rated, YES. you know these bras…when packing a suitcase, you can store pantyhose, medication, knickers and all sorts of items in the "cup" area because it is so padded. BOOBS ON THE BED BRA.

BOOBS ON THE BED bras are sold on hangers.

however,

BRAS IN A BOX are sold, surprise, in boxes.

BRAS in a BOX tend to have collapsable cups, shall we say. the cup is made of fabric, no foam. (then again, i suppose the same could be said of my b00bs!) when you casually toss the bra in a box off your person, the cup fabric could easily fold over itself or crumple, where as BOOBS ON THE BED remain mountainous and firm. it's the foam.

this summer, charmaine and i went bra shopping. oy, that was an experience. first we went to victoria's secret for me, because i am a hybrid BOOBS/BRA girl,and i needed to get my latest VS love bra, the IPEX full coverage bra. underwire, just enough foam to protect me, and a great fabric. highly recommended.

and then, it was to macy's for charmaine, who is of the bra in the box variety of girl. now may i say, she looked around VS for quite some time, and tried a few bras on, but was unimpressed with all the foam.

"i have all i need" she grumbled. "they're charging me $70 for bigger boobs when i don't want them?" she is quite ungrateful with her booby bounty, obviously.

we walked around to a few more places, among them lasenza, until she said, "tess, i want a place where i can pull out shelves and look for sizes."

"charmaine," i said, "you want bra in a box."

so we went to macy's. or sears. or somewhere. (we did a lot of shopping). and once there, charmaine began grumbling about having to push through the stands and stands of boobs on the beds on their hangers in order to get to the bras in the boxes in their "chests" of drawers. "Where else should bras be but in chests?"

(LOVE THAT GIRL).

charmaine bought several bras in boxes and i bought two, one warners and one wonderbra. and later on, in walmart a few days later i bought a sports bra (nike) from the bra in the box variety.

it seemed to us, that we were the youngest people in the bra in the box department. why? marketing or actual preference?

at the end of the day, is your bra boobs on the bed or a bra in the box? and why???
