    Know where to get some decent affordable bras? used to shop in la senza or topshop for undies but with money being tight i switched to Penneys but the bras i have bought in there have all turned over at the top like a lip so i don't wear them anymore :rolleyes: anyone?

    I like marks and sparks bras. They're not as cheap as penneys but they're very good.

    Also dunnes do some good ones!

    I got two bras for 7 euro in the sale in New Look recently and they're definitely the best ones I've had in ages, really comfy and supportive and pretty too! Might be worth a look.

    Look out for the 8 euro ones in La Senza, some of my favourite ones have come from that sale! Failing that, the No Romeo range in Dunnes is good, but only goes up to a C cup! (discrimination yes?!)

    Arnotts still have some bras left in their sale, I'd say Debenhams do as well. You'll get really great quality bras for half the price. Sizes are limited, but you might be lucky.

    Marks and sparks do great quality ones!

    H&M bras are great. Hand washing always makes bras last longer.

    I bought a two pack of Marks and Spencers bras for €4 (!!) in the sales a few months ago. Best bras I've ever bought. They fit like a dream!

    TKMaxx is great for good cheaper underwear.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,691 ✭✭✭Lia_lia


    Oh and I think Tesco bras are brilliant. You can find some really pretty ones they and they are SO comfy. And so cheap :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 375 ✭✭MILF


    Avon do a great range of bra's for €9.75 in skintone, black and white. Very comfy and flattering. Plus, if you order them and you dont like them or you need to change the size, you dont need to pay til your satisfied!!

    I second (or third) Tesco, their sizings are spot on, and the quality is comparable with much more expensive brands.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,954 ✭✭✭✭Larianne


    I find Marks n Spencer fit me really well and I picked up some cheap bras and knicks in the Debhenams sale. Don't rate La Senza at all. Just wait for sales and stock up!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39 milklady


    defo try dunnes they have some really nice ones,if u like la senza why not try ebay?u alay get people having put stuff up there that maybe bought and grew out of?? i would buy white bras in dunnes and if i wan tcolourful or going out bras defo m&s,topshop or la senza.pennys are okbut they wash crap,would do for during the week though

    I'm going to throw in another thumbs-up for Marks & Sparks, they're relatively cheap, they last and they do a pretty good range of sizes (down as far as 30 in Limited Collection, possibly even 28, and up as far as a 44J according to their website). One thing I would say though is not to get measured in M&S, practice may have changed sinc eI was last measured there, but I spent years in the common band too large/cup too small club because of getting measured there.

    I don't rate La Senza at all for 'investment' bras, they have some lovely designs but for day to day wear the quality isn't great.

    Me too! Went to debenhams not so long ago up north and got measured there and they were great! Spent loads of time trying different sizes just to make sure I had the right one.

    Not a fan of La Senza either myself. Find their sizing kinda funny too.
