Storm in a D Cup

Firstly a welcome to our newest contributor, K, of The Life and Times of K.We hope you enjoy her posting and her viewpoint as much as we do.

Have you heard of this company?

Storm in a D Cup is an online store who stock bras in sizes from a D-cup onwards (all the way to an L! - although not in every style).
They stock bras from well-known brands like Freya, Elle MacPherson and Triumph.

The website offers a good range of everyday bras, sports bras, maternity bras, swimwear and sleepwear.
And... (wait for it...) pretty bras! I don't know about you, but at a DD-E its nearly impossible to find a supportive, comfy bra that doesn't make me feel 'matronly'.

Check some of these out:
This is the "Antique Rose Minimizer" from Triumph.

Its sized from a 10 to 18, Cup DD to G.

There's a matching brief and g-string too (*sigh* - I heart sets)










Or this one, which is the "Isabella Lace Bra"by Le Mystère.

This one is sized from a 10 to 16, cup-sized D, E and F (no DD? - bizarre) and has a matching g-string too.









Storm in a D-Cup are currently offering a $5 discount voucher if you sign up to their monthly newsletter (so I did).

Because its an online store, fitting is always going to be a bit tricky. There's a link on the site to a Fitting Guide, and there's also a 100% exchange/return policy within 30 days.

There is a store in Bondi Junction (fittings by appointment only), but what I really love about this set up, is that they have your size. I always get the cranks when I find a bra I love, and its made in my size, and its not on the rack! ARGH! I'll order online to get what I want any day.

The bras aren't the cheapest (department store prices) but for the sheer convenience, I'm willing to give it a go.

I haven't actually ordered anything from this website yet, but as soon as my $5 voucher comes through I'll be placing an order. And I promise to blog about the result.

Have you had any experiences (good or bad) with Storm in a D-Cup? Let us know on the comments page.

Polkadot - Beautiful by Triumph

I've literally just purchased this bra and I'm thrilled with the fit. I'm wearing it right now as I type.
Beautiful is a story by Triumph of larger bras for "curvy" women that are still pretty and sexy. I must say I think they've nailed it mostly.

Support & Comfort
- 5 / 5
Fantastic fit, really pleased.

Overall Look - 4.5 / 5
Great look, very pretty and makes my boobs look great.

Wearability
- 5 / 5
At this point, no problems, quite snug and don't feel like I'm going to pop out at all.

Price
- $59.99 rrp but if you're quick, DJ's has 30% off in the post Christmas sales.

Size Range
- 10-18 DD-G (Hell yeah for supporting larger cups!)

Colour Range -
The colours shown above only.

Other Accessories
-
A "Hikini" brief only, shown above which is a bit of a bummer, would have liked a G. Sizes S-XL

Stockists Triumph have dedicated stores shown on their website, are available at DJ's or Find online at BellaForma, Blest Bras or Zodee.
* If you have any feedback on the format of this review or the scoring, please leave a comment. Thanks :-)
