Over the Shoulder Boulder Holder

Yesterday I finally broke down and went shopping for some new over the shoulder boulder holder. Not as easy as it would be back home in the States as I never quite know where to go, if the person helping me will speak English. One thing I do know for certain is that buying a bra here means you will get felt up by the clerk. Happened to me the first time I came here 9 years ago and wanted one of those bras with clear straps. So my then boyfriends mom took me shopping. In the middle of the department store, two clerks (one was her cousin) felt me up to determine my bra size. I kid you not. They were all speaking Greek so I had no idea what was going on. I just stood there. I had only met my now mother in law a couple of days earlier and the other women were strangers.  

Last week, my MIL took me maternity shopping. We looked for bathing suits where once again I got felt up. Not out in the open this time, in the dressing room. The clerk reached right inside the bathing suits and moved my boobs around. I didn’t buy anything that day because 1. the bathing suits made me look like a porn star  and 2. the top cost about $100.

I was so uncomfortable at work yesterday that I kept undoing my bra in the bak.  As soon I left, I went bra/bathing suit shopping. The good news is the clerk spoke English, was very helpful, I got good prices and while I got felt up, it wasn’t quite as invasive as last time. Bad news is that b/c of my giant chest, I didn’t have a lot of choice in bathing suits but at least I got one that fits! 

I have gone from a C to an E cup. Yep, up 3 sizes and I think they are still growing. Pretty soon I will need a real bolder holder. I told my mom we could use my bra as a tent for the baby when it is born it’s so big. Dolly Parton has nothing on me.
