Bras: Step Two

[nicolewi]

Another year, another bra post!

My DD is moving past the basic stretchy sports-bra type "first bras". I am having a hard time finding band sizes smaller than 34, probably in a wireless style of some sort that looks appropriate for a 12 year old. Any recs? 

Do people really like Yellowberry? I hate to buy her such expensive bras, but if they are really great, I would try it.

Aerie at www.ae.com has many different styles in smll styles.

Aerie! They have a ton of options in smaller band sizes. I wear a 32 and all of my bras are from there. They also have a lot of great bralette options that might work for her.

What I like about yellow berry is that they aren’t padded. So many of the smaller-sized bras I found were padded and I don’t like giving my 11 yo the idea that her breasts should be bigger than they are.

Agree with Aerie.

And fwiw, I wear a 32B and prefer wireless styles without padding, and I have some from Target, their Auden brand. I have to search, but they do have them.

There is also Pepper, but pricey, especially for someone still growing.

My 16 yo liked Aerie at that age. She still buys from there now.

Aerie. I’m a 30 band and love that Aerie carries my size.

Update: I was at Target today, and they have a Jockey line that seemed like it might work. I got some of those and some other ones to try at home. Sometimes going to the store in person is still easier than trying to look online!
