    I bought these from VS, and now I'm not so sure I can use them under my strapless wedding gown.  :(

    Supposedly you stick them ABOVE your breasts so that they're lifted.  I was looking for something that will give me more "lift" (think "up and together").  But these will totally show above the neckline of my dress.  Any suggestions out there? 

    I'm a small B cup and I have cups sewn into my dress, but they don't do much in terms of adding OOOOOMPH.  :)

    Thanks!

    Here's me in my gown... see what I mean?  Should I just leave it alone and rock what my mama gave me??  LOL.

    They have different ones they have a clasp that go under your boobs to lift and bring together.

    Even department stores have way cheaper one.

    The name brand one is NuBra.

    Since you have cups in your dress, can you add some cutlets underneath to push you up?  Think Take-Outs.

    I think you look lovely! I'd say you could try those babies out, but test them thoroughly - you don't want any crazy warddrobe malfunctions. You know what i do when i need a boost? i roll my shoulders back and make sure my neck is long. Everything just seems perkier - butt, boobs, you name it. I do a little better with my posture (without sticking my chest out) and woohoo!

    A woman I work with told me that to add oomph, get a strapless bra in a size lower than what you wear, but one cup size larger. Like if you are a 38B, get a 36C bra and it adds that oomph.

    I agree with getting  NuBra. I am a 34B and it has done wonders to give me lift (and add a little volume)

    Thanks for the input ladies... I'll have to look into the NuBra.  They sell something similar at VS too.  I'm kinda afraid to add TOO much OOOOMPH.  I still wanna look like myself, not like I got a boob job, lol! Tongue out
