I am the type of person that if I find something that works for me, I will stick with it for a long..long time. So 4 years ago I purchased a bra at VS and I was told my size is a 38DD, of course I was measured. I believed the sales clerk and happily purchased my new bra. I wore this bra at least 3-4 times a week for a long, long time. However, I can't afford to purchase a bra like that on a regular. I was told about JCP because I needed a strapless bra for my best friend wedding. I went to JCP, I was measured and I was told I needed a 38 D..so again, I believed the sales clerk and happily purchased 2 bras. The bras looked nice, I was happy, (so I thought) but as time went on, my girls would smash into each other and the girls was runneth over my cup...not sexy..I don't need that type of extra attention.
Fast forward, my sister-in-law told me about central foundation, at least 8 months ago. I decided to go on Yelp to see what other folks were saying about C.F. I was reading the reviews and I was surprise to see a review from one of my coworkers. She gave the place 5 stars ( a few days later I saw her at work and we talked about C.F and she bragged about the place) and was very happy with her purchase.
Present day, I visited the shop 6/2012 and when I walked into the store, I was a little surprise to see the interior outdated, the store did not meet the image I created in my head, however two women I trust, love this place and they purchased items from this store, so I did not let my idea image stop me.
The first person to greet me was pleasant and friendly. Of course, I thought it would be like the fitting at VS or JCP and then I would be assigned a new bra number and cup size. Sue came in, measured me quickly, to quick I thought and brought me back two bras in a size 36G....please understand I had to review my alphabet table because I thought to myself, with a confusing look on my face and my hands in the air.....I wear a 38 D or 36DD (depends on who make the bra...as you can tell I needed help) not a G, I have been wearing some form D..size bras for at least 10-12 years. So with hesitation, I took the bra and placed it over my girls, and I thought, lets see if this lady knows what she is doing. The cups covered the girls, so I inserted my arms into each of the openings.....
Well, I be damn....she was like 99% right, I needed a 34G. I was shocked..and in awe. The material felt so good on my body..there was no spillage on the side, in the front, the bottom and the girls did not sag. I purchased two bras and a bustier from this wonderful shop. Sue was kind and patient, I did not feel like she was trying to "handle me." you know, make me feel like I had to purchase the bras. I couldn't wait to wear my new bras. I finally have the right bra that works for me and allow my girls to be all they can be. Thank You C.F...and yes I will be back.
Psst....they also have a lay-away plan for at least 30 days...how cool is that... I didn't have time to investigate it fully...but I will. read more
