This is hilarious. But seriously, yes, this is a very country thing to do. I'm from the South and I think of larger, very well endowed women storing money, cigarettes, phone, etc there. Anything important gets stowed down the shirt for safe keeping. It's like a clown car in there and you never know what will get pulled out. |
I’m the DIL who posted that. I LOL’d when I read your comment. Perfect description. |
Ha - thanks! |
| Somehow, even as a child I was aware of the tackiness of placing money and etc in a bra. I remember someone doing it at an amusement park and it just seemed cheep. |
Cheep, cheep. We chickens have breasts, but no pockets. |
| Ugh, I used to know a woman who would carry things around in her bra, pull them out, and want you to hold them while she adjusted. Definitely avoided her because I didn't want to get stuck holding her cell phone that was covered in boob sweat. |
Never seen. Beyond tacky. |
| I used to know someone who was involved in Society for Creative Anachronism (medieval dress-up and chain mail) who bought an old lady's corset at a thrift store years ago (the kind my grandma's used to wear, they were born in 1880 and 1890). She'd had it for a long time when she noticed it felt like there was something inside, and turned out there was a couple of grand in $50 bills (series from the 1950s) sewed into the corset. |

When I traveled the world by myself as a solo woman I actually sewed pockets into my bra and my mom made me little absorbent sleeves that fit perfectly in the bra pockets, I kept all my money and cards in them. Traveled the world for a year and it worked great! Never lost anything, never had anything stolen.
I have never done this at home, only on the road. |
|
Well put me on the tacky train. I keep my phone,money and sometimes chap stick in my boobs on the daily.
It has served me well. |
You've...never seen this....for real....? I don't do it in business settings, but you bet I do when I need to get from A to B in a hurry with no pockets. |
Wow! |
|
Anything in any pocket is going to have sweat on it. Around here anyway. If I hand you my wallet, it's covered in my butt sweat. So is my hand now.
I know, wrong thread. |
| one of the women we travel with does this in las vegas casino. we tease her when she wins and her bra is bulging. |
| I'll admit, when I need my hands free for a moment, I have sometimes wedged my phone under my bra strap so it's sort of sitting on the front of my shoulder. Anything inside the cup, though? No. |
