When Should You Throw Away Your Bra

You are not treating the ‘gals’ right if you over use your bras. A good brassiere does wonders; it tucks you in and lifts you in all the right places. Knowing how to wash and care for your bras properly can make them last longer but how long is too long? There would  come a time when your bra’s makes don’t perform the way they are supposed to especially if you are type that has kept them for a few tens.

Listed below are some signs that would tell you it’s time to say good bye to your good ol’ bra;

1. When the cup of the bra begins to look very WEIRD.

2. When there is a terrible smell around the underarm that just refuses to go away no matter how hard you try.

3. When you can feel metal digging into your skin, from places in the bra you never knew metals existed.

4. When your strapless bra begins to loose its strap (it constantly drops to your waist).

5. If you would be embarrassed when someone goes through your bra drawer.

6. When the one or two of the hook and eye closures have been bitten away by your dog or are nowhere to be found.

7. When there are weird fat bulges and holes around the lace.

8. When you constantly have to re-adjust the length of your strap because it keeps dropping to your elbow.

9. When you can see read marks/indention on your skin after wearing the bra all day (obviously that’s a sign that it’s now too tight).

10. When the fabric used to be dark pink now its a white washed pink.

11. When you are uncomfortable and you find out after a quick peek in the bathroom that the straps have bruised your skin.

So ladies, I think these 11 signs are good enough.
