Bra for Grandma :)

My Mom is coming into town this weekend. She lives "up north" where there are little options for shopping. She has requested that I take her someplace she can get a couple of really good bra's. She wondered about Victoria's Secret, but I am guessing she won't like those bras. She is 60, petite (like 115 pounds) and works out every day so she's in great shape. She is also really small chested (so much so that for most of her life she didn't even wear a bra).

I don't think cost is really a concern. She's looking for a good fit in a comfortable bra.

Any suggestions as to where I should take her? Anyone shop at Macy's or Nordstroms? Those were my thoughts but I've never been to either... I am more of a JC Penny gal when it comes to underwear :)

Thanks!
J.

So What Happened?

Well, we went to Nordstroms and it was great! Mom found a couple of great bras, yes they were expensive, but she was thrilled. Thank you for all the great advice!

Nordstroms is awesome, they have the best fitters and the best selection. Especially if she's petite. It's the only place I can find a 32! with good selection. Have fun-you should get yourself fitted too. There is nothing like having a great bra;)

I am thinking that Macy's would be a good fit for her. I know of a few seasoned women that only shop there.

If you do Macy's, I would recommend the downtown store only. Look for one of the ladies who has been there FOREVER to help you. However, my first pick would be Nordstrom. They have a great selection and a very knowledgeable sales staff.

I would recommend Nordstroms. I have a horrible time finding the right fitting bras. I have been fitted as several places and Nordstroms did the best job, very knowledgable and knew excatly what I needed.

I really like Gap Body. They are nice quality, and there are a lot of practical options. I think it is a nice alternative to Victoria's Secret.
