help me pick a glamourmom tank?

they're on zulily today - I'm thinking of getting one of the transition nursing tanks, but i'm not sure what size?  last time i was measured, I was a 34DD but the one bra I have in that size seems small in the cups already Stick out tongue.  the size chart says a M is 32-36, C-D; a L is 36-40, C-DD. 

anyone have these?  which should I get?

also can't decide on the color...black, white, or gray?  i'll most likely wear it under things, since it's never warm enough in seattle to wear just a tank top.

Re: help me pick a glamourmom tank?

  • In my opinion, they run smaller than the other nursing tops I have (Medela, Bravado). I usually wear XS/S tops and I squeeze into a S now... it was MUCH more of a squeeze a few months ago. I would probably go with the L. All my nursing tops are black -- easy to be "dressed up" a little. Haha

  • I don't have any experience with glamourmom tanks, but I personally avoid white just because it's generally more see-through of a color and if it got dirty, it won't show up as much. I have two black tanks (one Gap, one Target), one navy (Target) and one plum (Target). I *love* the Target ones (they're currently on sale too)--I have the long nursing tanks. The Gap one is too big around the middle (but it was only $5), so I'm gonna alter it this weekend with my sewing machine =P

  • Actually, I wore my white Bravado nursing tank ALL THE TIME!! It just goes with a lot and can be easily paired under zip-ups, cardigans, or worn with any color pants or skirt.

    And, actually, I didn't like Glamourmom at all... Too tight... And the size up was too big. My friend loved them, but I didn't.

    I had several Bravado's that I wore constantly: Black, Brown, Plum, Turquoise and White. 

    Now that I'm almost done nursing... What will I wear? Ack!

  • yeah, i was thinking white, b/c i'm only ever going to wear it under stuff - seattle is too cold Stick out tongue  i pretty much live in jackets, even at home, unless it's a "hot" summer day (ie, over 75). 

    but I ended up getting the black in L - thanks ladies!  i'm sure i'll have a bunch of colors by the time i'm done buying them Smile  malia, i got the "transition" tank which is supposed to be looser in the tummy area?  we'll see - i have a friend who really likes them too, so i figured i'd give it a shot since it's on sale (but the $6 shipping was a boo).

    I do want to try the bravado (every raves about them) and target ones (not everyone loves them, but some people do, and they're too cheap not to try!) too.  maybe I will go (back) to target today (i already went the last 2 days!  but yesterday was just to return something), and see if they're on sale!  the maternity section at my local target is really teeny tiny and disorganized though Stick out tongue

    Oh yeah, I went to several Targets in person and never found good nursing tanks there. They have the normal ones but it's hard to find the long ones (which I love b/c they're long...I haven't tried the normal ones, so I can't say much about it...and I also only got full sling cuz I heard the side sling ones have no support). I ordered mine online. And you get free shipping with $50 (if you don't like it, you can just return it all in your local Target, so there's nothing to lose except a possible trip to Target) and there's a $5 off code that expires today: TCW1BE01

    You know, now that I think about it, maybe Malia is right. I can see how white would be nice. I think I've just been afraid to try it in case it's more see-through than I'd like, but I haven't even tried it so I really don't know =P so don't pay attention to me...
