I am looking for some more cute colorful lace bras to add to my lingerie collection, with or without an underwire. I really like (and have) one of these:
I am looking for something that looks similar but that maybe is a bit more comfortable. While I love the look of it, after wearing it a few hours it starts to itch. Even if I wanted to get more of these, they are hard to find so I need to find a replacement. Any suggestions?
I know they exist b/c I've seen them a lot recently on TV (Rescue Me, to be specific).
BTW I am anti-victoria's secret.
Thanks in advance!!
UPDATE: ha! i found the exact bra i saw on rescue me, which caused me to look in the first place. i love it and put it on my christmas wish list. so cute (it's by hanky panky)!
uggh - won't let me copy. here's the link in case anyone cares:
Have you looked at Figleaves? They have such a selection I'm sure they have something like that. Also, UO, Anthro, and AE have some lacey non-underwires that I find pretty comfortable.

Hmmm how do you wash your bras now? I think a lot of times bras that itch when I first get them get better after a few handwashes with a good lingerie detergent (I like Forever New the best myself)
I second the figleaves suggestion, they have a review feature so you can read if other people have had a problem with itching before.
I have a lace bra from Just Peachy that I really like, and it has really held up well - it's still going strong after a lot of my more expensive bras have bitten the dust!
thanks, girls! I am checking out figleaves, anthro, UO, and I forgot that I saw some good ones at free people once. Kelly, i wash my bras with everything else in the washer - maybe that's my problem! thanks for the tip about the lingerie wash!
FWIW, I have seen bras similar to the one you posted at Forever 21 and H&M. For a nicer brand that makes a lot of lace bras without padding (though I haven't seen any with the band at the bottom, like the one you posted) you might check out Huit. They carry a few at Nordstrom and Bluefly, and Nancy Meyer (online) has a lot.
