Sports bras have always been a troubled spot for me. Home girl needs loads of support. As a top-heavy lady who does a lot of cardio, I am always on the hunt for a good & sturdy sports bra that will keep the girls in place while doing any number of activities- especially running.
So, after an extensive search of the world wide web & more than a few message boards on the topic- I decided on a daunting task: setting foot in the lululemon near 6th street.
It's not that I have anything personally against lulu herself, it's just I am a budget savy lady & that place be 'spensive y'all. But I had read so many great things about the sports bra called The TaTa Tamer that I just had to try it for myself. (also, what damn cute li'l name).

tata's be tamed! (please?)
So, I am not 100% what happened. I remember putting it on in the store & jumping around a bit & the associates assuring me that yes, of course this would be a great bra for running, so I left the store, $60 or so poorer, but pleased in the thought that I had made an investment that would be lasting me for years.
DISAPPOINTMENT!!!!!!!
No. No. Just... not. The next morning I get up to go for my morning run, tame my tata's, put on my shoes & go! Once I start running... oh no! Something is horribly wrong. Nothing is tamed! Not a damn thing is tamed!

Sigh. This was nearly a year ago & I am still so apprehensive on ever buying a anything besides my cheap-o Target brand bras ever again (I have like a dozen of those. I just pull them on OVER the my investment bra). At $10-$15 a pop for these at anywhere from Target to WalMart to my love, Marshalls... I feel silly paying the big bucks.
Now, let me say this- the TaTa Tamer (god, I feel silly saying that so much now.) is great for yoga! Which is LuLulemon's main market. Also, I can wear it solo to strength train or to a class where there isn't much jumping around, but for the high impact cardio--- I gotta "double bag" my boobies (god, I'm classy)
Any suggestion on how to tame your beasts? (boobs. your boobs are the beasts here)
