Coobie Bra/FYI

I have made a new discovery that may be useful to others here. The Coobie Bra. It is one size fits all (really!) stretchy bra that is has the teeniest bit of padding which offers a suggestion of shape. The pads are removable so you could probably use different inserts for more of a silouette. It is nice for when you dont want to wear prostheses around the house but want a little something. Is cute just as a top. I wore mine swimming.(in private!) They also make a padded cami. Nice colors.
web site is shopcoobie.com


Keep the faith

Re: Coobie Bra/FYI

Just an update, have become something of a Coobie junkie. Have ordered various colors (MELON!) and just received turquoise with white polka dots. It is a fun mood booster for not much $. And they have a discount if you buy 3.
Keep the faith.
