It's always difficult for me to find clothing that fits right so I wnded up trying on practically every style in a couple different sizes. Mariah was amazing and really made me comfortable with the experience. I usually hate bra shopping, but this time it was more like she was a very knowledgable and helpful friend who was helping me shop. Overall, I was so happy about my experience and would totally...
