Hello ladies!
Just discovered the Aerie intimates line (American Eagle)!
Went shopping at Marshall's last nite and they had 3 "Sasha" 32A bras on clearance!
2 of them for $6.50 each and 1 for $5!!
They fit very well, just the right amount of "push" and so comfortable!

<span>[url]<a href="http://www.ae.com/aerie/index.jsp[/url]" class="smarterwiki-linkify">http://www.ae.com/aerie/index.jsp[/url]</a></span>

Their bras start at 32AA.
At first it looks like they may cater only to high schoolers (and younger), but I found their bras to be beautiful, feminine and sexy. Reasonable pricing.

Has anyone ever tried this line?

I have, but Aerie bras tend to run very big, at least in my experience. I compared my roommate's Aerie 32A to myLa Senza lace pushup in 32A (which I've mentioned before - Fits like a TLBC 30A!), and the difference was astounding. The Aerie bra looked at least 3 cup sizes bigger, and the band was way larger as well.

In addition, the Aerie bras always have very molded cups - There's always a huge gap when I wear them. I tried on their "Ella" (double push up), and it looked like a bra on a plank, even with a 32AA.

One thing I do like about Aerie is the cup placement though - They seem closer together than most other bras. It's a shame they don't fit me, because they're always so cute! :(

I tried on the aerie bras last weekend after petitelady posted about them - thank you!!! The Paige cotton pushups are exactly what I've been looking for in a size 32aa bra. The others were either ridiculously padded (gel and air bras) or were stiff in fabric. The cotton ones had just the right amount of padding for some cleavage and the fabric molded to my figure the best. The store didn't honor the 20% off online coupon that I found, so I ordered them online at $15 each! Thank you again, petitelady! They are my favorite bras now!

LaLaaLove - Aw, I'm sorry it didn't work out for you. I actually visited AE recently to browse their Aerie intimates line and was sorely disappointed. They did not have the “sasha” line I was raving about – I wonder if it has been discontinued (boo). I might try the other push-ups next time I visit, but the gel/air bras turned me off. :?

Chipmunk – YAY! So glad they worked out for you! :D I agree with the ridiculous gel/air bras; they make you look so fake. Well, at least I cannot pull them off. ;) But major kudos to the ladies who can. That's why I love that “sasha” line; it gave just enough oomph and molded well to my petite figure, so it naturally boosted (ahem) my natural assets. :lol:

Another FYI: I found 3 Calvin Klein push up bras at Marshall’s and TJMaxx that fit very well, too! The pricing was peanuts compared to the mall’s pricing. Be on the lookout for bras when you visit these places!
