Ogh...I feel your pain. I HATE bra shopping. It's gotten way worse since a friend suggested I was "doing it all wrong". Like you, I would dash into the store and buy several more of the one(s) I liked best. Seemed to work.
Then I'm regaled with tales of how your body changes pretty much every six months, and your bra fit might (probably) does the same. Even though I've lost a mere 6 pounds in the last year, I decided (for the sake of peace and tranquility with my friend) that I would try it her way. I went to *insert name of major department store with a HUGE lingerie department* and had a "fitting" with the resident expert. HOLY COW! What a difference. The expert reiterated everything my friend had said, and I gotta tell you, I think they're right. She had me try on a few bras I never would have selected, and it was a world of difference in both comfort and looks.
It was relatively hateful, but, in hindsight, I'm really happy I did it. I'm not being poked by anything, no shoulder strain (I'm a 36 DD...and no, no implanted bits), and the girls look all happy and perky.
