BP/W or Zeagle Zena.

The Zena is awesome. My wife loves hers. It's very minimal...not a lot of silly pockets, cummerbunds, foam padding, etc. It's very clean on the front...all lift is in the back. Integrated weights with weight pockets by the tank in the back for trim. You can buy different size parts to get a custom fit for you. Definitely the best women's BC I have seen and it's a Zeagle to boot.
 
You know what your name means, don't you? :) Just kidding. I'll see what kind of equipment my local shop has. I'm really interested in trying on a SeaQuest Diva to see what this "sportsbra" thing is all about. I'm a poor college student on a budget, so my choices are somewhat limited :) but I really appreciate everyone's input.
 
If you feel confident in your search, try ebay. I know, I know you don't what you may be getting, but there is some good stuff there if you take the time to look and know what you are looking for....
 
My wife has the Seaquest DIVA LX and of the 6-8 she tried in the water it was the one. If a gal is well endowed the "sports bra" feature really hugs nice and keep it from riding up. Padding is of nice soft rubbery materials so it must be comfortable for swimsuit dives too. The plush design does want to hold a little air in the padding for a moment so getting it wet for a few minutes before descent helps. It's really most noticable in the rinse barrel.

My wife is 5'-4" and loves her XS Dive Rite TransPac II which I found on eBay with wing for about $100. The resale market in pre-owned scuba gear in XS and S sizes is limited, so it can pay for the petite to take some time to watch for bargains there.
