Took a shot in the dark on an unknown bra in my desperate search for a workable unlined nude bra. Didn't turn out that bad! Could be slightly more immediately projected, but I say that about almost everything. It's fairly narrow, good for FOB shapes, and not totally ugly! So I suppose I consider it a win.

Good afternoon! I have a review I’m excited to share today. For those keeping

I got this and the BM Fluo as a part exchange for my SM Tattoo, and after that fiasco I was a little nervous to try another SM. But given how my kusidelko fit prior to losing sizes in 2016, and it was all mesh like this one instead of the embroidered lace of Tattoo, I decided to give it a go again cause the girly pink appeal of Roza is irresistible.

I tried on jlc’s 65F Roza prior to ordering this & surprisingly found it too tight in both the band and cup. Ewas bands are killing me lately, with such inconsistency I’ve decided to go with ... 70s in all future orders from her even though I should in no way *need* a 70 band - I can handle loose better than too tight. At the last minute I changed this order to a 70F... and this is what I got. This band is loose (go figure) and the cups are about 1/2 cup too big, especially on my smaller side and even more so when I’m not PMS-ing. I’m starting to think it was the too tight band on the 65 making the cups feel too small. I ordered a 70E in the Ja Wiem during the BF sale, so I guess I’ll find out.

I’m happy to report the shape is not pointy though, it’s the rounded and somewhat minimized SM shape I remembered. This bra is a workhorse under my scrubs and when I’m PMS-ing. The wires are a bit wide in this size but otherwise I don’t have much complaints. It is comfortable & the lace & satin trim speaks to my inner girly girl.

What's not to love?? Simple yet sexy, good room at the wire, narrow but not SO narrow it shoves everything out in front a la Cleo. Really, a lovely shape. I'm hooked. I want more.

Good morning! The SM Kusidelko is a very sexy, unlined, nude and black illusion

I guess I could review this since I've had it a year now lol. I've been so slow with reviews. I wish Ewa still made this cut. It feels like an S/PL hybrid - mostly S, but with a lower gore like PL which is basically the best of both worlds for me. I like the simplistic navy design without the enormous bows, lace, sparkles, etc... a lot of Ewa's recent bras are all starting to look the same, in various shades of dark with lace or beige with lace (although that didn't stop me from buying 3 of them during her last new ... release sale haha). There's not a lot to say about this bra that hasn't already been said about most Ewa bras - it's narrow, good immediate projection, nice lift, rounded shape with a subtle peak. Classic Ewa. The cups are somewhat closed off, more so than a CHP. I'm at least the second owner - worth noting this bra has been worn regularly now for likely several years and is showing very few signs of wear. This is definitely a projected, centered profile, good for taking the girls out on the town, not good if you're trying to avoid the boob tent look under flowy shirts. I like it. I wear it a lot, sans cookies as always.

Madagascar is supposedly based on the Bardot, but more open on top and less depth at the underwire IMO. Best for short roots needing decent projection. Band is true to size. Material isn't super soft but isn't scratchy either. Thankfully the animal print is understated as it's not really "my thing" but I snagged it on Zulily for cheap and it's a really good cup shape for me. Full review on the blog!

Today I'm reviewing Curvy Kate Madagascar in

I adore this bra. I'm not sure how else to put it haha. It's the best fitting Comexim I own. The band is definitely stretchier than others in this size. I could put it on the middle hooks but I'm trying to stick with the loosest as long as possible.

The website pictures don't do this pattern justice. It's much cuter in person. I love the contrasting bow, the plaid, the navy. It's so soft and comfortable. I wore it all day yesterday with no problems. The gore definitely tacks, in contrast to my Poison Ivy. I feel like it keeps everything where it belongs. The wire width is perfectly narrow and the cups are the lovely, projected but uplifting, rounded cups Comexim is known for. Zero complaints from me.

Am I really the first one to review this top?? Welp ladies, I've done it. I've found a bandeau swim top I can actually wear. I've always liked the bandeau bikini top look, when worn correctly, but it's really hard to pull off. To buy any old Target bandeau, you basically have to possess either no boobs, or boobs of steel that hold themselves up, walk on their own two feet, and answer your phone calls for you while you're busy downing that margarita at the tiki bar. Since I do have boobs, I've never had luck with unstructured bandeaus, although I've ... tried on more than my share.... which gave me a really sad looking, squashed together uniboob shelf. Not a good look for me.

I'm on a roll trying swimwear lately, and I ordered this preppy little polka dotted number because it was on Amazon Prime and why the hell not, I needed a good laugh. I totally expected to return it.... but now I'm apologizing to my bank account for the $38 that is, in fact, not coming back.

It's available in 3 colors but I picked black and white because I'm not very adventurous and it matches everything. Plus, the black and white colorway has this white trim at the top with a cute 2 button detail on the gore and I thought it gave it almost a nautical flair. I should be wearing this on my yacht, paired with fancy boat shoes, but I'm not a millionaire so the lake will have to do.

This is the best swim top I've found yet. In fact, it's better than any strapless bra I've found thus far, so under dark shirts it might pull double duty. It feels really sturdy without being overly padded, and looks and feels like it's very well made - this wasn't thrown together in a hurry. It's a two part cup design with one vertical seam, but the white trim on the black colorway makes it look like a 3 part cup. It's not overly shallow (but it's no Comexim either) and even the wires aren't horrifically wide at 5.5. The depth is only 9" and on paper it shouldn't fit me and in the database it says it doesn't, but somehow I'm not falling out of it and it more than exceeds my low standards for a bikini top. I haven't taken it swimming yet, so I might change my mind, but right now I feel pretty smokin' in this thing. The cups aren't tall - one of the reviews on Amazon mentioned muffin-boob, and I could totally see that happening on FOT or tall-rooted ladies. With my short roots, it works pretty well. Even better - Panache designed the outermost layer of fabric to lay in a way such that it hides all of the wires, so it doesn't look like a strapless bra!

Band is pretty TTS, if not a half inch tight or so - which is really good for me. It comes with detachable straps that can be worn normally or cross back, but they're a little too short for me to wear cross back, and I like the bandeau look better anyays. I have really low set boobies, so I doubt this is a problem for many other women.

Bottom line - most likely fantastic for average width, average projection, FOB and/or short roots. I am narrow rooted, extremely projected, evenly full with short roots and if you're like me, it's still worth a shot.

In my blog review I break down this bra (the white colorway), the black bra in 28F, and the latte bra in 28F. I review all three at the same time. It's a great shape for narrow and short roots that need projection! This has quickly become my favorite unlined bra. Full details on the blog!

My first EM. Fabulous job shipping so quickly, immodestmouse. Thanks!!

It's altered to a 55GG, so the band is a bit too tight (as expected) and the straps are a little too wide set (kind of expected). Otherwise, I like it!

Edit to add - I have moved the straps in about 2cm on the front side only, since writing my original review. I plan on updating m blog sometime before I die to show how I did the alteration. It much improved the lift I get from this bra and added a degree of cakes cleavage that comes in handy sometimes!

Today I'm changing brands! I've discovered a new half cup style, and I really l

I'm aware this is quite the highly sought after bikini. It was sent as a replacement to the Orange one they ran out of fabric for. Typically quality Comexim fit. Lovely pattern, if you're into that kind of thing. The band is super tight and the cups feel smaller than my Pin Up Girl. The bottoms fit great right out of the bag. I feel like a weirdo, because this pattern is just not my style... I suspect I'm in a small minority here. Full review on the blog.
