Used to fit
When I first saw this bra, I fell in love with it. I read one good review about it and went ahead and ordered it in what I think my normal size might be 28FF, but I'm really not sure on that.
The pattern is gorgeous, with the white, red, and navy blue combination is adorable in my opinion. The straps are fairly thin, which I'm a huuge fan of but I know many people would prefer the thicker straps. I also like the thinner, 2 hook clasp but I know many people aren't a fan of that as well.
I would not go as far to say that this is "Padded" as the name suggests. I'd call it "lightly lined"or something of that sort. The "padding" that this bra has is not going to really add anything to the size of your boobs or enhance your cleavage, but I am not a big fan of unlined bras so I really liked this aspect.
The only thing I'm having trouble with is completely hiding this bra under clothes. Being from the land of seamless moulded t-shirt bras, The seam down the center of this bra is giving me a bit of difficulty. So far the only way I've completely hidden it is under 3 cami shirts, which is a bit crazy. Of course, this is not a t-shirt bra so I should've been expecting that.
Overall, I'm a big fan of this bra because it's absolutely adorable, and fits me well!
Edit: I seem to have grown a bit and the bra now causes some quad-boob. The lace along the edges makes it so that it's not as noticeable, but at this point theres enough extra boob that I can't really wear the bra. I'm in love with the design though, so I think I may try to buy this in a 28G.
