As my previous two experiences with Curvy Kate weren't successful, I was doubtful whether the Smoothie would be an improvement. The Angel and the Emily don't work at all on me, the former looks droopy (and comes too high under the arms) and the Emily was scratchy, droopy and the cups huge.
But, but. Third time's the magic! The Smoothie will certainly become my new favourite (and yeah, I intend to wear it a lot https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":D" /> ), as it
- gives a great, uplifted, upfront shape - think "perky"
- looks quite delicate (no mean feat in J cup)
- is incredibly comfortable both in cups and band
- has a sturdy, non-stretchy band
- is the kind of no-nonsense go-to bra every girl needs.
I've set the fit after my bigger boob. The smaller one leaves a little empty room at the top-and-center of the cup, so it gapes a tiny bit next to the center gore.

At the moment I can't give you any cons as it's obviously a well-made bra. The only things that may cause problems to some are that
- the straps are placed quite wide apart. I don't have a problem with that as I have wide shoulders.
- the straps are curiously thin (not narrow!) compared to for example many Ewa Michalaks and GG-K cup Freyas. They don't feel stretchy, so maybe it's just a feeling of mine best left ignored.

Edit: I'm wondering if I've gotten some sort of an unfortunate specimen of this bra as the band suddenly feels a lot bigger after some five washes, more like a 32 band.
