My experiments in Chantelle have been interesting and enlightening. I find that I am somewhere in between their F and E cups right now (some day my weight will stop fluctuating, but today is not that day.)

In the C chic style, I could maybe go down to the E, due to the fact that there is some empty space on the sides of the cup and there is a little bit of an armpit-cutoff going on (very minor, enough to note but not enough to ruin my experience with the bra) However, having tried on the plunge in an E on a fuller day, I noted that it can cause some mild quad-boobing. Maybe I ought to have one of each depending on what sort of day my boobs are having. I really like the shape that this bra gives, it's nicely rounded from the side.

Style-wise, this is a pretty straight-forward quality bra. It has the same subtle embroidered pattern as the other C chic bras, sexy mesh at the top of the cups, and a little jeweled detail on the center gore. It seems good for day-to-day use, although I wish I'd nabbed it in a different color since I already have a black mesh bra which fulfills this niche (my beloved Claudette Paramour Underwire Bra (101015008) ) but I suppose it's good to have multiples. I kind of wish the gore were a little higher? I just feel like it doesn't need to be that low, but I guess "plunging" is serious business. I generally don't care about gores one way or another because I have wide-set boobs and never have any issues with them. I guess I would just feel more secure.

This bra is not owned any more
