Didn't fit

Fits worse than the pink, but is both more comfy and prettier!

  • I follow your blog with great interest, Staaldrigstill. The front and 3/4 view shots are very helpful. I would love to see side shots, too. The view from the side, turned 90 degrees away from the camera, often reveals shape problems not visible in front or 3/4 views. That's the view that helps me decide on a bra the most.

  • learningaboutbras I'm so happy to hear from a reader! I don't have many of those shoes because i have to be in a very awkward position to take them, but I'll definately try to snap some for upcoming posts. Thanks a lot for the advice, I very much appreciate it. Is there anything else you'd like to see on the blog?

  • I understand it's hard to take 90-degree angle shots. There are tools to set up your phone and use a remote control to get difficult shots, but those cost money.

    If you get matching panties, I'd like to see front and back views, even if you're not wearing them. Maybe measurements would help, too.

    It's hard to find pictures of the back. Figleaves and Nordstrom are pretty good about showing the back, but even they sometimes don't get a good shot. I have wasted a lot of money shipping back panties that were too low cut or too roomy or not flattering in the back. Now I know never to buy Cleo panties. Most Ewa Michalak panties I can't wear. I'm still learning which other ones work.

    Oh, it was really funny when you wore that pushup bra and you said your classmate didn't learn a lot about ancient Roman architecture that day! LOL!!!

  • Acctually my phone doesn't have a camera haha. I have one of those old things with buttons and I've had it for five (soon six) years, it's bathed three times and I've dropped it contlessly. I always thought why should I replace it if it ain't broke, but it just never brakes! (I'm also terrified that this day will come because these new phones cost a fortune!). Sorry for the off topic. I'll try my best to get some side shots, and if all else fails I'll ask my SO to take them for me :)

    I never thought of that knicker aspect. I have some sets coming up, but have only photographed the back if they were extra pretty, but now I'll have a reason to do it otherwise, thank you!

    Haha, I felt a bit bad for the boy. I've never really considered the fact that other people would be affected by what I wear. Maybe school uniforms could serve a purpose after all?

  • I think this bra looks good on you. I can't see anything that looks too big. I only see it looking a little small in the cups. You could wear a 28G in this bra, because I see it cutting in on top of your cups, but I don't see any gaping at all.

  • Did you like the 28FF pink version of the Marcie?

  • Nayanya It's mostly prominent when I move. The pink fit me much better.
