This bra is nothing fancy, and I like it.
I have recently put on weight (I'm both currently unemployed and not the most active person) and as always, I needed a brand new bra to put me out of my quadboob misery. Cleo is my n°1 favorite brand, because it's the only one that gives me both good support, good shape and relative comfort (I mean: as much as a casual bra can be comfortable - not counting my other favorite sports bra by Panache) and not too much strap sliding because they didn't put them too far apart like other brands do (I'm looking at you Curvy Kate!).

I ... found this model online for a very attractive price, and the different fabric texture is a nice change from the normal smooth nylon-like one.
The rest is as usual for a Cleo bra: it gives round shape, high-ish breasts, good support throughout the day (but some slight band chafing because I'm between sizes and don't know yet if I should close it at the 2nd or 3d hook), the fabric breaths well and is not irritating.

I like that they didn't go crazy with neon colors or patterns with this one, despite the still bright coral color. Someday maybe they'll make a bra in neutral colors for youngsters ? Maybe it's because I'm much closer to my thirties than my twenties that I feel the need for tamer (more tame?) lingerie https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />

That's it for the Blake !

I find that this bra runs small in the cup, and the measurements agree - more like a 30H than the 30HH it is supposed to be. It's a shame because I like the colour and the wires are narrow enough, but I get slight quadding even on my smaller side and LOTS of quadding on the larger side.
