I have been wearing the Honeydew Camellia bralette for years, but I don't think I've tried any of their bras, since the only one I've seen in stores has been the padded push up version of this bra. I decided to order it to try.
Honestly, I was pretty surprised. This is a very comfortable bra and the band runs TTS. It is one of the very few department store bras that has a snug 30 band, although it is on the flimsy side and will probably stretch out. The cups also seem to run true to size and fit me really well.
The outside of ... the cups are the same camellia lace as the bralette, and the bra has similar twinned straps as well. The straps were a problem for me as they actually did not adjust short enough on me, as the adjustable portion is quite short. I am 5'1" with a normal torso proportion, so I don't think this will work on anyone petite or even just short.
Now, I could've sewn the straps shorter myself, but I couldn't get past the peached microfiber used as the cup lining. This texture makes my skin crawl, and while I didn't notice any discomfort while wearing the bra, it really creeps me out to handle it. Unfortunately for those two reasons I will not be keeping this bra. However, I am pleased to find that it is a nice snug TTS fit in 30D.
