I have this bra in about five different colours, because at the time, it was the best-fitting bra I could find.
It's the classic bra issue: the band is too big and rides up, the cups are too small, and it gives slight quad-boob. The fit is close, but not completely correct. I went from these to a Freya Patsy Padded Half Cup Bra (1223)](model:9479) in 30FF, and the Freya fits much better.
If this bra fits properly, it's a nice bra. It's a moulded-cup, so it holds its shape very well and prevents nipple show-through. It has a teeny-tiny bit of padding to provide a bit of ... lift to the bust, but not a ridiculous amount. The fabric is soft and comes in many colours, and even has matching undies, if you're the sort who likes matching undies. The undies, however, are made of the same polyester material that is on the external part of the bra, and it doesn't breathe. I bought one pair because it was so darn pretty, but the fabric makes them uncomfortable. The shape is comfy, though!
The straps are too thin for my liking; they dig into my shoulders, but this is in part because of the too-large band. The straps had to compensate for it.
The circle of shiny things glued onto the front is VERY tough. They don't come off, even with years of wear and washing!
All in all, if it fits properly, it's a cute t-shirt bra, but it's not the bra for me.
