My Favorite Bra

Sale PSA: A pretty linen dress which I think I’ve shared before but its cheaper now, from Alexis, now $206, simple slingbacks from Madewell, now 25% off, and this gorgeous Bleu Agate VERSO (Gris Mouette inside) Lindy 26 on sale right now for $4700 from Fashionphile – ugh! I love this so much! I almost didn’t share because I want it for myself. Oh! And the coveted Gold Swift 26 Lindy, also available for $5900, not a bad price at all

Okay. Originally this was going to be another post but I recently discovered my favorite bra had been restocked and thus had to share right away.

I first discovered this bra a little more than a year ago. I ordered it on a whim (damned Uniqlo $99 minimums for free shipping) and it came and I realized – this is my perfect bra. NO hardware of any kind (underwire or clasps or anything) and you just pull it over your head. Super soft. What more could you want?? I am SUPER picky about bras and also REALLY lazy and don’t care at all about beauty, am all about comfort and function. Once I discovered this masterpiece I had planned to buy many more but then Uniqlo sold out and while at first I was not panicked because they always restock they never did!!

I was seriously depressed. I probably checked weekly for months! And then gave up, and now, more than a year later, they are back! I immediately restocked when I saw it online! But by that point it was already all sold out in black which is my preferred bra color and I was so worried and then I saw it was in stock in store at my local Uniqlo. And so I actually dragged my whole family to the mall to get it. Yes, two sulky toddlers, and a sulky husband, and I had to bribe them all with a malt chocolate milkshake but it was worth it because I got my black bras.

Just a quick shot – I’m wearing the bra here, under my shirt, and as you can see there are no lines/weird wrinkles. The material is thick enough to give good coverage but is definitely not a push-up or “padded”.

Some other notes – I’m a 32/34 A (post pregnancy – sigh) and take a size XS, which is perfect on me. If you’re a B cup I’d probably take a size small. Also, I do think this is probably a bra better suited for the less endowed – if you need a lot more support I’m not sure if this would work for you. I HOPE it would because we all should have a bra like this! Maybe worth a try if you have a store near you. But I can’t guarantee it (but please report back if you do try!).

A funny note – as of this morning there are 8 reviews on this bra from people and all five stars and a majority are like me, people who bought it before and were so upset it was gone. I consider these people competition and have thus have stocked up. And now that I am confident in my supply, I am sharing with you! I really hope this makes some of you more comfortable!

Ahh! Another note! Black XS just restocked online! This means I went to the mall for nothing!

Okay – any other bra hoarders here? Do YOU have a favorite comfortable bra? Please share!
