Christmas in a Box

Today is Christmas for me, because a box containing THREE BRAS in different shades of red arrived. My OCD self would not let me rip the box blindly, so after battling with endless masking tape, I finally get to open the box!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh (I screamed a lot today).

30FF Just Peachy Lace Non Padded Balconette Bra (dd-g) (FIG-113514), 30FF Freya Deco Honey (1254) , and 28GG Cleo Brooke (5141)!!!

Mini review.

28GG Cleo Brooke - Is it a sister cut of Lucy? Because seriously, this is Lucy (even the pattern reminds me of Lucy!), just a tad more open on top. The wires are too wide on me, the depth (considering the width) is perfect. A hint of quadboob on my bigger side, but nothing serious. Wearable. [ETA: Oops, no quadboob. I just had the straps tighten to the max. A habit I'm still trying to get rid off.]

30FF Deco Honey in Firecracker - Band is loose, a usual for Freya. As for the cups, hmmm. In my beige 28G Deco, I have a little gaping on top, but the gore tacks perfectly. In this one, I don't have gaping on top, but the gore is like 2mm away from my sternum. When I push it flat against my sternum, I spill out in the middle, giving me butt-crack cleavage (I used to like butt-crack cleavage in my 34C, but now, butt-crack cleavage in my proper size seems weird). Does this mean the cup is shallow near the gore?

30FF Just Peachy - IS THIS AN ANDORRA RIP-OFF BECAUSE SERIOUSLY, THIS IS AN ANDORRA. From the lace, to the stretchy lace on top, IT'S ANDORRA, EXCEPT! I don't get the pointy shape in this bra. The shape is more rounded compared to Andorra. AND THE WIRES ARE PERFECT. I LOVE THEE, NARROW WIRES. Gotta catch 'em all colours. The only caveat, the armhole is so small! I set the straps to the loosest setting, and the hole is like the halfway tight setting on Deco.

Big thanks to amy__rebecca for sending this Christmas in a box!
