Didn't fit

Pros: This bra is SUPER cute, and a really pretty color. It's the first bra I've had where the wires are actually wide enough to get the whole boob (instead of squeezing tissue into the armpit). I think I fill the bottom of the cup well.

Cons: The top lace half gets wrinkly (not sure if this is by design, or because I don't have enough breast tissue on top), and with the added lace design, this will be hard to wear with a tight-fitting shirt. The straps seem just a little far apart, it sometimes feels like they might slip off my shoulders, but it's never actually happened. The biggest issue is that the band is TIGHT. I think it's too tight, because it hurts my sternum at times and leaves a pretty red mark after I take it off.

Overall: This bra is definitely tighter than I would like, sometimes to a point where it is uncomfortable. I'm still going to keep it because it fits my breasts better than the rest of my bras (which doesn't say much). The wrinkled lace up top might be an issue, I may see if I can alter it by stitching the corners down.
