Orange leopard print. How fun is that!?

This was another bra that nearly made me cry the first day I tried to wear it. It's apparently known for having stupidly wide straps, and I concur. It also doesn't have the curvy back strap placement like other Cleo and Panache bras that I've had.

However, the wires fit snug under my breasts and make them feel locked-in and secure. I like the coverage of molded cups. I convinced myself that the wee bit of quad-boob on my larger side wasn't really that bad. (I can also agree that this may run small in the cups compared to others models of its brand.) And I didn't quite want to die from the tight band and digging-in straps on my second go-round wearing it.

Here, again, I have problems with the edge of the cups under my arm. It seems to be a little too wide and a little too high, and I get some gaping in the cups in that area where I'm not filling them. However, unlike the Panache branded 28Hs that I have, I don't feel like the extra width in the wires is as egregious under my arms; with the others, I have cup material laying flat against my ribs beyond the breast tissue and that is not the case with this bra.

I'm hoping as it continues to soften that the issue under my arms will lessen. Or maybe this bra will get me to look into strap-altering DIY instructions. Orange leopard print!!
