November 2015: Haha, I guess that as I continue to find bras that fit me more and more, the more and more lazy I become about leaving a review. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_razz.gif" alt=":P" /> I mean, if it fits near perfectly, what more is there to say?!

I guess a few tiny fit issues: the wires are like a quarter of an inch too narrow and/or a bit too stiff. When I first pull the wires back as I swoop and scoop, it fits perfectly, but the wires are very stiff and don't want to bend out of shape, so eventually they relax back to their rigid shape and sit right on the edge between my breast root and chest wall, where I'd rather have it sit right behind it. The cup depth/projection fits my left side perfectly, but for some reason, even with a cookie added to the right side, there's like an eight of an inch gap right over my apex. Maybe the cup lace/seam is just shaped a tiny bit weirdly? This bra gives me a great shape under shirts, and gives me a slightly narrower profile from the front view than the Maddie. It does a good job at pushing my wide-set tissue forward and up. If you compare my Maddie 28FF angle view and this bra's angle view, you can see I have more projection here. My side view pictures is weird, I must have been arching my back or something, because I get more side projection as well but it's hard to see that. Maddie is still my all-time favorite, mostly because slightly too-wide wires is more comfortable than slightly too narrow, but this is definitely my second favorite bra. I bought this bra on a trip to The Pencil Test in Portland, OR (if you live within a few hundred miles, go there!!! Just look at the Yelp rating and reviews!! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":D" />) because it's the only place that carries 28 bands that are reasonably priced in a billion mile radius (well and cuz the reviews.. the owner is a BOOB GODDESS) and found this on the sale rack for, like, $30-ish I think. I went there thinking I'd get the Charlotte in 28FF and ended up walking away with this instead! https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_mrgreen.gif" alt=":D" /> The fabric is very luxurious, and the color is such a rich red, I LOVE IT. My husband loves it. Win!! I've only had this bra for a little less than half a year, but I'm already on the second hook. This and the Maddie are my only fitting bras that have fit me for the last 6 months or so, so they're both quickly wearing out. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_sad.gif" alt=":(" /> My boobs need to stop growing!! (And I need to stop sitting on my as 24/7 on the computer and gaining weight, hehe, eating green only gets you so far...)

Sorry the review was a very large and unorganized block. https://d28qt14g3opchh.cloudfront.net/smileys/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" />
