Ok everyone...here’s the Free to Be Elevated in the size 8. I initially tried it on in the 10, and the cups were good but the band was too loose. Then I tried a 6 after I had had some luck with that size in other styles. The 6 was definitely compressing and it cut into my tissue some. If I was going to be bouncing around, it might have been ok, but for my low impact Pilates sessions, I need to be comfortable and somewhat supported. I do do some roll downs so I do need to not spill out either but, a bra like this would probably be under a shirt anyway.

So here’s the in between size. I’ve sort of been between the 6 and 8 in most of the styles. I’m a 30FF though occasionally size down to a 30F if it’s a taller style or something for fot breasts, as mine are quite soft and squishy, even with a tendency to fob, and average height roots that are shallow. So I’m functionally fob with short roots.

This one seems to be a good size. It is slightly looser in the band but it did not feel like it was riding up or my boobs were escaping from the bottom either. It was probably a bit more relaxed. The coverage of this is a little bit higher than most of the non high neck styles yet it’s definitely got a little bit of strap details at the back. Not as flourishing as the Free To Be Serene and slightly more embellished than the Energy. Unlike the Energy bra, this one does also have some side seams for shape as well. The band seems slightly thicker and longer as well..it’s not longline length but does feel a bit firmer than the Serene. I feel like it is a hybrid of the two styles.

I’ve ordered the Free To Be Serene longline from a location in Vancouver to be shipped to me. It’s a size 6, but it’s a stretchier material. I did try it a few weeks ago but had wanted to try the 8, but then nobody had it so I’m going to try the 6 again. Once the files are fixed here, I will upload pics. If it’s not going to work, this one is a strong possible option.

  Please ignore the giant bruise on my arm. I’ve had it for a week. Dunno how I got it...I just bruise easily. Always have, even as a kid (teachers got concerned in elementary school and had my parents investigated, though nothing was wrong...my parents are/were absolutely amazing).

  Wow seriously, they had your parents investigated? Better safe than sorry I suppose but that must have been a weird experience.

  I know the feeling 100%, I bruise easily too.
  What can I say, quite fair skinned, sensitive and not the best circulation?

  Always have that (lame, IMO) Natasha Bedingfield song in my head whenever someone mentions this hahaha.

  Yeah, my parents were freaked out but, like you said, the teachers were just looking out for me and other students. My dad bruised easily too, and I am sure I get it from his side of the family. I’m also hyper mobile and it’s quite common for us to bruise and not be aware of it.
