Guided By Fate

when i wear full/circle skirts i tend to favor tighter clothing on top, not only to give balance to the look, but also add to the dainty, feminine feel. today’s choice is a new shirt i recently got: a perfectly tailored top with satin details and the sweetest little bow attached (so convenient!). on days when i wear such tight-fitting clothes i make sure i am garbed accordingly underneath — in this case a seamless bra that provides the perfect amount of support and comfort so i don’t feel constricted even with everything being so form-fitting.

avon’s “the one” bra is a true wonder. it’s the first one-size-fits-all brassiere i’ve ever encountered (literally fits sizes 32A-40D!), which made me completely skeptical AND excited to try it. at first glance it didn’t look like much, but after putting it on i knew i liked it. growing up i favored t-shirt bras as i found them a lot more versatile and wearable, and this is like THE ultimate t-shirt bra — except without underwire, hooks or strap adjusters, so nothing gets in the way.

i’ve already used it a handful of times and always with great results: under tight tops when going out or pullovers when running quick errands, and even on its own when lounging around my flat. my aunt has one, too, which she loves using when working out. seriously, it’s the coolest thing.

honestly i am always discerning with products that appear too gimmicky or promise a lot of this and that. they tend to disappoint quite a bit, so i end up steering clear of them completely. but i’m happy — nay, proud — that i didn’t pass this one up. i am totally hooked.
