Today, I am here to talk about uniboob… how much of a disservice it is to us and how it has been for too long. It’s so not flattering to our figures and we should celebrate those figures even while working out, of course. A local Oregon company is doing an amazing job at fighting uniboob with super cute, comfortable, flattering sports bras (they are comfy enough for all-day wear!) I got one at Barre3 not long ago and wound up loving it so much that I wanted to try another style. Essentially, I’m hooked. Check it out.
The Deets:
The reasons I love these bras (and so do many of my Barre3 friends, by the way) is that they are flattering and so so comfortable. I can seriously wear one all day and they’re even comfy enough to sleep in. The adjustable strap version is my favorite for that, especially if I’m traveling and staying at someone’s house and don’t want to stroll into breakfast braless. (Those were the days, but alas, no more.) I just saw too that they have a Love Your Shelf tank with shelf bra that would be great for loungewear/PJs. I’d love to try it.
The bras are substantial yet so soft and have a padded insert for a little lift (or you can remove it and it’s still flattering). The bottom band on each is nice and sturdy and doesn’t roll up or slide up while moving.
They’re sized XS – L and seem to be true-to-size with your t-shirt size. I’m wearing a Small in both styles here and I’m a Small in tops and 32DD, for reference. They are a little tight when you’re putting them on but not uncomfortably, need-help sort of tight.
Another bonus reason I love these is that the padded inserts are actually easy to remove and replace. I know! It’s like a woman designed these or something. No more spending half your life reinserting the cup liners while thinking about all you’re missing out on.
Outfit Details
Handful Bras Y Back Camo Bra – This is my favorite of the two for stability and it just looks cool. The wide straps are so so comfy and again the fit is just so flattering. Sizing is XS – L. Wearing a Small. I was concerned about the straps not being adjustable and having a somewhat shorter torso, but they are great and fit well and would stretch to accommodate a taller torso. This style comes in a few solid colors in addition to the camo print.
Handful Bras Adjustable Turquoise Bra – This one has adjustable straps that work in a crossback style or straight. It comes in a ton of gorgeous colors, too. I plan to wear mine this summer with my open-back tanks and dresses. I can even sleep in this one and I never sleep in bras. Sizing is XS – L, too. I’m wearing a Small.
Spiritual Gangster Tank – This tank is insanely soft, gorgeous and high quality. I love the longer length for wearing before and after my workout and not having to sport around town with leggings trying to pass as pants. Wearing a Small.
Beyond Yoga Above the Curve Pants – I have a couple pairs of Beyond Yoga pants and they are by far the most comfy I own. These are the full length and mid-rise, but I also love my high-waist capris so much. I’m dying over these high waist gloss/mesh stripe leggings, too. Omg. And they’re on sale (also M & L on sale here.) Wearing a Small above, for reference.
If you have checked these bras out or wind up trying them I’d love to hear what you think!
To no more uniboob!
