PARFAIT AFFINITAS ~ Charlotte in Red . 28E

I've had my eye on the Charlotte for a long time and Parfait releasing it in a 28-inch band was what decided me to buy it. It's widely acknowledged that the "old" version of the bra ran very small in both band and cup but feedback on the "new" version is less widely available. The general concensus seemed to be that it ran truer to size so I crossed my fingers and ordered a 28E.

BEAUJAIS ~ Sweet Nothings in Teal . 28E

I first heard of British luxury brand Beaujeais on the wonderful blog of Miss Underpinnings last summer. I really fell in love with their Sweet Nothings line but at £95 the bra and £49 the bottoms, there was no way I would ever place an order. I just couldn't justify spending that much money on a lingerie set when I had a whole collection to build.

But  shortly before Christmas, I saw that they had the Sweet Nothings on sale for £30 in a 28E. I couldn't believe my luck. First positive effect of having lost a cup-size. The panties were still at £49 so that rounded things up to £79 for the set. But what the heck, Christmas only comes once a year. I decided to treat myself. With very mixed results.

Boob Shrinkage

 

2013 was a big year for me for many reasons. One of them is weight loss. I'd decided to take myself in hand and now, a year later, I'm happy to say I've reached my goal and more.

But that "more" is wreaking havoc on my bra collection!
