Jeans. Pedicures. Bras. All things that have become optional, verging on unnecessary during the pandemic. But if you’re hunting for a bra that you can wear all-day, try a smooth bralette. No underwire. No lace. Just comfort and support.

There are two kinds of people in this world: People who eat cake on their birthdays and people who don’t. And some of the weirdos in the latter category (I said what I said) eat pie as an alternative. So if you’re a “birthday pie” eater with a late summer celebration coming up, may I […]
After Sloane was born, I developed a seething hatred for underwire bras. The trouble was that I had also developed a larger, slightly droopier bust. It was a cruel irony.
Our tween and teen nieces spent the first half of 2023 reviving our high school fashions. From peasant tops to low rises, I felt like I was back bopping to N’SYNC in my mint-green sedan for a minute. Now, our 20-something direct reports are bringing back the 2010s in a big way, and I am […]

For the past few years, the wardrobes of many influencers have tilted toward the beige and boring. I’m all for a good basic, but staple pieces can only take you so far. Sometimes, you need to wear something that has a little something extra, and this sale-priced tee certainly does.
I haven’t been particularly impressed with the support of the Cosabella busty bralettes, but then, I don’t fall neatly into any of their sizes. However, I have been absolutely living in Sugar Candy bras all quarantine and would recommend them to anyone with a fuller bust.

Fixed. Thanks for flagging.
I especially like bralettes for size fluctuation, I don’t want to buy a bunch of new underwires that I don’t want to wear anyway, but a couple of bralettes that will fit now and later are great.
I really liked the Sloggi at first, but after a few washes (delicate, on cold, line dry) it has really lost its shape and is all saggy on the sides. Not sure if anyone else has experienced that.
I bought a few of the Free Press house brand (I think) bralettes from Nordstrom’s Rack at the beginning of the pandemic, and have loved them. I don’t need a lot of support so can’t speak to that. Way more comfortable than a regular bra, with or without wire. I don’t know what I’m going to do when I have to go back to the office – it’ll be like I’m a teenager again and have to learn to deal with the discomfort of wearing a bra all of the time. (Minus the self consciousness.)
After an extensive search, I’m super happy with the Harper Wilde Bliss bralette. Very soft and comfortable but a nice amount of support – and I’m pretty busty. I’m even content to wear it out of the house under t-shirts, which I can’t say for my other bralettes, including True&Co.
