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.

This week, I fell mindlessly into my phone more than I think I ever have. My screen time went from 3.5 hours per day to 5 hours per day. But the increased eye strain did lead to some good finds. Just going to leave this right here. (I really need to work on “Didn’t make […]
For eight years, I have worn the same workout shorts. Every year, an influencer tries to sell me new shorts. I order them. I try them on. They pale in comparison to the shorts I already own. I return them.
Have a big day ahead? Major hearing? Big trial? The presentation of your life? Gonna be at a conference with that ex? Whatever it happens to be, these are the fashion weapons that get me to the confidence level that I need to be at.

Without question, the most worn item in my wardrobe is a black-and-white striped tee. I wear it in winter under sweaters, in spring with white jeans, in summer with black shorts. I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.
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.

I am 100% intrigued and going to try these! xoxo 38H

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.
