Thanks, I realized this week that I need more solid color bras. laugh out loud I wore a coral tank, with the see through coral top. The only bra I had left that was even close to acceptable was nude with black lace. It looked like I had a big, black butterfly under my top. Embarrassment
Oh my laugh out loud Yeah- the prints are nice, but clothes are so thin these days, the stripes, flowers, dots, you name it peek out through the threads Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) I just picked up some of the super bright solid colors, but I bet these hues will manage to peek through too. It's a bummer when I pack for traveling, I know the boring solid bras are coming with. Anywho, hope the weather clears up for your niece and that she gets lots of pictures to remember what a great time she had with her aunt!

Quote from GoHeels :
Thanks for asking. : hug: She's having a great time. Unfortunately, it has poured the rain most of the time, since she's been here. I told her it was raining, because it was her first trip & that would help make the lines shorter. ; ) It's very unusual for us to have this much rain though. I'm hoping it will clear up for the weekend & beginning of next week, so I can show her Tampa & the Gulf beaches.
I can't get over all this rain! It's been a week now. Poor DD had to do Universal in the rain, at least it wasn't hot! I hope it clears up for you so you can show your niece the beautiful beaches here. Surf

does anyone think that bra bands that are made of lace are flimsier? i think so, and i'm having 2nd thoughts on keeping some of the pretty bras because of this. any opinions?

I don't really think they're flimsier, but the lace bands do stretch out quicker than fabric bands. They might snag easier but I wash all my Dream Angels in bra bags and most of them hold up pretty well. Still wearing some from 2-3 years ago. I say go ahead and keep the pretty ones! Wink

I haven't try the Tee dress but I remember PordaPoddy said she loves it. Here's her review:
Quote from PordaPoddy :
Me too, I hardly wear dresses. I'll even put them on and think "nah, too much of a fuss for today" Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) . I think it's mostly the strapless issue... but I love the Tee Dress . [victoriassecret.com] I have one and I try to wear it a lot- it's basically a long T-shirt, so it's stupidly overpriced. It glances off the chest, hips, and butt without feeling too form fitting. It's also got a nice length (I'm 5'6" and it's longer on me than it is on the model).

My aunt is coming to stay with us next week... How am I going to hide all the deliveries coming??? EEK! I'll have to keep her out all day and race ahead of her whenever we come home laugh out loud

You're so naughty! Smack I have the black fireworks one from last fall and it has beads glued on it. To wear it I will have to buy more cable-knit sweaters or something Laugh

I think the lace sided ones hold up fine. The all-over lace DA bras of mine begin to pill, but that is the only difference I see.

I'm a bit curvy, and it skims them not hugs. If you're not curvy at all, it might not do much for you. Also, I cannot speak to the opaqueness of the lighter colors, I only own black and a dark print.
