Remember when I shared that the BALI Intimates Team was at Getting Gorgeous again this year? Check out my recap of #GettingGorgeous HERE. The bra set that I featured in that recap post is the bra I actually selected, it's from BALI - the Bali One Smooth U Ultra Light Lift with Lace Underwire Bra - and it arrived in today's mail!
Don't you just love when you get another surprise gift well after an event?
I also selected a bra from the One Smooth U collection at Getting Gorgeous last year, so I was excited to see the upgrades made to the collection this year and was happy to find one with the pretty lace detail, the lace actually kinda looks a little bit like a butterfly doesn't it?
The material feels so much softer and silkier than last year's version and I love the lace detail and the cute little touch of bling in the center.
I thought I would share this with you guys while I work on editing and optimizing my images from the #CurveNY expo where I got to see spring/summer 2016 collections among a very wide assortment of lingerie and swimsuit designers, which I hope to have live and posted very SOON.
And make sure you don't miss next week's posts, there are TONS of goodies ahead, starting MONDAY!
Bra Tips:
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - You need to get re-fitted and get a new bra every six months
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - hand wash to preserve it, if you machine wash it often you will definitely have to get a new one sooner
Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - build your 'foundation wardrobe' - get a white, black and nude to start and then build from there.
My Take:
I love the One Smooth U collection, just remember these are lightweight and while they are supportive, you may not want to wear them under your sheerest fabrics or if it's super cold if you get my drift! (Especially if you are 'super-endowed' like this butterfly!)
Do you have a favorite bra brand? Please share what it is!

I'll have to send this to my GF. She's all about stuff like this.
ReplyDeleteHuh, I've never heard of this brand before! The bras looks SUPER comfy though!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a really nice brand and bra! I will have to see if my store carries it! Would love to try it on.
ReplyDeleteI used to be completely loyal to Victoria's Secret but now feel that I still can not achieve a fit that is both flattering and comfortable. I need to check out this brand!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever purchased a Bali bra before. I will have to look for them.
ReplyDeleteHahaha, I love your tip about being refitted every 6 months. Is that because we can get a little saggy?! I'm quite lazy about hand-washing them, although I know it will help keep its shape.
ReplyDeleteOoh, I love the lace on it! I really need to go get fitted for a new bra!
ReplyDeleteThe Bali line is always what I gravitate for when bra shopping. Washing by hand is a great tip!
ReplyDeleteI've had several Bali bras throughout the years and I've loved every one of them. Everyone should be fitted on a regular basis.
ReplyDeleteNot seen this before.I will have o look for it.
ReplyDeleteI have not heard of them as well and I will be checking them out. Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteI definitely need to look into the Bali bras! They looks amazing for support. I had no idea we should check our bra size every 6 months.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite bra? Actually sport and any lace bra. I never tried BALI before
ReplyDeleteThank you for letting us know about how often we should get refitted for a bra. I thought they were okay until the elastics wear out. I will be checking Bali bras. They do look really comfy!
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time I heard about this brand. I am looking to buy sports bras. I will check this out.
ReplyDeleteI have been wearing the same bras for years and this is a great motivation to go get fitted and get some new ones! I'll be taking your advice!
ReplyDeleteI keep putting off getting fitted but I will make a point to get it done soon and then do some serious shopping after that!
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure what my favorite bra brand is anymore. I've been wearing nursing bras for the last 5 years so I enjoy them. I can't wait to look into normal bras once done nursing! - Jeanine
ReplyDeleteI'm long overdue for a bra fitting. I have smaller breast so I tend to neglect them with quality bras. I need to do better.
ReplyDeleteI love my Bali bras! I will admit to not knowing I needed to be fitted every six months. I just keep buying the same size as before. Oops!
ReplyDeleteI have been wanting to check out Bali for a while now. I am in need of some new comfy bras.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea that you have to get refitted for a bra every 6 months. Thanks for letting me know.
ReplyDeleteI love surprises in the mail! You chose a great one. I agree that you need the staples.
ReplyDeleteNo clue I should re check every 6 months, I went about 3 years without then wondered why such a huge change in cup size. Thanks for a great post, I will have to check out Bali.
ReplyDeleteI've had a few Bali bras in my time. I need to do the re-fitting every 6 months because I don't EVER do that. I really should though.
ReplyDeleteI'm so picky when it comes to bras since I have found that many brands don't offer the support that I need. However, I have always love the Bali brand!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the bra tips! It reminded me that I need to get refitted again, things changed over a year. ;)
ReplyDeleteGod I hate bra shopping with a passion, nothing fits right because my chest is so big, I hate it. The bra you picked looks lovely though.
ReplyDeleteI've been using the same bras for years! I could really use an upgrade!
ReplyDeleteMachine washing does shorten the life. I always hand wash.
ReplyDeleteI was just recently fitted for a bra. It has been years since i was fitted. I was surprised by what size i should be wearing.
ReplyDeleteI am picky with my bras too but I am all for finding a good one and buying multiple!!
ReplyDeleteI do have a favorite bra brand and it's a brand that I've trusted for years. I have their bras that I've been using for years and they are still a-ok.
ReplyDeletei ended up not getting my bra from Getting Gorgeous, the line to even talk to anyone was so long. I love Bali bras though, they take up about 75% of my intimates wardrobe. They are great quality
ReplyDeleteGreat tips. Bali is a great brand, and it's my favorite. They're great quality and last really well.
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of this brand but I definitely need to check it out! I'm pretty picky with bras and these look like they might just be perfect!
ReplyDeleteThese sounds like a nice Brand.I love a good Bra, Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI am a big fan of Bali bras. They generally have good sale prices and I can stock up. I have a Vanity Fair outlet store by me and they have wonderful products and sales, too.
ReplyDeleteAhhhh never heard of this brand before but it sounds fabulous!!!! These bras looks pretty comfy and I'm all about comfy these days :)
ReplyDeleteThat Bali bra looks really nice. My favorite bra brand is Lane Bryant - they fit me perfectly!
ReplyDeleteI'm in search of a bra brand, I haven't been giving my bras the TLC they need, and definitely need to be refit!
ReplyDeleteI'm in a need of a new one right now. haha! It seems like I have tried this brand before but I can't remember.
ReplyDeleteBali..that's a lovely spot we have back home in Indonesia and i miss it terribly :). I haven't tried this intimate but it looks great..
