My Style Pill

Soma Intimates

Bras. Let’s talk about them. Often they are ill-fitting, too small, too big, old, saggy, itchy or scratchy. I’ll be honest, I’ve had my fair share of struggles when it comes to my bust size and buying bras because I developed a little earlier than my friends and was on the larger cup size at a young age but still was fairly petite. And when you are short and small with a big bust, it can be a bit difficult to get dressed and feel comfortable. Does anyone else share in this issue?

 But now that I am in my 30s I have finally figured out what bras work for me and which ones don’t. Just to give you a little background on me…I work as a personal stylist and work with woman of all ages and body shapes so we talk about everything from clothing to bras to whatever else is on their mind, which has really helped me hone in on what women need. And, I’ve been featured in, as well as written a couple different magazine articles talking about this topic actually – dressing for your shape, which includes your bust size, and ultimately what it comes down to, is finding the right bra to wear under all the fabulous clothing that you hopefully will feel so good wearing! :)

 So, that’s where Soma Intimates comes in to play! My Mom bought me a Soma Intimates minimizer a while back and I was immediately hooked. It made wearing chunky sweaters, button down shirts and turtlenecks so much easier and more flattering. But I don’t always want to be wearing a minimizer – sometimes I want to wear a pretty bra with lace on it underneath my favorite tee or dress, so when Soma approached me to talk about bras and how important they are when dressing yourself, I jumped at the chance to be involved.

The brand is offering so many different options now – everything from lace to patterned t-shirt bras, age-defying and strapless bras. I decided to style their Enhancing Shape Bra, which is like a classic t-shirt bra.

Instead of just wearing a v-neck, I chose a type of clothing that a lot of women are nervous to wear, which is anything stripe, since they are afraid it will make them look wide. I figured, if I can show how to wear stripes with a good bra, than hopefully I can inspire other to do the same!

So, first off, let’s go back to the Soma Intimates Enhancing Shape Bra I am wearing underneath this striped dress. I love it because it’s super soft, comfortable and very supportive. It helps lift you in all the right places and doesn’t allow any part of your breast to bulge out, yet isn’t stifling or restrictive. Plus another perk is that the bra has built in top shaping technology that eliminates gaps between you and your bra. As most women get older, or if if they have a child, they experience loss of tissue at the top of the breast, but this Enhancing Shape Bra combats that problem which is why it’s age defying. Pretty awesome, right?

Ok, so…the reason I chose this striped dress is because it could potentially make me look a lot wider across the chest if I wasn’t wearing the right bra, but with this Soma Intimates Enhancing Shape Bra, I feel contained, perky and very confident. I am not one to show off my bust line, but I think it’s important for a woman’s chest area to look feminine, shapely and well proportioned, which can be an issue if placed in an ill-fitting bra. You don’t want to have boob muffin top side, bottom anything anywhere, you know?

Anyway, needless to say, I am big fan of Soma Intimates and have been wearing the brand for years. They offer a variations of bras in sizes starting at at 32A all the way up to 32G and have a great selection of underwear, shapewear as well as apparel, sleepwear and swimwear! I highly recommend you all going out and giving the brand a try!

DIY time! I saw this shirt and immediately was dra DIY time! I saw this shirt and immediately was drawn to the color and fabric but didn’t love the ruffle hem so decided to remove it by cutting it off, creating an intentional raw hem. My friend @landonmcgregor did something similar with a shirt he found while vintage shopping and I loved how it turned out. I think rolling up the sleeves and leaving it open over an off white bralette looks so pretty and is perfect for the warm summer months. What do you think? Would you try it?

Before I dive into talking about the outfits in th Before I dive into talking about the outfits in this Reel, I want to take a moment and talk about perfectionism and how it can potentially foil the best laid plans…if you let it.

Here’s what I’m talking about: As I was looking back at what I had just filmed, instead of seeing two cute outfit remix ideas, (both based around a $4 top I scored at Goodwill), I only saw the shelves behind me with messy piles of pants, unorganized hanging clothing that wasn’t color coordinated, and the damn black hanger on the floor that is peeking into my shot. 🙄

It hasn’t always been like this for me when it came to sharing my content, but over the years, as photos and video on IG and online became glossier and glossier, and more picture perfect, I found myself pulling back and not wanting to share unless everything was neat and perfectly “in place” before stepping in front of the camera. 

Today, I almost let the fact that my new closet set up that you see here, (which I had only just put together) wasn’t quite set up the way I imagined in my head, keep me from sharing outfits with you all, which is why you follow me in the first place! Jeez.

Anyway, I know that this type of issue isn’t incredibly serious, but I know that I love it when other people
open up and share about little things that they are dealing with, because it helps me feel like I’m
not alone with what I might be going through. So if I helped you release any perfectionism that you might be holding onto, then that is good enough for me. Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

OK, now that I got that off my chest, let’s get into the really important stuff: the outfits!

Earlier today I wandered into Goodwill hoping to find some gems, and ended up leaving with this knit tank. I’m really pleased with it and love the color. It’s a dusty mauve and I immediately imagined paring it with my new bright purply-pink sleep set that I shared on here, yesterday. Then of course I had to turn the outfit into a remix and decided to try it on with my new white gauzy pants and some stacked sandals. All in all, I really am quite pleased with both looks! 

Which would you wear? 1 or 2?

xo,
Christine

They are high waisted, relaxed in fit and I will be wearing them until it becomes shorts weather, which is basically not until July. Because if you familiar with Seattle, you know we are about to enter into #juneuary in a week and a half. 😩
