OK, this is not the kind of bralette I would usually buy. Why did I? Because I was about to finalize an Amazon order when I noticed it had dropped to $5.65 in my cart. And I thought to myself: Self, why not? Because it is pretty. And it was a grim 10F outside.
Beauty
I find Josilyn to be very lovely. The lace has a luminous sheen that makes any skin tone look good. She also comes in sapphire and turquoise shades. The shape forms a portrait frame around your boobs.
Comfort & Fit
Not really the point here. Josilyn is purely for date night. The kind where you won't be leaving the house. Because there is zero support. Maybe less than zero.
But the lace is surprisingly soft. Not scratchy at all. There is a tiny-tiny bikini-style clasp at the top of the neckline, which means you can step into it and pull it on easily.
The 'band' is actually a 2" thick soft elastic, which is much deeper than that of the very supportive Tutti Rouge Eve. In Josilyn, however, the band runs quite large and the lace below is very loose; it's there for beauty, not support. It's a longline style, and they tend to bunch up on me anyway. I sized up to get more cup capacity, but I needn't have bothered. Coverage is not really the goal here.
You also will not be getting any lift whatsoever. Josilyn is really just a (very) pretty boob doily.
When Do I Wear It?
When I will be extremely active and want great shape and support. Hah! Kidding. No, I wear Josilyn pretty much at the express request of Mr. ComfyCurvy.
Size & Pricepoint: I went with the 3X and I should've dropped down a size to get a more fitted band.
The usual price is around $10, but I bought it at $5.65. You can find Josilyn here.
(That's an affiliate link, meaning if you decide to buy her too, Amazon gives me about 2 cents, which supports the blog hosting.)
