This entry into Mimi's 44th birthday celebratory write-off is done on the Demi Bra with matching Thong Panty in White.

Let me start off by saying that, fortunately, this bra came in my size, (I usually have to make due with the size closest to mine). In any case, I found this particular bra to be fairly comfortable regardless of all the embroidery (which I usually find itchy). I honestly enjoy slipping this on when I'm trying to feel a little more sexy and a lot more dressy. This is a partial coverage bra (Demi) and gives a ton of support due to the super-powered under-wires.

One of the problematic features of this bra and panty is that it cannot be worn under any garments that have a smooth line or texture. It is far too bumpily and scrollie in the chest and above the butt area for that. I would recommend wearing this set under a nice, dark pair of blue-jeans matched with a thick sweater. (Perhaps a green sweater?)

I like the hook closure in back, it is sturdy and tends to hold up (no pun intended) decently. This particular hook closure is a double-hook. You ladies know what I'm talking about. I have had minor issues having the hook bend, but never with this particular manufacturer. I would, however, recommend that one should always re-hook and clasp their bras before machine washing as to not damage any of their other delicates. You may also risk having a stray hook catch on some element of your washing machine and tearing your bra all to heck. Kieli's tip: Just re-hook them before you wash.

The thong is a different story. I must emphasize that I hate wearing undies. If I can get away without, I usually do. I did NOT find these panties particularly comfortable. The embroidery was rough and the stretch-fabric isn't much more comfy than the thick embroider. I give this a comfort level of 2. (1 being sand-paper.) All in all, I'm going to try to remedy the ouchie factor of these by soaking them in conditioner and fabric softner. If anyone has a tip: PLEASE GOD, let me know!

The particulars on my set are a bra in 38DD and bottoms in L. (I have an actual butt, sue me.)

There is an identical set from VS that is reasonably priced at $34 for the bra (for D-DD sizes, $32 for less than D) and $14 for the thong.
