Royce Lingerie – Non wired sports bra review.

Black and hot pink piping is a vibe

Hello Divas. This is my second collaboration with Royce Lingerie and I’m yet to find fault with them. I don’t do dishonest reviews, even when I’m gifted a product I honour it on the proviso that my findings are genuine. So here goes. Now, sporty probably isn’t a word you’d automatically conjure up when thinking of me, so what is it about this sports bra I found so great?

Firstly, it’s cotton, secondly it’s non wired and thirdly its support ability despite being without wire is fantastic. There will be some skepticism around this I’m sure, especially for bigger busted ladies like myself but I can assure you this bra has been tried and tested by me. Because it’s cotton it’s recommended for low impact sports and that was the aim for me when trialling. I’m gradually adding exercise back into my health routine after being very sporadic in my approach previously.

The first test for me was taking it for a hike. I have a new walking buddy in the form of a french bulldog and he’s been spurring me on come rain or shine to get out walking. This week we walked for over an hour completing my target of 10,000 steps uphills and down steps and back whilst wearing Royce’s sports bra and I’ll be honest it felt weightless. That in itself is something that never happens to me. Usually when walking I get frustrated and uncomfortable if my boobs are bobbing around all over the place and occasionally slapping me on the chin. So you can gather that I’m very pleased to report neither was a factor.

The second test was when I tried Pilates. Now I know neither of these are considered high impact on the standard fitness scale, but when you have large boobs everything is considered high impact. I can honestly recommend it as both a weightless and comfortable sports bra that also looks great. Going back to the fact it’s cotton it absorbs sweat better than some of those awkward looking, shiny nylon sports bras that can leave you feeling like you’re boobs have been sweating inside a shell suit.

It’s classic black design with the hot pink piping really is gorgeous and as with all of their bras it’s understated without being ugly. It still looks great and I’ve even worn it as a tshirt bra just for the fact that it’s comfy and gives your breasts an uplifted and sculpted shape under clothes without the Mrs Doubtfire separation so oftenly seen with sports bras. In my honest opinion it’s a perfect design to base the future of gymwear around, so that us larger chested ladies can feel confident knowing we can get great support whilst still looking on trend.

Blossom Bra review ~ The comfort craze.

You might of read my previous post on my huge boob struggle. Trust me when I emphasise the word struggle and tell you that it’s real!

Fear not though my dear D-K cup friends, I bring you good news. Actually it’s fucking fantastic if I’m honest, the girls at Royce Lingerie have gone and brought out a comfort bra in big booby sizes, and wait for it….. it’s not ugly! That’s right, this cute little comfort bra called The Blossom has it all, (or not because there’s no underwire) and I’m so here for it.

I’m forever moaning about pain caused by non supportive bras, shoulders, back aches, underwire boob imprints and because I live with Fibromyalgia I also get something called allodynia where your skin reacts to non painful stimuli as if it is indeed painful, sometimes it can feel like I’m being scorched with a blow torch and this is particularly noticeable in the areas that my bra touches. Not to mention around menstruation when they’re so fucking sensitive it can feel like the lacey number I chose to look cute in, is giving me boob thrush.

Underwires are the devil when it comes to comfort but how do you get that cute cleavage thing going on without one? How do you get a lift without separation?

Well…. you buy a blossom bra that’s how. Check this little beauty out

Complete with central drawstring to get the perfect amount of voluptuous décolletage on show. It’s the perfect combo of sports bra and crop top with maximum support without losing style.

Honestly it’s so comfortable I am considering never taking it off. I’m wearing my sister size of 36H and it fits my usual 34HH perfectly.

I was lucky enough to be gifted this bra but truthfully I’ll be buying it in the other colours too because it really is too good to be true. This particular design also comes in a nursing equivalent.

As if there’s more good news, it’s only £36!!! Whilst this might seem a lot for ladies able to shop in Primark for underwear, for us chesty girls this is a steal. I’ve paid £65 for a bra before and it was ugly as ass.

Go on, treat yourself and your Bristols to a little bit of luxury and a lot of comfort, you won’t regret it. The girls at Royce are more than happy to talk you through sizing queries and they offer super speedy delivery too. You can find them on Instagram here @Roycelingerie
