    Best bra fitting I have ever had. Vicki was amazing and the number of choices for an unusual size was impressive.

    Omg, I love coming here. The service is the best, they treat you like you're their model for the…read morelingerie fashion show and they have to get you right for the show. In fact that's how I felt. The value of their lingerie is great for the quality of fabric you're getting. This is a place where a lady feels very much like a lady, and our beauty is paid attention to. If men need a gift for your lady, this is the place to come, just make sure you know sizes, the lingerie fairies will make magic here. Thank you for the experience.

    Beautiful shop but experience is VERY dependent on who is helping you. I've gone before and had…read morekind interactions with staff. Until... a couple months ago when I stopped in with my partner. I feel the need to preface this by saying I've worked in lingerie shops so I'm familiar with how sizing a client should go. When I came in almost immediately a woman approached me to tell me that I was wearing a bad bra (I had just had a weight gain so it was definitely the wrong size). She then, without asking, physically grabbed my arm and dragged me into a fitting room. She started touching my bra and tugging on me without making sure I was comfortable with this. She brought me a bra that was admittedly a great choice. However she stood there and asked me to take my clothes off, not even asking if I wanted the curtain closed (it was open) or if I wanted to be topless in front of her. I've been sized other places (even in Ventura) and I've never had to have my bare breasts out in front of the employees without active consent. I froze up to the point where she felt the need to rush me taking my bra off. Once she watched me put it on, she REACHED INTO the bra touching my breasts to adjust them instead of just asking me to do it myself. Again, never asked me or gave me a heads up, she just did it. The bra fit great but I felt really violated by the end of it. She even made jokes with my partner that made him feel very uncomfortable. I got the bra because I didn't have any that fit, and the associate at the register was actually very nice. I just left feeling really violated and disappointed. This is not a safe way to be handling people who could potentially have trauma related to their bodies. Unfortunately I will not be coming back again because of the experience with that one employee.

    ************REUSABLE SILICONE GEL PETALS****************…read more I hate the bra! I know most women do as well. It's constricting therefore annoying as hell. Its purpose is simply to cover. OK. In some sports I guess it serves as protection. But if I don't need it- i don't wear it. That's my motto that I live by everyday. In fact, most of my backpacking trips I am without it! I know one of its uses is for modesty or COVERAGE. I get that. So I searched high and low for something that will provide the same without the constrictive feeling all day. I used to wear this other product. Since I moved to San Jose I've been without them for about two years. I found a much better replacement since then! WHO INVENTED THE BRA? I wanted to know. I wanted to tell that person to go to hell :) So I read some more and found this info: A French woman named Herminie Cadolle was the genius behind the cups and straps. Cadolle came up with the concept in 1889, originally dubbing it the "corselet gorge." Her creation premiered at the Great Exposition in Paris and was a smash with the ladies, propelling the budding entrepreneur into a life-long career in lingerie. Madame Cadolle led a pretty amazing life. She was a very successful businesswoman in a time women rarely worked outside the house. Cadolle set up shops in Argentina and brought over the best French seamstresses to train her staff. She traveled the world, outfitting the rich and famous, while watching her business grow into a bust-ling enterprise. The company still exists today as Cadolle Lingerie. The REUSABLE SILICONE GELL PETALS will cover your nipples and it's invisible almost because it's the same color as your skin. So under your deep backless dress you can wear this babies. Wearing a tank top? You can wear this too and cover those 45 caliber bullets you have ;) AND they stick well so no worries about them falling off! Placing them is very easy and peeling them off is even easier. No residue or anything on your skin. I've worn them under a white top and no one noticed. After you wear them wash them with any soap. Air dry them and place them back on the container they came from to retain their shape and to keep them clean. I paid $8.89 for a pair and I've been wearing them for two months now. Well worth the money 10 times over! I bought mine from target in the lingerie section. What a surprise. I didn't expect to find this at all. Try them and I am sure you will love them!

    Although I may not be a big fan of bras, I will take one over this product any day. I used my first…read moreAdhesive Bra Saturday and when I took it off it removed a layer of skin with it. Now I wish a I could wear a bra and shirt that didn't stick to it the torn off skin area so it could heal and I could move on with life as normal. The 2nd worse part is it is going to leave a nasty scar and cleavage baring outfits might be a thing of the past if I can make this scar fade.
