I was beyond excited to get this piece of lingerie. I loved the color turquoise and it looked like it would fit nicely. When I opened the package folded neatly in plastic nothing special or even mentionable I was really surprised. What the pictures didn't show was the sides of the lingerie, which is what makes this piece awkward.

From the pictures I thought there would be a slit, it's not a slit. It is an opening. Imagine a bra, with a triangle of fabric in the front and a triangle of fabric in the back. There is about three inches of just the understrap of the bra on each side that there is no fabric. It sounds confusing. Because honestly, it is confusing. I can honestly say I've never seen any piece of lingerie that does this. It means that there is opening on each side, not slits. I hope that makes sense.

So let's talk about fit. Because of the open sides, you don't need to worry about stomach/waist/hips. Really, the only fit you need to worry about is the bust. And let me say, it does not run true to size. The bust area was much smaller than advertised. I've got 36Ds so I got an XL. There is no way in heck that I would say that they fit my bust. If you are smaller chested then I would say these will be better fit for you.

The material is a mesh, it is translucent. Meaning it isn't see thru, but it isn't opaque. If you are a little self conscious this is great because it masks those little imperfections.

The length is a bit long, but really I wouldn't wear this for a long period of time so the length doesn't bother me. I'm 5' 1" so no matter what, these types of lingerie always drag on me. I'd say if you were about 5' 6" or 5' 7" it would be a proper length.

The panty is the usual weird panty included with lingerie like this. I'm sure if you are lucky they'll fit, but for me the strings are a bit tight and the fabric covering is a bit wide and long. I didn't buy the set for the panties though. I have my own thongs that work just fine.

Overall, this isn't a great piece of lingerie. It really all sits on the cut of the lingerie. It is awkward and no one wants awkward lingerie.

When I put this on, my partner looked at me like I had a second head. He didn't want to laugh, but that's what ended up happening. We both got quite a laugh at it. It just is weird. Which is a shame because the material and color is quite beautiful.

This is so weird. I mean, it is just awkward to wear. I tried wearing it a couple more times, but it never felt right nor does it look right/sexy. It looks funny. Which is sad, because the color is soooo pretty. Luckily the fabric feels nice and the care and keeping of it is simple. I just wish that the cut was different.
