Fresh from oven! TTR Tropical Blooms Bralet in cherry pink, size M.

before i head over to KJ ytd. i had this ASOS corset in cart.

i was SO CLOSE to carting out at office on Friday. LOL. in the end, i decided to cart out at home instead, along with other orders from my colleagues. they ordered the geo peplum top too!! now 3 ppl in lab have the same top.

the reason why i am hesitating is because, i don know if the bust is padded. (i cant wear anything padded)
and i dk if i should get UK8 or UK10 since this is tight fitting. LOL. else, i would very much prefer this print. so dainty!

probably UK10. cause my TOPSHOP bralet is tagged UK10. i got the last piece in UK10 in cart ytd. but i didnt cart out and its OOS. so i cart again and have UK8 in my cart and then it went OOS again. LOL!!!!

then i saw this at KJ.
TTR Tropical Blooms Bralet in cherry pink, size M.

this TTR bralet has a longer length, which is more versatile than traditional bralets. bralets can only be worn with high waisted bottoms, unless you want to expose your tummy.

TTR version allows you to match them with shorts or high waist bottoms. or if you are fretting just because of your tall height, you are losing out to the other shorter girls who can wear a bralet but you cant, cause the proportion is wrong and you still expose your tummy even with high waist bottoms, TTR Tropical Blooms Bralet is your answer.

features a contrast yellow zip behind!
how to wear:

unless you can perform some really complicated hand actions by fastening the zip from behind, the easiest way is to zip from the front, rotate the top 360 degrees around. then you wear the straps.

Sizing:
i know what you all are thinking.
the ptp is only 15" as stated in the website. i am a 16.5" ptp, how do i fit.

for bralets, you wear them lower and its tight fitting. so you don follow your usual sizing.
LB bejou bralet is 15.5" at ptp, which is a little loose for me at ptp. comfy fit though!
my TOPSHOP bralet is a 15" ptp and it fits comfortably.

hence, take your usual size when it comes to bralets. don size up just because you wanna match your ptp to the given measurements! chances are, its too big.

from the pictures as you can see, the waist part is kind of loose for me. LOL. i am a waist 26"!
the measurements given fits someone of waist 28", which explains why.

in any case, if anyone should know, my TOPSHOP bralet is tagged UK10.
fits nicely at ptp, slight loose at waist as well. (:

Material: 
if you have the original TOPSHOP bralet, the feeling is exactly the same. with the sizing, boning and material. even the material. its has plastic boning all around, but fret not, its not as uncomfortable as the previous LB camilla corset.
