The month of February just flew by! Between work and homelife, I barely had the chance to get to write. I did however find the time to order from an online service called Adore Me. Finding undergarments have always been a struggle for me. Ever since I filled out my upper body, finding a bra has been a nightmare! I'm a healthy 34DD - a size that varies by brand. It's near impossible to find my size at department stores and only recently have I seen it more regularly in places like Victoria's secret. At the end of the day, the styles make such a huge difference in the support and honestly, the amount pain your straps have caused you by the end of the day (something VS needs to work on). The only brand I have found to work well so far is Panache Lingerie. As I mentioned, my friend suggested Adore Me. I was immediately excited hoping this could be the answer to my bra shopping woo's. The first great thing is that when you sign up you receive a VIP membership with which for your first purchase (be it a set of bra and panties, lingerie, swimwear, etc...) is $24.95 with free shipping both ways. The catch? There's a timer, so you have 1 hour to make the purchase or the offer goes away. Here's the deal with the VIP Membership - which is what you sign up for when joining the site. Perks - 1. You get $10 off any set at anytime! 2. Every 6th set is on them 3. Free Shipping and Free Unlimited Exchanges 4. First set is $24.95 - which we mention above. But again, there's a catch. The be a VIP member there are certain requirements. If you don't follow the requirements you will be charged $39.95 in store credit that can be used anytime. 1. Visit the showroom, that has been customized to your preferences, between the 1st and 5th of each month 2. Then you would would need to "shop" or "skip" that month. They will also send you a reminder email so that you know your showroom is ready to be viewed every month. Alright! I decided to go on and use my promotion offer to see the product itself was worth all the hype. I ended up being very underwhelmed. I ordered a bra and panty set that is normally priced at $49.95 ($39.95 VIP) and it was so cheaply made I didn't even want to bother wearing it. I compared it to some of my cheaper VS Pink Bra's and found the quality to be inferior to those of VS. I wanted to wear it and not judge the book by it's cover, but found myself to be uncomfortable all day. My lady bits didn't stay in place, and worst of all the straps kept falling off even after adjustments. In my opinion, the product itself is pretty, but if you're a larger size like me - it's probably not the right (or most comfortable) product for you. The VIP requirements seem simple enough, but it just won't work with me. Here are my reasons why: - I probably won't receive the email reminder, because i have reported them as "spam" in my gmail box. The company literally sends an email EVERYDAY. It's excessive. - There's a really good chance I will not remember to log in EVERY month for as long as I have this membership to avoid being charged $39.95 per month. Overall, if you are a fan of online shopping and know you'll visit the site regularly AND if you're a small size and typically don't have trouble looking for underwear, then I think it will work for you. On the other hand if you're like me and inconsistent with your online shopping and struggle to find undies that work, take a pass.
