Am totally in love with STMI and I have always worn the ladies racerbacks and know the fit of them quite well until today….. received the light smooth cover racerback tank yesterday and I should’ve read the fine print as I didn’t realize it contained a built “bralette”. Suffice to say this is definitely NOT what I expected. I had to have a good laugh as I told Mrs Redneckchinadian that I am “budding”. You ladies amaze me how you can figure out topss like this as I even struggled with getting in properly. Even with the pads removed, I am quite certain I do not want to have a “bra” band that is quite visible through the tank top. The color and fabric are wonderful but too bad they don’t make it without a built in bra 😂. Suffice to say I'd make a terrible female hahaha.

lol I try hard to not take my life too seriously. Have some fun with it and if it doesn’t work then I can’t say I didn’t at least try :)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

As a lady, I laughed just as hard at myself as I tried it on with just about the same results as you 😂😂 I wanted to love it so bad but it just looked so not good 😭

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I think if I was even 10 lbs slimmer (and I have lost a decent amount of weight lately) that this top might have worked but the “dad” stomach, the light color, visible band and small boobies just make this awful. I’d reconsider a smaller flat cup insert would make it less obvious but I ain’t holding my breath.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

I think the light color was the biggest fault which unfortunately was what made me like it the most, I found them on markdown at a store in white and strawberry milkshake but had to return. I love smoothcover fabric though!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The struggle is real haha! I totally feel your pain, friend!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Seriously I was a tangled mess lol. Gotta admit though it is a comfy top hahahaha

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You have great shoulders, I have to say! Totally get the sizing surprise, anything with a built in shelf bra fits 1-2 sizes smaller than the typical tanks & shirts at lululemon 😅

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Thanks! That's good to know for sizing but I'm sure I won't be rocking any more tops with shelf bras anytime soon. While entertaining, it was also borderline traumatizing to get it on properly. All in good fun!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Hahaha, oh my, I love this. Thank you for sharing! You seem so confident and comfortable in your own skin.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

thanks friend! I figured that if I'm gonna look silly in lulu that I may as well share with my fellow lemonheads :) As you and both know, I've been here for a long time so those that do know me, know my style and my willingness to experiment. While I'd like my body to fit lulu perfectly like how it does for so many of you but alas this piece does me NO justice. At my age, nobody truly cares because I certainly don't so I may as well have some fun with it! The Mrs. says if it can't be returned then I'll have to live with it and wear it like all my other tops and just hope that nobody I know notices lol

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I would just cut out the bra part 😅

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

I could do that but its probably easier for me to just return the top b/c it really doesn't do me any justice no matter what I do to it (or so I think that is).

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I skimmed your post history and I really enjoy your fashion posts! You have a knack for putting together colours.

I always love your posts, but I think this one tops them all! Haha

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

It’s because it is THE most ridiculous looking top ever. Moreso than my croppy top tanks that were also a tad bit of a fail. Those were at least salvageable because I would wear them with overalls for an intentional look. A tank top that gives me “ta-ta”…. Well what can I say. Should I feel embarrassed or a little sexy?? Hahaha oh man…

And so the transition begins

I love their tanks with bras and kinda wanna try this now. Do we think it’s like a/b cup or c/d?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Definitely an A/B cup but since this is a size 12 that I suspect the cups were sized to be match the size of the top. I am definitely no expert here but on the bra pad it does say 10/12 so I’d say A/B cup for someone that is a size 10/12. I have seen C/D cups in store on standalone bras and these definitely are not that.

I can't stop thinking about the Seinfeld episode- "A bra is for ladies. This is the Bro!" 😂 Hope you get something nice with the store credit. 😆😆😆

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Hahaha maybe one needs a “bro” hahaha that was a hilarious episode!

I bought a tank with a built-in bra and cut it out, and wear the bra I want under it. It fits better, too. Maybe that will help?!?!
