My posture is not the best (I spend my days slouched in front of a computer), and I have a lot of problems with conventional bra straps slipping off of my shoulders CONSTANTLY throughout the day. I went for a long time without wearing a bra at all, simply because every bra I tried was painful or annoying to wear. I felt a bit frumpy without any support, so I decided I would look for a bra that I can actually wear.

I can't stand underwire, because it tends to dig into my sides painfully. One day I had an idea that there are probably bras out there that attach in the middle rather than going straight down to the same spot on the back, and so not slide off my shoulders. I did some poking around on Amazon and discovered that the term for this style is "racerback".

And out of the racerback bras I found, this one met all of my criteria. No underwire, racerback, clasps in front to make it way easier to put on and take off. And I have to say, it works perfectly. I occasionally have issues with the straps getting a little TOO close to my neck, but not once have I had issues with the straps sliding off of my shoulders. It's super comfortable so that I can wear it all day without really noticing. The lace on the back is a very nice touch, and the fabric on the front is really soft against my skin.

It's honestly been about 10 years since I last checked my bra size (which was a 34B), and I've gained about 20 pounds since then. The medium fits me pretty well. I wonder if the large would fit better, but I don't want to risk wasting money on one that's too big for me.
