In the mail the other day I received a package. Before said package was sent to me, I was very worried about it because of my modest nature. I didn’t think I would have the courage to write about the items in said package.
But today, I’m sucking it up and writing a review for my new intimate apparel items from Barely There.
Normally, I buy all of my underneath clothing from Victoria’s Secret. I’ve been shopping there for years so I know what I like and my sizes for everything. I was interested in the items from Barely There to see how they compare to what I’m used to wearing.
The 4 items they sent me were:
1) Invisible Look Bra (underwire) Retails for $35
This bra is comfortable although it’s not as invisible as I would like it to be. Seam lines show unless I’m wearing 2 shirts (which to be honest, I do quite often).
2) Ribbed A-shirt Retails for $26
Love this tank top as it’s perfect for layering which as I already mentioned I do a lot of.
3) CustomFlex Fit Panty Retails for 3/$25
Comfortable and no lines. What more can you ask for?
4) CustomFlex Fit Bra (wireless) Retails for $29-$34
My new go-to for wearing camping and around the house on weekends because it has enough support without the underwire.
My favorite thing about the CustomFlex Fit Bra was that I didn’t have to try and figure out what size to order. Barely There has this size lookup chart so instead of having to pick a cup and band size, you pick between X-Small and X-Large. Very easy.
And because I didn’t want to leave this post with just stock pictures, here’s me wearing the tank top and the invisible bra (but with other clothes, too).
Overall, I’m happy with the items and like them just as much as what I buy from Victoria’s Secret (except for the one little complaint I mentioned above).
The Barely There intimate apparel items can be found at stores such as JcPenney, Macy’s, and Kohl’s (check out there Where To Buy page for more locations). Also, look for the company on Facebook and Twitter to see what they have going on.
So tell me my friends, what product from Barely There would you like to try and would you be brave enough to blog about them?
Note, I was provided the items mentioned above by Barely There but I did not receive compensation. All opinions are my own as well the decision to use stock images for the products. You’re welcome.
Before, during, and after the writing of this post I may or may not have had some of the drinks from this Collection of 4th of July cocktails we have featured at One Martini.

I’ve gotten so used to wearing bras with under wires that I would probably try the cutom fit flex bra just to see if I like it or not. And yes, I would write about it on my blog… and use stock images!!!

I also wear underwires so it was a really nice change to have a bra without them.

I would love that tank for layering!

That’s what it’s perfect for.
I guess I need bras the most, right now. I have blogged about my underwear before in an unofficial capacity. So I absolutely would blog about it.
Is CustomFitFlex Bra only available up to cup size C?

Looking at their site, it seems that the CustomFit Flex Bra goes up to size D although it doesn’t show that on the chart.
These sound super comfortable!

I’m all about the comfort… and you know me, I’d model all of them. I have no shame.
Also, the custom fit flex would be a nice addition to my collection of misfits. I’ll try any bra once!
You are my hero.

If the panties really are no-line, I would love to try them. I hate leaving the house with pantylines, but I have a hard time finding ones that don’t show. Also, that around the house bra looks super comfy!

I haven’t had any panty lines from these and they work with great white pants.
The no line panties and the tank top. And maybe the underwire bra. I am constantly wearing tanks!

I always wear tanks in the summer too. It’s too hot to wear anything else.

As long as I don’t have to provide pictures of myself wearing some of those items, sure, I’d blog about it!!! Thanks for sharing. I HATE bra shopping with a passion but just did it on the weekend because I seriously needed new ones and found a great sale.
These do look like nice products… I’ll check them out.

I’m not a fan of bra shopping either so I’ve always stuck to the same kind at V.S. But I’m glad I decided to venture out and review these products. I’ve been happy with them so far.
I have to say, your boobs look pretty good in that shot.
What a fun package to receive. I have always wanted to try Barely There undergarments. I am really into trying to find the perfect comfortable workout underwear right now and would definitely try theirs out and write about my experience.
Thanks for the review.

Well, thank you.
I’m happy with my Barely There products so far. I haven’t worn any of them for working out but I would think that the underwear would be comfortable.
I’d love to have a tank top like that
. Lately, I’ve been layering too.
Happy 4th of July to you
